Good luck mrsrabren! you'll be lucky catching the egg :)

Justkatsue, sorry about your bfn...it totally sucks seeing them...but it ain't over until arrives so am sending positive thoughts your way!

Afm, today I'm feeling like I'm definitely out...sore bbs this morning and absolutely nothing since...even the two zits on my face that I was trying to convince myself were a symptom are clearing up

Am kinda thinking I won't bother testing on Sunday and just wait for the witch to arrive on Tuesday.

Hope everyone else is feeling more positive than me today!

firsttimemommy - I have SLE but it's pretty mild. I've been able to get my flares under control with plaquenil, diet, and sun-avoidance. My rheumatologist thinks that my lupus could actually go into remission during pregnancy, so fingers crossed that that's the case! She also thinks though that it was the cause of both my m/c, even though my first one was years before I got diagnosed.

CD 19 still no signs of ovulation! This is painful! I can normally pinpoint the day, it's getting more frustrating with every passing day!!
Baby dust, just had to scroll back to find out more! Yeah I was 4 weeks 5 days at start of bleeding on mon 10/3, hcg was already back down to just 3 on the tues. Guessing it unstuck sometime over the weekend. This cycle is going so slow as Im so unsure of when I'll finally ovulate. Good luck to you!

Firsttimemommy30- I tested yesterday morning and got a BFN. AF is due today. TMI: used first morning urine so I'm sure it's legit. We're supposed to try one more month like this before we add an IUI into the mix.

Khartt- thanks for understanding. I'm glad I'm not alone thinking that. Hope your DH's surgery goes well sending you .

Crazydoglady- I was raised in a pretty conservative environment too. "SEX is bad!!!". I completely understand. When we first started ttc I was a huge symptom checker it ended up causing me to have pseudocyesis which produces weird hormones that caused fake pregnancy symptoms. So each month for the first 6 months I thought I was miscarrying. Be careful try not to psyche yourself out. Sending you lots of

Alright ladies, I need your advice! I took an HPT this morning and got a nice faint line. (You can check on my HPT images to see what you think.) I then took a digital clear blue test about an hour later and it read "Not pregnant." I really thought I was out this month after having next to no symptoms but there still might be hope!

Any advice is appreciated!

Slgamble I'm not normally this bad...I think maybe this month I am because of that silly gypsy prediction! I'll be back to my (reasonably) sane self in a few days!

Jlskaden, afaik I don't think the digitals are as sensitive. Plus the fr is a faint positive on fmu...leave it a day or 2 and test again on digital to give yourself a chance for levels to rise. I'd be very optimistic though :) fingers crossed its a definite positive

Jlskaden - your FRER is definitely positive, so I think congrats are in order :)

I think I just realized something...which still leaves me slightly confused.

CD21 Progesterone = 0.3
CD28 Progesterone = 7.7

I have no idea how long my LP is, but average is 12-14. If I OV around CD28, AF wouldn't have the possibility of showing until CD40, right?

Wish I could see that level now...I'm gonna go broke just trying to get knocked up.

jlskaden- Your FRER is much more sensitive than a digital. Give it a couple of days before the digital shows up positive. I'm sure everyone here who's had a BFP before can tell you they got a second line before a pos. digital if they tested really early. There is a line on your FRER, so I'm pretty sure that means what you are thinking it means! Congratulations :)
