Army... Those pictures are great!

 

[Sunny skies]

Army, you got some great pics.

AFM, still no AF, BFN this morning, I'm starting to obsess. Maybe I O late or my body is just playing games with me. Could I be pregnant and the Hcg is just not showing up on an HPT. What would you ladies do? I'm not in pain, but all the bad memories of my etopic are coming back and it was this time last year I was pregnant and didn't know. Sorry about the rant.

Sunny Skies - How many DPO are you? I know one of my sisters didn't get a positive HPT until she was almost 3 months pregnant with my niece. A blood test + was all she could get up until then.

On the other hand, I normal O between CD 18 and 25 depending on how screwed up my cycle is that month.

You're not out yet!

 

[spacegirl]

well ladies I'm out this month already! Big temp drop today (9dpo) my LP is 11 days and it sometimes drops early before AF comes. Booooo really thought I might be ok this month with doing SMEP and taking EPO.

Gutted!

I'm on Cd 34, usually have 28/29 day cycle. I have never gone past 31 days. I guess I could have O'd later as I had an almost positive OPK on Cd 14 and I didn't test when i was in Vegas. Thanks for giving me hope. Maybe I'll push for a blood test. If I get pregnant I need to be closely monitored so I'm super sensitive as I don't want another etopic, or worse loose my remaining tube.

Spacegirl, don't loose hope yet, your still early.

 

[spacegirl]

Hi Sunny,

I hope you are right but with only 2-3 days left before period due this temp drop is quite typical for me

I've heard of many people not getting a positive 'til 18dpo! so hopefully you'll get your BFP soon xxx

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

So quiet here lately! Wishing everyone an early happy thanksgiving.

Miraculously, I got my +OPK yesterday at CD 18. I have never ever gotten one before CD 20 before so this is a bit exciting. I think the Fertilaid is working! I am getting some cramps now so it's pretty safe to say I am O-ing as we speak. I hope it turns into something good.

While at my lowest after finding out my BFF is pregnant over the weekend, the first patient I saw on Monday morning is 7 months pregnant! The next patient didn't want any X-rays because she's late on her period and thinks she's pregnant as well. Oh yeah, a gold digging acquaintance of my family's is also pregnant. She recently found a rich married guy and I guess she's trapping him with a baby. I guess everyone and their mothers are pregnant but me.

 

[snowflakes120]

Yeah for + OPK on CD18 May!! Great news about Fertilaid!@! Get your man in bed again! Your BD schedule looks spot on! Lots of girls on here have gotten BFP on early OV!! Your next!!

Happy Thanksgiving girls!! Gobble Gobble!!

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Thanks, Lisa! Dh's low sperm count worries me. Nevertheless, I'll try to jump him again tonight! Happy thanksgiving to you too!!!

 

[Kdk24]

May... Yay +OPK!!! Thats's such a relief I'm sure!

Afm... Cd14 still no + OPK yet. Which I'm okay with. Hoping tomorrow brings me a smiley face on the digi! DTD last night, planning on it again tonight, and maybe if OH doesn't drink too much on Thanksgiving night? We shall see?

 

[jrowenj]

Happy thanksgiving, ladies. I am gonna be super busy the next few days... so, just wanted to wish you a happy thanksgiving and lots of xoxoxox

Spacegirl, don't loose hope yet, your still early.

Sunny I would definately go and get checked out...one thing I learnt from this ttc journey is 'no regrets'. If anything it will eliminate the worry and you will get an answer.

Hi everyone else - just popping in to say Hi, not managed to read very far back yet. Hope your all ok. x

Hey Gemma, thanks for popping in, what's your plan this cycle?

HPT was negative again this am and still no AF. I spoke to my doctor and went in for blood work this evening. Should have results in a day or 2. Luckily doctor agrees to better be safe than sorry especially with my risk of another etopic. I'm on pins and needles and even though I have none of the symptoms or pain I had last time, I'm freaking out. It doesn't help that my anniversary of my loss is approaching. This time last year I was pregnant and didn't know. I knew something was wrong and I've definately learnt to trust my instincts. DH has been very worried too and he keeps asking how I'm feeling. Luckily we've been talking and he seems more open to taking this TTC more seriously and not just saying "if it happens it happens". Will keep everyone posted. Thanks for all the supportladies.

May, I agree this cycle is promising for you. Early O is a good sign.

KDK, hope you get your smiley tomorrow.

Happy thanksgiving to all the US ladies.

Thinking about you, sunny

 

[Sunny skies]

Thinking about you, sunny

Still no AF, my blood work came back negative. I'm so frustrated. I'm going to see my doctor on Tuesday and may run some more tests. I'm going to ask about getting my remaining tube checked and possibly a referral to a fertility clinic too. What a crappy start to my weekend.

 

[Tasha S.]

Sunny! I'm so sorry!!! It sucks getting AF late...I mean, if she's gonna come, she might as well come sooner. I'm really happy to hear that your DH is involved and being supportive! That makes all the difference!

May: What CD are you on?? So happy to hear of that early ovulation!!

KDK: Are you testing soon??

Krys: What's up with you girl??

AFM: CD 22--TWW. I think I prefer the first two weeks of the cycle to the last two. The first two, I feel full of potential (lol!), and the last two, I feel this dread that what's done is done and there's nothing I can do to change anything! Patience has never been one of my most outstanding virtues! I'm trying not to symptom spot, but I can't help it! So here they are: this morning I woke up with heavy and sore boobs (that usually happens for me, but it didn't last cycle, that's already looking up!), I'm tired (but I'm at the end of my semester, so that's normal!), and (brace yourselves, this is really funny!) I peed myself right in front of my bathroom door!! I can't believe that happened! I just couldn't hold it! Hehe!

 

[Sunny skies]

Tasha, I know what you mean, we always start hopeful and by the end your preparing for the witch. TTC sucks, sometimes symptom spotting helps pass the time.

At least it looks like AF is finally on its way, after being almost 1.5 weeks late, I finally saw some spotting. Hope it arrived by tomorrow so I can get on with the next cycle.

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Tasha - I am CD 23 today and I think 3 DPO? I completely agree with you! I have no patience either and I always over-analyze. DH said I am too hard on myself because I always dwell on whether we did enough or did it at the right time each cycle. My temps are all over the place after O because my sleeping schedule is completely thrown off by the holiday. No symptoms for me. Glad I have someone to endure this TWW with! Wishing you the best of luck!

Sunny - sorry the results were negative. Lets hope AF comes soon so you can start a new cycle full of potential!

May: YAY!! We're TWW buddies again! We'll get through this! I think we're about the same DPO. I didn't use an OPK this month, so I can't be sure, but if I rely on the cramping that I got, I would say that I O'ed either on CD 18 or 19. I have approximately 30-32 day cycles. Have you already planned when you're going to test?? I need support here! I have 4 pregnancy tests in my house and I only want to use one!! (I'm horrendously bad at holding out!). I'll match your testing day! All the best to you too May!!!

Sunny: I'm thinking of you girl!!! I really wish you the best of luck on your upcoming cycle!!! We're here for you!

 

[BamBamsMaMa]

Tasha - I usually tell myself not to test till I am late with AF but every cycle I am tempted to POAS! I am supposed to get AF on Dec 3rd and I know I won't be able to hold out that long but I am going to try. I wont test unless I get lots of unusal symptoms or if I am late. It's going to be a long TWW! I say you shouldn't test till after 10 DPO!
