January Chatty thread

[A Squared]

Suellen, From what I've heard/read a line is a line is a line as long as you read your test at the right time. Hopefully you will see that line darken over the next few days. I'm not so great at reading faint lines, as the only line I ever got was a big, fat, dark one. All the other times I tested I got nada. Good luck!

hey guys so i have not tested againg quite yet im gonna try to hold off until tuesday morning.. but i had some small cramping today and when i went to the restroom this evening I had a brownish discharge.. i know that is wayyy to much info.. but it gives me hope but at the same time I am not getting excited at all... my nerves are killing me..

Swell-- i really hope its a BFP... have youtested again? lets us know as soon as possible.. that is so exciting for you guys..

Really quick...I tested again yesterday afternoon and it was not quite negative, but almost. I also tested this morning and it looks just like yesterday morning's test. I'm 12dpiui today. ERGH! I hate this.

Suellen-- I really hope this is your BFP. It may just take awhile for the line to darken. Good Luck and keep us posted!!!

I tested this morning and it was definitely a BFN. I am at 12dpiui, so I will test again the morning before my B/W to make sure it's still negative. But the accurcy rate is at 93% 2 days before AF is due so I'm pretty sure I'm not PG. The bummer part is staying on the Progesterone when I know I'm not PG. My plan is to ask for the HSG. If it doesn't look like I have a tubal problem I'm going to try two more cycles with this donor and then I'll switch donors and banks(I'm with the fertility center of California, in Orange County and San Diego). My counts have not been great and I can't tell if it's my donor or my RE's lab. I figure if I go to another bank, with a better guarantee, and the count is still low, I'm going to have a serious chat with my RE about his wash and his lab. (I had a friend suffer this problem only to switch docs and get pregnant). If there is a tubal problem I'm moving on to IVF. I figure at my age, even with great test numbers and a good ovarian reserve, I need to be aggressive.

Hope everyone has a great day! Babydust to all!

ld and starz - I'm so sorry about the bfn's! I completely understand the stark white space staring up and you and how it just makes me feel so completely empty and horrible inside. I also hate taking the progesterone when I know I'm not pregnant.

ld - I'm glad you have a plan. I think with this whole ttc thing you really just need to take charge. I love my doctor, but you have to speak up when you think something isn't going right.

No real news here. I scheduled bloodwork for Wednesday morning and will keep peeing away until then. I hope this is really it because I can't imagine how hard I'm am going to crash if it's not. BAD HPT'S!!!!!!!

Suellen and Starz-- I was just researching HPT's and found this website. It has some pretty interesting insights with regard to HPT's. (note the info about the faint line Suellen--I'm really praying that this is your BFP!!!)

Stay strong and hopeful ladies.

babydust to all!!!

Suellen - A faint line is still a line! I hope that this is it for you! I have everything crossed it is!!

Starz & LD - I am sorry about the bfn's and hopefully it is just too early still. Oh yeah and the progesterone just plain sucks anyway!

So I go in for blood work/ultrasound tomorrow to see how things are looking. I dont expect to see anything big sizewise as it's still early but I hope to see an increase in the # of follicles as I need all the help I can get with my ovaries!
