Part 5 was 12 pages long so I thought I would start a new one (:
This is a picture of how I feel. Fingers crossed for Thanksgiving, that is when I am POAS!

@figgnewton: Love this pic lol. Im trying to save it to my pc so i can email it to my FI but It wont lemme save it LOL
@MrsGrayIndy: I looked it up on google under "Funny trying to conceive pictures" (:
@Lyndzo: I want to get more involved. My DH doesn't understand when I try talking to him about this stuff. But I feel I don't know anything about charting yet so I feel like I shouldn't be posting under this thread.
@krystallite: Oh my, TEST!! : ) Sounds very promising!
@figgnewton: GL on Thursday!!
@figgnewton: I want to be more involved too but I can't seem to keep up as much.
I swear I "feel" pregnant but I know I am just being stupid and getting my hopes up again.
@figgnewton: thanks for starting the new thread!
@wifegoodman: (from part 5) meeeee too! thank you :) hope you're feeling good, mama!
@krystallite: sounds really promising! fx for you...when are you going to test?
@hardtoconcentrate: Welcome (:
@Yellow.Clover: Thanks!!!
@Lyndzo: I know. Every time I start to do some paperwork at work I come back a couple min later and I'm lost lol
@Yellow.Clover: & @hardtoconcentrate: I wasted my morning pee, maybe later today. I do have dollar store tests, so if it gives me that blank stare, I might have to pick up some new ones!
@krystallite: oooohh.....this sounds promising too! TEST TEST TEST!!!!!!! ;)
I want so badly to be pregnant, it is literally making me sick. I can't focus and feel like I'm going to toss my cookies. TMI- Yesterday I had brown smelly discharge is that bad?
@krystallite: GL! I say since it's the dollar store tests, go for it!! Then again with FMU! : )
@figgnewton: Brown discharge could very well be implantation bleeding! FX!
@Yellow.Clover: Thanks for the advice (: Makes me feel a little better.
I want thanksgiving here already. I went to the craft's store last night and wanted to buy the stuff to surprise my parents that we are pregnant but I don't want to jinx myself. Anyone else going through this?
@krystallite: Are you temping or just keeping track of your periods with the app?
@figgnewton: That could be a good sign. FX for you!
So I had a positive OPK yesterday ( multiple throughout the day ) this AM it was still positive, and then this afternoon it was negative. Do I record that my OPK test was positive today or negative today in FF?
Also, I'm a terrible sleeper, I toss and turn thoughout the night waking up lots. My temps are pretty up and down, how hard will it be to get an accurate reading of when I O? I'll try and link my chart, not totally sure how to do it.

Thanks for any advice! ( if I actually O'd yesterday I can POAS really early on Nov 30 whooo for 2 potential chances this month )
@LyndzJM: My understanding is that you record it positive if you have any positives throughout the day. Just like you record the most fertile CM you find - like if I have sticky all day and then a bought of EWCM, I'm supposed to record EWCM.
AFM, today became a much better day once I found something to keep myself busy. I work from home and right now, work is not very demanding, so I've been able to do nothing and just waste time thinking about TTC all day. Today I finished my thank you cards from my wedding, though! I feel so productive, like I actually accomplished something....even if it wasn't work-related. I know that's pathetic but I needed that after a day of obsession yesterday on top of obsessing this weekend.
Thanks for the congrats everyone! Doesn't feel real yet. DH keeps saying "omg are you really pregnant??" Here's hoping for a ton more BFP's this month!
@Lyndzo: i'm right there with ya! I can feel ALL the symptoms yet nothing's happening! Kind of silly.
@Yellow.Clover: How are the OPK's looking? Still positive? Get busy girl!!!
@figgnewton: I wish sigh. FX for you!
@hardtoconcentrate: Good job on the thank you notes. I hated doing mine. I made my DH do his friends and families.
@LyndzJM: I am confused by it all. Why can't it just be simple? You have sex. You get pregnant. Done. ??
@LuluH: Oh yeah, DH has to do his friends and family. I hated doing them too...that's why it's over 2 months past my wedding date and I just mailed them today. 
Well, I'm officially out. AF came this evening - but at least there's no more obsessing for now. Until I ovulate again, at least. Good luck everybody, and I'll see ya'll in the December thread!
@Lyndzo: You could be! You're not out yet!
@LuluH: I always had a faint line on my OPKs too, no matter when I took them. And I was freaked out that I wouldn't know when they were positive when the lines got darker, but every single month when they turned positive it was really obvious! Then I would forget about it, and start worrying about it all over again the next month!
Wow, can't even keep up with all the bfps. Congrats to skipper if I didn't already say it, and congrats to blondee!
I have minor cramping today. No spotting though. My temps dropped below my coverline yesterday. 98.0 when my coverline is 98.5...today it is back up to 98.7. We will see. I really think this is not my month :(.
@Yellow.Clover: @hardtoconcentrate: @MrsPuddingface: @Mrs-Sunflower: @LuluH: thanks everyone, but just took a FRER and nothing. The damn thing couldn't look any whiter.
I'm so bummed. I had my hopes up and was trying to figure out how I'd tell DH. He called on his way home, right after the test and asked what was wrong (he could tell in my voice) so I tell him and he says "are you supposed to pee on sticks so much?" I'm like dude, I took 2!
@MrsEagleEye: I'm not temping or anything. But I'm going to have to start. Then I'll actually have something worth entering into FF.
I'm out and probably more heartbroken than last month.
With a 23 day cycle and OD on day 16 I doubt I'll ever get pregnant. I honestly don't know what to do and the Dr. is out of the question b/c she doesn't know I'm off BC (yeah, yeah, I know).
@LyndzJM: I'm a terrible sleeper as well, but yes, totally can see a temp shift. Just keep on plugging those temps in! : ) Good luck!
@hardtoconcentrate: Yay! Glad you got to finish your thank you cards and it kept your mind off TTC. I wish I had a distraction....
@LuluH: Ahh, no, no positive! My body hates me... : (((( That test line was so light this morning it was crazy!!
@Steinberg: Sorry about AF : (
@krystallite: Oh no!! Sorry about the BFN, but you're not out yet! GL!
@Lyndzo: Have you tried charting your temps? You should really start so you can find your true LP. I know you say you O'd on CD16, but how positive are you that it was CD 16? I say chart for two months and add in a b-complex or b6 and see what it does. Go to the search box on the upper right corner of this page and type in b-complex and read the posts others have wrote about it for a short LP. A 7 day LP is def not long enough. Good Luck.
Well ladies, this is my last post until Monday!! : ) For all my US bees, have a happy and safe Thanksgiving!!
@Lyndzo: Aww, I am so sorry to hear that. I think you can take a vitamin B complex which has helped some of the bees lengthen their luteal phases. Might be worth a shot for next cycle. I don't know the exact dosage or if you take it the whole cycle but I know some of the bees on here will! Don't lose hope yet, from what I've heard a short luteal phase can be improved. Good luck hun!
@krystallite: So sorry you got a BFN :( The good news though is since you don't really know when you ovulated, you aren't out this cycle yet! You probably ovulated later and therefore your period will come a bit later as well. It's also therefore possible that you could get a positive test later on. I do highly recommend temping though. Your story sounded exactly like what happened to me this cycle. I am also on my 2nd cycle off BCP and my first cycle was 27 days but this cycle I ovulated a week later so instead of getting my period today as I would have if I'd had another 27 day cycle, I know not to expect it until around Wednesday of next week. Charting really helps eliminate some of the guess work and at least gives you some idea as to what your body is doing each cycle. Going off BCP can throw it off a bit so it's great to have that extra knowledge so you know when you can reliably take a test. I hope you still get your BFP before AF shows but if not good luck with charting next cycle!
@Yellow.Clover: I've been charting and temping the whole time. I'm going to pick up some B6 on my lunch break today. I'm still just wanting this day over. I hate working while I'm upset.
@Lyndzo: Here's the post I remembered reading about short luteal phase with advice on what to take. Hope this helps! http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/chart-showing-short-luteal-phase
@MrsEagleEye: Thank you!
@Yellow.Clover: Happy Thanksgiving to you and all the American bees!
