I went to the bathroom a little bit ago and had pink when I wiped. Now if I were a hopeful and positive person I would say it was implantation, but with my track record, I know better. 10 dpo. I guess the B6 didn't do it's thing by keeping the spotting away like last month. I wish we could afford to go to the fertility specialist, but that is out of the question for awhile. We are putting everything we have into paying off the truck so we will have an "extra" $450 to our budget every month.
Oh, and next month and every month until we see the fertility specialist is au natural other than vitamins and supplements. I am considering not temping this next cycle, but we will see. I guess DH and I really need to talk about the future plans. 2 years is popping up very soon!

 I'm sorry Christina, I know how badly you were hoping this was it. I'm sure I'll be right there with you with AF soon... blegh.
Hope you and Tony come up with the next part of the plan of TTC. I'm sure with the 2 year mark coming up this is tough. Lots of hugs and if you ever need to talk, you've got my email and number and all that.

 I am sorry about AF. I get angry sometimes thinking about how much money we have dumped into IF... it shouldn't cost this much to try and have a baby. I understand the not being able to afford an RE right now. We are seeing one, but we can't move forward with IVF, which is our last shot at TTC a biological baby, it's just too expensive for a chance at success.
I'm sorry you are nearing that 2 year mark... that one hurt for me too.
More HUGS to you!

I'm sorry Christina. I'm putting the extra money that I'm making over Xmas aside to help pay for any treatments that we will need. Having a baby is expensive, TTC shouldn't be!

Thanks girls - I don't know how I would handle this if I didn't have this support group. I had brown CM when I wiped earlier. Maybe it isn't over. But I am going to assume it is and if AF doesn't show by next weekend I will test.
I did some research last night and I think we have a "plan". It is going to involved upping my B6 and Vitamin D. I am also going to take EPO and Mucinex this next cycle. I am going to find my Fertilitea and faithfully drink that again (for the Vitex in it).
So far that is it. Maybe I will get a BFP before Christmas, or at least before I hit the 2 year mark! I hope so!

 I'm sorry you had some spotting! I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that it isn't the witch coming, but if it is, at least you sound like you have a good plan for this upcoming cycle.
And I also hear you on the 2 year mark. Tomorrow marks 2 years since we started ttc.

please be careful of how much b6 you take, it can be dangerous if taken in higher doses than needed. my dr. told me that, and i know some women who have had some really bad stuff happen to them cause they were taking too much. I can't remember how much my dr. said was safe to take cause i stopped taking it, but it's something to check out!!! I'm still praying for your bfp!!! NOW!!!

Bright red blood and clots this morning. Out for sure. Not really bleeding though yet so AF isn't TRULY here yet. She plays this game with me for a few days. I will bleed for 5 mins and then nothing for at least 24 hrs or more and then a little blood again and the whole cycle starts over. I hate this!
As for the B6 - I read 150-200mg is the limit. I think I am going to up it to 100mg as I have been taking 50mg for 2 cycles now.
