BFN – and way early, too :(

Yup, not-so-lovely Aunt Flo appeared this evening.  This is only cd25, only 11 days after I inseminated.  I really thought I might be pregnant this time – had all the cramping and bloating I had with my chemical pregnancy this summer – and actually got my hopes up a bit, so Aunt Flo’s arrival this [...]

cd 42: Aunt Flo Arrives

Okay, y’all.  My period *finally* arrived yesterday.  I don’t know what was going on, but this was the longest cycle I have ever had.  Perhaps my body and clearb.lue pregnancy tests are conspiring against me to get me to spend money – I spent over $30 on 4 pregnancy tests (the good ones with the [...]

not preggers :(

I took a pregnancy test last night and it was negative.  This was not a surprise, but it isn’t as easy to get the negative results now as it was earlier on.  I haven’t actually gotten my period yet either, so I suppose I could still turn out to be pregnant, but I don’t think [...]

and … no

Nope, not preggers.   I actually think something may be wrong.  Until I started TTC, I always had a *very* regular cycle.  Not regular down to the exact hour on the exact 28th day like one woman I know, but regular enough that my cycle was always 28 to 30 days long.  Not the [...]

long time no post

visited 4 states (not counting those I drove or flew through),
finished my coursework for the summer,
gone camping on both sides of the country,
gone to my first Single Mothers by Choice (SMC) meeting, and
found out that I am definitively not pregnant.

I saw Pam (my acupuncturist) yesterday and she mentioned [...]

or not???

Okay, so perhaps I had created a bubble of hallucination, as Sarah commented yesterday.  After my semi-confusing pregnancy test yesterday morning, I bought a set of 2 electric ones, so there would be less confusion.  I took one yesterday afternoon and it was negative – but, I thought, okay, maybe the HCG* hasn’t had time [...]

another bummer cycle

Well, I got my period early this morning, so this cycle’s a no-go.  (I recently learned that you can be pregnant and still get your period! – shocking, I thought.  In recognition of that, I will also say that I also did a pregnancy test – it was negative – and my BBT went down [...]

and the survey says …

No. My temp dropped this morning, which means I am not pregnant. I am actually pretty okay with it, as I was starting to freak out a bit about the prospect of having a real, physical baby in my house and my life in only a few short months. So now the [...]
