@Holly860- I hope your temps are a sign and you get your BFP on Friday! I have never checked my temps although I am going to start to tomorrow. I know it won't help me this cycle but hopefully if AF does show up I'll be in the habit already.

@Prayingfor1. OMG. I asked a question in the Q & A and it was almost like fate. Check it out under Breakthrough bleeding. I have hope and am about to cry; not from being sad but from Joy.

@dragonfly23- Yay!!! See hold on to hope!!! All is not lost!!! Give it time. You just can't know yet.

Also, I noticed earlier that I have developed blue veins on my left breast, they were most definitely not there yesterday when I was looking! And when I just brushed my teeth I spit out a small amount of blood which never happens unless I ate something too sharp.

@Prayingfor1. See, we can still be in the running as those are also pregnancy symptoms. I am not giving up till I see clots (tmi) but man I really hope the office can't smell me as it's embarrassing lol. Bleeding as gotten lighter; I think. Won't know more till the night/days progress. I'm still nervous though.

@dragonfly23- That would be my point to give up hope as well. I hope it has gotten lighter! Keep me posted! Also, lol I'm sure they can't smell you. That's paranoia talking lol.

@Prayingfor1. Yea definately paranoia but it's there lol. What should I tell my husband as I wanted it to be a surprise for his birthday (Aug 7)? He has been sick too so I wonder if guys get morning sickness as well. If he is feeling a lot better today and wants to BD, then what do I say? Sorry honey, not today??

Darn, I just remembered. With everything that was going on today, I forgot to call the company about why the tests ran. Guess I will keep on testing and will call them tomorrow some time.

@dragonfly23- Maybe just tell him you aren't feeling well? Or be honest and tell him you are bleeding and then it would be even more of a surprise if you get to tell him you are pregnant? I'm not sure what your usual protocol is on stuff like that so I'm not sure lol

@dragonfly23 Don't lose hope, I wouldn't if I were you. My experience thou, with the chemical pregnancy was somewhat like how you are having your spotting. I had a lite spotting at 10 DPO with a very faint positive, then another very faint positive on 12 DPO and a negative at 13 DPO. No spotting for 2.5 days, then some more spotting at night on 13DPO and during the day on 14DPO. AF finally came strong at night on 14DPO, bleeding for 2 days only (I usually bleed heavy to medium for 4 days) and that was it.
I really hoped I was having a breakthrough bleeding, but on 14DPO it was spotting anymore, it was AF showing her face. Anyhow, I don't want to discourage you! I would keep hoping it is breakthrough bleeding until I see clots.

As for myself, still hoping. I'm 9 DPO today, no symptoms, just tired as always and nauseous early in the morning for the past few days. Sometimes I feel nauseous when I get up from not sleeping enough or because the alarm scares me and it upsets my stomach. Weird this time is that I slept normal these days, and I have been waking up without the alarm (body is getting used to temping as soon as I notice I'm moving). I also feel very lite cramping right now, but it is probably because I'm freezing in the office.
I'm staying positive thou, maybe this is my lucky month. Haven't tested, will maybe do it tomorrow.. I have been so crazy busy at work that I haven't had a lot of time to think about testing, which is great.

@gabiperes- If you do test tomorrow I will be wishing you luck!

@prayingfor1 Thanks! I need to find some courage to do so! lol. I read you will be starting temping soon, let me know if you have questions. I has helped me tremendously as I thought I was having annovulatory cycles. And yes, your temperature can change a lot if you sleep or even temp with your month open, it happened to me. I guess the rule of thumb is, if you are going to open your mouth, then always temp it with it open. Same with the side of your tongue where you place the thermometer, always put on the same side.
My temps are still high at 9 DPO. Last cycle it only came down the day after AF showed up...

@twinkle16 - I am sorry you are having fertility problems. What are the hormone imbalances doing to your reproductive cycle?

I still have another cycle to go, before DH and I go check ourselves with the fertility specialist. I promised him we would wait one year, which will be October. I am scared, but we will do what needs to be done. Have no idea what will cost, anybody has cost of fertility treatments to share?

Ladies with BFPs, any symptoms you would like to share with us?
