Claudia & Ladyshipe--> In regards to temping. I did it the few months leading up to this cycle, but shortly before this one started my son stopped sleeping through the night every night, so I wasn't able to get a good temp. You can also get a BBT (Basal Body Thermometer) at Walmart/CVS/Walgreens for $10 or less. You can take your temp vaginally or orally; vaginally seems to get the most accurate reading since you don't have to worry about breathing through your mouth and throwing it off. I couldn't bring myself to do it vaginally. Also, my temp DROPS when I get up, not rises. Every woman is different. Fertility Friend offers a wonderful app for iPhone and Android phones that will give you a great place to store your data; they analyze it for you!

AFM: with FMU and SMU this morning, so it looks like this isn't my month either. Had a few twingy pains about 20 minutes ago, but I'm guessing since I'm already 10 dpo it's too late to be implantation.

Aww, 2Frsty..well it ain't over till AF shows...So ur still not out yet.

And yes to everything you said about the BBT.
My temp rises when I get up.
I was also using Fertility Friend as well when I started temping. That was where I got my LP.

I was the same way. My LP is always 15 days long. Which has been crucial to me figuring out when AF should arrive.

Mine is 11 give or take a day.
My cycle is anywhere between 24-28 days. Although I've had a few cycles that were 21-22 days.
Crazy!

@2frsty i agree youre not out yet until AF shows :)

thanks for all the info on temping ill definitely be trying that in the months to come

So I took all 3 of these with the same pee. I swear I see shadows on all 3, especially the top one. This crap is making me crazy! My boobs have been feeling weird off and on all day. Not sore, but - weird. That's the best way for me to explain it. Going to get a few different tests tonight...I can't stand this "maybe" crap!

Lol- I THINK I see a shadow as welll.
Try a different brand test.

FRER with FMU. I've got line eye so bad that I can't help but see a line. But I'm sure it's just the antibody strip. I guess I should just accept the fact that it's not going to happen. I tried talking to DH about it told him that we're running out of time, since he leaves in October. He said, "We're not running out of time, it's just not the RIGHT time." Then he asked me if I was gonna get like this every time I tried to get pregnant. What a dick! He has NO idea how it feels!

im sorry 2frsty. when is af due tho

ok. I don't see a line on that one.
Did AF show up yet? If not, don't count yourself out yet.

And yah it does get stressful, but Dh has a point. Stressing doesn't really help cause it throws your body out of wack.

Think positive..as I said, AF hasn't showed up yet, and maybe your body is responding to the hcg differenly than in your previous pregnancies?
