@ Beatuf1ful - Thinking of you! I hope the ultrasound shows you are all in the clear today .

@dragonfly23 I really hope it is our month! My due date would be hubby's birthday. Also, how weird is it that my son will turn 2 a month after your daughter and now I may be pregnant a month after your second too! Haha I'm feeling good about the Emerita. The Now brand is so greasy and requires you to apply so much. It also doesn't rub in very well. SO ecstatic you got to see a healthy heartbeat! It gives me so much hope.

@katyfootballmomma It's definitely worth a try! Once I researched it, I realized I had a TON of the markers for low progesterone ever since my son was born. So far, even if I don't particularly feel pregnant, I at least feel like my moods are more balanced than they have been in a long time!

@BekPlus3. I really liked the First Response 6 days sooner as I started testing at 8dpo and got a very faint line then I tested everyday leading up to my AF with the same brand. Good luck.

@SheRiskers. That's awesome that you will have the same due date as your hubbys. Pretty interesting to hear that your son will turn 2 after my daughter does. It put a tear to my eye seeing the flicker on the monitor. I brought my pictures with me and will scan them to the computer since I don't have a scanner/computer at home. I know the site doesn't allow us to post ultrasounds in forums but will see what happens.

Hi All! I'm 37 years old and trying for my first baby! I'm currently 5dpo, got a super dark OPK on Friday (2/16) morning and I swear I feel pregnant already - hopefully it's not just in my head from wanting it so badly. I found out I was pregnant last October (I knew at 3.5 weeks because I could smell everything from a mile away and I took an FRER and sure as sh*t it was positive... at a 10 week appt the dr tried finding heartbeat w/doppler and couldn't - sent me for ultrasound and baby was measuring 8.5 weeks with no heartbeat - devastated wasn't even the word, my whole world was CRUSHED, but I'm trying to focus on the positives and right now I am feeling pretty positive that I am pregnant again! That would be a MIRACLE! Only had 1 period since my D&C that was on Dec 6th, so I am hoping and praying that this is my sticky bean!

Anyone else a POAS addict like me? I already started testing even though I know they won't show up positive yet. My symptoms... tingling/larger breasts, bloated, gassy, moodiness on and off, exhausted and SO HARD to get out of bed in am, slight headache (always a sign for me), vivid dreams past 2-3 nights (I usually NEVER remember my dreams), pronounced veins in arms (another sign for me - usually can't see my veins unless I'm just out of shower or a hot compress on my arms), extra milky/creamy cm (usually dried up by now if AF is coming) and I just "feel pregnant". Would LOVE to have some TWW buddies! I usually have a 26 day cycle (not sure if it would differ after D&C, but it didn't the last D&C I had 2 years ago for another missed mc) which would make AF due to arrive on March 2nd...

Is there a ticker I can get that will show my dpo? I liked that one on the old CTP website...

That's okay, I'm just SO HAPPY to have found this group and all you ladies going through what I'm going through :) I know it will help me pass the time having you all to chat with! The TWW is the worst and I can't wait for at least 8dpo so my tests will be more accurate (yes, I already started testing because I'm a POAS addict!)

I'm so sorry for your loss xo I wish noone ever had to experience that! When is your due date now? You must be over the moon excited and I'm sure nervous after going through a loss. I was sooooooo skeptical and nervous and not even enjoying my last pregnancy, until I heard the heartbeat and thought I was in the clear...

Congrats dragonfly23!!!

I hope everyone is feeling good today! I’m estimated 9dpo since my opks were a little wonky and I haven’t been having symptoms up until yesterday when I noticed a lot of milky white cm, tired and crazy vivid dreams the past few nights. Today I’ve noticed weirdly that my Fitbit is saying my resting heart rate is significantly higher than usual. I’m usually 63-75bpm but now I’m at 90-100bpm when I’m completely at rest and not anxious. I don’t feel pregnant but do feel a little off. Still trying to hold off on testing until March 1st but I don’t know if I can wait that long. I’m trying not to get my hopes up and attempting to keep relaxed.

Good luck everyone, I hope this is our month!

Hi! Just got my BFP on Monday from a Wonfro — Just wanted to share that it took another three days to see it on the First Response test! I had a blood test the same day and my HCG was only 13 — doing the math, I was only 9DPO! FRER never seem to work for me. It only went positive the morning of my 11DPO and the Clear Blue Digital the evening of 11DPO. Hope that info might be helpful to the POAS obsessed (like I am)

Ok Ladies I’m kinda freaking out!! I haven’t been on here for a couple of months cause I just needed a ttc break. So, I’m on CD 30, 12dpo (AF due yesterday) feeling different this cycle so last night I did a First Response dip test and I got a faint positive line right away that just got pinker as the test dried. This morning I did another test and it was very faint positive but again the line was more noticeable and pink after the 10 min mark. I’m going to wait until Sat now to test again. I’ve uploaded my test from yesterday, can anyone tell me what they think? Been TTC since Oct 2015 with a MC at 9wks in June 2016. I’ve never once had an evap before. Please tell me I’m not dreaming!
