Good Morning girls! (It's morning where I am atleast =)
How's everyone doing?

My Charts
Morning Angel (and everyone else who is crossing their fingers!),
For those of you reading, I'm in the last few days of my wait. I'm dying to run upstairs and get that stick!!! But I'm holding off.
Interesting symptom this morning. Dizziness. Since I've been faintly nauseous for the past two days, I've been drinking my one cup of coffee and eating breakfast right away. When I got up this morning, I was dizzy... and clumsy. Both are extremely unusual and the only research I've found so far is dizziness in the second trimester. I heard omega 3s helped so I ate a half an avocado and that helped a lot but not 100%. I'm canning my yoga workout this morning... bummed about that.
How's everyone else doing?

Morning, morning.... aaannnddd the wait continues. 12DPO.... gawd this is bizzarre for me... 3 days late for my normal cycle, put a tampon in last night just in case and this morning it had a few thin , light streak of brownish tinge on it but thats all. And my temp went back up. Was on coverline yesterday at 97.6 but this morning it was back up to 98.0 even. Took a FRER but no squinter, complete negative. Either a + or AF starting would be reallly nice bout now. Hope to see some of you ladies with your BFP's this morning :) Here my chart also..... http://www.tcoyf.com/members/cowgirlangel/charts/1.aspx

Cowgirl: Hang in there! This happened to me last cycle, three days of spotting, then temp increase, then stupid AF two days later >.< I hate that roller coaster.
I have a question about Preggo Tests: Does anyone use EPT? I have a coupon for $3 off. I am at 10 dpo and my temps are still about .7 degree above my coverline, Iwas thinking about testing on Wednesday at 12 dpo. Would EPT be reliable at the point? I don't want to torture myself with several BFN's, and also I am cheap. I want to wait until the best possible day to test. I am going on a cruise, leaving Friday. Thursday would be 13 and Friday 14 dpo. Would Friday be a better day to test?
Thanks ladies! Good luck to the POAS'ers!
No need for the Monday POAS party for me. AF showed up yesterday :(
Off to WTO for me! Hope to see some of you there!

Morning lovelies.. i think my wait is finally over.. woke up this morning and my temp dropped to my coverline, and went to use the bathroom and i had ALOT of brownish discharge when i wiped and an internal check revealed my cervix waaaay up there.. so high i couldnt hardly touch the opening so im guessing its at least partially open and lots of brown mixed with creamy CM.. so AF aint jumping out at me like she always does but shes peaking her head around the corner waiting for me to get closer.. im heading back over to the waiting to O group... hope none of you join me.. GL to those still waiting!!

Morning all - I'm still here at 5dpo. Strange thing this cycle is all my post O temps are VERY stable - 4 have been 97.8 and one is 97.7. Any idea why they'd be so stable? Could it be the 50 mg B6 I've added this month? Hoping it's a good sign! Still planning to test at 10 dpo on Saturday - my LP has only been 11 days so far, so it could show up then!
Sorry to see a few of you have to leave for the Waiting to O group again...Fingers crossed that this next month is it for you!

ksmith- those last few days could be tough, hang in there! Sorry your having the dizzy's today and forgoing the yoga due to it.
cowgirl- sometimes its so frustrating to not know exactly whats going on, hope one way or the other you get your answer
mskalinin-no advice on the ept's, the only ones I had ever used were the $store ones and the generics from walmart, I here you n the being cheap! Hopefully someone can give you some good advice!
AFM- nothing much going on here cd 28, 7dpo, started getting cramps last night and again this a.m., if I have a normal(for me!) 30day cycle AF should be on her way but will all the hormones I have been on in the past few months I'm not counting on it. SO just waiting and seeing and hoping my LP turns out to be an acceptable length.
Hope to see lots and lots of BFP for everyone very very soon!!
Morning ladies,
Looks like I'm off to the WTO forum. Temp dropped below coverline this morning and cramps have started to increase.
mdillow and KattMC: Sorry to hear the witch has found you guys too.
BAMB1: Any news?!?! I saw your post about the potential BFP. Let me know!
planner21 and julalya: You guys testing today? My fingers are crossed for you ladies.
lovebug: I hope this is your month.
GL to everyone testing today and I hope to see a lot of BFPs.
See you all in a couple of weeks.
Good morning! I'm on Day 5 of my 2WW. I'm nervous and excited!
DH and I are trying for our 1st child. I'm currently taking Metformin in hopes that will help me conceive. So far the Metformin has really helped to keep my temperatures stable, instead of all over the place. We've been trying for years but this is the first cycle on Metformin.
Good luck everyone!

Angelstar: Good morning to you!
Ksmith: how many days past o are you? Bummer about yoga – I hate missing yoga. But, if it means something, it just would mean you get to make up missed classes at a prenatal class!
Cowgirlangel: Yowzers! I know what you mean, and after you’ve POAS and temped, there isn’t much you can do to figure out what is going on that day! Frustrating!
Mskalinin: I’ve only used FRER, but I can’t tell you how well they work, ‘cause mine have all been BFN J
KattMC, oxalis, & MDillow: Sorry about AF – grrrrr.
Junebug: I’ll be testing at 12 DPO on Saturday, if BFN at 10 DPO on Thursday – we’ll see! Good luck to you!
Lacy 883: Good luck!
Londonzoo: I know the feeling! Nervous and excited, and maybe a bit crazy! Good luck with the metformin. My OH and I are TTC #1, too, and it is a rollercoaster J
AFM: 7DPO, no symptoms (none expected?). Did have a few slight twinges yesterday, but that isn’t out of the realm of ordinary, and they were off to one side, so doubtful they were anything to do with implantation. For anyone who has felt implantation, where was it located? Kinda central? How about in relation to your belly button? Just below?
I did buy a 3 pack of FRERs yesterday, though I’d been playing with the idea of not testing unless I was late. But, oh, well. I did have my OH hide them and I covered my ears and hummed Darth Vadar’s theme song so I couldn’t hear where he paused in the house (small house, wood floors). He said he put it someplace I would never look, which means one of the cooking pots or the bag of kitty litter – he he. His instructions are to get one out for me Wednesday night, and not listen to any rationalization I have about why I should POAS earlier
Have a great day, all, and can’t wait to see some BFPs!!!

Hello all!
I'm new here. I got off of BCP in June. Last month AF was a week late and we both got excited. Sadly, it turned out to just be a side effect of going off the pill. Would have been fantastic to have conceived on the first try! But, alas.
As of today, I begin the first day of my 2ww. I hate suspense and am fairly certain this whole TTC thing is not gonna bode well for my stress level.
Good luck to all of you!

SMK- I'm 9DPO and I normally have a 12-14 day LP. The dizziness is 95% gone now. I'm going to attempt some tennis with DH. We play regularly so hopefully it doesn't make me feel worse. My plan all along was to wait until Wednesday to test (since AF is supposed to show up on Friday) but maybe I'll POAS tomorrow... I can't make up my mind!
FINALLY O'd - - man it took forever. I think me thinking about it so much pushed it back! I had my temp spike this morning (although it was only a a bit higher than coverline but didn't sleep well so I am blaming that) and I guess I technically need 2 more to confirm but there is NO way I O'd later than this! CD21! Come on! So here comes the 2WW - first one actually TTC, and DH is waiting with me! ha ha
Leaving for camp for a week on Sat and since I O'd so late I guess I won't need to test until I get home! How's everyone else doing? Any "symptoms" we're obssesing over this time?

Cowgirl, I wouldn't use a tampon until your sure AF is here. Especially if there is still a chance you might be preggo! Good luck!!!

Hello everyone:
I am new to this forum.. Today is my 8 DPO and I couldn't resist but take a test.. of course negative .. I have been having really strange cramps//twinges/streches since 2dpo on the lower left side and than it stopped two days ago. That made me very hopeful.. It's only our third month ttc #1 ..
I had some low temp today, 97.6, above coverline (97.1) yet quite low ..I'm trying hard not to read too much into it.. my BB have blown to twice the size (quite normal for me before AF expected saturday) and veiny (never really noticed that before)
2ww is too hard!!!
Mskalinin I don't know about the EPT once. I avoid them because they use the blue stain and I have heard bad things about that. However, someone posted yesterday that Target has the First Response once on sale for 7.99 for a two pack and if you go to FR website you can print two coupons for 2.00 off...5.99 is a pretty good price I think!
AFM- I'm at 5 dpo and my temps are staying elevated. I just wish the weekend would get here so I could test!!!!
Looks like that EPT was right! I got my BFP on a digi this afternoon. After dipping two Answers and trying so hard to explain to dh "a line is a line" I dipped a 2nd digi (the first one was negative).
