I'm feeling very chill about this TWW (more than usual). Which it always starts out like this and then *bam* cd 6 hits and I'm BSC. I am just hoping I can keep the BSC at bay because I really don't want to start testing super early and be bummed out over Christmas due to a bfn.
@Wingless00 FIIK (f$*k if I know). I don't temp, and apparently never turned a pos OPK. Same as @stephann85 I'm sure I have by now based on cp and CM. I don't know if the later EWCM had any meaning. My Wondfo's for next month are currently in shipment. 8 out of the last 11 days?! Damn girl, I might break a hip! ;-)
Fx crossed ladies. I am trying to put off test. I may test tomorrow by I have go to dh's work Christmas party and it would be more pleasant with alcohol
@laeberge3 So sorry. I hope you enjoy your vacation!
@allowachick How frustrating! I always had good luck with the wondfos, maybe a bad batch as others have said.
@Uhlease13 Date night Saturday too so testing then as well! (I'll be 12 or 13 DPO). H and I are going to dinner and then to see Andrea Bocelli --- for some reason, H (who is generally a real guy's guy and all about sports, golf and beer) is in love with Andrea Bocelli. I got him the tickets as a wedding gift because he hardly EVER comes to the US).
@SP128 Did you decide if you're testing or just waiting??
I had the urge to test tonight but H hid my HPTs and he's at a work dinner so can't bribe him to give me one

@oliveoil I may test on Sunday morning, I'll only be 12DPO so it may still be early. I'm supposed to get my period Sunday too. My cycles off the pill range from 27-30 or so days. Your date night sounds super fun. Enjoy
@Uhlease13 Fx that you are wrong. All about the positive thinking.

Well I'm officially out this cycle. AF arrived this morning. On a positive note, with the early arrival I'm thinking my cycles are returning back to more normal than wonky. So maybe this cycle will be the one! Good luck ladies! I will be checking up. Hopefully there are some BFPs! I'm moving on over to WTO
@Uhlease13 Sending some positive thoughts your way!
@oliveoil I also hide my tests (in the trunk of my husbands car)! Are you testing soon?
FX for you, @SP128 and @Hopefulmommy1980. Christmas parties are tough during the TWW. I have one on Saturday and will be DH's DD.
Alright cycle buddies, @amberruka and @stephann85, my temps, cm, and cp are all indicating that I ovulated and FF is telling me that I'm 5 DPO. I decided to stop testing with the CBAD because the blinking smiley face was making me go crazy and I didn't want to end up with a broken hip (thanks for the giggle @amberruka) with more BD. I really hope that the problem is with the test, not me, and don't know if I'll finish the box of tests next month. Hopefully this won't a choice I'll be facing!
Good luck to all of you trying to survive holiday parties! I'm just at home plotting about making a sign to post in my yard where my light up candy canes used to be, yelling at whoever stole them this morning
@allowachick that sucks!! Maybe they will miraculously appear back on your lawn (like that Christmas "Growing Pains" episode when the runaway stole all their presents...oh, am I dating myself? Hee hee).
We found a note in our mailbox. Our neighbor's dog tangled himself up in our candy canes and ripped them out of the ground, so they're going to try and fix them or replace them
But in other news, got so frustrated with the weird wondfos that I decided to use my last FRER, bfn. Not that I want AF to show up (and past of me still doesn't believe it is about to), but I'm sick of this negative test limbo
POAS last night at 11 dpo and this am at 12 dpo- positive wondfo. Pulled out the big guns this am to confirm and used a clear blue digital weeks estimator- showed pregnant 1-2. I'm cautiously optimistic given last month's CP tests weren't this dark. Emailed my dr to put in some betas for next wk so I can keep or (hopefully) cancel my HSG scheduled for the 27th.
13 DPO and got a beautiful BFP using internet cheapos. Going to the store to buy some different brands soon. I have no symptoms (except headaches and feeling thirsty?) so I'm worried it could end up being a chemical but I'm trying to be positive. I kind of have good feelings about this one.
It might sound weird but at 5 DPO, I had a dream that someone opened our door and was walking up the stairs into our apartment -- I woke up thinking someone was there because the sound of stomping up the stairs had been so loud. I felt like maybe that was our baby letting us know he/she was coming. I *know* it sounds really weird!
Now PGAL brain sets in, but trying to just enjoy this and not worry about what *might* happen. Will keeping testing at home and call my OB on Monday and see if I can come in for betas.
