I haven't posted much, but I am 6dpo and have nothing but crappy sleep and vivid dream the last 4 nights, anyone else? lol

New here & wishing baby dust for all!

I had my IUD removed on 10/4 after having it for 8 years, AF came on 10/24, next AF was due 11/21ish but never showed. Took a FRER, very faint line showed up on 11/24, MC'd 11/26 which I attribute to low progestrone since my body got used to the IUD making it for it & hadn't gotten back up to speed.

Was told that AF after MC could take awhile, but she showed up 12/22. I've never had good luck with OPKs so I just use various calendars to get a rough idea, which I should have O'd between 1/3 & 1/7. DH & I did the deed A LOT during that time frame.

I'm a self-diagnosed POAS addict & bought AccuMed cheapies online (25mIU/ml HCG) & started using them on 1/11. I've also thrown in a few FRER around 1/15 & 1/18, but they have never showed anything but negative, not surprised!

I don't have much cycle data to go off of so I'm assuming AF could come any time from 1/19-1/26 (28-35 days), but I've been feeling nauseous, my breasts are seriously tender to the touch (especially on the sides), absolutely ZERO sex drive, little bit of dizziness & gas/bloating. I took a FRER this morning with like my 3rd MU, I *think* I see a VERY faint line, but I look like a maniac holding it every which way. I'm probably just seeing things, but I could be between 13-18 dpo, so still too early?

Ahhh! I wish I had normal cycles, that would make this WAY easier haha! Thanks for sticking through my post, any help, advice, encouragement, etc is greatly appreciated :)

Hi @mama! Welcome to the thread! I'm a self diagnosed POAS tester too! Do you have a pic of your last test? xxx

@scuba.chick, I do! I've put it on my profile :)

Well, AF reared her ugly head moments ago...can't say I'm not disappointed, but there's always next time! I wish everyone lots of and I'll see you on the next board!

Oh no! I find that always happens to me just as I decide to open an expensive FRER! xx

Scuba... one cyle i started my period....on a FRER. There were tears and lots of margaritas that day.
Ladies that all just started a new cycle... good luck, stay brave and dont lose hope!

I broke down & ordered a Clear Blue Advanced Digital Ovulation Predictor kit with 20 tests. Anyone else use these? I have irregular cycles so what CD should I start using it?

@becky everyone was so quiet but thanks babe

@alex I hope so but I kinda feel dumb for having all of these things going on but negative tests lol it's like i should know I'm not pregnant but I'm clinging on to hope

@pandorica I'll look at it now

@lalou I hope you enjoy your trip and get that positive opk soon !!

@sbaby hopefully it's a good sign

@mamanet I'm so so sorry about your loss babe all the hugs to you I literally typed a major reply just to read further and I deleted it all... I'm so so sorry babe that's no fun but I wish you positives for this month

Okay so I've been seriously feeling like I'm losing my shit... I feel like I'm having all of these things just to go on and have a negative test and AF by the end of the week... I dont want to believe I'm pregnant if I'm not but hey to add to the fake symptoms lol:

I've been having vivid dreams on a nightly bases lately, woke up this morning and thought my sore boobs were gone, the moment I got up they hurt again but not as bad as yesterday. CM went dry again Skin is looking good for someone whose AF is due from tomorrow lol... Nothing much other than that to report I'm afraid ladies
