An update on me...(long)
Well, it's been a roller-coaster of a week.
Monday AF was due.
Tuesday tested and got a BFP. I didn't believe it, so I tested again and got another one!!! Called the doc and set up appointments for the 21st when I would be 7 weeks along.
Wednesday morning I tested again using a digital (the POAS addiction doesn't seem to stop) and got a "Not Pregnant" - I was told that the digitals take longer to register a BFP, so I tried to stay positive.
Thursday morning I took another digital and an Answer ER. The Answer gave me a negative but the Digital gave me a big "Pregnant". I took another Answer later in the day and got a positive on that too.
Then, Thursday night, I started to cramp a little and there was definitely blood when I wiped.
This morning I got a "NOT Pregnant" on the digital and on the Answer. I stayed home from work this morning, to see my doctor.
I was going to go in to get bloodwork, but by the time I went in to see him I was bleeding more heavily.
So the bottom line is I was pregnant for a couple days. And now I'm not.
Monday = hopeful
Tuesday = elated
Wednesday = confused
Thursday = insanely happy
Friday = devastated
The doctor said I should be sad, but encouraged that at least I know now that I CAN get pregnant. And I am comforted by that, but still really really sad.
I was so looking forward to telling my family on Thanksgiving. 
And on a last note, I want to thank Michelle (redstar) for being there for me this week. When I was freaking out, she kept me calm.

Re: An update on me...(long)
Aw Lauren .......... I was hoping the fact I had not seen you post much this week was because you had a great surprise for us  I just had a really good feeling about you getting a BFP.. I guess I was partly right
I know right now, there are really no words to comfort you or make you feel better... yes its great to know you can get PG ... but that does not make the loss any easier to deal with...
I will just remain optimistic /postivie for you next cycle and if you need to talk, know we're all here for you

Oh Lauren- I'm so sorry!
I was thinking of you yesterday because I knew that was your target testing date.
What a horrible emotional week. Well, you CAN get pregnant and you WILL get pregnant again!

Re: An update on me...(long)
Lauren, I was really praying this wasn't the case :(((
I know how heartbreaking it is !!!! Stay strong ... it's sort of ironic but, usually chemical pregnancies lead to very sticky ones !!!
Much love and prayers to you and your dh

I'm so sorry Lauren. Unfrotunately, I've also gone through what you are experiencing and understand how horrible you feel. Keep in mind that you CAN get pregnant! Hopefully next time will be a sticky one for all of us!!

Re: An update on me...(long)
Thank you everyone.
I know it's been said before but it helps so much to have such wonderful ladies to turn to on these boards.
No one outside of DH even knew we were pregnant (Thank God I resisted the urge to shout it from the rooftops on Tuesday). I'm debating whether to tell them at all.
And it's so nice to be able to come here and vent and cry without feeling like I'm being stupid or overreacting.
Part of me feels silly for being so upset over something that I only "had" for a couple days. But this time I had a due date and I took pictures of the tests and I planned how to tell people. And I know you ladies (unfortunately) know how that feels too.
I wish all of you much baby dust and thank you for your kind words. This is the only time I've smiled all day.
