Hey Jessica!!!!!!

So glad Jordan's birthday went well and So sorry he isn't here to celebrate it with you. I'm Sure he is up there looking down at his wonderful family feeling very loved.
I cant imagine the heart ache you must still be feeling. Just know we are here for you honey.

Hopefully the provera will do it's job soon so you can get back into the swing of things.
And BTW.......we love you too...... Without your first post none of us would have found such good friends in each other.



Cbmd.......... I can get to your link. and by the look of that great big dip you had yesterday, thats when you Oed. Temps should go way up from here on. Baby dance again real soon if you can.

bugbabe fixed it for me - all my opks are negative though...can you dip without ovulation? xx

 

[Bugbabe77]

I know - how clever am I??? Hehehe x
Sarah, I think I may have ov'd today - what do u think?

 

[cbmd]

trying hard - thanks for that - i didnt know! or maybe didnt read properly - hope the femera works with much less side effects xxx

 

[trying hard]

looks like it bugbabe Tomorrow will tell I guess.
My Ov twinges have stopped now so I'm guessing I Oed yesterday. (Ouch now it hurts) I lost my thermometer so temping for me this month but with having bloods done on day 10 and 13 I didn't really need to.
I am soooooo over sex now. Sam wants to give it one more go tonight which I should be grateful for but honestly it just aint fun when you have to do it.

Cbmd you cant trust opks with pcos best indicator for you is temping

 

[Bugbabe77]

Funny cos I've had no ov pains this month - last month I was in agony

 

[cbmd]

hi ladies...please could you chart experts check my chart? ive had no side effects at all, no pains, all opks negative.....but my chart did dip yesterday? does it dip without ovulation? im not really sure whats going on
xx

 

[Jordans_Mommy]

AF showed up yesterday !! And its crazy that I had just had that big tantrum lol . Going in my for my baseline ultrasound hopefully today then starting fermara tomorrow !!

 

[Baby Feet]

Ladies,

RE found some bad things, he even called me ahead of my appointment time to tell me, hubby and I are now going to see another specialist. I cannot get into details yet, but its not good as of now. Please keep me in your prayers and thoughts, the earliest I could get in is a month from now... I will be around this form, as its been very encouraging for me and I will need the support of ladies who understand this process. I have to stop all medications for now, until we know what it all is.....

[trying hard]

Yay jessica!!!!!!!
Hooray for a period lol


Baby feet. Sorry things arn't going very well, All the best honey. We are here if you need to share.


Cbmd. I would have expected more of a rise than that for O. don't give up though you may go way up tomorrow. You should really be getting some bloods or scans done to make sure it has even worked, especially considering the PCOS. I would call your docs office and see what the say. It may help if you talk to a nurse as apposed to your normal doc who obviously doesn't want to do everything possible.


Bloody clomid is already messing with my body. Boobs are achey, I washed out Madelyn's hot chocolate cup out from last night and it was a little funky. (normally ok with it) Not today, I started reaching!! yuck. Way too early for pregnancy symptoms. Once again the clomid is going to mess with my head. STINK. At least I know and can try ignore my body.


Hope every one has a great day!!!!!!!

 

[cbmd]

thanks trying hard - i dont really understanding temping fully yet...if my temps dont rise that much is it safe to assume i havent ovulated? i called the drs today but got his horrible secretary who told me i must continue with just the same amount and basically i couldnt be booked back into the clinic unless it was for something really important - so basically im back to just bumbling along on my own trying to figure it out
xx

 

[trying hard]

Thats horrible!!!! How rude of them!!! Sorry, getting angry here on your behalf . I am right in remembering you are not being monitored right?

The norm for somebody with PCOS is start on 50mg. If first cycle fails to make you O then you should be put straight up to 100mg and so on

They are screwing with your life here. The most clomid months you are allowed is 6 and If they waste them on a dose that isn't necessarily making you O then whats the point. GGGRRRRR.

When you call can you be transferred straight to the nurses station? Don't let them bully you around. Just because you are being publicly funded, you still have the right to proper health care.

Im so pissed for you!!


Good luck hun. Hopefully temp will rise dramaticly tomorrow so none of it matters. Good luck honey. Thinking of you

thanks...well my temp has just leveled out....so think i def havent ovulated yet...im glad im temping as maybe it will highlight a problem?? im pretty pissed too....i hate secretarys like that who think they can tell you whats what....she never even called me back yesterday!! I think i might do one more cycle and see what my temps look and if they look totally wrong im going to insist to go back to see him..........it totally stresses me out...so much i think id rather be skint and pay for ivf privately!! xx

Hi everyone! Good luck with this cycle everyone. Cbmd, cycles are so hard to predict and decipher sometimes. I try to go with the OPK, but even that failed me this time around as I'll explain below.

Baby feet - I hope that you are okay, sounds like a stressful time wishing that all turns out the best for you.

As for me, here is my check-in:
Yesterday I called to get my results for my blood test and the lh was low when I thought that I had ovulated. I was very confused. I get lots of CM because some of my glands are on the outer of my cervix after the birth of my son. So, it makes me very aware of when my fertile time is. I took the blood test and the day after my CM was starting to dry up, so thought was good timing... Plus on that day my temp dropped and now is at its normal after O temps. Really strange. So I took another blood test and will ring back tomorrow for the results. If he still says lh is low I will just ask if I can go for the full panel to see what all my levels are. I started taking the progesterone pessaries anyway, I guess I just know that I have already ovulated even if it was before that day. Which I guess is the only explanation???

 

[cbmd]

shelley - its so confusing isnt it!! i wish i could see inside my body and see whats going on! sometimes i wish we didnt have to temp/opk because i feel it makes me get a bit obsessive so when it doesnt work it makes me more dissapoinnted....but if i didnt we would have to bd everyday and dont think poor oh could stand it
anyway im trying to think what will be will be ..im pretty sure i havent ovulated and wont this month....but there is always the month after!!

[Bugbabe77]

hey cbmd - your chart looks scarily like mine - i was so sure i ovulated the other day - loads of ewcm and now i'm not so sure - no temp rise, well, not enough to be over the cover line.
I'm so pissed off right now - have been having to beg OH for sex and he even refused me the other night (i know, a man refusing sex - what is the world coming to?)
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

 

[kel21]

Does anyone else use Robitussin? I see a lot of you ladies talk about checking you're cm and I have never done it! I don't even know how or what to look for! Just bought the syrup today, and just wondered if anyone else knows that it works!
