Hi Montie... Last night while I was walking down my stairs I fell... I am so worried about it. My DH was really supportive and told me that if it is meant to be for us this month then it will happen. He did say I should be more careful... The good thing is that I only fell on my butt and I didn't really hurt myself at least I hope I didn't. Well my ego maybe... Thinking good thoughts. I am going to take an HPT on Friday. Good Luck to everyone!!!

I am so excited that you guys get to test this weekend!! It’s not only a holiday weekend, but I can just feel the luck…..so you will both happy!! I don’t test until next weekend. I am currently 4dpo, however my left side is really hurting. It feels like ovulation pain, I am thinking it’s a cyst. The stranger thing is that I didn’t really have any follicles on that side. I only had one large one this cycle and it was on my right side. I am trying not to think about it. What will be, will be. Cooper, don’t worry about your fall. You will be fine. Your little one is snug inside you right now and trust me……..very well protected. Lovemy3 and Cooper, I will promise to think about you both all weekend in my prayers. I will also try to check in as much as possible. With it being a holiday weekend and having a lot of family in from out of town, I can’t promise how often I will get to the computer. Make sure though, that once you get your big +, you post!!! Love you both……baby dust and prayers to you both!!!

Thanks montie. Around ovulation pre and post I can't alot of pain as well, its probably just a cyst clearing up. Thank you for your prayers, I'll post as soon as I know, XOXO

Hey Montie and Lovemy3... It took me 3 hours to get home from work today because it is the day before Thanksgiving. I can't believe how bad traffic is here. Not to mention the hours in the car didn't help my soreness from my fall. Thanks for both of your well wishes. Lovemy3, I hope that you are going to post that you have a BFP and that I can report the same thing. Montie, this wait is long but we will be here to listen to you. I remember the first few days before I found this site. I was going crazy. Then after reading about everyone else it seems to make things easier. Not to mention being able to talk to someone who is going through some of the same things is really good. When friends or family have not gone through this, it seems like they don't understand. Like my MIL for instance. I have to go to her house for dinner tomorrow. Please pray for me. Inevitably she will say something that just grates on my nerves. My DH knows that we don't need the stress but we haven't seen them in a while. I will be around for the long weekend here. My company is closed on Friday as well. I am planning to get some rest and to get better from my fall. Wishing you both a good few days without stress. I will report right after I test. It will most likely be either Friday or Saturday. Let's all hope for BFP!!!

cd31- tested BFN- no af. Feel crappy and crummy. hanging on to trhe hope that my other kids didn't show positive till till cd37. I honestly can't do this much longer, feel horrid and have allowed to steal my happiness this a.m.

Hey Lovemy3... Don't stress about your HPT. It is still too early to test. I know that this 2WW is tough but the more you think about it the more you worry. Easier said than done but hang in there. I was going to test this morning but decided against it. I am starting to feel some AF symptoms. I really hope that it is just my imagination. I have a rattle that looks like a giraffe. I shake it everyday for Good Luck and Good Vibes that I will see a BFP. My DH even rubs the head. Just try and stay positive. Post whenever you get a chance and let out all of your feelings/frustrations!!! Try to have a good day... I have to go and get ready to take on my MIL for Thanksgiving dinner!!! I do need you to pray for me on that one!!!

 

lovemy3 - November 23

Hey there, thanks for the encouragement...see I should go in your place for Thanksgiving dinner and take on your mil, thats the mood I'm in-lololol. I'm glad you didn't test. Do you really think it could be too early? Gosh, I'm down on my knees praying it is, I'm so done.

Good morning all, Cooper, any news to report? Nothing here. Cd32, still no af and I didn't trest agijn. Going to wait it out at least a couple of more days. Keep us posted!

Hi Lovemy3... I didn't test yet. Actually, I thought about it a lot and I am going to test sometime between today and tomorrow morning. Today is 14DPO for me. My DH and I went out last night at midnight to get our minds off of the test. He took me shopping... The outlets here opened last night at midnight. I told him that if there are no people there we can just go home. There were at least 3000 people there. The traffic was terrible trying to get into the outlets. We did finally find parking and we didn't get home until almost 4AM. Suffice to say I slept late today. Right now I am really dreading seeing a BFN. I just thought that waiting one more day wouldn't hurt. Not to mention I am feeling symptoms of AF. I just don't want to be disappointed today. I think that you should just hang in there. I will let you know as soon as I take the HPT. I do have an appointment on Monday for my beta. Either way by Monday I will know for sure. My DH keeps telling me that if I think that I am not then I am already disappointed and that it shouldn't be a surprise. I really want to but I guess I am just afraid of seeing the BFN. Please don't let my craziness get you down. It is just that we have been TTC for more than 2 years now and it is getting more than frustrating for me. I'll talk to you later... Thanks for asking about me...

Good morning...cd33 and no af, but still bfn. I figure i'm 12 or 13 dpo. Come join us on "2ww driving you crazy" thread and we can wait togther. Any news...did you test?

Stress makes the whole thing harder, I know that. Who knows what happens physiologically, though. I have a really nice mother-in-law and I wouldn't dream of telling her that I'm undergoing infertility treatments. Even in the best of circumstances you are opening yourself up to criticism. I would just be quiet about my personal business from here on out and ask my husband to do the same. It'll reduce your stress.

Hi Lovemy3... I did test and did get a BFN. I am still going to see my RE and have them do the Beta. I hope that since you are only a few days away that you will post with some good news and that you got a BFP. I am trying to stay positive. Since I am also on prometrium, that could be the reason as to why AF hasn't come yet. On Monday I will talk with my RE and see what our next step is. It might be that he wants us to try again with the medication or it may be the injectibles. Either way, DH and I are going to proceed with what they think will be best. Let me know if things are progressing for you. I'll talk to you later... Have a good day...

Robyn, How did the transfer go? Are you feeling okay? I know that you are on bedrest for the next few days. Just try to take it easy. I did the HPT and got a BFN. I am still going to see my RE on Monday. DH and I are going to proceed from there. It might just have to be injectibles for us. I'll keep you posted. Get some rest and Congrats again!!!
