How much of a difference a day or 2 can make??

[Des_a_rae]

Okay I've NEVER been this far while ttc EVER!  I'm currently 13dpo.  I'm having bits of nausea but not all the time. I'm having heartburn and I NEVER get heartburn.  My (sorry tmi) nipples were really hurting these past 12 days but today they're not that bad at all. I do have a "tight" and "sore" feeling right above my breast and behind them. Not sure what that's about. I'm really really tired and at night I've been having weird dreams. lol. Every now and then I get a sharp pain in my lower left or right side of my stomach. My stomach itself has been feeling "full" and "bloated". AND on a more promising note my temps have been going up almost .2 everyday.  Todays temp was 97.7, yesterday was 97.6 and the  day before was 97.4.  Sounds good eh??  
SO today I take a hpg this morning and it was "no".  It was a digital one and I don't know what to think.  I've never been 13 dpo EVER.  Last month was 11 and that was only because progesterone and the time before that it was only 9!!  I'm soo confused.  Do yall think I still have a chance?  Did I test too early?  I'm trying really hard to be hopeful but I've seen SOO many negatives. :(   I pray constantly for a "positive".  After 6 yrs of praying you'd think I would've seen one by now.  In time I assume.  Anyways, please if you can help thank you so much. You can look at my chart if that will help. :D  Thanks again!!

Hi April,

I'm 40 now.  Got my BFP 1 day before my 40th birthday.  Am 2 months on Thursday.

Congratulations on your pregnancy!

Hi there!
Yeap, unfortunately I made it to 16 dpo and started. :(   Someone told me they think I had problems implanting WHICH is probably true because in August my RE put me on progesterone suppositories because my number after ovulation was only 9.1.  He wanted it much higher he said. WELL after that visit I decided to " try on my own for 2 months".  SO I'm SO worried that since I didn't use the progesterone this month, I messed up my implantation. :(  I pray not, but I just feel that way deep down.  I'm going to my gyno up here closer to home, going to start Clomid next cycle. I would this one but I can't see her until Oct. 18th!!  

Thanks so much for asking and Congratulations!!  I can't wait until I can say that! :)  I hope you have a very healthy and happy 9 months! :D

Hi, Thanks. Yes i have been through all this, pain, period late, IVF, brown spotting, HPT negatives all th time, sharp pains...and nothing.........

finallly pregnant, no pain, no brown spotting jut my breast was sore  like every month before my period...I am 6 weeks and 5 days ( so god help us!)

any news with you?

[Des_a_rae]

Hi April, Loved your story. Sounds like you went through alot but definitely blessed in the end AND all natural. :) I hope you have a happy and healthy pregnancy! :D  
As far as the pg thest. I did take a HPT at home yesterday morning and it was negative, that's why I was wondering how much a day or 2 could really matter.  I'm going to retest in the morning. That'll give me 2 days inbetween tests. I hope and pray I get a positive, i'll even take a faint one. lol.  Still no signs of AF at all!  Been having a sharp pain off and on again on my left side around my ovary kind of. And some weird feelings in my stomach.  Soreness, weird feeling cramps all at the same time.  Again, it's only off and on. None of these are constant.   Temps up a little higher again this morning. Gosh I'm praying so hard!   Thanks again for all your help. :D

des: what i mean is to do a HPT a day..did you do one at home today?
if you got  a (-) today and then visit a doctor sometimes th HPT doesnt work right

keep us posted

[April162010]

Hi des, did you do a HPT at home?... do it  it will relax you a bit

alliQ:  thanks  , I am 4 weeks pregnant in a natural way ( no pills, no clomids, no iui, no ivfs..)  I am very happy and taking day by day

I had 2 failed IVF because  the embyro didnt attach so i accepted because its a nature process and you can not do anything about.
My embryos were perfect and even i was 41 y/o then,  my eggs were good and the doctor was amazed but...didnt implant so there is nothing they can do about it


sally888....congratulations!...how old are you? (if you dont mind...lol)
keep us posted.....good luck to everyone

[Des_a_rae]

Thank you so much ladies for the encouragement. I really needed that!  Today temps are up again!  So glad to see that.  

AlliQ  Good luck hun.  Sending that same SSBD to you!!  Thank you so much for your replies.  How are you feeling today?

wanabb, congrats! :D   Sorry to hear about the heartburn and vomiting. :(  I'm so happy you got your bfp though! :)   I'm trying to figure out if this "tight, sore " feeling in my chest is from my breast being tender and sore OR something else. I know it's gotta be partly heartburn too.  I can't stand the waiting game. lol.

Sally, YAY!  So happy for you and congratulations.  I love hearing stories like these. They do give me hope! :D  

[Super_sally888]

I am now 6 weeks pregnant.  I only got a very very faint +ve at 14 dpo.  Then I got a proper +ve at 16 days.  So don't give up yet.

[wanabb]

it is possible (if you implanted late) to get a negative at 13 DPO then a positive days later.  I got a BFP at 13 DPO very faint and i had horrible heartburn from 6DPO and vomiting!  good luck i hope you get your BFP.  

[AlliQ]

des_a_rae:  I know, I'm sending positive vides your way and praying you get better results within the next couple of days.  It does seem like we both have great symptons!  Good luck!!!

April - congratulations on your BFP, that's great.  Good luck!

Wishing AF to stay away.

[Des_a_rae]

AlliQ, So sorry to hear that!  I pray you get your BFP this month!! It is awfully hard to go this long. :(   I always thought " oh i'll get pregnant when I'm ready".   Easier said than done.  I was shaking when testing and hesitant but my mom kept saying " just do it".  I pray after 2 or 3 more days i'll see that positive. :) No signs of AF still. I have really awful periods and i'm usually in bed a week before I start and I still feel GREAT as far as af cramps. lol.   I to have been a lil constipated.  I hope that's a plus sign for us. lol.  Good luck hun!! Definitely praying for you! :D

April, thanks for the reply too! :)  I'm sorry you've had 2 failed IVF's. Sorry you had to go through that. You always think that if nothing works you still have IVF and I pray I don't have to go that far but there's never a definite that even it will work. :(   Praying for you too!!  

I'm going to retest in a couple of days and pray really hard that AF don't show up. !  Thanks again you two. :D

[April162010]

I was 7 daya late and when to the doctor and i was pregnant, he did an urine sample in the office and then i when to my OBG 5 days later and he took blood and confirm

I ahve been TTC for 2 years, 42y/o 2 neg IVF's

Good luck and let us know what happen...do the HPT test and then go to the doctor

[AlliQ]

I am in the same boat as you.  I am currently 16dpo IUI and I'm afraid to my test.  I now have sore nipples, have been cramping on and off the entire time after the IUI and my nausea comes and goes.  I have also been very boated and have major constipation (sorry tmi).  I completely feel your pain.  I've been ttc for 5 years and know that when going through this if it doesn't work I get AF when the ttw is up, but this time I've been feeling different and weird and not AF yet.  I too pray for positives all the time and know that my mind can play terrible tricks on me.

I think I'm gonna either take a test tonight or tomorrow morning, the results will  not change if I keep waiting.  I just gotta do it.  

I wish you all the best, I know it's hard to keep seeing negatives, but one day it will be our turn soon.  Keep up the positive attitude and you always have this community to vent to and be there for you.

Good luck!!!
