Hi Ann d and Nicaliw,

I really feel for you in the 2ww, I actually found that harder then getting my BFN. At least then you know and can move on whether it is BFN or BFP...

My friends are asking if I am putting a brave face on, obviously I am very disappointed but I am so releived the last 6 weeks are over so I can have some normality for me and my DH.

It is enough to drive you insane but you are getting there so hang on in there...

I'm getting so proper AF cramps today and the hormones are kicking in, I hope it is no worse than normal as I suffer from heavy painful periods anyway - nice...

Thinking of you lots, take care...

Thank you Nicaliw for your encouraging words. Your post actually made me feel better. I'm going to try to stay positive. As for the hpts, I wouldn't worry about getting negatives right now. I think it's way too early to tell. That's why I haven't tried them. Maybe I will do one the day before I go in for my preg. test. I don't know yet.

Magic - glad you're hangin' in there. No pun intended with the hangin part. If I get a BFN on wed, I can guarantee I'll be hungover on Thursday!!!

Ann D- I know what you mean about not being able to sleep. Every night all week I've been up from about 1-5am. I don't know what wakes me, but once I'm up, it's impossible for me to go back to sleep because I obsess all night long about the BFP. Probably not a good thing, but I can't help it. PS - I read that as long as we are on progesterone, AF won't come. Don't know what truth there is to that, but if it's true, then maybe the cramps and other symptoms aren't her on her way. I don't know, I've given up trying to figure out what, if anything, we should be feeling.

Nicaliw - I went to Target yesterday...it took everything in my power not to buy the HPT. I don't think I'll make it to Wednesday though. I'm sure I'll end up doing one before then.

Well ladies, the countdown is on! We'll know soon! To those testing tomorrow, good luck!

Hugs...

Beta is tomorrow and I am driving myself nuts. I am sticking around the house today mainly because I don't trust myself not to buy a HTPT. Also, I am spotting and have cramps which are only adding to my anxiety....
Well, 24 hours and counting until the beta results AHHHHHH

Dreambaby and Gekasbasy... good luck to you both!! I'm saying a prayer tonight for both of you!! That wait is almost over! :D

I haven't felt any cramps since earlier this morning. I'm hoping that's a good sign, but it will be 3 days until I know for sure. I haven't bought an HPT and have avoided the drugstores so that I won't be tempted, but I think about it ALL THE TIME! Luckily my parents and sister are visiting me from out of town and staying very positive for me. There are moments of doubt, but I'm trying to maintain a positive outlook overall. Hopefully, tonight I'll get a better night's sleep!

That is great, dreambaby!!! Now you can relax and enjoy your pregnancy.

Did you have any symptoms while in 2ww? Did you take an hpt before the beta?

I will be testing 11/23 which will be 11dp3dt. Wondering if I should take an hpt before that.

I'm getting nervous about my test date in 2 days.... yikes!! I have felt no symptoms except for some cramping early Sunday but nothing since. The wait is too much to handle sometimes!!
