To tell you the truth, I never waited long enough to get any pregnancy symptoms. Actually after TR I had taken no kidding bout 16 hpt. Yup, a bit anxious is definitely and understatement!
With my sticky bean now, I was expecting AF on Nov. 3rd, but in Oct. she showed one day late too, so I told DH that it would come probably on the 4th. The 4th came and I told DH, if we BD, AF will show some kind of sign and if not then we'll take a test. So we did, and nothing. I went and got another hpt and to our BIG LONG AWAITED SURPRISE, we were pregnant!
I wish you the best of luck and so much baby dust to everyone TTC! Good Luck!

Ms Licia, when is af due? because if she hasn't shown her ugly face yet, it just may be too early also. Some won't show up + until af is late because there isn't enough hcg in the urine most tests will show up when the level reaches 50, so It could be too early for you!! Don't give up until the witch sings!! Trish

Ms Licia you are now 11DPO?? My last pg although ended in mc, I tested at 9dpo and got my +, and the only reason I tested so early was because I thought I was going to have to have a MRI, and thought well I'll go ahead and test to make sure and it was +. I did mc due to low progesterone so we are getting that fixed!! Sending babydust your way!!!! Trish

Hi gals! This is my first time here. Have not had my TR yet but I will very in a month or so hopefully. I am 41 and have 4 grown kids. Is anyone here an older mom? I am so new to this that I don't know what to expect. I guess I just need some friends who understand. All of my other friends think I am nuts for wanting to do this. My kids are fine with it. My fiance' is 46 and has no kids. We are new to this and don't know a lot about this whole baby making thing! I didn't have to do anything to have the other 4 except....well.... YOU know!! Ha Ha! Look forward to meeting you! Lsia

You use a basal body thermometer- it's more accurate- if you go to fertility friend, you can find all the tips for it- it's really not that difficult once you get in the hang of it! My lengths are 3.5 L/ and 5.0 R. -Traci

At 6DPO I started having a shooting pain in my right nipple. (sorry TMI!!) I also had more creamy CM than was normal for me. I started testing at 8DPO- but only because I'd gotten a really great deal on ebay! On the evening of 9DPO I started having painful cramps- not exactly like AF, more like sharp pains. The next morning my temp took a dip and I was so sure I was out. On 11 DPO My temp went back up, which was a good sign, but I was terrified to see a BFN so I didn't test when I woke up. I then talked to some ladies on FF who convinced me to test, and I got my very faint BFP with SMU! Sorry for the book here!! GL and babydust to you! -Traci
