Hello Robin,


Thank you! I will see what FF puts me at with my temps. I would assume that I am in the 2ww but I am not sure how that works. I hope it works! I will definately keep you posted!

Hello,


I am soo excited for you!!!! I hate blood tests UGH. I do not mind needles but they can never find my vein and my right arm is useless for taking blood. They always have to dig around.


Wow, those test ARE sensitive!!!


Keep me posted about your Betas!


I am living through you.. LOL ;)

yay!!! I hope them little spermies do their job. next time you have blood taken be sure to drink plenty of water to hydrate your veins and make sure they tie the tourniquet tight enough. with me the have to tie it really tight. or just tell them not to bother with your arm and use a butterfly needle on your hand. I took an elective in phlebotomy to go with my double major. ******BABY DUST******* ~~~~~~~~GO SPERMIES, GO!!~~~~~~~~~~

Hello,


That makes sense about drinking water. When I have lab work done, its usually in the AM after I had 1-1.5 hour run. I was not drinking enough water...mostly diet pepsi and lots of it! I have stopped the pepsi and have been drinking alot of water and seltzer for the past week.


Thank you for the advice!
