Over?
I think it's all over. Cramps; bleeding. I want to die but have to keep up a pretense amongst all these relatives that all is well.
Life after baby and other true life adventures. Well, adventures might be overstating it.

I was wrong. Fooled again. I must be one of those women who doesn't have a detectable level of hcg in early pregnancy. The Manling's first test also gave a BFN; this time, however, I was convinced that I was not pregnant. But it appears that I am. Happy, happy, joy, joy. Mark claims that he had been surprised the first test was negative, because he was convinced I was pregnant, in part because I've gotten nastily sick again (head cold vs last time was a wicked awful stomach virus.) I was a bit suspicious myself because 2 days after we did the deed, I had weird crampy feelings for 2 full days, which must have been implantation. I don't remember feeling those the last time, but I also wasn't as in tune with my body as I am now. Those 2 days I also had a significant dip in my bbt, and I wondered then what was going on.
CD28 was yesterday and I decided to take a test, which would make me around 10+ days past ovulation. It was negative. I didn't use my First morning urine though, so there is a slight glimmer of hope, combined with me remembering that the first test I took with the Manling was also negative. Back then I wasn't charting, looking at cervical mucus or anything back then so it was a crap shoot. I just thought it was time. Luckily, we had hit the jackpot. This time I doubt it. I think I will just wait until the bleeding begins. What really annoys me, besides not being pregnant, is that although I can go whoop it up in NYC on our vacation, my prime fertile days will most likely also occur during the vacation.
I haven't been spending as much time on-line anymore. The warming spring weather and the antics of the Manling have kept me busy, and mentally and emotionally I've been feeling better.
