LMC - I agree with everyone! Between the dotted lines due to the open circles and that it could be a dip due to implantation.

That's awful. I'm so sorry that happened to you, that must have felt horrible. You have nothing to be embarrassed about by the way, she should be embarrassed (I'm glad she apologized, but still...) H and I have only been trying for 2 months and we haven't had any losses, so it's less of a nerve but after hearing the questions since we got married... If it hadn't been my cousin's shower, I might have said something to them (one of them was her mother!) I agree, once you hit a certain age you should DEFINITELY know not to ask/say anything, though I'm not sure what age that is since I feel like it's common sense. But at a certain point, yeah, you should have enough experience to know NOT to ask. My friend's 20 year old sister keeps asking her. As annoying as that is, I will cut you a break if you are 20. Chances are, your friends haven't had kids or, if they have, they maybe haven't had a lot of issues. But by the time you are a full-grown adult starting a family of your own, you need to know better. People like this REALLY annoy me!!! Someone actually had the audacity to tell me ON MY WEDDING DAY "You'd make such a good mother. Why did you take so long to settle down? You don't have much time left." Grrrrrr..... My BIL and SIL spent 5+ years TTC #1. My niece just turned one and I was talking to my SIL the other day and she says everyone is now asking them about #2. She was so irate. She even posted a blanket statement on her FB page pointing out that not everyone can conceive easily, and that infertility struggles are real, etc.

I'll just say this woman was VERY lucky that I was on cloud 9 and was holding my cousin's newborn baby at the time (hence the reason why she felt the need to point out my lack of motherhood). That is NOT something you say to a 37 year-old bride (or ANY bride for that matter!).

Unfortunately the questions don't stop if/when you do get pregnant. I was getting asked if we would be having more kids after this half-baked bun in the oven is out. My response is, I'll evaluate after the one I'm carrying is actually out of the womb and a bit older.. So true. My MIL knows I had my tubes tied and still comments that P wants to be a big brother.

Unless they are helping via time and money to raise said child people need to mind their own business when it comes to how many kids a person has.

LMC - I am sorry. I would get a 2nd or 3rd opinion before you get your tube removed before you do that. I know after I got mine removed the doctors all said that it does not decrease the chances of getting pregnant since your ovary will use the other tube.

When I got mine removed, they said it was actually better because whatever was wrong with it that caused the ectopic in the first place was likely to just cause another one. I admit to being absolutely blown away when I found out they compensate for each other. Yeah, that's crazy. I always thought that you'd ovulate on opposite sides each month, so if you didn't have one, you'd just ovulate every other month. I like learning. It is interesting how it works. I am not sure how it works and was surprised when they told me that after my surgery.

I am loving that chart LMC! HEY DOCTOR! Do you know anything about implantation cramps? Are they real? I'm thinking if I convince myself I'm pregnant, IT MIGHT BE REAL. Um not to enable crazy but i am pretty sure I had implantation cramping with at least one of my pregnancies... Sorry? Or you're welcome? I'm not sure which :-) KEEP THOSE TEMPS HIGH, FRIEND!

What did they feel like? Mine were at ... 6DPO? Right? Yeah. And they were REALLY BAD. Lasted like an hour. If I am remembering correctly, it was a sharper, more localized cramp than a period cramp. Didn't last long. Please remember that I was an absolute lunatic in early pregnancy, so if yours felt different from that please don't be discouraged. I might not be remembering details exactly right.

Not crazy at all, as long as you think you could handle a BFN. It's possible to get a BFP that early, but it's very, very possible not to, even if you are pregnant. Yeah testing at 8-9 DPO really messes with my head. Honestly, I'd wait past 10DPO this time but I want to have a drink while handing out candy and figured I'd found out first so I don't feel bad. I think waiting to test it better. Its hard not to but you have a better chance at getting a bfp. I know mine was not until 12 or 13dpo.

When are you going to test, LMC? I did this mornings even though I said I wouldn't. BFN 9DPO? Too early :-) (I say this knowing I'd do the same thing. I just hope you aren't discouraged by a BFN is what I mean)

I had a BFN on 10dpo followed by a BFP on 13dpo. Just throwing that out there

LMC - even though I want to see the results every day I think it might be a good idea to wait until CD12 to test again.

I think I've asked this before but wtf do sore/painful preg boobs feel like? My boobs are ACHING all of a sudden and I'm really uncomfortable, but they're not sore to the touch I haven't had the pain since my first tri. Which is fine with me my boobs can stay at DDD the rest of the pregnancy. But they were aching and I hated them being touched. I didn't get this feeling until about 8 or so weeks into the pregnancy.

They were sore early on, but now just.....big.....and full? I can't really be bra-less. I got this goin' on too. I haven't been sore much at all, and no major change in size (bras still fit the same) but they're definitely firmer, and the weight is bothersome without support, even while sleeping.
