Midnightrose, i was 9dpo on a walmart cheapie and it was pretty positive. Im sure i woulda tested + 7 or 8dpo, especially with a frer. With my dd, i tested the day of missed af and it was barely there.
Sheriskers, i should have numbers back in 2 days. I had nausea a few times around 3w4d-4w. My bbs are slightly tender. It comes and goes. Cant eat much cause nothing tastes good. Aversions?
Flamingogirl, way to hold out. I quit testing early in dec. I did test early this month because i had symptoms. Cigar smoke made my puke, my sense of smell on point. Cramping 6-9 dpo. Good luck!
I hope everyone else gets their bfps soon. Fx for all!

Hi everyone! I see some familiar names from this long journey! I have been on a hiatus from tracking (never stopped trying) for a long while. Still no bfp for us and we have officially passed our 1 year mark. Currenty waiting for AF to start. I am 1 day late but had a little spotting and bfn today so I am sure she is on her way. I officially made an appointment with my Dr for fertility testing which will be on may 2! Wishing BFPs & healthy pregnancies for all!!
Dragonfly & flamingo! I hope all is well with you both!!! Goodluck on your testing tomorrow Flamingo!
& Dragonfly, 13 weeks! So awesome! I am so happy for you!

This TWW is driving me crazy! I wish there was some instant way to just know whether you are pregnant. I am 4 DPO and researching every little thing to see if it may be a symptom.

@dragonfly23 I'm doing pretty well! I'm a little relieved it seems my symptoms have returned after a few days of seemingly fading. Still waiting for my first appointment at 6 weeks though. I read you typically start showing a whole month earlier with pregnancies after the first so I bet you have a real bumpie! Lol

@midnightrose3 I also tested for the first time at 8DPO and got a very faint BFP on a Wondfo. I don't think it would have been positive before and was truly shocked to see anything that day as it was! With DS, I got a pretty obvious positive at 12DPO but a BFN at 9DPO.

@Kelliria I totally get the possible food aversion thing! I think something sounds really good but when I actually make it, the smell is kinda turnoff and it never tastes as good as I thought it would. It's annoying but if it helps me know I'm still pregnant, I'll take it! Haha

@SheRiskers. I do have a slight bump but hard to tell sometimes and that is what I heard too about as a lot of people have been telling me that. When bloated, I look like I am 7 months pregnant and then shrink back down to a little bump lol. I'm sure your appointment will go well. Do you want to find out the sex of the baby? I want to find out but I'm trying to decide which route to take (be a surprise). Either by blood work or during the ultrasound. My motherly insticts thinks a boy based on eating pickles as to sweets in my first pregnancy and other symptoms I read online. Did you take progesterone this time around?

Dragonfly and sheriskers, i was wondering about showing too. This is my 3rd pregnancy. First at 13w, i had a mmc. Died at 7w. I was 110lbs and had a tiny bit of roundness. My dd, i was 120 and started showing at 11w. 8lbs9o 23 in. Now, i am way heavier than last. I never lost baby weight (having a baby at 38, i couldnt lose it). I am 145 and 5w today. I hope i dont start showing a month early cause that will be in 2w. Lol. I'm thinking since i am fluffier, i wont show like i did before.

@Flamingogirl! Thank you! Baby will be born thru a scheduled c section as I'll have a cerclage placed at 13 weeks so most likely late Nov!
@midnightrose I got my BFP at 10dpo which was super early for me. Last pregnancy I got the BFP at 13 or 14 dpo.
@kelliria those numbers look good to me. My hcg levels weren't even in the triple digits at 4 weeks. Same with my last pregnancy. And each time my doc assured me that it's the time it takes the numbers to double that they focus on more than the numbers themselves. And that doubling time looks normal. Please try not to stress out.

And congrats to all the new BFP's! @PPP020 and whomever else I missed.
To those still trying, take comfort in knowing that your time will still come. We've all been there and the wait is really hard, but once you get your BFP all the waiting will be a distant memory. Please keep the faith!

Hi all. Congratulations to all ladies with BFP.
Babybyrd23 I am on same boat as yours. Got AF from 5th Apr. Now doc have suggested for IUI in coming cycle.

All the best to all of you
Lots of

Shifali, i was going to do iui but had one more cycle of clomid to finish 1st. Didn't need it but that option is great. It gets the swimmers right up to the finish line. Takes the guesswork out of asking if they made it or not. It also gets there right at O time so that is good too!
Neomasie, thanks for the encouragement. I am so happy but scared! As with most expecting moms I'd say. I was thinking good til i had to get numbers again. Atleast i get to see them rise again!
