Weekend Warriors

Ok, girls... I know several of us are on our 2WW and are around 10 dpiui...

How many are going to break down while sitting around at home this weekend and HPT?  I'm about to go nuts and send DH to the drugstore for a test, and it's just Saturday morning. LOL!

I am praying for us both! Please let Wednesday be the magic day. . .

Yes, my bbs hae been sore for a few days, getting a bit worse each day. I truly have no clue if AF will come. It's a toss-up, too colse to call. I would normally say AF is for sure coming, but I have been having heartburn and I NEVER get heartburn normally. EVER. But, it could always be some weird new thing I have naturally developed, who knows?

Hang in there everybody. I am waiting until my blood test Wednesday.

nevaeh--I am also 12dpiui, and get sore bbs every month. I tested at 9dpiui and got a BFN as well. I think it is just too early to test until the day you expect AF.

i also am about 12dpiui and I tested this morning and got a BFN. I have mild cramping and sore bbs but I always get sore bbs when AF is supposed to start. I was really hoping for a BFP this month since this is my 5th IUI and statistics are that after 6 iui's chances of it working are slim. I am about ready to call my RE and tell him we need to do something different cuz it just is not working!!!  All tests came out good and I should be able to conceive (only doing IUI because of DH's vasectomy)....grrr..it's frustrating. I feel like something is wrong with me but everyone says i'm fine!

Sunshine,
ashort tested at 14 dpo and got a BFN but a BFP at 15 dpo.  So, you may be testing too early.  I tested on Sunday, 10 dpo and also BFN  :(

Sheri,

Awww... keep your chin up, sunshine! It's still early and might be a BFP yet!

I wanted to test this morning to see if the mystery line is still there, but I didn't have a test with me, so I saved my pee in a cup! LOL!! I've hidden it under the sink. Eww.

I'm going to go to the drugstore around 11 am and grab one and then use the stored cup o' pee to test.  I'm leaving for a biz trip to Baltimore today, and I just have to know if that line is still there before I go or I'll nibble my nails down to nothing on the plane!

sheri:  I would like to think you have the most promising signs because that is exactly how I feel today I have no other pains just slight back pains, slight cramps, headache and grumpy. I guess I am just trying to stay positive but scared to take a test.  I stayed away from our forum all weeked and finally caved in tonight

stilltrying101: so does that mean we could have it in our bodies as early as implantation but very slight that HPT can't detect it yet?

Ladies I am not sure if I will check tomorrow I am scared? is it too early? I am supposed to check thursday or wednesday but since It's driving me crazy again ....aggggggg what do you think?

Alrighty. so from what I have found it looks like implantation it is! Guess I answered my own question.
hCG: Once implantation occurs, the pregnancy hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) will develop and begin to rise.

OMG I SOOO think you are getting your BFP this month, actually you really already got it! When do you go in for your Beta? Isn't crazy how were so scared to be disappointed that we convince ourselves it can't really be true! anyway thats my take on it, you got thi one!!
HeatherJo:
So glad someone can relate! When I was preg before, I had perfect complexion for the first time in my life. So a zit to me = a BFN, but I'm sure it's all in my head!
Helen72:
I hear you, I just want to know one way or the other too by the end of the wait. Its the waiting to know that is worse than anything.

So ladies, here is my question: You know the hormone the HPT are looking for (HCG, right?) I know it's supposed to double every day, but when does your bdy start creating the hormone. The day of conception or the day of implantation?

Sheri,
OMG!  This line business can drive anyone out of their mind!  I hope the line will be darker tomorrow though.

I am trying to wait till tomorrow but may breakdown and test tonight.  Unfortunately, I don't feel any signs of being pregnant so it's either too early or it's a BFN.  Towards the end of the 2ww I don't care which one  it is I just want to know the answer.

I didn't test this morning because I was going to wait until tomorrow morning, but I broke down and just tested again a few minutes ago.  *sighs amusedly*

The line is still there, same strength as it was yesterday, which I suppose is no surprise. Hasn't had time to increase much from the last test. It's really faint, so I still don't know what to think.  It was sooooo strong the last time I was pregnant at this stage, but I was pregnant with twins, and I suppose they could have implanted early.

Today I have no sore bbs, no cramping, but I have a massive headache.  Could be sinuses or something.  I also feel like I could use a long nap!

Ugh.  This waiting STINKS!  I suppose I can try testing first thing in the morning tomorrow, and if the line is still there, it would be really unlikely it's still trigger hanging around, eh? I have to fly to the east coast tomorrow and one of my flights is on a TURBOPROP!  EEEEEP!  I get airsick, and now I can't take Dramamine because of a potential pregnancy, so I'm going to be throwing up by the time we land. :(

Baby dust to all, and keep us posted if you do decide to test!!!

10dpo, cd24 here. I am feeling like Sunshine does, plus a major migraine and cramping last night. But, Sunshine, the thirst is a GREAT sign--every woman in my family had that as a pg symptom.

I tested last night and it was a BFN. I know it was too early, but I was trying the $1 hpt's where you use a cup and dip the stick for a test drive. Other than looking and feeling as if I swallowed a mini-bowling ball, I am just cruising toward the inevitable arrival of AF.

StillTrying--I hear you about zit patrol. This is the first month my face has finally been clear, but I am attributing this to a change in my meds. I had a teensy weensy little guy on my face yesterday, and I was like "Oh, jeez, here we go. . ." It is gone now, but my hopes are still not high about a BFP. Still, it is nice to have a good complexion again for the first time in almost a year!!!

Helen--I guess I understand your logic about waiting until Monday, but gosh I hate Mondays already, so I don't know if I could handle doing it on a Monday if the news wasn't bad. I'd rather ruin part of my week end than the whole week! But that is just me. Plus, I just want you to test becuase I am selfishly curious!!

Sheri--Ooooooh, I think you are going to be our BFP this month. Try not to eat your fingers while biting those nails! SEriously, for a line to come and go like that, I would say it isn't the trigger, especially after all those days and half the dose. But, as we all know, one can never be sure until it has been at least 2 weeks. It really sounds good though. Really :-)

Sheri,
try testing tomorrow first thing in the morning.  If I got a faint positive I would be testing every day to see if the line is getting darker.  I hope it's a BFP!

Sunshine,
your symptoms soun so promising.  I'll keep my fingers crossed for you Monday.

StillTrying,
at 3 dpo you cannot assume that anything is a sign of either BFP or BFN.  I guess you'll have to wait at least a week.  I hope this is your month!

I am 9 dpo today and was thinking about testing tomorrow but afraid to spoil my weekend.  So, I'll probably test Monday...

Ok... so... I'm 12 days post trigger, and the doc had me only take 1/2 the normal dose (5000 units).  The rule is it takes most women metabolize 1000 units per day, so I should have metabolized all of the trigger 7 days ago.  Apparently FRER is frighteningly sensitive ... but I don't see how that line could have been from the trigger.

I guess I could have the slowest metabolism of ALL time.  Judging my the size of my bum that probably isn't too far off. LOL!

Ugh!  Now I know I should wait until Monday morning and see if the line gets darker, but this is going to drive me nuts!!!  Maybe it was so light because I had just had about 4 glasses of sprite 2 hours prior and it was diluted.

Ohhhhh... of COURSE I broke down and tested.  I had tested like 3 days ago, and I saw a very faint line (CVS Early HPT), and assumed it was the trigger.  The next day I tested again and there was nothing.  

I went to Wal-Mart tonight for some things and got FRER because I'm going out of town on Monday and wanted to be "armed" on testing day.  It was a 2 pack, so I lost my patience and tested and it was positive!!!!  It was pretty faint, but it wasn't as faint as the line I saw 3 days ago.  

DH wasn't overly excited because he said the line was pretty faint, so now he has me wondering if it is somehow trigger still and I'm wondering if the CVS test just wasn't as sensitive as the FRER test.  They claim to have the same sensitivity, and CVS gets great ratings on their kit, so I don't know what to think!

I don't want to jinx myself, but I do feel the same way I did when I was pregnant with my son.  Low, AF type cramps, and I've been incredibly tired the last few days.  That all could be from the injectibles and stress though.

*biting nails, not knowing what to think*

God bless you guys, I'm only 3dpo and I'm already resisting the urge! How retarded am I!
I should just buy hpt's by the case...hmmm, I wonder if BJ's or Cosco's sells em that way!
I woke up with a zit this morning, so I'm of course assuming that means that I'm not gonna get my BFP this month.

If you do break down and test be sure to let us know.

other going nuts how are you feeling?

I am having some gas pains and feel bloated. some  wierd breast sensations/pain which come and goes. but that could just be pms!!  and very thristy!  felt like I was going to die of thirst this morning when me  & dh were out grocery shopping.  had to buy a soda.  which I immediately opened once we paid!!   LOL

oh well, stay strong and hold out a little bit longer.  :o)    Jen
