I'm here at 10 DPO! I'm not having any symptoms or anything like that yet. Not even my usual sore boobs that come up from 8-14DPO. If nothing else, it definitely keeps me off the crazy train. I am actually planning to test at the end of the week, though. I want to make sure before I get my Femara Rx filled, and I don't want any issues getting it before early next week when I anticipate AF.
I'm still here with you beachdreamer. Cycle day 19 who knows how many DPO. Someone asked last week if I tempted, I have not in a very long time. I used to O around cd8. It really doesn't help me to know when I O because DH will generally only have sex on the weekend so if I o'd midweek it doesn't matter. He is in the mindset that if it happens it happens. We do not increase sex during FW any longer. I still do use opk's some months to see if I surge before a weekend, then I try and get both days in. But that doesn't always happen either. I will test wednsday probably.
I might actually go here too...not sure what's going on. I had a positive OPK, EWCM and my temp seems to be up in line with O on Sunday...it's confusing bc of the loss, so who knows.

Good luck to everyone here! I am 11DPO and not feeling hopeful, but that's nothing new anymore. Last night I woke up and one of my nipples had a burning pain when I would lay on it. It made me think for a moment that maybe that was a good sign but this morning, it feels fine (boobs are just a little sore which is normal.) I have had a lot of cm in the past few days, which isn’t really normal for me but I just keep telling myself that I’m done reading in to symptoms since it seems like in the past year, every month my body wants to through different symptoms at me during the TWW. So I’m just going to stay off the crazy train and wait to test until Thursday or Friday. The nurse at the RE told me I should get betas no matter what if I don’t bleed by 14DPO but I haven’t been doing that since the first month I started going. I don’t really see the point if an HPT gives me a BFN, especially when I get charged $40 to get betas drawn.
BFN and some pink spottingso period will be here in a few days. Sucks because I will have it for Mother's Day and that is one of my guaranteed days to have sex . Good luck to the rest of you.

Well, booo. Sorry, hooligans4. I am expecting AF on Mother's Day, too. What a big f*you gift, huh. I already got AF on my birthday during this TTC journey, I don't know why another big day is needed.

So funny-ish story. I am 13DPO and was planning on testing this morning. I was really tired this morning so I got up, grabbed a wondfo, went to the bathroom and then hopped in the shower while I was waiting for the results to show up. When I got out of the shower, I went to look at it and saw 2 pink lines. I got really excited and almost called for MH to come look when I noticed the packaging under the stick. It was an opk. Apparently I grabbed the wrong test from the cabinet. Talk about disappointment when I realized that.

beachdreamer, I know what you mean about getting used to the BFNs, it sucks. I barely get hopeful anymore. I used to cry over BFNs and now I usually just look at the test, shrug and think yep, and throw it away. However, I think subconsciously it does get to me because I usually feel real crabby and overly emotional for the next few days. I try to blame it on AF but I was never so PMS-y before TTC. This process sucks.
cali, I get like that the last few days of the TWW. It's like I know I'm going to test, and nothing is going to be any different, so I am extra crabby and sad. Then once I get that negative and it's confirmed, I'm over it.
