Crawling out from underneath my rock so I can fess up too. This morning. I tested.
Of course it's negative, it's too damn early to test.
I really have my doubts in general but my God my brain won't let it go.
We need a support group LOL.
I think part of my problem is my self-imposed timeline. If it doesn't happen by the end of the year, we're going to stop (I'm headed for 41). The pressure is on which is totally unhealthy but omg I can't help it.

Liz,
Are you using OPK's or a Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor?
FWIW, I tested 'early' at 12 dpo and got a faint bfp on a target brand and tested with a digi and got a clear 'pregnant'. I would wait until you are in double digits at LEAST. What type of tests are you using? $tree or internet cheapies/store brands, you'll have to wait longer as they are not as sensitive...
Keeping everything crossed for you for a BFP this month! Your chart looks awesome!

Thanks - I am using OPK's but have never actually gotten a good line on them (including the month I got pregnant) I temp, chart CM, Cervical position so I am pretty sure when I ovulated.
I tested with the FRER gold test this morning. I know I should wait - I am just too darn impatient! I have some walmart brand ones too (blue dye so I am reluctant to use them) so I sprung for the good one.
Thanks for checking out the chart too - we haven't given up hope - that BFN just hurts! lol

Step away from the tests woman!!! I am so not worried for you!! Its gonna happen!! I am so sure of it!!! My best friends mother told me once that I need to calm down or my baby would come out with a tablet and pen and would be writing notes before he/she was a day old!! Im the type of girl whos notes have notes!!! So i totally understand how you feel!!
I think we should plan a day to hang out soon!! Plus my pampered chef is coming to your house!!! Lets go to a spa for pedicures!!! My tootsies could use some pampering!!! Maybe we could meet somewhere like Allentown!! Invite Pam too!!! I could get Courtney to come along too!! then do lunch!! You do so much for so many people you really need a day to you!!! I think we need to do it soon or you may just explode!!!!! Love YA!!!

Liz- hoping you get you BFP this month!
When I do the OPK, I was using the ones with the lines and never really got a true positive, or at least one that was "truly" positive. So this month I broke down and bought the digital OPK (Clear Blue Easy) and FINALLY got a positive ( <--- kinda what the positive looks like LOL) and the next day I felt some slight cramping so I know I O'd.
