Hey Faith, haven ot heard from you on here in a while! Nice to see you posting! Hope all is well...Any who, I am CD 13. No symptoms to report. I am supposed to be o this week. as of Wed. Dh and I have bd this morning again! ;) Hope I hear of some BFP's in the days to come. good luck ladies!
Here I am approaching CD 47 after a cp with no sign of af! I feel just like I did when I was pg. I've taken some hpt's but they all come up with these stupid lines that just really irk me. Since theyre so faint the digi isn't even picking it up. If I am, then I am and I'm gonna be so excited! But...if I'm not...I'd really like for af to come so I can get another chance to try again. :( Is this normal?
I'm 4DPO my lower belly above my pelvis was killing me yesterday on the left side and in the afternoon it shifted to the right. I am super bitchy too so besides that
I have no clue. SSBD to you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nicole---i have my fingers crossed 4 u.
smjmekg--aww dat *****...keep da faith
lillady--i know dat it ***** to wait..this wut we all have been going through.
jenny-good luck maybe a baby shifting around in there.
---as for me i have been constipated for like 4 days now..usually when af is near i get gassy and bloated..im not neither..i only get bloated when i eat..af is due tomorrw i shall c
Due tomorrw Faith, we must not be cycle buddies anymore! I am due around thrsday. So if she don't show her face I will test next monday! I'm sure she will. Only signs I had were my breast hurt about 4 days after BD'ing, and I had cramping a bit about 1 week after. I think I'm going to start charting this coming month.
Hey Faith- I agree with your doctor as far as waiting it out when testing. I think it just depends on the levels of HCG detected at that time of testing, some have higher levels than others.. so while one person can get a (+) at 12dpo..some of us can't... so anyways just wanted to share my thought on that.... I am glad to see you on here..sorry about your wisdom teeth! I hope you feel better! today is CD 14...I am supposdly o'd all this week we will see..I don't have anything to report. So I hope for BFP's for everyone TTC!
Based on anyone else's previous pregnancies (if you've had them of course), have any of you experienced evap lines? Evap lines that appear within the time limit to read your result, but had them on every single test you take, day after day? Ir how about an OPK that gets darker?
angella--wow how did we get so far apart...af comes on cd 14 for me..havent failed in 2 months..i have a 27 day cycle...
trice--thats true..right now i would be highly upset if i am preggo..bcuz they have me taken pain pills and antibiotics..this may i fact delay my cycle even more..cuz i dnt feel lyk af is coming...
nicole--u sound preggo...just give it a couple maore days then retest..hcg may not be strong enough but..like we all say a line is a line..ur preggo...congrats...
Nicole-I think you are prego!!! Yippeee if we are all right! Keep us posted girl! How many DPO's? just curios?
Faith- I knew what you meant girl ... it's all good! (lol) I feel you about the Anitbiotic's .. I guess time will tell ..you said the 14th right? Hang in there hun!
no 14 dpo i suppose 2 get af..which is tomorrow..and since these fools gave me vicodin i have no pain..but i normally dont get cramps..last month i did not get ne signs of af..i just got it as surprise..but i will c tomorrow...i am not taking the pain pills as subscribed...every 4-6hrs..i snap it in half and take as the pain comes..but mainly the swelling bothers me but oral gel is a big help..i do take the antis like im suppose to..i just hope this doesnt affect my cycle..if i am or am not preggo
HPT Negative and Pregnancy Still Possible
I am 13 DPO and my HPT is negative. Could I still be pregnant?
Even with a negative pregnancy test before missing a period there is still a good chance that you are pregnant. About one-half of pregnant women have a negative HPT pregnancy test on 12 dpo, and one-third of pregnant women test negative on 13 DPO.
Go ahead a do a pregnancy test as early as you want, just don't expect it to be positive even if you are pregnant. One in 4 pregnant women will not get a positive pregnancy test until the days after they miss a period. That's why most doctors recommend to do a pregnancy test only after you miss your period so you won't be confused by a negative test.
Pregnancy testing before a missed period can often give you a "false negative" pregnancy test, a pregnancy test that's negative when in fact you are pregnant. The #1 reason for a false negative HPT is testing too early.
A home pregnancy test (HPT) done 1-2 days before a missed period is positive in only 1 in 2 pregnant women, and even on the day of a missed period 1 in 4 women will have a negative pregnancy test.
Testing after a missed period will often give you a better answer to you question: "Am I pregnant?".
So why does it take sometimes that long for a positive pregnancy test?
•You miscalculated when you ovulated and when you expect your period.
•Implantation could have taken longer than expected.
•You did not ovulate at all and that's why your period did not come.
11 DPO and I took a dollar store test this morning and accidentially flushed it down the toliet! I couldn't believe it. I am pretty sure I am not preggo because my cervix has dropped again and I am bloated to hell! I feel like I have PMS but no cramps. I am so confused. I will check my temp just to see if it goes up or down but I definitely feel af going on! I wish it would start so I could check to see if my cysts are really gone or not. I will keep you ladies updated!
LMAO...DANG TOILET..U CANNOT RELY ON UR CERIVX..AF IS DO TOMORROW FOR ME..NO SIGNS OF THE HEFFA..BUT LAST MONTH I FELT LIKE THIS A NEW SYMPTOM "SYMPTOM FREE"...BUT I FELT SO SICK BOUT AN 1HR AGO..I WANTED TO POOP AND THROW UP ALL AT ONCE..MORE THAN LIKELY ITS THE ANTIBIOTICS. OH WELL I BELIEVE AF IS COMING..IM NOT WORRIED..CUZ IM SO USE TO NOT BEING PREGNANT....BUT I AM VERY EMOTIONAL...I CRIED YESTERDAY BCUZ MY GRANDMA PASSED BURGER KING AND I WAS HUNGRY..LOL..BUT MAYBE AF JUST MAKING ME A WIMP.
LoL Faith! U sound like me! 4 some reason I think this dirty aunt of mine decided to take an early trip! Its horrible! No show yet! But feel her making her way to the front door. Next month maybe. SSsssssssssBD
I'm CD9 and I've had cramps every day! They come and go and are very light not painful but still noticeable and annoying! I don't think were gonna try this month.
angella--i dont know if af is coming today or not...but if she does..then so be it..im gone take a break til the new yrs..im mean its not exciting ne more..quit frankly im bored..and just too keep waiting every month is a massacre..i need to wrk on myself..
brittny--get some midol..it works with or without af
Well DPO 12 and nothing but yellowish discharge (sorry tmi) that I don't believe that I have ever had in my entire life... I am going to wait until dpo 14 (the day before my bday) and test again and if not then it is to the doctor for blood and an u/s. No signs, slightly crampy but nothing major.
nickie--dat sounds good.. i would say wait til ur bday and test..but since ur getting blood work even better.
i was browsing the web like always looking for a cure with these bleeding gums of mine..i did not know pregnancy was a sign..af has not shown yet but today is not over just yet.
I'm now on CD 49 or 50! I called the Dr and she said she believes that I didn't ovulate after my chemical pregnancy. So, I'm supposed to go in this week and she'll give me a urine test and make sure it's negative. Then, I'll get a dose of provera and maybe start clomid. DH and I had some fun this morning, and I expected my cervix to be low...nope. It's high, it's been high for a while now. My breast soreness has come and gone. I'm not really nauseated anymore. But...I figure that at 7 wks since af, if I were pregnant, I would have gotten a strong positive by now.
nicole--just give it sometime.if ur not preggo..then once ur cycle gets back on track im sure u will get a bfp.
ME-- af have arrived i believe..tmi but used a qtip...n shes comin on down..lol..told bf dats it for this yr.2010 i will try...but again like last month no signs of it...so far af is up far.im just waiting for her real appearance
Well no Af as of yet. but she keeps wispering in my ear that she is on her way.. I have been having cramps for about 4 days. I wish she would come so I can get this over with and try again...Like I said befor, I am starting to do the temp thing now. So we will see if that helps.
Nicole I think u r pregnant and o'd late so it wouldn't show up on a hpt yet. angel I think u r 2. AND Vickie. C'mon Vickie... Yellow discharge is SO a sign. Lol. SSBD 2 u all!!
I MYSELF NO MORE TRYING..JUST KEEPING IN TOUCH WIT U GUYS...NO MORE CALENDAR SEARCH OF OVULATION...2010 WILL BE HERE IN NO TIME..AND I WILL TRY NE THING NEW
And faith, god I hope 2010 is ur year! I wish u wouldent give up, but maybe that what it will take, to stop trying, and your BFP will show! Just stay with us, because ur like one friend I look forword to hearing from, and I don't need to test! I'm sure AF will show! I refuse to waste my money on something that is not going to be BFP!
Faith-So did AF show or not? if not ...there is still hope! if it did ..then I understand about taking a break! Emotionally it is just soooo draining! Keep the Faith Faith :)
NIcole and Vickie - I agree with mrspookie I think you both may be Preggers! Keep us posted.
As for me... no signs or symptoms...today is cd 16..me and dh bd Saturday. We will see how many HPT's we tally up this month .. I wish much much SBD to all!
Well everyone, no signs of af yet. and im extremely nauseated. i have an appointment with my ob/gyn tomorrow morning. they're just going to to do a urine sample and then give me provera and maybe clomid. i tested yesterday and got a neg opk and a neg hpt. so i think its safe to say that i just didn't ovulate this past almost two months.
Well ladies count me out as well.............:^(....I started Saturday night..about 10pm......and its always been very light since my lap surgeries so I cant say if its light due to anything...so Im out and hopefully The Lord will help me out next month...Hubby and I have a plan...After my cycle ends this week...we gonna BDing every other day and I will be taking lots of vitamins ..........no matter how mad or not in the mood I will be...we gonna be BDing............
Well I'm on CD26 so few more days! And we shall see what happens. My breast are killing me, something that use to be a sign my AF was very near! Hope we get a few BFP's this month!
And befor u take those meds to bring ur period on, make sure u get a blood test, or ultra sound! People have gotten a negative urine, and positive blood!
im just baffled. its been nearly two months since ive had af. if i were pregnant i think it would be showing up in my urine by now. it makes no sense other than i just didnt ovulate.
Like I said in my last comment, some woman never get a positive in urine, it has happend. And I have even heard of woman not getting a positive blood test. It was not until they did an ultra sound did they see anything. If your OB was smart, he or she would order both. Sorry.. I just wouldent want to see you take that stuff, and end up miscarring..
Hi Everybody, How are you all doing. Im looking for cycle buddies...
I am young, Im 19 and for some desperate reason i am TTC. I really dont know why but i just really want to. All of my very close friends are pregnant or have kids younger than 2, every female i know (LITERALLY) is either pregnant or have a new born, and i have 5 God kids under the age of 3. SO i am SURROUNDED by babies.
Before Septemember, i wasnt thinking of having kids but around Oct. 7th i started having all the preg symptoms. I stopped taking my bcp and started taking prenatal pills. Then my period came but it was only for 3 days and it was mostly spotting and semi heavy which is odd for me because i always have HEAVY periods that last for 6 days. I went to the doc on Oct. 28th and they said my blood test was neg. I was in denial for a week because i never had those symptoms before and i know someone who still eneded up being preg after a negative blood test. But anyways, since i got the negative test i have been really desperate to concieve and i do not know why.I guess because i got used to the thought of being pregnant and talking to my friends about it made me excited.I think about being pregnant all the time, i had atleast 5 weird dreams about it in the last month, and i am constantly checking my CM to see if im ovulating. My friends dont really understand what im going through because none of their pregnancies were planned and they were 18 and younger when they got pregnant. Im on CD14.
Im just looking for avice, support, or someone that can relate to me!!!! THANKS SOOO MUCH.
MRSPOOKIE--yeah im so done with charting right now..
NICKIE--happy early bday..and damn wut a bright gift..lol.
ANGELLA--i hear u..we have made hpt factories blow up..i bet they are not in the economy break down..lol..i hope u get ur bfp real soon. TRICE--yeah the beautiful red,dripping,lmao..but the beast is here..cramp free..but a different symptom my back is killin me i can hardly stand for two mins..
NICOLE--best of luck sweets..my fingers are crossed..
LIL LADY--i know how u feel..best of luck next month..
"AF IS HERE NO CRAMPS..JUST EXTREME LOWER BACK ACHES..I WENT FISHING TODAY AND SAT DOWN THE WHOLE TIME..NEVER NEEDED TO CHANGE PAD..TMI..BUT THATS ABOUT IT..TALK 2 U GALS AT A LATER TIME..OH BTW IM STILL GONE BE ON HERE EVERYDAY..JUST WANT BE MENTIONING SYMPTOMS,CD,OR NE THING LIKE THAT..IM LETTING DAT GO TIL NEXT YR."
well...i dont think im pg. when i was pg in september i tested positive a week after i missed my period. i did miscarry and that was total h.e.l.l. i pray to god that my next pregnancy is a sticky one and i dont have to go through that again. thats partially why i contacted my dr instead of riding it out. i obviously have irregular cycles and its not helping me conceive at all! lol. In the past months when af has been 7-8 weeks apart i havent done anything. but by doing that i wasnt helping myself at all. im really hoping that my dr will take this into consideration and that we can find something to make me ovulate again.
good luck to everyone still in the wait!!! i hope we get some bfp's!!!
Well I might be out this month before AF shows. I'm going on a week long exercise so I'll be away from DH. I don't know when I'm gonna ovulate, won't be able to do my temp charting while I'm gone, so I'm just gonna BD when I get back and chart and see what happens...I hope we don't miss O, but not sure with how this last cycle went. Only 29 days last cycle, which is odd cause it was so short. Oh well, we'll see how things go.
I got my BFP!!1 My period is 4 days late took 2 tests last night said positive but they were faint. Took 3 more today and they all were positive! I having a lil stomach pains and it feels like my period is about to start, but i will wait and see, don't wanna get too excited!
I did post something a lil while ago and i hope it doesnt get over looked. Im new to this site and i posted a couple things on here and no one seems to respond. Im just looking for people to relate to during this time thats all.
I took a HPT on October 29th the morning AF was due and it was negative about 3 hours later I started bleeding lightly. I only bleed 2 days and not very much which is weird. BF even made a comment about AF being very light and short. I've been having cramps every day on and off and my boobs are soar and getting tingly. Usually I get the breast tingling sensation a few days before AF since the mc but last cycle I had no AF symptoms at all. I've had really bad gas and some constipation. I don't have gas very often but it's like it was when I was pg before.
So my question is do you think I could actually be pregnant and just implanted late and what I thought was AF was really implantation bleeding and if so how heavy is implantation bleeding typically?
I really dont want to waste any more money on negative tests but I just have this nagging feeling. I'm propably gonna get a Dollar Store test tomorrow just to set my mind at ease.
good luck heather! I hope af is a no show today!
I can't shake the worry still. I don't see the doc again until the end of the month they are not treating my like I'm high risk but I almost wish they would monitor me a little more! Had my first morning sickness this week usually I'm just dry heaving and not wanting to eat anything except cheerios and halloween candy! I feel like I'm showing already but just look fat right now. Anytime I get gas or the slightest twinges in my belly I freak out. I didn't feel very nauseous today wish also is making me nervous. Poor DH asked this morning "is there anything that won't make you worry?" I just want to know my bean will be ok!
Best of luck ladies lets get some BFP's!!!
ssbd to all!!! *:O) erika
im in so much pain..im 23 and wisdom teeth just decided to grow in..but i have an infection..and gums are super swollen..they gave me a hpt..12 dpo bfn..the lady "rn" she said if im trying i may not get a bfp til..af is due or as late as a week later...she said i would be surprise of how many women get bfn and are actually pregnant...so ladies i guess we are not the only people like that...maybe hpt are not as good as they use to be..anyway...baby dust and prayers for u all
I have no clue. SSBD to you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I took a HPT on October 29th the morning AF was due and it was negative about 3 hours later I started bleeding lightly. I only bleed 2 days and not very much which is weird.

I really dont want to waste any more money on negative tests but I just have this nagging feeling. I'm propably gonna get a Dollar Store test tomorrow just to set my mind at ease.
As for me no AF yet. She is due tomorrow. I think she is starting to come.
