You and me both, this is absolutely the worst. You know I had my ultrasound on Tuesday and only talked to the tech and didn't know if my doctor was going to call or not. Well I checked our voicemail last night and she called wednesday night and it is too late to call her back until Monday. What a bummer, I have no idea if she will tell me anything different but I can't wait to find out. Hope you are having a nice weekend and I hope you are not obsessing as much as me!

Hi! I'm trying not to obsess about it, but it's constantly on my mind! Oh well, guess we'll wait and see what happens. I hope you doc has only good things to say. Take care and you have a great weekend too :-)

Lori, how are you doing? I'm doing okay. This 2WW is taking too long. I keep asking for a sign, but nothing's coming. Oh well, I must be patient...aaaarrrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!! :-)

Are you going as insane as I am? I'm losing my mind! I'm sooooo tired and I just want to sleep...

It is killing me as well but I am not feeling so optomistic after talking to my doctor. She thinks that I pretty much ovulated on the left side and that possibly a follicle released on the right but she was not sure it was mature based on the size of the cyst. Being tired is a good sign. I know the progesterone supplements can make you sleepy but hopefully that will not be the case for you. When are you going to test? How long are you going to be able to hold out? I will probably break down on Friday which will be 10 dpo and see what happens. I may also talk myself out of it by then. Do you get your hpt at dollar tree or what kind do you generally use? Sorry to be mia the last couple of days but I wrote a short novel today. baby dust in abundance!!!!!!

lori, I'm glad you are back and you are okay :-) I'm sorry to hear that your doctor thinks it was on the left side only. I hope that's not the case. I never thought about getting my tests at the dollar tree. I usually go to Walgreens and last time, I bought one of every brand, but that got too expensive. My sister found an article on 7 News that proves First Response is the best detector to use if you want to test early. I think I'll buy more of those (I ran out of them last cycle). I won't be testing until October 1st cause my cycles run long while I'm on Clomid and that's when AF is due. I probably will break down and test earlier, but my DH hates when I do that because "pregnancy tests are too expensive!" How much are they at Dollar Tree? Do they have all the brands there? What kind have you been using? Have a great day!

They only cost a dollor and they test at levels of 25miu, which I believe is the same level as first response. They also sell ovulation tests for a dollar. You can be a test a holic and not have to pay out the wazoo. I know that their is a dollar tree at 88th and wadsworth by that home depot, burlington coat factory strip mall. It is right next door to Joanne fabrics. I heard about them on the forums and it seems that they are really sensitive and reliable. I have been pretty good about the testing lately and have waited until my af is due so I never seem to have to test because it always arrives. I had a temp dip this morning to close to my coverline so I am trying to remain positive that I may still get lucky. How are you feeling otherwise? I was so worried about the progesterone and the side effects and so far I really haven't had any, knock on wood. Let me know if you have any trouble finding the $ tree and do an online search about them to see what others experiences have been. Have a good one!

Cool! I'll have to check them out. I know exactly where that is. Are they Dollar tree brand? I keep thinking that I have cramps, like implantation cramps, but they could just be in my head because I want to be pregnant soooo much. I wish I could test before the 2WW, but I did an HCG trigger, and I guess that's supposed to be in my system for 14 days and could give a false positive. I think I'll wait until my AF is due, then I won't have to worry about getting a false negative either...hopefully.

Good morning! It's 4:30am and I can't sleep! I've been waking up every hour and having trouble getting back to sleep, then when I finally could, my cat started meowing at the door and woke me up! Hope you have a better day :-)

That exact same thing happened to me last week. Our cat just kept roaming around meowing and driving me nuts. I am unsure of the brand, but you will find a lot of people talking about them. I don't blame you for not wanting to test, I forgot about the HCG trigger shot, that would be so depressing to get a false positive. I have now been ttc for over a year and it is so depressing. I just really want something else to obsess about other than ovulation and 2ww. Hopefully us meeting will bring both of us some luck. I hope you have a better day! Oh and mine is not so great the power is out at work and I only have probably 1 1/2 hours of battery life left on my laptop, so if it doesn't come back on soon I am going to be very bored. The phones are out as well so I can be really lazy I guess.

You're lucky, in a way. I work at a contact center, and the power and phones are always up and running. The computers, on the other hand, go down sometimes, but we still have to take calls. Did the power go out due to the weather? It was nasty this morning! I know what you mean about ttc being depressing...especially when the witch AF comes along...hopefully not this time though! Well, back to work. ttyl :-)

No I sell townhomes in Thornton and our landscaper accidently cut the electrical so they had it off so they could get it fixed. It was only out about 2 hours but I work by myself 2 days a week so it gets lonely when I don't have a computer to keep me company. We are getting so close to the end of the 2ww yeah!!!!!

That's a bummer! I'm glad they got it fixed though. Yep, only 6 more days to go, I think :-) Better than 14! Hope things go well for both of us.

Well, it's another early morning - woke up at 3:30 and can't get back to sleep. I hope this is a sign that I'm pregnant, cause I don't remember being this way the last 2 times. Do you feel like you have a frog in your throat? I'm constantly having to clear my throat, but I don't feel sick otherwise. Have a great day!

I have heard that having sleep issues that you are having could be a sign. I know it is so hard to tell when we have so many drugs going through our systems that mimic pregnancy. I have definately felt an increase in phlem but did not know if the progesterone was the cause. I took a test this morning and of course it was bfn. I think I am going to wait until 14 dpo to test again. Only 4 more days to go. How are you liking the cold? I am loving it, I am always hot so it feels really good to me. I hope you have a great day and our wait is soon to be over and hopefully not to start again.

It may have been too early to test today, but we'll see in a while. I think I'll take one next Wed, and then again on the following Sunday. This weather is nice! You can always dress to be warm, but you can't dress down to be cold. How is your day going so far?
