Oh wow!!!! Your 10am is just about positive. Do a 2pm too! With your cramps it sounds like you're about to ovulate.

I thought so too TTC but my 2pm and 4pm are much lighter than the 10am I know I'm being super impatient but I'm just feeling pretty emotional about all of it. The crampyness I feel sucks, everything is just achy now, not painful just uncomfortable.

Four, thats why I stopped taking OPKs, it literally made me crazy. I do agree with ttc that the 10am looks positive, maybe you had a very short surge en you are Oing today? It is very possible. I hope you dont go too crazy with the silly OPKs, my advice would just be to BD every day and wait for the bloodtest.

 

[ttc126]

Four my surge on clomid was quite short. Literally one positive and if I hadn't tested on 7pm that night I would've missed.... I think the plan of bd and just waiting for the bloodtest is a good idea. ❤

Thanks ladies, I know you're right I ordered 50 OPK's so I figured I would test just to seat but you're right it's making me stressed and bonkers! I took another at 6pm tonight and there wasn't even hardly a line to it...I'm still cramping a little and I've been nauseas off and on today so hopefully I'm not catching a bug. I told hubby I would take another tonight at 10 after a 4 hour hold and probably finish out this week charting with OPK's then just leave it to charting, hopefully I'll see a shift in my temp!

 

[Nita2806]

50 OPKs I dont think I have ever in my whole life owned so many. The packs here have either 3 or 10, and the 10 packs are the CB ones, so they are super expensive.

Oh I hope you O, I really wouldn't worry much about the OPKs if I were you. Keep us updated if you continue. Id much rather see a positive on a HPT from you this month

 

[ttc126]

Well Nita I've ordered that 50 pack online more times than I like to admit. I think I went through 4.... My clinic had me test a lot....

A three pack is useless.... lol

We dont have 50 packs here lol. I tested only once a day in my previous cycles. I dont think I owned more than 20 in the whole year of ttc

 

[ttc126]

Yeah they aren't in store you have to order them... my clinic said test 3 times a day... not that it ever did a thing until I was on clomid ❤

 

[Four2Five]

Yea the 50 pack is only $16 USD when we purchase them online through Amazon

Ive been at this awhile but in my opinion, none of those OPK are + just yet. The newest are the closest but not quite + yet.

You could also try the digi ones. Target has their own version and then clearblue of course. You can buy the clearblue sticks for much cheaper on ebay.

No guessing on lines.

 

[ttc126]

On the other side of things Four, I used that exact kind and they looked like that and I'd go get ultrasounds and see that I was in fact surging and ovulating at that time....

 

[Ask4joy]

I agree with Earth - not positive yet. You'll know it when it is as the test line will be what I call"blazing positive"!

 

[Four2Five]

Thanks ladies! I tested again at 10am and the line was barely visible, same thing at 3pm...so I'm thinking this is going to be another annovulatory cycle Looks like once again my body geared up to O but didn't quite make it...hopefully my 21 day blood test sheds some light. I'm hoping they will up my Clomid to 150, if that doesn't work I imagine we will give up TTC #3 and just move on with life with our two dd's...it's a heartbreaking thought but I honestly can't do this for long.

I'm super nauseas and tired today and feel emotional about the whole ordeal.

Four, I'm sorry you're so discouraged ❤ Do you still have cramps?

 

[Four2Five]

Yea just a little crampy but with lots of bloated pressure just in the lower half of my stomach. It just feels "full" and uncomfortable, it's not on one side or the other just all over.

 

[ttc126]

That's seriously how I felt at ovulation. Just stay positive and hopefully you did ovulate or will soon.

 

[Four2Five]

You are so sweet TTC, thank you for the encouragement I've never felt so impatient before lol this cy is definitely a tough one, so thankful I can come here and let my emotions roll
