I've been testing every day since Friday and been getting 's. I also think I maybe out because my temp dropped some yesterday and today it only went up a bit. I was so sure this would be my cycle because of my weird temps and some preggy symptoms but now I think will show up soon.

 

[mom2pne]

I finally uploaded pics to my photobucket acct. Some of the pics maybe from last year so if my twins look younger in some thats probably why. Heres the link:

Good look for those who are still waiting to test x

 

[NickyT75]

Sorry again Reedy hun

Im going for 21 day bloods done on 6th Dec so I feel happier that things are moving forwards

Hopefully I'll get my BFP a week later so I won't need to go for any further tests FX x

 

[Sambatiki]

Nicky - what are 21 day bloods for?? x

 

[maccy]

So sorry Reedy, lets hope we get some BFP in Team Kokopelli, before Christmas.


Thinking of you Mariucha hun!!!!! (see 2nd tri post)

 

[NickyT75]

Thanks Nicky & Kerry x

Nicky - what are 21 day bloods for?? x

it is a progesterone levels test which proves whether you are ovulating or not x

 

[NickyT75]

Then I have to go for CD3 bloods which test for...

Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH): a blood test will measure whether sufficient quantities of FSH are being produced by your body. FSH triggers the follicles within your ovaries to begin preparing for the release an egg. High levels of FSH are generally an indicator that egg reserves are running low, although they also signal an overall imbalance of hormones

Luteinizing hormone (LH): lutenizing hormone controls egg development. During ovulation, levels of LH surge in order to trigger the release of the egg. Consistently high levels of this hormone in your body can prevent this increase, and might also be an indicator of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Prolactin: a blood test will also measure levels of prolactin. Prolactin is a stress hormone that is released by the pituitary gland. High levels of prolactin can prevent the release of FSH and LH. Prolactin is the hormone that also eventually stimulates the production of breast milk

(but im hoping I won't need to go for CD3 tests coz I'll get my BFP instead of another CD1) x

 

[FsMummy]

[Poshie]

Hi girls, I'm yet to make that official jump to this thread, so sorry for hijacking.

Nicky - just a question on CD21 tests and progresterone. How does it prove your ov'ing? Is it simply that your levels rise after ov?

 

[NickyT75]

Yeah Poshie I think so x
