Pregnancy Info HOME

I usually get NO symptoms before AF other than tummy bloat - no cramps, nothing until the day of arrival. This is all different....Before my lmp on 7/11 I didn't feel anything but I knew it was coming because i have always, for the last 10 years, had a very consistant 28 day cycle, bc pills or no pills. Cynthia, my dd is 22 mos and up until 2-3 weeks ago was all about going on the potty, but now is waiting until AFTER she's gone pee to tell us "pee-pee". I am wondering if it's because we moved on 7/20?

I bet that has something to do with it. We moved last august into a new home and for about 2-3 weeks, our baby woke up in the middle of the night and wouldn't fall back asleep unless he was with us (which I personally don't like to have babies sleep in the bed with the parents). He was always a good sleeper...sleeping though the night at about 5 weeks....we got through those tough weeks and he went back to normal. He is now a sleeping champ!!!!

That's what she's doing! Out of the last 2 1/2 weeks I think we've gotten 2 nights without her coming to us....And my hubby is a huge softie and brings her right into the bed...OK, so hopefully this too shall pa__s...

I bet is will pa__s!!! I know it is tough...just hang in there!!! She'll be fine - - sleeping through the night and peeing in the potty in no time!!! Just give her some time to adjust. :-)

I'm sure it will...It's always nice to know there is someone else out there who's gone through or is going through what you're going through at that time.....LOL - did that even make sense?

When you have 3 kids and a couple businesses to run and a dh to take care of.....that made more sense than you think!!! Although, I do share the 2 older ones with their dad. That's why there is an age gap....I am on my 2nd marriage and my dh didn't have any kids, so we thought to try for one (or two together)! I have been trying for 7months with this one....I said I will give it a year because I am 38...so we will see where it goes!!!!

They do say on average it takes 10-12 mos to conceive....Not that it makes me feel any better about it, and I wouldn't expect that to really help you feel any better per say....Anyhoo, I do really appreciate your insight....I don't have too much experiance with this stuff - my dd is my first and i have a younger brother but he's only 11 mos younger than me so no experiance there, so i kinda rely on people such as yourself to kinda help guide me along the way....So, in a word, thanks. =D

okay so all this talk about hpt's, even tho its not morning here (CA) i decided to pull out a dollar tree test, and i swear i see a very very faint line, i showed my dh and he says he sees it, but very faint. Now, either we are absolutely crazy and have issues or its there....i know its early, 8 dpo, so im off to get a first response or a digi test. and test in the morn. I have issues...hehe, been trying for a year now, and two m/c we are very anxious to have one actually go to term. Me too, i am on my 2nd marriage dh has no kids. I have two 10,12 from previous marriage. I got my son to potty train with starburst. I couldnt potty train him for anything, but we got his favorite candy and left it by the toilet so he could see it, and taught him if he went potty in the toilet he would get a piece of that candy, I swear it worked like wonders, he learned that in a day...and the rest is history....

MrsIke....what symptons are you having? Did you use Dollar Tree or 99 Cent Store test? What level can that detect? Did the line appear within 5 minutes? Let me know what happens with the digi!!!!

No problem.....I certainly don't have all the answers, but anytime I can share my experiences and they are helpful I will!!! Before we bought our b and b I was a high school teacher/college prof, so I like to share!!!! :-) I, conversely, have learned lots from several women on this board!!! It's great to make connections with so many people going through similiar situations!!

mrsike!!! was that line within the time limit!!! wow!!! I can't wait to see what you have to say in the morning! Sounds like we have similar situations!!!! Good luck - I hope this is it for you!!!

dollar tree, supposedly reads 20...but i will say this, i tried a first response and a dollar tree last time, i got neg on first response and a faint line on dollar tree. So i keep the xtra 15 bucks out of pocket for name brands in the store and buy tons of them for dollar tree. As far as symptoms I have not had any but the cm., and a mild headache (which could be anything), however when i get impending af, around this time, i will have really bad menstrual migraines, really sore bbs, bloating. I have no sore bbs and no obvious bloating. I also have been using fertileaid and fertility blend the last month and a half. Which i swear tamed my usually very hostile pms. I also this week have been taking baby aspirin. my ob/gyn recommended it when i found out i was pregnant, but the women in other posts say their RE's say beforehand. So i just been taking them. so we will see, I hope it will be indeed a pos in a few days...I feel alittle silly

yes, it was within the time limit, I havent noticed a issue with evap lines with the dollar tree brand, i have with other cheapies, but not these.

i can even go a day later and there will still be no evap line. I think its been like 5 months since i started using these.

well then it sounds like you may be in for a bfp!!!! that's awesome!!! are you going to test again tomorrow with another $ tree? I have tons of ic that I use and I have the digital and 1 FR when and if I get a couple positives on the internet cheapies. I look forward to hearing your results. I am on the east coast, so I will probably have to wait a bit for your news it seems.

The internet cheapies I use tend to get an evap line....which is disheartening to say the least....but I know the difference!!!
