PPM- I see the line. Also, I don't want to give false hope but when I had Cayden, I had more red bleeding at the beginning then pink or brown.

Your dream sounds so much better than the one I had. Do you ever have dreams where you think you are awake and it's real? I was sound asleep and swore the cat jumped over me in bed with a spider in her mouth, and then let it go in the bed. So I sprung out of bed and turned on the light and started searching for the spider...when I realized it had been dream.

And if you start that business I would like to partner with you. Kthanks.

Um, find the camera yet?

Re: The Official TTC Thread!

Hey Guys! I've been reading but never have time to post!

RT- Get a pic! I'm dying! Any way you could call a doctor for a blood test? Tell him you have been getting positives and negatives and you are confused because AF is way late.

PPM- I see that line! I see pink too. My first extremely faint BFP was easier to see in person than photos too. Maybe give your doc a call? Bleeding in early pregnancy is very normal but maybe you can get on a progesterone supplement? I know it's debatable whether progesterone supplements actually do anything but maybe check with your doc.

AMC- I know your temps aren't looking good but I'll keep my fingers crossed for you until you are officially out. My temp dropped almost to the coverline the day after I go my BFP so you never now!

LC- Hoping tonight is your last guilt-free booze for a while! I'll be checking in for your test results tomorrow!


AFM, I want a cycle buddy! Any lurkers wanna come out to play??? I'm on CD15 and expecting to O within the next 5 days.
Here's my PSA for the day:
If you are using a digital OPK don't hold the stick under the pee stream for too long! It gave me a false positive on my Clear Blue Advanced test (it's a cross between the fertility monitor and a traditional OPK. It compares your daily tests and since I got a positive it was locked with a smiley face for 2 days and I had to wait to use it again. Today I was able to use it but it thinks I'm on a new cycle so I am hoping it will still catch my O.

What's the best price / place to buy FRER's ?
Amazon or target /cvs /?? Are there coupons online to be found?

Thanks - your friendly local POAS addict on a budget : )

Re: The Official TTC Thread!

RT, can't wait to see the pic! And that dream, haha!

AMC, are you going to test again or just wait for AF? Your temp isn't below the cover line yet, right?

LC, have fun with your wine tonight! Maybe that'll be the thing that triggers your BFP tomorrow. ;-)

PPM, how's the bleeding now? It might be worth it to just put in a call to your OB to see if you can get a script for some progesterone, given your history. Good luck mama!

Mia, I'm CD13, but I'm pretty sure we're not trying this month. Sounds like you're gearing up to BD soon. Do you have a plan or just going with the flow?

AFM, I'm finding it super hard to temp in the mornings, so I had like 4 days of temps last cycle and then nothing. Lame. I do have my 40-pack of LH and 10-pack of HCG wondfos all ready. Maybe I'll start using the LH sticks next cycle. The good news is that my last cycle was 27 days instead of 45 the cycle before that, so I'm hoping this cycle is similar.

Target is the cheapest. Go to firstresponse.com and print out a $2 coupon. Then use the $1 coupon that will be on the FRER box. So that's $3 off and I want to say they are $14 for a 3 pack, so that takes it down to $11. It's as if I've done this before.

Right. If my temp goes up tomorrow I'll test again. If AF doesn't show tomorrow I will test on Sunday, because she will be late and I've never had a LP over 14 days.

Ok...I'm going to tell this story as tactfully as possible.

First off, I'll state that I have every other friday off so I get 2 3day weekends each month (actually this one is a 4 day) because I work 1 week for 9 hours and 1 day for 8 hours and the next week I work 4 days for 9 hours then I get the 10th day off. Anyways, I just wanted to explain why I'm taking 4 hour naps in the middle of the day.

I took a shower and then was like, well screw it, I'm gonna take a nap! So I did, for four hours. This was the dream I had.

I dreamt that I won the lottery and I used my winnings to create a startup called (and I don't know if I can say this on PS so please tell me if it's not ok) The Undercover Slut Detective. I worked for the producers of the bachelor and I worked to find girls who still had boyfriends but were still accepted on the show. At one point, I was in Africa and I used a zipline to steal a pair of thong underwear from one of the girl's lovers to use as evidence *facepalm*.

Once I woke up, my immediate first thought was, what in the he!! was that?? Then my next immediate thought was, I better pee on something!

So I did.

Got a faint pink line.

Have NO CAMERA!!! :errrr:

And....so now I'm gonna eat a brownie and then start the search for a camera again.

:errrr: :errrr: :errrr: :errrr: :errrr: :errrr: :errrr: :errrr:


This post...might be my favorite post ever.

Omg. Freaking out. I just moved back to Ohio so I don't have an OBGYN... I posted on a local natural parenting group (so I thought) for an OB rec... and then realized I POSTED IT ON MY OWN FACEBOOK PAGE. OMG. Ugh. Dying. Horrible. It was there for about 5 minutes, so hopefully I didn't just cause too much damage. It was total over-share, too, all, "I started bleeding and have a short luteal phase..."

HAHA
I found a 3 pack of clearblue digital on Amazon for $14.98, I think that's a pretty good deal.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o :o :o :o :-o :-o :-o

I'm so sorry PPM! I'm always afraid that I will do that! I don't know why they don't make it look different when you are posting on your wall or someone else's! Did you end up posting it in the right place and what did they say? I had really short LPs for the longest time (average 9 days). When I got pregnant it had just stretched out to 12-13 days but my progesterone was very low during my first trimester and I had to use a suppository 2x a day. If this cycle isn't it for you maybe you can get a prescription for next cycle?

Yup, AF showed today. What total crap that it took 17 days to get my period. I guess at least I know for next time to get internet cheapies since I apparently now have a freakishly long LP.

Sorry random :( I'm in the same boat, AF started late last night.

But I do have some motivation to wait to test this cycle. Valentine's Day should be around 13dpo, and I want to drink wine :)
