khartt - sounds promising!! too early to say yet, but looks positive!

chelseahuckabee - congrats on the BFP! hcg has to start somewhere, so your number is ok! when is the next test to see if it's increasing? i think the CB digi needs a level of 25 or 50 to be pregnant?

edisaster - congrats!!! major sticky vibes!! hope the blood test is good!

hisladybug - no O yet?? typically cycles get longer if there is no O and/or it's delayed. i would assume if no temp shift that you haven't O'd.

skelly - sorry about the headaches :( it'll be so worth it if a baby is causing them!!! glad that weird bleeding finally stopped! never used that brand of HPT, but i'll steer clear of it!

vettech - LOL and i thought i was bad at early testing! i forget if i started at 7 or 8 DPO last cycle, but i was excited to also get my IC HPT's in the mail :) we're very close, i'm at 4DPO today! also i recommend starting BBT during your period. you probably know to take it first thing, asap in the morning, while still laying in bed, and want at least 4 hours of sleep prior, and ideally the same time each day :)

beatles - haven't seen them in a while :/ but hiiiii to you also :)

jfh - welcome! lots of baby dust to you guys!

ladyvein - i take it AF showed? boo :( you gonna go see the doctor?

xoxocouture - a creamy, lotion-like CM is what's typical in the TWW because of the high progesterone levels.

dbirdie - wow that is a high hcg at that timing! nice!! i have no experience with a positive so i'm not helpful. hope your scan went well today!!! please update!!!

babydust85 - we're officially the same this cycle :) i also typically have O pains when i'm trying to get BD'ing done at that time! hope you did catch that egg! i will start testing early though because even if i caught a CP, i would be so excited i'm capable of even that (i've never had a BFP in 1.5 years of TTC). you can live vicariously through me ;)

namsmoms - yeah don't worry too much if nothing exciting is happening, as you said, many get a BFP with no symptoms!

hopefulmamma - sounds very promising!! hope you get a BFP!!!

mrsrabren - have you tested again to see if that shadow turned into a BFP??? i hope it does!! i've had dizzy spells in past cycles but no BFP for me then :(

runnermom - awesome!!! did you do any labs for the doc yet??

runnermama - you can definitely test! if you get a BFP, then yay! if you see a BFN, no worries yet, since is still early!

ameejo22 - exactly! thanks! time needs to go faster in the TWW!

shelby15 - typical LP is about 14 days. so if you O'd by CD20, i'd expect AF around CD34. if it comes earlier than that, you may have a luteal defect, especially if you get AF CD30 or earlier.

12princess - glad the hcg levels are looking good! sticky vibes to you!!

mrsbogie - sorry you're out for 2014 :( lots of baby dust in 2015!

sweety1010 - if you hate BFN's I'd say wait to test until well after AF is due.

pagers - i really hope it's implantation bleeding! i had brownish spotting appear about 8DPO once cycle and i figured it had to be that, but then stupid AF was in full force by 10 or 11DPO, was very mad :(

barely there - :( yeah you may want to call your doc!

AFM, 4DPO. having my normal symptoms of high progesterone, which are mainly very sensitive nipples and very tender bbs. today DH and I noticed by bbs were noticeable bigger, but that has happened previous cycles too. difficult to judge CM when on progesterone supplements since they are also white and eventually leak out (sorry). was exhausted yesterday, but i did have to drive 5 hours for work. went to bed at 7pm, sleeping by 8pm, got up at 6:15am :) by 2DPO by temp was super high! dropped down a little bit today, but also my temp was taken on the earlier side than my normal.

chelsea- it just means that you probably implanted at 5-6 dpo. Remember hcg doubles every 48hours so you are right on track!

First: haha yeah I guess I just have a hunch that we finanlly have done it and I'm just impatient :)

Thank you guys for the encouraging replies. I retest tomorrow with results read on Thurs. I will update. Hoping you guys are right and I am on track!!!! Thanks again..

Chelsea: Congrats on your BFP ,

Thanks for the hope firsttimemommy:)

as for me i am at 8 dpo, had a surprise nausea attack today morning on empty stomach, felt weird. Slight cramping down there with yellowish CM once a while. Not sure wht tht means, keeping FX'd.

So yesterday thought AF was coming early just because all my symptoms i've constantly been having were just not really there the only one i really really had was i was extremely tiered. Then today i wake up and felt nauseas (for the first time in my TWW). So that i'm still on track.

May test tomorrow morning even though it is a little early hoping to get my first ever

Vettech and firsttime, doubt it will be HCG with all that bleeding I had from ovulation, it was like a full blown af, however temps didnt dip. Have changed my drinking options, instead of ten million coffees a day im on herbals instead, Was tinking headaches could be my caffine withdrawal! lol feeling better today though... hopefully a headache free day.. will know by lunchtime as thats when they tend to set in... x

Thanks a lot for the reply

Dunno how you ladies do it....I'm in my TWW period and I'm now 6 dpo. I am literally going insane...and jotting down every single "symptom" I feel on a daily basis....
