Megan_wynne, just see what today holds! Fingers crossed for you.

OverThinker, OH MAN, I do that every now and then too. I've never seen anything when I do it thankfully. It's still just as negative as ever. Keeping fingers crossed for you.

Sara, good luck today on your blood work. I'm sure everything will be just fine! Post updates when you can.

As for me, I *thought* I may have seen some pinkish/brownish spotting yesterday, but never saw it more than once yesterday. That would even be too early for IB as I was only 5DPO yesterday. 6DPO.

We'll see what this week holds.

I'm technically not supposed to test until this upcoming weekend, but we'll see if I can make that lol

Well now I have no idea what to think. I'm still spotting randomly, but had another BFN this morning, with no faint lines visible, and my temp dipped below my coverline. I feel like is coming and it's got me super down. I know some people don't get BFP until days or even weeks after AF is missed, but I really thought this month was it.

Good morning!

Overthinker, I'm really sorry about AF, but you know, you're never out until she shows, so you might not be out yet! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

I'm really excited to hear what's going on with you, Sara.

Good luck with your tests, Whatwill. Just remember if you do test before your scheduled date, not to get too disappointed if it comes back as BFN, and test again a couple days later. Good luck!

For me, tomorrow is the start of my tww. again. We've been BD every other day for the last 2 weeks ish. and let me tell ya, it's exhausting! lol I'm actually pretty excited about this tww. Now we can take a break and slow things down.

Jennabobenna,

I'm truly not expecting a thing. With DHs test results this month, I feel like we're going to have very little luck for these next fews months. He's making some great changes, and has done well these last few days, but those changes won't impact his sperm for about 3 months.

So I'm sure we'll be well into 2017 before a BFP shows up.

May be just as well because I don't want to be pregnant unless it's the sticky kind of pregnant.

Hi ladies. I've been absent for awhile as ttc was getting to me. I've been ttc for almost 2 years and my last hope before seeing a specialist was going gluten free. I've now been gluten free for 2.5 weeks and I finally got a line on 3 separate dollar tree tests today. I'm 11 dpo and I'm a little leary of the dollar tree test so I'll try a frer tomorrow morning.

Has anyone gone gluten free to see if that works? This is the first time were my boobs are still sore this late in the tww. My temps have not been a roller coaster and are still above the cover line and I've been getting hot flashes.

wow! mommy 2017! That sounds great.. keep us posted on your results

I have not tried to be gluten free.. but it sounds like a good idea!! I am including more fruits and vegetables into my diet as well as exercise. Hoping it works for both of us!

Mommy 2017, my old doc mentioned that I should give a stool sample for a gluten test. I moved away from that area though, and just never followed up. He mentioned gluten (if there's an allergy present) can really mess with the reproductive system.

Baby dust to you! It sounds promising, be sure to update us when you can! ????

As for me today, boobs feel a little different. Had a mild headache yesterday and feeling like I may be getting one now, but it very well could the crappy I air I'm breathing in my office. Construction guys are working on our ventilation and duct work.

Other than that, I feel thirstier than usual, and I'm 7DPO. If my luteal phase lengthened this month due to FertilAid, I hopefully won't see my period in 3 days. 9-10 days is my average LP.

If I can lengthen my LP, I'll take that as a success for this month! Still not due for an HPT until this weekend.

DH is on Day 5 today of Nicorette. He has cut his smoking in half, if not more, these last several days. I'm so proud of him. I try to tell him everyday.

How is everyone else doing?

Hey Everyone! I'm at 14 DPO/CD28 and no AF yet. My spotting has seemed to stop so I'm really hoping that maybe it was IB and I'm just one of those people who will get a BFP really late or something. My Temp shot back up to 98.13 this morning, above my coverline so hoping yesterday's temp drop was a fluke measure. BBs are sore, headache, backache and random cramping. I usually have a 28-30 day cycle, so really hoping that AF doesn't show up on Thursday and if still bfn, I have my blood test scheduled for Saturday. I'm trying not to stress as I know that's not good.

I keep having mood swings too. Every other hour I'm sure that I'm NOT pregnant, then all of a sudden I'm super hopeful. Then back to the negativity. Regardless, still hoping this is my month.

Good luck and to all!

Oh an Megan, how did talking to the doctor go??

Hey everyone! I disappeared for a bit trying to take my mind off of ttc stuff, I'm at 6dpo today and not feeling a damn thing. I'm taking this as a good sign though because the previous 8 months I have made up symptoms starting at 1dpo so maybe the fact that I don't feel anything could be the sign? Hubs and I are both on day 16 of Fertilaid and thats about the only thing different we did this month compared to other months. Still used preseed during the fertile week and used OPK to pinpoint ovulation. DH's low sperm count is the only thing working against us, so hopefully he had a michael phelps in this batch thats busting through! :)

Hey guys been a crazy couple of days around our house.. i went to the er on Saturday to make sure me and baby were okay. I was just backed up sorry TMI - my levels were 250 then went to back to the doctors yesterday for blood draw and my levels were 850, and i have to go back tomorrow - mind you my obgyn is almost an hour away its not fun, but hey its okay. So hopefully my levels have gone up even more. I am so excited for this baby! I am just also not feeling good either morning sickness is kicking my butt haha.

Hope everyone is doing well and BFP soon for everyone!
