Anyone else expecting AF tomorrow/in a few days' time, and hoping she doesn't show up?

Gosh, AF is due tomorrow and I'm so hoping and praying hard that she doesn't arrive. I monitor my bbt very closely and AF always arrive on the same day of a bbt drop in the morning. I have been stressing every morning these few days waiting to take my thermometer reading. I even dream about taking my bbt and seeing it go down before I wake up! My husband will never understand the emotions I'm going through, so I'm hoping I can find some support with you girls out there, and we can encourage one another!
So far I'm having those typical symptoms that can be either PMS or pregnancy ones. I don't even dare to get my hopes up. Why do the wait and anticipation have to be sooooo hard?

Hey how is everyone doing? I have started seeing a chiropractor. I don't know if it will help in my ttc efforts. He did claim to have personally witnessed quite a few of his female patients getting pregnant after seeing him. I hope I will make up that statistic too. God help me!

Im sorry for your BFN, keep your head up! If you have been trying this long I would suggest talking to your doc, you never know what can be going on in your body, or your partners. They had been doing monthly blood tests and I guess they can tell by the amount of estrogen vs. progesterone in my system. As to exactly how that works, I have no idea and was a little too numb to ask to tell the truth. And yes, I consider myself a strong woman and I will not quit until they tell me there is absolutely no hope! I will know more on thursday. It is my consult with the infertility doctor at my OB and he is going to tell me what I have to do... surgery, clomid, IUI... and my wonderful husband is going in for the sperm count and bloodwork just to make sure hes got what it takes (I cant help but giggle!). I thank my lucky stars for him because he has been my world this past week and could not be more supportive. He said to me that he would be just as happy to adopt if this doesnt work because a child is a child and we will have a family one way or the other! Keep your head high, and dont give up ever; if you want it as bad as I know I do then dont let anything stand in your way! I am praying that we will all get what we want in the end, just hopefully sooner rather than later! BABY DUST!!

O yes I had not posted for a while as I thought this thread was dying. Was away for the past 2 weeks for holiday :)
How do they know that you're not ovulating at all? It is possible to tell through blood tests?
Wow you do have one hell of a fighting spirit! Yes, do not give up! I'll support you 100% percent!
Well you don't have to answer to those comments if you're not comfortable doing so. I guess a simple nod on the head and and a simple smile will do.
Keep us posted on your options too. Take care!

soooo i didnt think it was possible but i got MORE bad news today. The doc called and informed me that the results of my blood studies came back and not only am I dealing with endometriosis, but I am also not ovulating AT ALL. GOD HELP ME. I am devistated :( still planning to go through with the infertility workup on thursday and see what he has to say about what my options are at this point. I NEVER thought it would come to this and I am still praying that it will be ok in the end. Its hard that everyone in the docs office was like "im so sorry for you" "this must be very difficult to hear" and I dont know what to say to that; do i say thank you for your words? OF COURSE THIS IS HARD! I feel sorry for myself too! but i do have to say that I am NOT giving up!

mini- long time since you posted! I am so glad you did, we started a long time ago and it seems like this is the best support system that I have found. I am so hopeful for you that you will be pregnant soon and I will be so happy for you (and everyone else) keep us posted!!

CD9 today for me. I have very weird bbt readings since my last O date till now. Well, I was travelling, that might explain. I didn't have a clear temp spike after I O'ed, but AF nevertheless came very punctually. Didn't know if I did O. 3 days before AF came, I had some orange/brown looking discharge.
Now my temps have started to rise right after AF is gone, which was definitely less in volume than usual. I have readings of 36.7 degC for the past 4 days. Not usual for me.
Have been really dizzy lately. I keep convincing myself it's the travelling that messed up my temps. A part of me is tempted to POAS. But I can't handle the heartbreak of seeing a BFN. Don't really know what to do now. Guess I'll just wait another week for my temps to go back to normal before I think about reaching for that stick.
