Hi there! New to TTC.... :-)

divadivine682 · May 20th, 2008, 08:20 AM

Hi everyone!

I usually frequent the coach and LV forums but when I saw this, I knew it was wonderful. Reading about all these wonderful women who are ttc like me is refreshing...Im not the only one (I don't have many people to talk to about this in my life). We just started trying this month for baby #2--our son is 5 1/2. DS only took about a month and a half to concieve but now im getting impatient (I know, a month and a half trying so far is really not a big deal...but still)!!! My breasts are sooo sore (and feel swollen), very tired, and its got me wondering....I am not due for AF til about friday and took a hpt yesterday...BFN! I've been browsing through the threads and read that some of you have had a BFN but then tested a few days later for a positive reading....If you could give me some hope here, it would be appreciated!! P.S. There are two tests left calling my name!!!! *Cant*do*it**Wont*test*....trying to keep my anti-test willpower!!!!

Welcome. Try not to test until the first day of your missed period, or the day you are supposed to start. I know it is hard to do. But you can do it. We will wait with you. We have a club now for premature testers, lol, you should join.

Good luck and keep us updated!!!

divadivine682 · May 20th, 2008, 11:58 AM

thank you jenniletv! Unfortuantely I did take another test (before I read your post!) ....nothing...But I swear I wont take one til saturday (the day after my expected AF). Regardless of it being too early to take one, its still so very depressing not seeing the results on that stick that I was hoping for.

jenniletv · May 20th, 2008, 02:15 PM

Yes that is depressing, especially when you are like 4 days late and still got a negative like I was a couple of months ago. I was really bummed. And then last month, we BD’d as much as we could and on the days it said to and still a BFN. I am at currently 8 months of trying for the first.

Welcome to TTC!!

I agree, it is sad when I get a BFN too!!!

divadivine682 · May 20th, 2008, 03:53 PM

I was just hoping to conceive very quickly like last time I got prego with my son....took less than 2 months! When I discovered this forum a few days ago I seriously felt relieved...like there are people out there that are going through the same as me (and more)...I've read some sad stories, and some happy ones as well. Im hoping to graduate from ttc soon...Only a few more days and I'll know!

jenniletv · May 20th, 2008, 04:39 PM

Good luck!

divadivine682 · May 20th, 2008, 06:00 PM

thank you! I just dont know....my boobs are seriously KILLING ME! I remember when I was prego with my son, I couldn't even have the water beat on them in the shower they were so sensitive. I would say I am about 80% that right now with how they feel. Plus Im just so tired...but I suppose it could be the crappy, rainy weather too....why do our bodies toy with us?! I wish AF symptoms were totally different than prego ones!

jenniletv · May 20th, 2008, 07:54 PM

^ I wish the symptoms were much different too. My boobs kill me that time of the month and since I have never conceived before, I would not know the difference. That throws me each month. I think, man my breasts feel and hurt differently, but in the end it is always AF. Who knows, maybe you'll "graduate" as you hope too. Keep us updated and don't test til at least Saturday. Some here have not gotten a positive until a fews days late.

divadivine682 · May 21st, 2008, 10:18 PM

I think Im spotting...damn AF

Could it be implantation spotting?

divadivine682 · May 22nd, 2008, 03:59 PM

hmmm...I don't know....now it kinda looks like AF. Could that also be implantation bleeding disguised as it? I have no clue...oh well, on to next month.

jenniletv · May 23rd, 2008, 08:58 AM

Implantation bleeding is either bright red/pink or dark brown I believe and is no where near as heavy of flow as AF.
