Hi! CC, I got BFP the third month after HSG and stopping the Clomid. I am not sure if the Clomid helped or not. I think the HSG did though. D, please test. The suspense is killing me. Dea, I am glad you temps are still up. That is wonderful news. I can't wait for you to test either. Keep us posted! BABY DUST!

i was thinking about running over to the store. still debating. i feel crampy again

D: Temps vary per person- My temps are pre O: below 98. Same at O...then post O above 98. that is my personal coverline. For temping- remember to take your temp every day at the same time before you get out of bed or do anything else---it helps establish a clear pattern. After a couple of months you'll feel like you have a very good grasp of this temping stuff. Right now- I don't "chart" anymore. I know where my temps should be at different points. I usually start paying close attention the few days before AF- when my temps drop that tells me she is about to show up. Hope some of this helps!!

I made an appt with my dr for monday to have them take blood or whatever. even if the witch shows i will still go. but i don't think it will show.. :o). it better not show up. my dr will think i am nuts.

Good luck D! Fingers, toes and everything else crossed for you!

Thanks Dea.. Right now my face is on fire. i feel so hot. Almost flu-ish but not the flu.

Hi! D run quickly to the store and test. I cannot believe you have to wait till Monday to get a blood test. Will you know that day or will they have to send off your blood? My doctor was able to the test right there in the office, but sent the blood work off for the HCG numbers. I feel flushed all the time now too. I can tell my temps are elevated too. I think it is a good sign for you. Have you ever been this late? My doctor changed my prenatal vitamins and a three month supply is $92.00. I could hardly believe it when I went to pick them up. Pardon me if the is tmi, but they have a stool softner built in. You ladies waiting on a BFP will soon find out what the iron in prenatal vitamins can do to your regularity. Well friends, I have to get some rest. I am so tired. BABY DUST!

Hey Cendy. i did test this afternoon and got a bfn. i thought i wrote that. sorry. So i have to wait. i will probably test again before monday. I know it is wrong. and i think i am one of those lucky ladies who will not get a bfp quick.

Hey! D, I must have overlooked you BFN. I would say it is just too early to tell. Are you taking the test first thing in the morning? Which brand are you using? I cannot wait to hear your good news! I will continue to pray for you and the rest of our thread. BABY DUST!

Good Morning All. Here's the deal so far today-- temps dropped .08 degrees and I got a BFN on a HPT (not good signs)... but no signs of AF...except the bbs being sore, which they have been since 4dpo. Since yesterday they have been feeling "bigger" and are filling my bra in differently. This morning I saw veins that I haven't before (all good signs). So I have no idea what's going on. If AF stays away until the end of the week I will schedule a blood test with the dr. I am really going nuts with this- I just want an answer one way or the other. Maybe I will schedule the test for Fri- just because. If it's in the blood it's there already. D: perhaps you and I are like you said--- those ladies who just don't get a BFP with HPT..... ~~DUST~~

Hey Cendy and Dea. Cendy i thought i posted it early yesterday but i didn't. sorry. I am probably just going to wait a few more days. Today is a week yipeeeeeee. just got to make sure the witch stays away.. although if i am meant to get it I will get it. But i still don't see it coming. Dea. I know i can't figure it out. But the witch would have shown by now if i wasn't and I know I o'd. My bb's feel like heavy boulders on my shoulers.. LOL. Baby DUst and Happy Thoughts.

So I broke down and went to the $ store to buy tests (10 of them in fact). The teenager behind the counter must have thought I was nuts. I did one as soon as I got home. (Text book BFN) I am on a mission now! I will probably test twice a day until I get that BFP or until the witch shows up or until I do to the dr. and get the darn bloood test..... But- I can't help feeling like I am preggers. So frustrating. So D- it figures that you and I would be the kind of people who don't get the HCG levels to show on a HPT!! Like we haven't suffered enough and waited long enough---- ARGH!! I am still holding on to faith that I did conceive this month. CENDY: How are you feeling? Anything new to report? JENNIFER...LASHUNDA...CC...ERICKA... are you ladies out there??? ~~DUST~~

Hello everybody. Dea, I hope your temps stop going down. I hear temps can drop when implantation occurs so hopefully that’s what is happening. d, I have no idea what could be going on with you. It is so strange that af is so late but you are still getting bfn. I hope Monday comes around quickly for you so you can get some answers. CC, what cd are you? Are you oing soon? I have my hsg appointment on Monday at 8:15 am and the following Monday I meet with my dr. to review those results and those of my blood tests. Dh can't go with me to the hsg which I am upset about, but I will be taking my mom so I can have some support. Have a good night.

Yep Dea were are those. I know it. My favorite bra was alittle snug today.

ERICKA: My dr. was able to discuss results right there (I was still in my gown and basically turned around to look at the screen)- If you can get a peek at the screen---- you will want to see your uterus and both tubes filled with the "goop". When they are filled in they look blueish. Also, further up the tubes, near the ovaries, the dye goes all over. It has a very distinct look to it. Whoever the technician is should be able to give you a "heads-up" about how the HSG looks. Don't be afraid to ask- be bold...don't take "no" for a answer. It's your body and a week is a long time to wait (I can understand that though if they are taking blood, too) but still one whole week! All the best to you-- wear comfortable/elastic pants/seats, take the pain reliever before you go and try to relax. Let us know how it goes... Good luck. ~~DUST~~

On an emotional note: Thank you all for being so supportive. I truly do not know what I would do without you. I don't feel so alone. I feel like I have a place to vent, cry, and laugh as I go through this entire process. (I'm emotional right now-- AF?? pg?? who knows??) But- as I sit here typing away I know there are lots of us struggling with this emotional issue and I am just so grateful to have you ladies. In a lot of ways I feel closer to you than some of my best friends (who don't know I'm ttc-- noone does...just you!) Thank You!! I think of you all very often and I am throwing prayers, dust and well wishes to you all. ~~DUST~~
