I'm being good

I'm being good. I haven't peed on any more sticks. Though they are calling for me really loudly now. I want to thank everyone for cheering me on. I almost tested today but decided I would make myself wait until tomorrow. Plus, I am leaving for Seattle as soon as I get off work in the morning so I won't have any FMU all day. So maybe Saturday. Granted I seriously considered seeing who was in the lab tonight and if they would run a blood test for me off line. If it's a BFP it would show up in the blood test. What held me back is that if it's a BFN, I would have had to work all night with that knowledge. That said, at this moment, I'm feeling somewhat optimistic for several reasons. It's CD 27 for me and even though I ovulated a little later this month and so it's a little off, my temp went up again today. I don't usually put to much hope in my temps as I never manage to take my temp at the same time every day. However, even with that, my temp has consistently dropped on CD 26 the last 3 months for me. Also have been having not quite nausea, but feeling sort of blah. That is the only way I can explain it. I have been having some twinges/cramps in my lower abdomen today which don't feel like AF cramps and I don't ever have cramps prior to AF, just after she arrives. So while I know all of this is not conclusive, and I know I could still possibly get the BFN I'm dreading, and I know that if I do, it's not the end of the world and I can and will try again, I am feeling optimistic at this time. I have my 3 digital pregnancy tests packed up in my suitcase for Seattle. I also have my camera so if it is positive, I can take a picture of it. So with that in mind

Hi my name is Amy......and I'm a POASaholic! There I said, I have officially joined POAS anynomous. I can see though that I am not alone! I'm proud of you for showing restraint from getting the blood test. I wish you lots of luck this weekend. Have a good time in Seattle and don't POAS at the beginning of your trip, save it for the end. No sense wasting a good trip, save the emotional time for the way home. I will be checking on Monday to see if your dreams are being answered!

Hope you're having a great weekend away! It's fun to read your optimism! I REALLY hope you're pregnant!! Ready access to blood tests?!?!! I'm afraid I'd look like a pincushion by the time AF arrived or I got my BFP!

Hey Michell,
Well I'm officially out. AF came today exactly on the day she was supposed to. I'm bummed and especially given the fact that I thought I saw a line on one of the NW tests that I took yesterday morning. I came in screaming and crying waking up my DP telling her I was pregnant. It must have just been an evap line, which I wasn't even familiar with til I did a search on the NW boards. Oh well, got 10 more vials in storage so on to try #2. You sound like you're still in the running. I wish you the best of luck! Keep me posted!
