30-somethings TTC #1 Testing and Support Thread!

[bonjo808]

I hope the witch forgets where we all live.

I just got off the phone w/ my dr. and I'm going to do the 21 day test next month. Not the ideal situation but hopefully this way we'll get the ball rolling on figuring out if there's an issue or not!?!

LuckyD- Lucky cycle #7 for LuckyD. I think it goes well.

Waiting- FX you get your smiley soon.

Jaimie- woo hoo for another smiley. Go catch that egg!

Maxx- Af needs to get there and get gone for you. I hate the spotting thing.

Hippie- tons of for you this cycle!


I'm still waiting for AF to show. Going to be cleaning the house and getting things ready for my parents to come into town tomorrow night. I also need to find some activities for us to do.

I'm feeling hopeful for you at the moment!!

Hey bonjo. What's the 21 day test?

 

[Waitng4Baby#1]

Yeah what is the 21 day test??

Park hope she hasn'tarrived yet?

Jaimie glad you are making the most of it! I kept on testing with opk last month after I got the first smiley face and it is so nice when you get another one! Given it picks up the hormone before the egg is released today is probably the day for you to ovulate?

Still no smiley face for me but hopefully it will be there in the morning. Nice to have a night of to rest

I with you on hoping the witch forgets where we all are.

I'm also curious as to what the 21 day test is. Please share.

I'm still waiting to see what happens. AF is still MIA

 

[Waitng4Baby#1]

Hurrah! Maybe she has FINALLY been scared away of us 30+ ttc girls! She has obviously heard about our summer explosion (including NZ winter explosion).

 

[SquirrelGirl]

My only knowledge is from what I've read on BnB, so Bonjo correct me if I'm wrong... The Day 21 test measures your hormone levels 7 days after you ovulate. So it really shouldn't be on Day 21 unless you O on day 14. Basically it tells you if you really did ovulate that month.

Good luck with the test, Bonjo, I hope it tells you something that will help you get that BFP!

I'm starting to feel a bit impatient today! AF is gone, but I won't O for what will feel like forever! Gotta remember to TTHF! So bring on the fun!

You are correct Squirrel...its a blood test that specifically tests your progesterone level to make sure ovulation has occurred...if that turns up ok then the doc said we can continue with other tests..so its a starting point at least.

could you put me down for July 1st please? =]

 

[LuckyD]

Didnt want to read without posting anything, in a rush as home late from work and DH sat on the sofa looking at me as he knows tonight is night so got to go!

But - sorry to those AF has arrived for/ almost here...

Jaimie hope you are having fun.

Still no smiley face on the opk despite doing both this morning and evening so hopefully tomorrow is the day.

Speak soon x

Hope that you see that smiley face really soon Waiting xx

Thanks Waiting4! We had fun last night and I've got some plans in store for DH tonight : ) Hope you get your smiley tomorrow! I did one again today and got another smiley, which I found reassuring because yesterday was the first day I started with the digi opks and was a little surprised to find it smiling at me. Wanted to make sure I hadn't missed out on the early ovuliciousness so felt better when it smiled at me again today.

Ha ha, lucky DH! Yay for the smileys...it made me laugh to think of it smiling 'at' you xx

Yep, the 21 day tests measure progesterone...but Drs seem to do them automatically on day 21, so it's kind of silly. My Dr did them for me as soon as she knew I was TTC, but I have since learn I don't ovulate until CD18-20. She said my progesterone was good - but if I had just ovulated the day before I think that would have made a big difference!

Hi DevsGirl, welcome! I will add your date now Good luck!

Welcome, DevsGirl!!!

 

[parkgirl]

maxx and bonjo- sorry the witch got you.

Big HI to everyone else. I only have a quick moment since my parents are still at our house. AF still hasn't shown. I'm now thinking I will go ahead and test either tomorrow or Sunday. I don't want to test with my parents here since they don't know that we are trying. I hope all you lovely ladies have a great weekend.
