I am here! We are getting ready for the U2 concert tonight and my 4yo DS is sick. Of all the time!

I am feeling very hungry, bloated still, mild cramping. But I feel that way about 99% of the time! I am going to try to wait until Sat to test but I will most like start POASing on Wed. I have NOOOOO self-control and am a chronic early tester. At this time, I do not have any tests in the house.

We are listing our house for sale tomorrow and I have been keeping very busy working on that. The house is currently spit-shined and ready to go! We found a house locally that we ADORE and really need to just break even on our sale of this house. Wish us luck!

And to all!

I'm here I'm here! If I let myself report every symptom, I'll just upset myself, so I'm just kind of being cool (or at least trying to).

If I had to take a wild guess, I'd lean more towards a yes than a no, but I'm so afraid to buy into the symptoms, you know? Does this make sense to anyone?

Anyway, I'm now 6dpiui and I had HORRENDOUS pain yesterday am. I called my RE's office and they said because I had so many ripe follicles, I was going to be in pain. They said it was to early for anything to be wrong, so just hang tight. I asked if my strategy of being curled up on the couch in a bathrobe with hot tea was a good idea, and they said yes

How's everyone else feeling?

I hate to buy into the the sypmtoms too. The only thing I feel is bloated and thirsty. Some mild cramping every once in a while. I keep telling myself not to get my hopes up .

[nevaehbrandonkim]

The waiting game is over early for me. Only 8 dpiui and AF is here. Well good luck ladies and thank you for your support!

[Tiegarlillie]

ughhh I am so sorry.
AF is due for me on saturday, two days before poas.

Tiegarlillie-

I completely understand how you feel. My only symptoms to date have been a tired feelings some days. Headaches and just a few twinges here and there but I assume it is gas. I am so hopeful that this is the month still though. My blood test is not until the 3rd however 2 weeks would be the 2nd. I think I will test on Saturday or Sunday. I have been told by all of my friends not to but I really don't know how I am going to resist. I already have 5 tests ready to go! Good luck to everyone! My prayers are will all of you.

I am really sorry hon! I wish you best of luck next round. I completely understand were you are at right now.

YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE THIS STORY!

My SIL and BIL announced they're pregnant with their second "Oopsie" pregnancy. To quote them, " we only had sex once in 6 months" You did not learn the first time?? Not that I won't love another niece or nephew but they are NOT in the position to have more kids.

Anyways, it bugs me but I am not beat up over it. They are just not the sharpest knives in the drawer! Sometimes I wonder about my SIL and think it all really isn't an "oopsie", kwim?

AFM- I was very crampy last night and I have had TMI AHEAD diahrea for the last 24+ hours. I could just be sick but who knows????

[Tiegarlillie]

I think I will test on day 10 piui, i can't wait anymo re. I have been cramping. I am sure AF will arrive with my luck I just keep going about my day as normal as possible, coffee and all. I would really like to have a glass of wine though! lol

[Elisa1978]

I am going to start testing tomorrow (8 DPO) - I know it is too early, but I can't help it. Testing helps me manage my expectations so that by the time I go for my beta on Friday I have a pretty good idea what I'll hear.

The only difference in the way I feel is that I am having hot flashes and headaches. The hot flashes may be a side effect of the Clomid - the only other time I've ever gotten them was Cycle # 1 which was my only Clomid only cycle before this. However, that was also the month I had the chemical pregnancy, so maybe it is a good sign??

I have to wait for a BFP before I can do anything, no blood work So it's either BFP and then tests or AF and start all over!

MY RE does not do b/w either for a IUI cycle. You must test positive then they do bHCG.

[Tiegarlillie]

Ya that is how my RE does it too, after a positive test. I POAS this morning and it was negative. I am 8 days post IUI. I feel like AF is coming for sure.... I wonder if there is still hope

Its too early! This coming from a chronic too early Poas-er! When is AF due??

I bought tests today. There are 3, so I am going to try to hold out until Thurs........"Try" being the most important factor.
