Well guys, af came on sunday and just like musikmaker, I had no symptoms.....Usually I would start getting cramps a few days ahead...But nothing, I could have sworn that this was the month.

Anyway this musical chairs of bding, waiting, anticipating and then let downs, this is wearing me down. I'm gonna take a month off to try to get my spirits up and get optimistic again. I'll probably start again in august.

Good luck to all of you in july!

Lol notpatient! Believe me I have my weaknesses! They usually come in chocolate form (brownies to be exact)

when I first started I gained about 10 pounds...Then lost complete intrest in bread and sweets. I got soooo turned off of most of the stuff we sell because I had overindulged...Too much of a good thing I guess! Helped to take the pounds off though!

Now I just enjoy the treats when we get new products!

Hey, what if when I do get pregnant I start having food aversions and work actually makes me sick? That could really "suck". Imagine the boss running around on the verge of pucking from the smell. Lol !!! Not too good for business I guess lol!

I don't know jozzie! It doesn't sound like such a problem considering where we are right now! I'd take food aversions over the waiting game any day! I wouldn't worry about it, cause many woman don't ever experience morning sickness.

Good for you on the pounds...Unfortunately for me, my husband is a huge carb junky and it's hard when it's in the house. I have to lose about 15 and somehow I don't think getting preggers is going to help that! At least I don't work around brownies- I don't think I can over do it. I would just get bigger and bigger! I think you have will power!

Well, I am starting to get the itch again. I know we most likely weren't successful, but i'm still having a hard time waiting. No symptoms still. Actually, there is one symptom...I'm crazy and counting days again! Lol

still waiting for some good news from one of us!

Ok...Well this am I woke up and had to take a test! Even though I have no sympthoms other than tender breasts (a tell tale sign for me of af) I went ahead and tested anyways.

It was a bf?

Im not due for af till july 1 or 2 but I may have seen something? Probably just wishful thinking though.

After checking out that web site called 2weekwait.Com and seeing all those pregnancy tests with the "oh so faint" lines I think I may have convinced myself that its a deffinate maybe.

I feel like I may be crampy but I can not tell for sure. The only time I think I feel a pms twinge is when I think about af???

I am really going nuts this time around...A few days ago I was soooo sure that we missed again but after visiting that site im not so sure?

Ttc sure messes with your head!

Omg jozzie- I am so anxious and excited for you!

You need to go out and buy an "early response pregnancy test"! Take it first thing in the morning....You should be able to tell now if you're due around the second. A faint line is usually a faint, or early positive! Any test that says you can test 4 or 5 days earlier generally detects the hormones as low as 20!

Are you going to start something here??!!!!!! We need some good news!

I don't know how you haven't taken a thousand already. I could just imagine seeing something...I would be clearing out the test aisle within minutes (not to mention the bank account)!

Let us know!!!!!!!!! :d

Ok...So...Tested again this am and the same thing. Verrrry faint line and I mean very! Still thinking positive but could be nothing. Like I said before I want this so bad my mind may be up to some tricks.

Its almost like I can see where the line is "supposed" to be.

I just got home from work but I think im gonna run back into town to pick up an early response test.

Tomorrow is canada day and we are helping friends move...And party to follow. I must know for sure now!

Trying to stay positive!!!

Will let you all know the out come soon!

Arghhhhh!

Jozzie-sounds like exciting news! I will check back tonight to see if you have great news!!

I am still here- haven't wrote in a couple weeks. I have been reading along for the last couple of weeks and I thought I would fill you in. I believe I ovulated yesterday on the 29th. Had light cramps wednesday evening and more thursday morning. Also yesterday I had very sensitive teeth(to the air and to cold ice water). Very strange never had this before. What the heck does that mean? Probably nothing at all. Anyway, feel fine today. Don't think it was our month-just that feeling I have. But I have my fingers crossed. I am due for my period on the 11th of july if this was in fact my regular 27 day cycle. This is only our second month trying. Oh and by the way we tried the every other day method. It sorta makes you go crazy the days inbetween like you aren't doing anything to help make a baby!!!

I went to that twoweekwait.Com and oh my gosh- I am obsessed with reading women's symptoms at their tww!!! How fun. You will have to check it out!

Run run run! Buy 2! Lol

sounds real promising, and you should stay positive! A faint line is good news! I can hardly wait, I can only imagine the excitement you're going through jozzie!

Well, don't forget about us! We want to know also!

Hey shelbes- I know what you mean about the days in between! I always start wondering if we should, that maybe we'll miss it. I even wonder if the last night was enough! Luckily this month, my dh has been supportive of me taking advantage of him on some of the days in between! We're trying as much as possible since the every other day method failed last month!

Omg I hope we have a positive on this post!

So I ran back into town and picked up the early response test. I have taken 4 pregnancy tests since af ended which was around june 9.

The first one was on about june 10...Dont ask why, just felt like it. And it was deffinatly a negative. It was an exact pregnancy test.

The second one was on june 29 which was yesterday. It looked like there may be a line but, like I say I really really had to look very hard to see it. I held it right up to my eyeballs, up to the light bulb...The window. I was also an exact brand test.

I took another one this am and it was slightly more noticable but still it looked like the place on the test where the line is supposed to appear...Also exact brand.

I have not mentioned to dh that I have been "peeing on sticks" each morning because I wanted to know for sure. I really wanted to show him a definitive yes/no this month.

So then after I tested with the early response test I think I got my answer...The control line is a very dark pink and the test line is a very very light pink. Its actually a colour and not just a faint "something".

So I called hubby upstairs and asked him to take a look at something for me. I said "there is a pregnancy test on the sink...Tell me if you see one or two lines"? He looked, and said he saw two lines but one was light pink. Then I showed him the ecact brand preg thest I took this am and he said he saw something on that one too!

I still did not know what to think so I called the 1-800 number on the early response test and spoke to one of the nurses. I told her what I saw on the test and she then asked me some questions and confirmed the fact that the test was indicating a positive!

Im still not fully convinced because the line on the test does not looke like the line in the picture on the box. So im gonna test again tomorrow just to triple check!

Omg...Im freaking out with excitement and dh is already making plans for the babys room but I just dont wanna get my hopes up just in case.
I guess this is what they call "scared"?
But yaaaayyy!

Just dont know if I can believe it yet...But want to sooo bad. Will set up an appt for a blood test for sure!!!

I have taken some pics of the tests...Will see if I can post them!

Yayyyyyy! So happy for you jozzie! A line is a line from what I understand! Coloration is not as important....So happy for you! Please keep us posted! Wishing you the best of everything and a happy healthy baby!

When's your blood test?

Yayyyyyyyyy! We finally have a bfp on this post!

Let's keep it going....Who's testing next? I'm not until the 11th.
