@Eulalie - I want to start testing at 8 DPO so bad, but I told myself I'd wait longer! I hope this is your month too! I bet it's hard being away from DH during this time. 4 days is great though!

@NovaSummerstar - I'm 4 DPO today too! when are you gonna test??

Well I have to admit this morning was very exciting for us!

I have very light spotting today, and a BBT dip from 98.01 to 97.63.... 5 DPO is a bit early for implantation spotting, but I haven't had spotting between periods since I was in my teens! (34 now)

I'm going to take it as a sign of good luck and keep fingers crossed...

Lots of baby dust to you all!

Regarding your question of testing- i tested about 9 times between the last two attempts and it felt so destructive staring at the negative test that I told myself this attempt I would wait until I 'DIDNT' get my period, give it a few days, and then test. However, if I'm actually implanting this early, I believe I can test around 10 DPO ... what do you all think??

My DH and I originally planned to have April be the first attempt, we rented a cabin on a lake and had a "conception vacation"- mostly because if I get bad morning sickness like my mother did, we wouldn't know when we would have a chance to vacation next.

This is a special time for me because of the symbolism of Beltane- the Gaelic holiday that focuses on...conception! How exciting for all of us!

I am 1DPO, and in my 2 week wait. Baby dust to everyone! :)

Nova - definitely a little early for implantation, but everyone is different! Def sounds promising along with the BBT dip. FX that it is for you!

lseekins - welcome and baby dust to you!

Thanks for the encouragement Mkh! I love the emoticons...how do you all do those??

welcome lseekins! 2 week wait is exciting and somewhat torturous! lol

Nova - anytime!! when you go to reply and the box comes up, look to the left towards the bottom you will see a pink link that says (show emoticon options) theres a bunch!...

lol sorry, had to get that out of my system

hahaha I guess you found them Nova!

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is doing well, and not completely losing their minds with the TWW. As for me, my temps have been steadily rising for 3 days now so I'll take that as O happened. At the earliest AF is due in 10 days, so I'm just going to try really hard to not test before then *unless* I get some strong symptoms. Good luck everyone!

Hello everyone! I'm going to jump in with you for this TWW. I am 9 dpo and my period is due in 3 days.

The hubby and I have been TTC for 6 months. We made some changes this month. We used preseed every time we BD and I have also been tracking my temps. I was able to tell that I ovulated April 26 (CD 16), and that I could possibly have implanted on May 4th or 5th.

Today, I had some serious pinching cramps on my right pelvis and some mild nausea in the middle of the day. Yesterday I also had a glob of tacky CM, but I checked today and there wasn't much there. Other than that, I haven't had many symptoms.

I am trying so hard not to get my hopes up or symptom check because it is so disappointing when shows up. Every month every tiny symptom I experience I think I'm pregnant, but this month, not as much is happening. Maybe that's a good sign! I have not tested yet, but I play to test tomorrow morning and see what happens.

Good luck to everyone!
