Yes deffo I get you I feel alone quite a lot of the time! But I know many people on here share the same kind of thing and can understand and relate to each other! xox

Hope the tests go well!
I know its funny how Drs wont touch you for so long when you really feel like you have reasons and symptoms and results to need help! Im the same he wont seem to do anything until its been so long! Its stressing me out! I go back next week though to get hubbys SA results hopefully!
I just dont know when my AF is going to show up? Its so hard having irregular cycles! Hows it going? Are you going to try anything else?
BABY DUST AND GOOD LUCK!

Hi Faith and Hope, I'm taking 2 400mg capsules twice a day (that's what it says on the bottle..lol) so thats 1600mg total. It's been exactly one week and i went from something that looked like ewcm to creamy cm to dry cm which is somewhat worrying. also had little cramping from both ovaries (i assume) and just lower belly in general. i feel like my bbs are not a part of my body anymore cuz i havent felt any ache or sensitivity since 3 days before AF was due.
It's so hard for me cuz i don't know if anything is working, if i'm preggers if i'm ovulating, when or if AF is going to show, if the meds i'm taking are helping or just messing my cycles up even more.

I'm on CD51 supposedly 35DPO i'm not even sure if my body actually ov even with +ve opks...

any updates?

I started my Af yday night after CD51! That hasnt been my longest since TTC either and every cycle has differed! My shortest was 18!
I just hope and pray that I have a chance and that it will happen!
It always turns up when I least expect it!
But I never know when to test either?

I'm so happy for you

. would have preferred a BFP but I Guess AF is the consolation prize ...sigh...Now it's like i just want to get something that makes sense...something.... i pray this new cycle is the BFP one for you...so would you say that the Vitex helped? i need some encouragement...i was thinking of ordering some preseed but wouldn't even know when to use it if i can't pin down my fertile days. Did you get any symptoms before

showed up?
would keep my fxed crossed for you but i know prayers are even more powerful so will remember you in mine...

Thank you Fertilicious!
Well im not too sure if its helping for deffo or how? Ive upped them the past few days, I was taking one 1000mg now im taking two which is 2000mg?
Just to see if taking more helps this cycle?
My AF seemed different?
It was lighter and shorter?
At first tho I wasnt sure if it was as it was light and pink ish but then at thee nd I was spotting brown ish?
Sorry for TMI!
I know I darent try anything like pre seed etc as I dont know my fertile days if I even have any at all?
Im the same tho I dont know what to do for the best? If its helping or making it worse?
Ahh well see how it goes this cycle and when AF shows?
BABY DUST AND GOOD LUCK!

I just use preseed every time since I have no idea when i'm ovulating!

Faith n Hope · Apr 20th, 2012, 03:50 AM

Is pre seed the one with the applicator?

gflady · Apr 20th, 2012, 03:53 AM

Yup, it's the one with the applicator but you don't have to use the applicator

Faith n Hope · Apr 20th, 2012, 03:57 AM

Ahh right thanks coz ive never used it because I thought if I dont know when im ovulating it will get really expensive and might be no use whatsoever?!

hiya, AF never showed up, instead i ovulated today i think. I got +ves on OPKs on saturday and sunday. my body has got to be the weirdest ever. FF changed my my ovulation day from CD17 to CD55. so now i've gone from being about 38DPO to 1DPO. does this mean i'm potentially in the 2ww period? sigh...women..why do we have to be so complicated?

supposed to go jogging but feeling very tired (lazy)....
my preseed hasnt even been delivered yet...

gflady, faith n hope where are you on your cycles?

Faith n Hope · Apr 23rd, 2012, 14:43 PM
