BYOB: Bring on the BFPs!!
Hi all!
I have been on this site for what feels like forever (2yrs+) The BYOB threads have always been a great place for ladies to come for ttc support, answers, suggestions & even venting our frustrations! We used to have a hard time keeping up with all the chatter & made some great friens on here! I would love for it to be that again!
Former BYOB ladies & all newcomers welcome to join us! Cant wait to chat with you all!!

Hi ladies!
So I typed a big long reply yesterday and my phone deleted it (still getting used to this damn smart phone) and I was too lazy and frustrated to type it all out again.
Allioak - So sorry to heat about your presumed chemical :( I wish you luck thiscycle, sending lots of sticky vibes!
Elle - wow awesome progesterone levels!! 10dpo is still early to test, my fingers are crossed for you!! Hope af stays away!!
AFM - CD 21 today... I am assuming I o'd as I have been super frisky lately!! Lol! Assuming I am in the two week wait... symptoms today (as if any of them would be pregnancy induced! Lol!) Are sore belly & pelvis, nausea & an uncharacteristic aversion to a maginum ice cream bar lol! I am reading WAY too much into this!!

Hey Girls
I haven't posted for a little while as I have been feeling very depressed and stressed out. Yesterday I left work to go home and cry all day I was too emotionally unstable which is VERY unusual for me. I have been having serious bloating (like clothes don't fit) and went to see my doc and they wanted to wait to see if AF shows. She thinks I'm PG but wouldn't do any testing until AF is late or POS HPT. Well yesterday/today AF is due. Last month I had a 12 day LP. She didn't come yesterday @ 12dpo and I just had a little bit of spotting which is really weird for me. Today is 13dpo and still just a little spotting and normally AF comes on FULL force no spotting at all and my temp usually drops the day of, this morning temp is still above cover line. Can anyone look at my chart and see if they have any ideas? I don't know what to think. I am just barely spotting again today. Yesterday it was light pink on the TP and today it was like a brownish color on the TP and no more since. I had a serious talk with DH and we decided that IF AF shows then next cycle I will only temp and take a little break from the OPKs. Trying to de-stress. I haven't tested again and might tomorrow if AF doesn't show. Please help any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks you girls!

Hi ladies!
Lacey - Sorry to hear you have been so stressed out & emotional lately. I had a look at your latest hpt image, hard to say but I think I see a shadow of a line. Good luck! As for your bbt chart its not on your page, you have to make it public for us to view. :)
Elle - Boo!! :( Stupid af ninja! So sorry sweetie!
AFM - CD 22 I believe... Not sure when/if I o'd, but if I did it should have been between CD 14-18... Making me 4-8 dpo. I am hoping its 8 cause I am having crazy symptoms! Lol! Still really nauseous today & I will be starving then eat 2 bites and be full! Lol If I am still feeling this way by Monday I will test. :)

Joy: Any feelings on this cycle? How's everything going?
Lacey: this is my first month charting so I'm not really sure. How are things feeling/looking? I hear you on the emotions.
Elle: sorry about AF. BOO.
AFM: Been trying to stay away from thinking about TTC too much. The chemical was emotional for me, and 8 days of bleeding was constant reminder. CD10 now. Hopefully will be Oing next week! We also just accepted an offer on our house and will have to move end of August! And Gabriella is just such a fun handful lately! She had 104 fever too over the weekend, poor baby!

Hi ladies!
Sorry its been so long!!
Suzy - glad you decided to join! :) Still can't believe your lo is already almost a year!!
Elle - fingers are crossed for you hun!
Alli - not sure about this cycle... I have mixed feelings. The nausea is the only thing making me think I might be, but I doubt it. Lol
AFM - CD 30 today, af could be here any time now. Not entirely sure when to expect here since my last two cycles were so strange. Tempted to test but only have a frer and don't wanna waste it.
