stupid update

tested Sunday morning and still got BFN. was totally confused because of the symptoms I'd been feeling. 

stupid AF showed up yesterday... as I was walking around the grocery store. had to sprint to the bathroom. no warning signs of her arrival AT ALL, but now I am pretty sure I'm dying. I'm starting to think the "pregnancy" symptoms were all in my head.

also, I bought a thermometer at the g-store yesterday to start taking my temps everyday. now I guess I'm a real charter, instead of being half-assed. 

sooo cycle #4, here we come!

Re: stupid update

  • Sorry to hear that mandee. I'm sure after you chart you will have better luck. I'll be thinking of you and sending you lots of baby dust.

  • Aw, boo. I'm a half assed charter too. I decided I'll buy a thermometer and start really charting in March if I don't get a BFP before then. Good luck!

  • I hated it when AF reared her ugly face.  I am sorry that you didn't get your BFP and AF showed instead.  Phantom symptoms are the worst.  I had them one time before I got pregnant, and it was the worst. I had convinced myself I was pregnant, and then when AF showed I cried.  It will happen for you soon, good luck with charting!

  • Charting will be so much better for you. It takes some of the guesswork out of it. Plus, like Hayes said, it's always fun to get back on the horse. tee hee. Hope next month is your BFP.

  • yeah, I'm definitely a tad disappointed, but not discouraged at all. I know I'm still early on in the TTC journey and I'm actually pretty excited about getting to know my body, as weird and corny as that sounds. thanks for all the good thoughts, ladies!

  • Sorry, Mandee. I was really hoping that this would be your month. Good luck and have fun trying!
  • Sorry Mandee, that sucks.  I think AF should be showing for me today or tomorrow, so hopefully next cycle will be a lucky one for both of us.

    I actually prefer charting - there's something empowering to knowing what's going on with your body and where you are with your cycle.  Good luck with it!

  • So sorry, Mandee.  AF is a biotch.

  • I'm with the others, charting = good for knowing.  I had a few days there things threw off charting (ie, booze and a fever) so AF surprised the hell outta me, yesterday.  Awesome.  Not. 

    Good luck MandeePants!

  • I made sure to get on the nest as quick as I could this morning to check for your update. Sorry to hear that it was AF instead of a BFP. Good luck for the next cycle and enjoy your "practice" time with Sean.

  • Bahh. I'm sorry to hear this Mandee.

    Charting is the best thing I did for my body and after six months of trying without charting, it only took me two months to get pregnant when charting!

  • Bummer! Boo on AF for showing up when she's not wanted.
  • So sorry Mandee.

    Hopefully charting will help.  Hang in there.
