Emily: What do I think? I think you are a POAS addict JUST LIKE ME!!!! I know Alisha is going to tell you the same thing... she was 7 days LATE before she got a BFP.... I personally would not give up hope. Your temps are never this high, especially at this point in your cycle. I would test again in the morning... no wait, test on Christmas morning with me. That is the day that AF is "due" to show for both of us.... I am testing at about 4am (when I get up for my morning pee) and then I will post the results right after! ----- I got your card yesterday and I love it!!!!!!!
Alisha: How is Yesi feeling? I hope she is 100% better in time for Christmas! Did you have time to sign up for the free offers through the "baby" companies... if not let me know and I can email you OR post links to the sign up page, that way you do not have to miss out! -- I hope you are enjoying your Christmas Break!!!
I have the next 5 days off! I am so excited!

I just wanted to say - I AM 10 DPO and I did not test yet!!! WooHoo, I am so proud of myself.... in all of the months I have been TTC (with Kailey, Trent, and this time around also) I have only held out until my test day one other time! I hope I can do it again!

Hey girls, Good for you Jacque! I'm proud of you for waiting. We all know what happened to me, so I'm all about the waiting thing! I hope that you have a BFP around the corner! It's funny that you asked about the coupons, b/c I haven't had time to sign up. I keep saying to myself, you have to go find those websites! I really do need to, and maybe I'll have time next week. If you can send me a link, awesome! Okay girls, your Xmas cards are going in the mail today. I sent a "mini" along with them. It is a picture of my family and I that I decided to send with Xmas cards b/c they are so tiny and cute. I got the pics done at Sears Portrait studios, and they are all very nice. There will be a link to go view the pictures within the next 48 hours, so I'll let you know how to access it as soon as it is up. I really hope that you will both go check it out, b/c there are some to die for pictures of my sweetie, and I even bit the bullet and took one of my belly. It is actually my favorite picture b/c Yesi is hugging her baby brother or sister, and she has the most precious look on her face I've ever seen. Please check out the site when I get the link. I hope that both of you have a BFP coming around the corner! Merry Xmas! Alisha

Hey, ladies! Merry Christmas Eve! Okay, what is up with my temps??? I am dying to test! Okay, Alisha, how far along were you before you got a BFP? My temps have never been this high, but I'm still just sure that this month is not it. Hmmmm. Gotta finish up my wrapping. Then work two more Christmas Eve services today, then go to one Christmas Eve service. We're gonna go ahead and stay the night at my parents' house to keep us from having to get up too early. Then we do breakfast at one grandparents' house, lunch at the next, then dinner at the other's again. It's a long day! Have I ever told you guys that I have all 4 of my grandparents still alive? Crazy, huh? And they all live here, so do aunts and uncles, and most of the cousins. Pretty neat that we're all in Memphis. DH just cooked me pancakes, eggs, and bacon. So sweet. Maybe a new tradition? Alisha-can't wait to see those pics! Tell Yesi we hope she's feeling better! Hug that tummy for me! Jacque-how are your temps looking? How are you feeling? Is this it?? Have you still not tested? If not, you're incredible. Praying for you both. em

Less then 20 hours until I will test!!!!! WooHoo! I am so excited!!!! Alisha: I cannot wait to see the photos.... I bet the photo of Yesi and your belly is beyond awesome!
Pampers: us.pampers.com/en_US/signup.do Huggies: www.happyhealthypregnancy.com/offers/ml.aspx Enfamil: apps.meadjohnson.com/forms/jsp/Efb/Efb.do Similac: welcomeaddition.com/joinnow.aspx
Between all of these sites I have received OVER 100$ in coupons, cans of formula, diapers, wipes, and bath products.
Emily: Your temps are still high.... but hold out. Test with me on Christmas Day. You are going to be so busy today and tomorrow. That is so awesome that your grandparents are all still alive, all of mine have died (so has my mom). They were all so sick though, it was a blessing. Merry Christmas Ladies! Love and Hugs! Jacque

Is this to good to be true? ? Do not get excited yet..... Ok ladies, it is 6:30 am on Christmas Day. I tested at 2 am, even earlier then I said I would. I waited and prayed while I was sitting on the toilet.... and looked at the test after 3 minutes. I used a + or - EPT test.... then a few minutes after that (basically after the shock of it being negative again wore off) I got up... and looked at it but this time under the light. I do not have my glasses on... and I can see a very very very very faint line. So I turn the stick at an angle, and yes... I can see the line BUT IT IS SO light.... I think I am willing myself to see it, I knock it up to being tired and go back to bed.... 6:20am I get up to pee again, and look at the SAME test... I can still see the line. I check my cervix, it is still hard and I have a bit of yellowish creamy/eggwhite CM. Not sure what is going on... I do not want to get excited... but maybe my Christmas miracle will come true. I want to test again, but it is 6:34am on Christmas Day I live in the middle of NO WHERE and EVERYTHING IN a 30 mile radius is closed AND THAT WAS MY ONLY TEST.... what to do..... As of right now, at least until someone else sees the line or I get a "real" BFP I am going to stay call and NOT get excited..... I just want to give you an update like I said I would. Merry Christmas! Jacque

Jacque, Ahhhh!!!!! I hope that you're pregnant! I'm just sure you are! I did test this morning and BFN. I didn't take my temp though, because we spent the night out. But, I haven't started...I have BARELY spotted, but no cramps, etc. Who knows, but 99 % sure I'm not. We've had a great Christmas though. So fun! Scott got me a band that matches my wedding band to go on the other side of my ring. I love it!!!! I've been dying for it. Anyway, not bummed yet. The day is too great. Let us know, Jacque!!! em

Woohoo!!! I wanna know, Jacque! I've still got a little spotting, but no AF yet. Don't know what's up, but my temps went WAY low this morning. I think for sure she's on her way. Can't wait to hear from you, girl. Let us know! em

Emily!!! I love you, I think you are just as excited as Mike and I were....
That being said... note to self, EPT test are not error proof. I compared my test to those on POAS.com, and I did get a FALSE positive. I woke up this morning to Mike leaving, he came back with 5 pregnancy test. I took one... and it was a BFN. We were both devastated...... I am really glad I did not get my hopes up. A few minutes later Mike told me he wanted me to go get one of those at home sperm test.... I have talked about them a lot, but never got one. I was scared that the results would not be good... So I went to Walgreens (and of course saw EVERYONE I knew) and picked up the test. He took it right away - it was like a little spunk chemistry set.... lol - and well, it was very very very positive! We were supposed to wait 72 hours since his last ejaculation.. we had sex on Christmas Eve, about 28 hours ago and it was still that positive, so he has a ton of swimmers!
So, the good news it that I am ovulating and Mike is potent.... we must just be one of those couples that take between 6-12 months to conceive, after all.... that is the average. So, here is to Month 7 of TTC and an October baby!
Thanks for all of your support ladies.
Jacque

Jacque, So sorry to hear about your stupid false positive. I know that you and Mike must have been so disappointed. I'm so sorry, sweetie. Cheers to a new year of ttc! This will be my 10th cycle, so I hope this is it. I just told Scott that I think I'll make a new appointment with doc. I spotted for almost 5 days before AF came this month...that can't be good. What do you guys think? Thanks for all your love and support. I love you gals! em

Hi girls, I'm so sorry for you both. It has to be so hard to go month after month with your hopes up, only to be disappointed in the end. I was really hoping for the two of you this time! Well, I'm kinda' bummed tonight. A friend of mine from work is dying of cancer. I can't talk about it much right now b/c I'm still in shock. She was just at work 2 weeks ago, and now the Doctor told us all to say our goodbyes. I went to see her tonight at 7:00. They are saying that she might not make it through the night. Anyways, I have to go for now, but I will try to get on in the next day or so to give you the link to the photos, and update my ultrasound photo. Take care girls, and I'll keep praying for you both to get your miracles. Alisha
