Lisa you should find out about that how you would test and have it be accurate. Sorry it's so horrible! Hopfully it works though and gives you a baby!
Chrissy let us know how your test goes!
Marriage is work that's for sure, the background things need to be dealt with as best as possible so when the things come up they aren't killing you everytime. I don't know what happened with you guys so I can't really say how to deal with it. My Dh gets jealous of my Ex but that has gotten a lot better over time. He realizes there is simply NO way in hell I'd ever go back LOL it's so laughable. He knows that now. He knows when I'm done with someone or something I'm done. So it's good. Really though it took a good year to get that issue dealt with. His Ex did some bad things to him so I can see why he'd be paranoid, I certainly would be. Sometimes it takes time. We are all summations of our past. Whether we like it or not, it's true. It's made us what we are today in everyway.
Now I feel psycho! No test to use with FMU - so I saved the FMU!!!!
Yep! In a "as sterile as I was going to get it" container - hidden in the fridge - waiting for me to go buy some tests!
Oh yeah! I will take it with... just like mom used to when we would have to take a "specimen" into the doctor's appointment. Yep... little container, sealed tightly in a ziploc bag - inside a brown lunch bag... what, so nobody could see the little baby food jar (that's what she used) of pee? Everyone knew what we were carrying in anyway. And what changed... how come I don't have to take pee samples in for my kids' doctor visits?????
Well.... My boobs tend to get sore with each cycle... so I really have no signs that a BFP is possibly lurking. AF due Thursday... haven't started her usual arrival warning thigh cramps. Then again - have never documented when they start compared to her onslaught! So maybe I wouldn't be having them yet... or maybe I am going to have one of my 35 day cycles and just shouldn't have any AF symptoms yet.
This game!
Lisa - I am so sorry Clomid is not being friendly! You complain all you want. We will tell your little bundle of joy what a trooper you were! Nobody says we have to love every part of the process! Keep your sights on the goal... it will pull you through!
Michele and Jessica - thanks for the support and free counseling. Marriage is a TON of work! I love my DH dearly... just some things continually loom in the background that we haven't resolved and they hurt us something fierce each time they rear their ugly heads in new matters.
Steff - hope you are feeling the sun shine and it's warmth today! That's all of us around you!
Christina - Debs and I picked the same dress... how's the shopping going?
Laurel... how's things with you?
Jennifer - hope you are feeling well!
Tonya... where are you? Did anyone ever email her?
Donna - you lurking? Fingers are still crossed for you!
Again ladies...check your CD's to make sure that they are correct.
Michele...Thank you for the prayers...I really do appreciate them!
Jessica...I have also read that Clomid can give false/positives on OPK's and HPT's. I know for a fact it also interferes with my monitor's readings too... I really don't know much about the HPT's....unfortunately with 2 months of Clomid...I haven't had to use one yet!
Okay...today is going to be better.... (I'm trying that mind over body thing...LOL!!)

Gosh Lisa that's just horrible. I was reading on the preg test paper they put in the box that Clomid can give a false positive, how do you test for pregnancy if you are taking Clomid???
Chrissy I would test again tomorrow morning and see. Marriage can be so hard. Me and Dh have done good through all the drama of last fall and winter thank God. 2 lost babies, me being just sickly, losing my tube- essentially over $2000 of Dr. B's repair sitting in a metal bowl in a surgery room, completely and utterly broke in a horrible economy.... If anything we have passed a major test in our marriage so far. I know we are good to go, we can withstand about anything. It's not like a boyfriend where your like - I don't think I want to see you today LOL UGHHH you live in the same house so those little breaks are near impossible! Hang in there, just try and talk it out. Arguing is just no fun. We argue but both agree that we love each other despite not agreeing sometimes. Usually one of us gives in, which is evenly spread it's not one of us more than the other so it works. My ex used to make me have stress gags, heart racing, completely enraged. He was so horrible.
My DH is much nicer, our arguments are very small time... We both are adult enough to admit when we are wrong so it works. I love him. He's a good man. Test again in the morning ok?? and see if it's +. I hope it is that would be a good thing for you two. Showing progress something to look forward to, it would make all the bs fall to the wayside I bet.

Just thought I would drop in and complain! LOL!
Well here is my update...I just took my 4th nights' dose of Clomid 150 mg. Well...I only thought my s/e were bad on the 50 mg and 100 mg! This time I am having awful dizziness, headaches, tiredness and HEARTBURN! I did some reading up and yes, it causes terrible heartburn! Food just doesn't seem to go down...so I haven't even been eating that much. It is hard to explain...just an overall "sick" feeling. All I want to do is lay on the couch....
I know, I know...I should just be glad that I am getting to take this medicine...if it brings me a beautiful precious gift in the end...then it would definitely be worth it all!
I really would like to catch that egg this month...
Goodnight.. Your sickly Clomid-taking TTC sister... Lisa

Oh Chrissy....we just never know in this crazy, crazy journey! The month that I got my BFP...it was a crazy month...with no signs corresponding...but somehow....somehow....I saw that 2nd line!! I was shocked!
Everything I have to cross I am crossing for you! I wish you the very best of luck...wouldn't it just be awesome??!!!!

Whoa! We were at the bottom of page 2... with no page 3!
Here to rescue us back to the top...
So... you all know my story this cycle... fighting during prime O time. One BD shot on CD13 - considered a "fertile" day by FF - but I had all the signs of Oing (lots of EWCM) days later. We didn't BD past CD13 cuz of fighting.
Today is CD28.... I gaged in the middle of the afternoon. But Eric and I are not on great terms right now. When I am overly stressed due to arguing... I tend to have to puke (not much of anything ever there, however). So I passed this afternoon's gaging off as such... stress gags.
BUT... I had one HPT hanging out in my purse from last month.... SO.... I POAS. Nothing, really! Would take it to be negative.
EXCEPT - I could tell where the other line for a positive result should be.... because the edges of the test strip turned pink there. I pulled the contraption apart... because I have seen on the board other womene have... just to see their faint lines.
I don't know. This is the cycle that is guaranteed to be a BFN.
Boobs are a little sensitive as of yesterday.
I told myself this was the cycle I didn't have to drive myself crazy wondering if we caught it... because all indications were that we didn't.
This TTC game... how do we end up pregnant by accident when we were younger... yet trying like the dickens - can't seem to figure it out!
I am just beside myself.
I didn't go buy more tests. So no FMU test in the AM. AF is due Thursday by FF's calculations of an average 30 day cycle. Guess I will wait for her arrival.
I would like a better system! All this waiting to O - only to be followed by the 2WW. Ugh!
Well... I am going to wait! Seems we need better abbreviations for all this - TTC just doesn't seem to cover the full breadth of this process!
