I feel ya Momma. I swore I wouldn't symptom spot but here I am, checking off boxes knowing they are probably just normal things that I'm over analysing. With the stress of life right now I just really want this one thing to work out easily.

@momma and signap, I have said the same thing this cycle I'm not going to but I go crazy during the TWW and I probably will this cycle. If it doesnt happen this cycle I'm not going to try really for a Nov or Dec baby because I'm getting a promotion Dec 1st and I cant be out on maternity leave with the transition. I can make it work if I have an Oct baby but not if its November or December. Ugh I figure I would focus on my health and my SOs healthy during the next two cycles.

Hey ladies! I with you all about symptom spotting...I said I wouldn't at all. I legit have had so many syptoms and feelings so similar to my past pregnancy that I caved this morning and took a hpt at 9dpo... and lone behold within 5 mins I seen a very faint line....so maybe all these darn feelings are actually leading me to believe I am pregnant. I will test again Friday and see what pops up. Can you guys see the faint line? It is there in person for sure

@Brittany YAY! I hope this is it for you!

@Bug I totally get the taking some time off. I really don't want a December/January babe between the holidays and the likelihood my son wouldn't be here to meet his sibling right away. Hopefully we both get those pumpkin babies.

@brittany, I see something I cant wait to see it darker.

@signap. Yes a pumpkin baby for us both and forever one else.

@brittany I saw it immediately without even pulling my phone closer to my face. That’s a good line!!! Can’t wait to see it get darker.
I agree with everyone else. A November/December baby would not be good for me. Definitely not January. I already have two kids in January! So if this isn’t my month, I’ll be avoiding pregnancy for probably 4 months or so.

Yes, of course if it happens I will be thrilled and make it work with my job.

Thanks for your input ladies! I appreciate it I look forward to seeing what line progression i have. I will be sure to post here when I tsor my next hpt.

@sigkap I agree! I had my last babe on November 27th and I refused to have a December babe if we didnt get pregnant last time. I really wanted a babe closer to Halloween, but my SO wanted to start trying this month putting me at EDD of 10/1. I will take it though...cause I would get to take off from work before all the chaos starts.

@momma I was the same last time...I refused a December/January babe, so we were gonna take 4 months off. My insurance doesn't do rollover so that was another factor with being pregnant in 2 different years....I wouldn't do it

Sending lots of to everyone!!!

Ladies! I need help! Please talk me out of testing! I’m only 6 DPO tomorrow and I’m dying to test! I have a three pack of FRER tests and zero self control. Trying to hold out to at least 7 DPO.

@brittany, I definitely see a second line! Congrats!

@AMF I may not be the best to convince you to wait. I'm dying to POAS and I'm 6dpo today. And with Brittany getting a faint line at 9dpo and my neurotic symptom spotting it's getting harder and harder to wait until the 12dpo I told myself I'd wait until. But in all seriousness, 7dpo is so early and unlikely to be accurate if you really are pregnant.
