I really thought....
I really thought this was going to be my month. I really did. I tried to be grounded and I tried to be objective and I tried to be realistic and I still really thought that this was going to be my month.
CD30 (AF due anytime from yesterday to Wednesday)....my 'symptoms' actually are more about what's NOT happening....
No cramps
No breakouts
No irritability
and some of them are about what is....
increased hunger (significantly increased)
back pain (lower and upper (around bbs) )
bbs getting fuller and sorer
last night, had trouble falling asleep and woke at 4:30 for about an hour and half
easy to tear up/emotional
I just don't get it. I really don't. I POAS'ed on impulse this morning (i had peed when I woke at 4:30, so there wasn't as much when I took the test at 7), but I thought for sure that it would scream at me....PREGNANT, since I woke feeling icky to my stomach (the final straw for me, really)
I just don't understand. I accept, but I don't understand.

It sounds like you are awfully tired..... I have been the same and I just got my BFP : ) Test in the morning with FMU if you feel comfortable?!?!
I don't know! Maybe I should just wait a couple of days to see what happens. I really think that I could be, but I don't think that I could stand to see another negative and have the roller coaster of a day that I had today! I am so exhausted and my head is killing me....I'm thirsty and can't wait to sit on my couch and relax for awhile. I still have sore bbs and no cramps!
I guess I am just scared that maybe the bronchitis screwed something up and I didn't ovulate when I had CM and so I'm not really due yet. I don't know...you know how I hate to test!!!!!!!
SueGre - it was the generic of an EPT, I think...so it's a blue cross. I bought a generic of First Response to use whenever I get up the nerve.
If I wasn't so tired, I'd be excited too but I can't think about anything but shutting my eyes for a minute. :)
It may sound corny, but I love you guys!! Thanks so much for always being there to sound off to and to ride my coaster with me ;)

I'm hoping and praying for you!!! Did the line have any color? Is it a pink dye or blue dye test? Blue dye tests can be iffy, but pink dye tests are much more reliable. I don't think FRER gives evap lines, typically, so if it was a FRER it might be a real BFP. I hope so, anyway! Fingers and toes crossed!
Can't wait to hear from you with the +news!! I will be praying you do get an amazing BFP tomorrow!!!
Thanks everyone - there is no one else to ride this rollercoaster with me and I really appreciate you all!
My hopes are renewed as I am getting sicker throughout the day (I remember the one day of morning sickness and couldn't be happier right now to be feeling it!) and my bbs are getting sorer. Maybe I was just a late bloomer?!?
I will certainly keep everyone posted! :)
Thanks, again, for your constant support! I'd be lost without this site!!

I have always been told that positive, any positive, even a very faint one is positive. I have a friend who recently had the same thing happen. She tested with a + - test. Aftre three min. it only showed neg. She went back to the bathroom a few min later and dug it out of the trash and sure enough a very faint positive was there. She tested again 4 hours later and it was definately positive.
Hope it is the same with you. I recently had confirmation of my BFN and hearing about someone else finally getting their BFP gives me hope.
Good Luck and Blessings.

I can't get a picture of it (and if that doesn't tell you how faint it is, nothing will - LOL)
I have to go to the store when my charges are picked up. I'll get another test and do it in the morning. This is why I HATE testing!!!!

Ohhh Ohhhh can we see a pic of the faint line? can you do a BETA? go buy another test hold it in for 4 hours and then do the test!!! Ohhh I really hope it is!! keep us posted.
I know but I always have and I have NEVER gotten an evap line on any test I've taken....this has happened to me before, so while I should learn from my mistakes, it does tell me that there is at least still a chance. I'll test tomorrow morning and know for sure.
It could mean that it's a chemical, too.

How long has it been in the trash? They say not to interpret the results are 10 minutes.
Oh my! Oh! I don't know what to do - i just yanked my test out of the trash and there's a faint (FAINT) line. I've never had an evap line so I don't think it's that - I think that maybe my pee wasn't strong enough since it wasn't FMU?????
Is this even possible? Oh, what am I going to do?? I have to wait until tomorrow morning (which is when I was originally going to test anyway!!!)
How faint is too faint to be real??

I'm so sorry that you didn't get your BFP, but as the others said, don't give up hope yet. It's so tough because pregnancy symptoms can be so similar to AF, but you know you're body and if you're feeling different in any way, that can certainly be a good thing! I know you'll accept whatever happens, but I'll be hoping and praying that you get good news soon! :)
Anything is possible and you are not out until AF shows up! Fingers are crossed for you .
I am right behind you - I was very laxed this month with temping and using OPK sticks but normally I feel ovalation pains and the last 2 months like 3 days after I felt the O pains my bbs would be very very sore. And this month I didn't feel a thing. I am actually due for AF on Saturday according to parenthoodplace. I have not a symptom in the world that AF is coming. What a shocker it will be if I get a BFP - we have been trying for 3 1/2 years a 2 miscarriages so I would be on CLOUD 9.
Keep me posted.

I conceived last year after 7 years of TTC. Miscarried in 6 weeks. Needless to say I was devastated and depressed. Few days after that, I happened to talk to a friend of mine whose sister had just had a baby. The baby was diagnosed with some chronic brain disorder. The doctors said that they have to wait a few months and perform a brain surgery (imagine a brain surgery for a 2 month old!!) and the guarantee for cure was only 40%. My friend was saying how the entire family wished that the baby had never been born, or had miscarried or something.
Then it struck me. I felt this was a message from God. If He isn't giving you something now, it means He has something better in store. Or He is just making sure we don't go through a heartache.
Everything happens for a reason, and even though the reason is not immediately apparent, one day you'll know it. Like you said, just accept it, you'll understand later :-)
Having said all this, I wish you a BFP, and a happy, healthy, bonny baby very soon!
Take care!

I know that anything is possible, but does anyone think that I still have a chance??? I'm still not cramping, have slight heartburn, still hungry and bbs are still sore on the outside....
I ALWAYS have cramped for at least two days before AF came in previous cycles. I don't think I can be off by more than a couple days on my O date.
Any words will be appreciated!!

How discouraging! Hang in there! It's not fair what we have to go through when TTC and the rollercoaster can be draining, to say the least! It's not over until AF shows...so don't give up completely yet! ***HUGS***
Ohh I am so sorry ;o( .... you are still not out, AF hasn't show. Our minds and bodies can be so predictable, but sometimes they aren't and we get confused with our symptoms....but you know that AF and pregnancy symptoms are or can be just about the same, so it really doesn't make sense to think of any symptom before we actually are late for AF and we get a BFP!! ...........BUT for us TTC it is so hard not to think about all that we are feeling...so I uderstand how you are feeling and I am sorry AF might be on the way for you, but I am hoping you get a late BFP instead.
I really don't know much about your TTC journey, but I am sure God is watching over you and His plan for you are in place, we just have to trust HIM.
