BECCA CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I JUST KNEW IT!!!! I COULD FEEL IT OVER THESE LAST COUPLE DAYS AND I KNEW YOU WERE PREGGO!!!!! H&H 9 MONTHS TO YOU!!!!!!

AFM: 5 DPO with a little temp dip. it's implantation (I know, a little early but I am being optimistic) HOWEVER I have a question???

HELP DO I DISTURB TODAYS TEMP??? We had people over last night (I didn't drink since I am post-O) but I didn't go to bed till 1:30am. My normal bed time is between 10-11pm. I still temped at my normal time of 5:30am which was a solid 4hrs of sleep before temping. WOULD YOU DISTURB IT??? Thanks in advance ladies! Will do personals this afternoon!

Thanks Adrianne-

I think the hardest part will be that I'm not going to get to tell most people until we get back. I don't want to tell anyone over the phone. :)

Good morning ladies.

I woke up and temps strong and 97.9 even though i had no blankets and was shivering cold! Soooo...

I managed to hold my potty all night and woke up and decided peeing in a cup then dipping my digi would work. So I did....

That my friends is a BFPPPPPPP. A BFP. BFPP. I cried. and I started shaking. My hubby woke up as I climbed in bed and asked and I showed him. He then was like son of a b*****, ok well I'm on cloud nine!

TaraCG - I used to have pg dreams all the time when I was TTA and I would wake up clutching my stomach panicked! It's so strange to feel so different about it in such a short time! Hope it's a sign for a BFP!

Eglax- I looked at your chart, your definitely still in the game! for higher temps tomorrow! I'm not as thirsty as I was a few days ago, so I'm not sure what that was??? I've definitely become a pee-a-holic too! LOL I think my problem started with OPKs (I used 3 1/2 boxes this cycle!) HPTs are more expensive so I've reigned it in a bit, but I still want to POAS like 10 times a day!

KG-Maybe it is time for a new Therm.! I have been able to control myself and only take my temp once a day. I'm with you feeling fine, not a symptom in sight!

AFM- 11dpo=BFN again (with FRER). I was very disappointed this morning, but I'm okay now. On the good side my temps are holding steady. They only went down .03 from yesterday, last month on 11dpo they really started to dive so. I'm not giving up hope yet!

Question to all of you who have been pg before: When you felt twinges or cramps or odd things in your uterus area, was it always exactly where your uterus is or kind of all over that general area? I don't really get cramps from AF just a slightly dull ache in my lower abdomen. I have felt "things" down there, but I think it's because I'm really, really paying close attention now, when I never did that before. Any insight? Thanks!

Everyone have a great day and enjoy what you have instead of dwelling over what you don't have!

Good morning ladies! After more of us start checking in, I'll come back and do personals!

taracotta: That is a weird dream. I hope it's a sign for you! The only thing that I dreamed last night was that someone stole my jewelry. I hope THAT'S not a sign!

eglax: Yay for the good temp! I'm glad you're friends with thermy again. Could you maybe get your thermometer to have a talk with mine? Mine is being sooooo rebellious, that I'm going to have to send it to permanent time-out. I don't think vaginal temping is for me, either, as I'm lucky I can find my mouth as soon as I wake up.

AFM: I woke up last night and took my temp for the fun of it. 98.5. Then I took my temp at my regular waking time. 98. Definitely not as good, but still above the coverline. Then I wallked around the house, made coffee, went to the bathroom and just for comparison, took it again. 97.8. I HATE my thermometer. It obviously has issues. I'm skipping the battery and getting a new one today. Oh, and after my reminding everyone yesterday during my "cheerleading" episode that we may be testing too early, I POAS today on one of the fancy 6 day early FRERs. BFN. Booooooo! Why, oh why did I do that? Guess I'll try again Monday if I can. Right now, though, I feel nothing. No symptoms. Couldn't even make any up, that's how normal I feel.

Good luck ladies!! Talk later...

VJ- Your numbers do sound high. If you want multiples I don't want to give you false hopes though. It really can vary a lot from pregnancy to pregnancy. I remember with my first surrogacy my numbers were super high. Close to 800 around what would have been 12 dpo. Everyone thought for sure I was having twins. But it was just one baby. Then with my twin surrogacy pregnancy, my numbers were 7 at what would have been 10dpo! Didn't seem high at all but they were doubling at a faster rate. I think the doubling rate shows more then the beta number. Good luck to you....either way, it sounds like a strong and healthy pregnancy!

Becca- still stalking over here :)

Morning Ladies-

Taracotta-Wow! that was some dream. Hoping it comes true and you get your BFP!

Sadin-I agree this is such a supportive place. If I temped vaginally, I think I would totally freak dh out. He thinks its odd enough that I take my temp everyday. Who knew there were so many mouth breathers out there?

AFM-I'm feeling like I'm back in the game. Temp was 98.3 this morning (on both sides of my mouth). YAY!!!! I think I'll forgive you, Thermometer ;-). Not as high as its been but its in an upward pattern and I'll take it. I looked back at my last three cycles and turns out I always start spotting on CD 27 in preparation for AF. I've been spotting 4 days already and today is CD 27. I'm still hoping its implantation. Took a test bc I have no self-control-BFN. I knew it would be. I just hope I dont run out of tests this cycle. Im like a pee-a-holic. And, soooooooo thirsty last nite. Drank 3 large glasses of water in a one hour period. Thought it could've been a salty dinner but dh, who's usually as sensitive to me re: salty foods, didn't feel as thirsty. Still thirsty this morning, as a matter of fact. And I felt small pinches on the right side of my abdomen as well. I know sometimes I look for symptoms. These felt really obvi.

Enjoy your weekend Ladies! Lets get some BFP's!!!!! Baby dust to all.

Hi ladies. I'm glad to have found this supportive group. Thanks for welcoming me.

Eglax I actually just switched temping methods. I used to temp orally but I realized that I sleep with my mouth open (my temps were all over the place). Now my temps are more regular and have actually been higher than the past 4 cycles (could be due to my thyroid swinging to the hyper side, and also to the progesterone supplementation I started last week).

Tara it's nice to find a DPO "twin"!

Crossing my fingers for all of us on this board!

Eglax--usually it doesn't but if I can't breathe through my nose I have to breathe through my mouth while taking my temp.But usually if my mouth is like really dry I notice it is affected by a few . or so.I sleep with my mouth open almost every night atleast to one degree or another.
