I'm in the same boat with wondfos....I almost always got a line(ish). At the very least I could always SEE a line. But then I would get clear BFNs on FRER. I trust them WAY more than wondfos. I hope it's a real line for you While!

1040 - SO AWESOME!!!!! I love ultrasound pics. It's amazing to see a little baby in there!

debby - I'm 7 dpo...and I just feel weird. Yesterday I had a lot of cramps that are similar to AF cramps, just not as intense. I'm not due for AF until the 31st. Hopefully that's a good thing for us!

I've used a few wondfos now and have not had the second line yet. But it does streak a little up the stick so it's been slightly hard to read, but have not gotten the faint line yet.

I'm only 8dpo, and although I know I'd get negatives I've tested with fmu every morning since 6dpo, and will probably do so until 14dpo or so. After that, I will wait until cd34/16dpo if no AF as that has been my average cycle length.

So far, no really unusual symptoms. Except tonight I have been getting sharp pains in my lower left abdomen. It's so hard not to read in to every little sign, but I'm hoping this is a good sign and nothing serious. Any one who has gotten BFPs notice this around 8dpo?

Genie, I am 8dpo as well.. and started testing today! Of course negative. With my last m/c (I have had 2 since December) I had some weird sharp and short pains that eased up after a while. I carried to 10 weeks. I hope this is it for you! FX for your BFP!

I think one of the tests had enough of a defined line that it was different than the others, but it could have just been that one test bled more or something. I"ve taken more and that hasn't really been duplicated, so I think like you guys said, there's often a super light grey line there, or at least a shadow or something, and I think that's the problem with the wondfos. So now I don't know if I should keep using those or not. They are cheap, and so I can test freely on them, but I don't want to keep tricking myself.

UGH. I am so frustrated. I try to not think about it, but all this waiting and getting AF and waiting more and getting AF gets really frustrating. And I'm a control person, and I really have zero control in this situation, so it's really difficult. I wish I could just not think about it. I need to work on trusting God's timing.

Sorry to vent!

I guess there's still hope... AF isn't due until around Tuesday.

While - I know where you're coming from. I can't afford to buy 10 FRERs each month....so I use wondfos in the early DPOs, then if I see something I try a FRER. :-/

AFM - I had a temp dip yesterday, but it went straight back up. I'm not sure I believe in implantation dips...but if I did I think that could have been one. It was 0.5 degrees, then shot up 0.6 degrees this morning. I slept HORRIBLE last night. DS woke up 3 or 4 times, and DH finally got up with him at 7am. Even when I did sleep, I didn't sleep well. :-(

jennavee and while - I feel the same about the wondfos and FRERs. Last cycle I bought 2 sets of FRER and 1 set of EPTs, and they cost a fortune. So I figure I will test once a day with the wondfos and then use FRER to confirm a BFP.

jennavee - I had a temp dip the other day, and it's back on the rise again. I was sick with a cold this week (but no fever), so not sure if my temps were affected by that (this is my first time temping so not sure what my patterns are). I've read that reading BBT chart for implantation dips are not reliable as well, so not sure what to make of it.

I'm starting to notice more subtle possible symptoms - more cramping (though it does feel like AF is coming, but she's not due for another 9 days). The sharp stabbing pains have lessened, but they are still there occasionally. And some slight nausea has started.

It's so hard not to symptom spot. Kudos to the ladies who can do it and wait the full two weeks to test.

to and hoping for for everyone.

@genie - I so agree! Kudos to those who can resist testing and symptom spotting. How do you ladies do it? SEriously, I want some pointers!

@myluckyduck - own year mark. Ours is approaching, too. Funny how I didn't think this would be the way our road looked when we started. Hoping AF stays away for you!

AFM, the tricky thing about this cycle is that I have had consistent abdominal cramping, and even a little bit of lower back stuff, but I feel like by this point I would getting getting a positive if I was really pg.

Hi ladies
Still no clue if my chart is okay or no after a little dip yesterday n no spikes today. Don't think I had implantation dip...
Hope you all are doing well!!!
Baby dust !!!

It took just over a year, but I finally got my strong positive! Hang in there for those who are approaching the one year mark.

@genie I've been having sharp pains that you are describing since about 14dpo. They come and go. I looked it up yesterday and it seems a lot of women experience that around five weeks which is close to where I'm at now. Hope that it is a good sign for you!

Good luck @ Cristi! I hope everyone gets their BFPs soon

congrats ttcteacher! Excellent news!

Just waiting on AF. I'm on CD25, 12DPO. Haven't had the two weeks of cramping I had last month and the month before, but started having some pretty sharp cramps off and on today. Just ready to get AF behind me!
