Inroducing myself..
Well, I've been doing some posting and wanted to re-introduce myself.. I actually used to post frequently on the boards under my old screen name SSBride05, not sure if anyone remembers me, but I am back!!! We have been TTC since April of 08... I got pregnant in August but miscarried around 4-5 weeks. I didn't have a DandC (I was very early)...but, we have been TTC since Nov. which was the time frame we were told.. I developed some cysts during the MC, and was bleeding for quite some time.
This month was the first time I got a smiley face on my OPK-but, it was the day before Thanksgiving, so I think I missed it. UGH. Trying to stay positive!!! ANyone have any experience w/the OPK's is it 24 hours? we bd'd the day I got it and the day before.. (which I screwed up-day before was day1 10)
I can't seem to get preggo again.. still trying and getting very discouraged. Much luck to everyone, lots of babydust to you all!!!
Looking forward to getting to know everyone!

Re: Inroducing myself..
Welcome!
Did you BD at all after you got the +OPK? (besides that same day)? You should be okay.. but for the future, you'd want to BD the day of the +OPK and the next three days just to be safe.
Best of luck!

Thank you for the welcome! I have been lurking on these boards for a while and i have learned so much..
Yes, we BD that night, (which was Weds). But the thing is, I tested on CD10 which was the Tues. but I messed up, so I am not sure if I would've had a smiley on that day too-hope it makes sense-sorry! But, we did Tues, Weds (smiely face), but not Thurs. b/c of Turkey Day. Then we did on Friday night, and Sat. Crossing my fingers, but I think I did on Thurs. UGH.
Thanks for the advice
Best of luck to you as well

Sounds like you'll be okay!
Did you use an OPK on Thankgiving?

Thanks for the advice-no, I didn't. I just did on Weds... are you supposed to continue w/the testing after the smiley?? Today is CD 18 and I started to feel some soreness in my boobs, and some cramping yesterday and today... took a preggo test today and negative-I think I am too early, right?

WAY too early! You're probably only 6ish DPO.
I usually continued to test after the first smiley.
Wait, were you testing in the mornings or afternoons?

No problem and Good luck! I'd say wait next Friday 12/12 before testing with another pregnancy test.
I know it's hard, but we'll keep you busy!
