[CLOSED] ex-SMEP ladies waiting for lightening to strike.

[Lionchild]

I'm on CD10 so we are in the every other day cycle right now. Nothing interesting to report just waiting to ovulate!! I feel so impatient but I really think time slows down when you are waiting to O or waiting to test.

You're right, time moves soooo slooowly during those parts of the cycle (so basically most of the cycle). GL!!

CD 8 here. At least 7 days to O for me. La di da di da...

Well ladies I think I'm out this month I tHink af is coming early this evening I started spotting dark brown almost black blood (sorry if tmi) and I think she will be here full force later on tonight.... My fiance is more upset than I am because he say he just knew junior was in there well I guess we are moving on to the next cycle.

 

[ProfWife]

Wytrease, I've heard before (at the little training session I had on the Creighton Method of natural family planning) that if you're spotting dark brownish before your cycle it could be a sign of a progesterone issue which might be preventing a pregnancy from sticking. Have you ever talked with your doctor about getting that checked?

 

[RForReal]

Sorry to hear Wytrease. Hopefully next month will be your month!

 

[Wytrease]

Prowife no I haven't this is the first time it has happened but I have an appointment coming up next week so I will be sure to let her know what happened & RForReal thank you I hope so too

 

[ProfWife]

I will be talking with mine about it, too. I already know I'm estrogen dominant because of the PCOS. So, that may be one of my issues as well.

Hi ladies! I am on cd3 after an annovulatory month. Going to try SMEP again this cycle. I just need to wait another week to start it. I really need to work on my patience

 

[Wytrease]

Good Luck NDTaber & Prowife this is something that I have never experienced before but af is fully here now so back to cd1 for me.... I was sure we had succeeded this month

 

[Wytrease]

Well ladies I went to the doctor yesterday morning and he did blood work & he confirmed that there was low levels of hcg present I'm my blood and I may have experienced a chemical pregnancy I go back on Monday for another blood test

 

[RForReal]

Oh so sorry Wytrease!

 

[ProfWife]

Oh girl...

 

[LillyTame]

oh no wytrease, im so sorry to hear that

 

[ProfWife]

Officially out this month.

Likely going to SMEP for April, use the Creighton method rather than BBT (stress levels are getting the better of me), and taking FertilAid + EPO.

 

[LillyTame]

awww Profwife rough month for our thread.

sending out lots of OV and baby dust for April to all my SMEP sisters

 

[Wytrease]

Thank you ladies and I'm sorry to hear that you are out Prowife

 

[RForReal]

Okay ladies I have a question. I had negative OPKs most of the day yesterday and then finally a positive at 10 PM. Another positive this morning. So as far as SMEP goes should I count today as the first positive since it was so late last night? Any ideas?

 

[LillyTame]

I always make sure I try to start bd'ing on the 1st "positive" but count the last dark one I get as my positive.

I'm so sorry, Wytrease.

Sorry about, AF. I hope you are able to have a stress-free cycle this go-around. GL!

I agree with LillyTame's response.
