Our Journey Part 9: Success, Setbacks, and Hope!
There have been successes, sadness, setbacks, but the biggest theme has been hope and prayers for our fellow sisters.
Welcome to Part 9. Here's hoping that we all find our BFP's before the end of this thread!

Good to hear from you Karen!
I'm generally symptomless at 7dpo. With my one successful pregnancy, I didn't have a single symptom until I was about 6 weeks along. I do remember having AF cramping at about 4 weeks, though I didn't know I was pg for another week. With the ectopic, I had sharp cramps after about 4 weeks, and with the chemicals I had some sharp localized cramps that came about 10ish dpo. I was convinced AF was coming with all three of those pgs. I did have some IBS type issues with the ectopic at about 9-10 dpo. I got my BFP at 10dpo.
I really try not to read into any symptoms because I've had them all, usually when I'm not pg. I'm hopeful for you though! Good Luck!

Hi ladies
Sorry I haven't had time to post. I check in often though. I've been super swamped with getting the house and baby's room together (which is still not finished). Just left the dr office, they said I'm 1cm dialated and 30% thinned out. He also said that after another week if I go into labor on my own then they won't stop it. Hope all is well with everyone. I will try to write individually later on. Praying for you all.

OPK's pick up HCG as well as LH, so they will show two lines if you are pregnant, however, a lot of women have some LH in their system all cycle long, so they aren't a definite indicator for a BFP because they can have two lines even if you aren't pregnant. I've had opk's with two lines near the end of my cycle when I definitely wasn't pregnant. HPT's are the best to use to avoid confusion.
Give it a few more days and take an hpt. I've got my fingers crossed for you Karen!

Ladies please check out my HPT pics in the "unsure" category. AF should have been here Friday, but it wouldn't be too odd if she came today since I'm on Prometrium.
Took a FRER test last night & got an EXTREMELY faint second line. Clearly pink though, and there within 3 min. DH saw it too. Took a Wondfo test & it was extremely faint. CBE digital said "Not pregnant". The original Wondfo test darkened nicely by this AM. The original FRER only darkened a little.
Repeated both FRER & Wondfo with FMU today, again both EXTREMELY faint.
I had a +OPK on 2/3 & by 2/4 the dominant follicle was gone.
Please take a look at my pics & tell me if I'm crazy for seeing a 2nd line.
