Morning all. I tested today and it was a BFN. I didn't have to much high hopes as my temperature dropped a little bit but I tested anyways. At this point I will wait until Saturday to test again. AF always shows up on 14DPO for me so if I miss a day then I'll test again. If not then I'll move on to the next cycle. I never thought that getting pregnant would take this long or be this difficult. Growing up and in the past few years I always thought we'll start trying and then be pregnant. Boy was I wrong! I really want a 2018 baby so it's looking like we have two more cycles to try for one.

@FlamingoGirl13. Truely sorry that your temp dropped slightly. Have you tried progesterone cream and see if that might be an issue? If I knew a long time ago that my progesterone was the culprit I would have got it sooner and I would be a few months pregnant instead of a month as I really wanted a August and/or September but that wasn't the case.

I have been trying to change my ticker but not sure how to change it as the tickers on here don't list pregnant ones and I have seen some tickers from thebump.com and the link doesn't seem to be working. Not sure how to get the link to work. Anyone on here know? Also, I haven't updated my calendar to show pregnant and I want to mark pregnancy test positive but don't know if I should mark it at 8-9dpo or the day I got my blood work done. So new at this.

@ Dragonfly23 - I'm not sure about the tickers. You had positive tests on 8-9 DPO so that is when you should mark positive. This site is all about which tests are used and which DPO they show positive so I'd stay true to the tests and use those dates on your calendar. You can add the blood work stuff in on your other days if you want.

Thank you for the advice! I'll do some research on what to try next.

@FlamingoGirl13. Thank you! I know 8dpo was very faint but the line was there. I really hope that your time will come soon.

@dragonfly23 - Thanks hun, I have faith that my time will come soon too!

Well, 11 dpo and negative. I’m definitely out this month. Hopefully period doesn’t take forever to start as I sometimes have long luteal phases. Best of luck to everyone else who is testing!

Well.... this was not how I wanted to tell him lol. He asked me if I was pregnant and I just asked why you say that. He's like, because you aren't drinking. I told him that this was so not how I wanted to tell you. Told hom not to say anything. Hope he doesn't tell anyone.

Hello ladies,

I actually had a m/c back in November after my second cycle TTC. Hubby and I were very upset and disappointed, but we're back in the saddle. On 10 DPO and have some of the same symptoms from before I got my BFP: stuffy nose, bloated, and a few others. I'm not doing BBT this time, because last time I did it, it drove me absolutely batty. Glad to join you all. Hope that if I do get a bean this time that it sticks.
Baby Dust and Sticky Vibes to all!

PS - Glad to see some friendly faces in this thread. Hi ladies!

Omg burn2ash. I am so sorry to hear that. I saw you on the Sister site. Baby dust and sticky vibes for you this cycle!! I hope you get your BFP!!

Dragonfly- how did you change your ticker?
