@ dragonfly - I'm sorry you had a bad night last night. Emotions and life situations can certainly affect our cycles, but even if it does you will still ovulate. Sending you lots of happy vibes and hoping today and tonight are better for you.

@dragonfly23 I'm so sorry you had a bad night. I definitely have been feeling that way on and off so I understand where you're coming from. This is a strenuous, emotionally draining process that is for sure. I hope you start to feel better!

Thanks for the tips ladies! I am going to try and get the ticker lol

@FlamingoGirl13. Thank you for your kind words. I can use all the love I can get.

@Pearl_325. Thank you! I am sure as time goes by things will get better. It was easy and done in a matter of minutes. To add it to the forum you will have to go to Manage my Account and then go to signatures and then copy the link on there.

Got it! How fun! Except this says I am 11 dpo because i dont know my exact dates. I think I am more at 10 dpo.

@Pearl_325. I think you can go back in and change it. I don't know my dates either but just used what was my norm before. I think once I get a positive OPK then I think I will change it.

pearl325- thank you i hope those lil sperm made it, and something is happening! i like using that countdown ticker to see where i am at. glad someone helped you.

dragonfly- i have been there before we all have our down days. If you just need to vent we are here.

flamingogirl-Good luck on opk's happy to hear you will start using them soon.

Katyfootballmama -Happy Thanksgiving!!

A STORY: we took Family Pictures recently and DH looks at me and says would it be great when looking back at these pictures and tell our soon to be baby that you weren't physically here but you were there in mommies tummy!! i smiled so i know more and more he wants a baby and its so heartbreaking when we get a neg every month. Staying Positive!!

@Beaut1ful38 That is so cute and would be a great memory to have forever in a frame! Last night my DH and I were talking about putting our tree up and every year we have a romantic night together with Christmas music playing and decorate and make a fun Christmas martini that we drink all night lol. I said last night that if I am pregnant we wont be able to do that this year and he said he would be excited in a different way because technically we'd be decorating with our baby! It was so cute. But then i felt the exact same way you did. It is depressing when it is negative every month. Fingers crossed these stories come to life for us this month!

pearl325- Ooooh that is a cute story too!! we do our family Christmas Tree Decorating but with hot chocolate, cookies, and end in a Christmas movie, (mainly bc i have kids already) BUT i know when the kids baby ornaments start rolling out im going to be crying and mixed emotions will hit.

hear is to everyone: and

@Beaut1ful38 since you have already been through this here's a question for you..I am feeling so sick today. Slight cramping and on and off waives of nausea and hot flashes. almost feels like i have the flu and then it goes away. Did you ever get that? This could also be AF getting ready to show but fingers crossed that is not the case!

@Beaut1ful38. Thank you! I know everyone has their bad days. I just worry about stuff that I shouldn't even worry about. Making assumptions that aren't true but at the same time are they. My husband always tells me not to worry about things but I tell him what's on my mind and he doesn't say anything and just tells me not to worry about things all the time. I thought a husband is supposed to lift you up when you are down and fill the void that is missing in your life. In the past, I am so used to walking on eggshells that I can't seem to get passed the fact that he is here to help me and not complicate things and I am having a rough time realizing that and I don't know how to voice my own opinion. I just feel lost with my life. We haven't had a date night in a very long time so that may be the issue. I think it's cute that your husband is thinking down the road and saying there is a little baby in there but I agree, seeing a BFN every month is a stresser and trying month after month is very tiresome.

On a side note, Friday is my day off and haven't got to BD in awhile as saving it up for the most fertile time and when OPK shows a positive. Plus he hasn't drank in awhile so that should help his swimmers find their forever home.

ETA. Think I might have a cold coming on as my nose is running a bit and sneezing. Would it be okay to take Neocotrin before Ovulation?
