@Anna: I've had UTI's off and on for many, many years... they can be painful from cramping to the pain during and after peeing. The feeling you have to pee but only dribble is the most uncomfortable feeling!! And it can cause pink when you wipe if you have a tad of blood in your urine, which I have experienced also. It causes bad cramping that feels just like AF, too! I take AZO for bad symptoms, but not sure if its safe to take if possibly pregnant or TTC?

@amarie: best wishes to you and your future travels!

@Pandorica: Your chart still looks amazing! I am 6-7dpo also and not too many symptoms other than a sudden decrease in appetite and cramping a bit still...

@agatch: I get your feelings with the possible evap, but for you!

@Kitkat: If its only pink when wiping and you don't even need a pantyliner, I wouldn't think it is AF early...

@BiminiL Sorry AF showed, but the relaxed approach is the best... it is when I finally conceived my

AF: 6-7dpo, another negative hpt this morning. Only symptoms is sudden decrease in appetite and mild cramping, still. Feeling super tired today and just sort of blah... I need to stop testing because it is already starting to get me down seeing the neg test this morning. I know it is still early, but I at least got a squinter at 7dpo with previous pregnancies, so it is already starting to make me think I'm out... Need to stop testing until at least this weekend!

So, I looked back at my previous pregnancy tests (which are still on this site) and my first very-much-a-squinter was at 8dpo, not 7dpo LOL... much clearer around 10dpo... so going to try to hold out on testing again until Saturday morning... Due to the symptoms I have logged yesterday and today, CTP says my probability of being pregnant is 22.8% now instead of just 20%... is this going to happen every cycle? I wonder how accurate their increase in % is? What do you ladies show in their analysis this cycle if you are in your TWW??

@adoette, i've had pink and brown, but I think it's slowing down now. I want to test sooooo bad! Trying to wait it out.

So I took a test on the off chance I'd get a positive and could surprise hubby on Valentine's day. Pretty sure it's a BFN! My line eyes see a little something, but I'm thinking it's an indent! Im really having no symptoms so I wasn't expecting anything.

I went and checked it again and this is what I see... Do you guys think evap? I checked the clock right away and it would have been 13 mins

@agatch I'm 10 dpo, and tested in the afternoon with only a 2-3 hour hold. Now that it's dry the line is super obvious. I haven't done enough with these tests to know how to feel about it! Oh well... Guess I'll know in a few days! I know what you mean about rational and reasonable!! Last month my period was on the lighter side but I was having some intense symptoms and I seriously had myself convinced for a few minutes that I was pregnant anyway and I was one of those rare people with unexplained and harmless early pregnancy bleeding. The brain can go a little nutso!

@crystal I dont think it's actually a uti as jy doesnt hurt every time and it's just cramping but that's it... I also pee a lot when I do go but i dont know how uti work so it could be that you're right... I also just want to add that I got up to 26% chance of pregnancy before but wasnt pregnant so I wouldn't trust it too much

@adoette aww thanks babe I appreciate it... I'm glad you had a fun night with SO that took some pressure off... The mood swings could pregnancy related as well... Not sure about the temp drop hopefully it picks up again

@nicole dont run away babe good luck with your journey and keep us updated okay

@teacher i dont really see anything but adding that I just woke up and everything is bright lol... Test again in a few days babe

@agatch my girl lol sanity and patience left this place a long time ago girl But I'm sorry you got another negative but I either hope for a bfp or AF soon as I know being late with negatives suck and just getting AF and moving on is better... Still got my fingers crossed babe

So I'm another day closer to testing (7dpo today, 5 days to go before testing hopefully lol) and I woke up this morning with the burning sensation in my left boob which is a new symptom starting last month and I was absolutely pissed... I just feel like my body is making up things now because the moment I had it last month I thought "wow this is new and good" but it wasnt... Other than that the only big this is I keep waking up hungry as in I need to eat now or I'll throw up hungry which is something I had in my first pregnancy but not taking it as a symptom

@Anna thank you for your kind words and for making me laugh! I have my fingers crossed for you too. I really hope this is cycle is it!!

Hi Ladies,
Just want to check in and send love and support to everyone. TTC is such a rough process, the waiting and symptoms. You don’t know what’s real and what’s fake anymore. I’m on CD2 and still in the back of my mind hoping that I’m just bleeding a bit but pregnant. How crazy is that right?!
I’m looking forward to hearing some BFP from you all. You all deserve it and I feel it will happen. Stay positive and always remember you are not alone. We have each other!!
