*Rach87’s test thread*

I agree if you’re off on your dpo you still have lots of time. That temp drop is something though. If I get a temp drop like that I wake up bleeding, it’s AF right away. No AF yet today? Maybe that temp drop was from mouth breathing or taking it way earlier?

the timing was good that I took at, but I am cramping a decent amount today. I was trying to google implantation dip but I think its just af around the corner. Time will give me my answer I guess

Aww thanks. Just saw your comment on Amys thread. Hate that our bodies have taken away our dreams. I really hope you get your bfp soon too! If you don't mind me asking what do you have? (Don't feel compelled to answer if you're not comfortable) @Lucy3

@Sander not sure - the deadline was mine. He hasnt given me a clear answer whether he wants to keep going or not. If af comes we have 1 more cycle unless he says otherwise.

cramping stopped, now I keep getting a poking feeling just left of center about 3” below belly button. Gah why do I keep trying to figure it out - my body is so weird nothing ever goes normal. Lol

Rach I have what they called ‘mixed connective tissue disease’ which from what I know is almost the same as lupus. My inflammation is mainly my skin (I get eye rashes) and sore tissue which feels like it’s my skin but just under it. Also get some sore joints. I’m on 10 pred and plaqunil atm but have been on methotrexate before. I find I flare every month just before af comes which is makes that time of the month even more depressing! Do you find that? The best part of pregnancy is that I feel amazing, almost no autoimmune issues and I don’t need meds!! The best! Then it all comes crashing back around 4 weeks pp

Thats what they diagnosed me with - and my Rheum said when they dont know quite which disease it is thats what they call it lol. Took 6 years to be officially diagnosed with Lupus but they started me on plaquenil right away when I was 19. I was taking Benlysta which worked wonders but stopped when we decided to ttc #3. Been off for 4 months and still feeling good thankfully. And yes when I was pregnant with my daughter I felt like superwoman. I was on all 4s gardening the day before I gave birth. Now my son was another story. Lol i sat on the couch for 9 months. I was so nauseous and exhausted the whole time. Sorry youre dealing with a similar situation, but its nice to know Im not alone Really hope we get our babies soon!!

Af got me today. I really want thank all you wonderful ladies for your support this month, it was so nice having so many root for me.

I’ll be starting a new thread for this cycle probably in a week. Hopefully you all can join me again!
