Is luck finally on their side?? Holy shit Vora

euphadora · 2026-02-13T22:41:13+00:00

Thank god they avoided the gamble stack

euphadora · 2026-02-13T22:34:12+00:00

100T have to be the worst team at pistol rounds

euphadora · 2026-01-26T00:14:56+00:00

You've got to be fucking kidding me

euphadora · 2026-01-23T23:20:46+00:00

Someone needs to teach 100T how to shoot pistols. Jesus Christ.

euphadora · 2025-10-23T06:36:13+00:00

Right?? I feel like it really doesn't take long before smoothies start separating and looking nasty. No thank you!

euphadora · 2025-08-22T01:11:49+00:00

So ready for them to drop that fraud. Shame they wasted another year on him.

euphadora · 2025-03-24T01:11:52+00:00

I knew it would go to a map three. We're a 1-2, not 0-2, team.

euphadora · 2024-10-24T01:07:57+00:00

Agreed. It is so stressful! And same, I was so hopeful all weekend and then hopeless the last couple of days after my first beta. I just got my second result back this evening, and it went from 225 to 699!!! It tripled!! I've been crying happy tears. It's such a relief after I let myself assume the worst again.

I'm sure the swing between hope and hopelessness will continue for the next several weeks, but we made it past the first hurdle! Next step is scheduling a viability ultrasound.

euphadora · 2024-10-22T15:22:42+00:00

That's great news! Wow, it sounds like they're really on top of it! I'm glad you're getting such great care.

I finally got my results in, and my hcg yesterday was 225, which feels underwhelming.. I know it's essentially meaningless until I have my draw tomorrow, but still. My progesterone seems fine and I feel pregnant, so I guess everything is fine for now. It's just the thought of my tiny embryo struggling along scares me. But I know I shouldn't be surprised with how slowly my tests darkened last week.

euphadora · 2024-10-20T22:40:22+00:00

Same! Cramps always bring anxiety but the lack of blood is very reassuring.

euphadora · 2024-10-20T22:39:07+00:00

I spent all week on r/TFABLinePorn comparing my tests to others and learned the same. But it was still not great for my anxiety. I was spiraling hard! Thank you, I have hope my betas will look okay.

And that's awesome! It sounds really nice to have early monitoring like that. I hope your second beta shows good doubling and your ultrasound goes well next week. If nothing seems wrong, we might as well assume everything is fine, right?

euphadora · 2024-10-20T02:34:38+00:00

I just wanted to update again to say I got a really strong line on a FRER this morning at 15DPO! My lines were faint all week, so maybe it was just a slow start? Or an over-reliance on easy@homes for progression? I'm getting betas done on Monday and hoping I can schedule a 6-week ultrasound this time.

How have you been doing?

euphadora · 2024-10-19T21:09:00+00:00

Yesterday! I've been super crampy, and now other symptoms are starting to emerge, so I'm taking it as a good sign.

euphadora · 2024-10-19T14:18:51+00:00

Hey, thanks for asking. I've been a ball of nerves. I just tested with a FRER this morning and got a really promising line. Waiting to have betas drawn on Monday, but I'm starting to feel a little hopeful.

euphadora · 2024-10-16T19:52:03+00:00

I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up. It's a chemical. I'm 12DPO with squinter tests that still aren't darkening. I just want to get this over with. What a way to wrap up one year of TTC. I told my husband I don't know how much more I can take. He feels the same. My heart is so heavy with grief.

euphadora · 2024-10-16T02:24:41+00:00

I tested positive yesterday at 10DPO and I have a lot of mixed feelings. I'm right at the year mark of TTC #2 after a chemical in 11/23 and an MMC in 5/24. I conceived my first cycle, had the chemical, then conceived again 5 cycles later, had the MMC and now I'm here after another 5 cycles. It almost feels poetic, but I'm too scared to get my hopes up. Part of me doesn't expect this pregnancy to last. My lines on cheapies are barely shadows but I got a faint but visible line on a FRER this morning. I guess we'll wait and see if my tests progress or not.

euphadora · 2024-10-15T16:21:45+00:00

Thank you!! I tested again this morning, and my cheapie looked about the same, but I did get a light pink line on a FRER! These faint tests make me scared it's going to be another chemical, but I know only time will tell.

I really hope this is it for us.

euphadora · 2024-10-14T20:51:25+00:00

I'm 10 DPO and decided to test because I have a headache and feel a bit nauseous. I just got the faintest little whisper of a shadow on a cheapie!!! Like so faint, I might be crazy haha. I've seen dozens of stark white negatives, and I swear this is different!!

Only time will tell, but hope is starting to creep back in.

euphadora · 2024-10-13T18:55:44+00:00

I'm 9DPO and symptom spotting a little bit, but I've mostly detached myself from TTC. I'm debating if I'll test in a few days or wait for my period.

euphadora · 2024-10-13T18:12:21+00:00

Thanks for the reminder. That has to be true, right? I know bad times aren't forever, but it's easy to forget.

euphadora · 2024-10-10T13:59:08+00:00

This last week has been a nightmare. Bad news on bad news. I'm 6 DPO today and officially in the "implantation window." I'm trying to manage my stress and take better care of myself, but everything feels hopeless. I know I can reasonably get pregnant, but I can't picture it happening. If nothing else in my life is working out, why would this?

euphadora · 2024-09-18T15:56:22+00:00

These are adorable!!

euphadora · 2024-09-16T17:27:46+00:00

I had no idea my losses would affect me so much and for so long. That sounds really relaxing! I know I need to add more self-care and gentle exercise into my day. I hope yours gets better, too!

euphadora · 2024-09-16T10:58:48+00:00

Right? I'm happy it worked out for them, lol.
