I couldn't see a line, but the photo wasn't great - is there a faint line there? How many DPO's are you now?

I keep thinking I see it....it is so light. Im thinking it is an evap. Im guessing I am around 10dpo. So still early.

 

[Mommyagain]

Took the frer apart and there is a line....a stinkin evap line.

 

[MrsCompass]

I can't open the pic, so I can't see. So ... I shouldn't get excited?

I'm not due AF til Sun/Mon but I know I'm not preggo as my blood results are in (day 21). Progesterone was 48.3 (UK levels) and Estradiol 496. The progesterone at day 21 was too low for me to have conceived (it could be slightly possible but highly unlikely) so now I'm waiting AF. Good luck everyone else xx

Unfortunately not yet. But it is still early. I think I'm around 10dpo.

Thanks MrsCompass, I too and sorry for your loss. I am on the prometrium to start a new cycle since I havent had one in a few months. Speaking of....does anyone know how long it takes to bring on a cycle with this med? I am on 200mg twice a day and I forgot to ask the Dr when he gave it to me. I guess Im just anxious for it to come on and start so that I can get get the process moving along.

 

[MKHewson]

Okay ladies, I have a questions for you guys. I have gone blindly through this cycle with no blood work or US. So previously I OV'd day 14-16 but this cycle its was pretty obvious that with evidence of CM and cramping I like Ov'd day 20-21. So do you think I should count off 2 week from today will say before doing a POAS....I would want until i was late anyway before I test as I usually will get AF within 2 weeks. What do you think?

I usually started about 10 days after taking prometrium.

I think your instincts are right. Since you ovulated late, your period (not that you are going to get one because it will be BFP!) will probably be late too. I don't know about you, but my luteal phase has actually gotten a little longer on femara. It used to be 13-14 days and last month it was 16 days. Good luck!

 

[Cridge]

Welcome Iwantmyturn! You can actually start clomid or femara at any point in your cycle - as long as you know you're not pregnant, and preferably if you know you're not already producing a follie. So I wouldn't worry about starting it late, and I agree with ... whomever it was that said it ... that since most women start it on cd3, that's why your doc wants you to consider yourself at cd3. It's like starting your hormones over again.

I'm hoping to ovulate in the next few days, but I'm worried I won't. I started opk testing yesterday and still no +, but I don't really count on those anyway. My cf is pretty much ewcm, but it's not extremely abundant, so I don't know what to think.

I'm excited for all those that are getting ready to test!

Lola, if you don't have male fertility issue, I think bd'ing everyday would be ideal. I have also read a lot of bfp success stories with bd'ing every other day. Maybe leading up to your o day, do the every day schedule, then bd the two consecutive days before o.

My clinic tells us to bd every other day even after ovulation for the entire week just in case there are more eggs to be released. I typically give up after o, I'm just too tired!

I just want to be sure we are "doing it" right, my nurse just said between day 12 and 16, not specifically every day or every other day. Looks like another boy will be born in April, thats 5 boys since the hubs and i started TTC.

 

[MrsCompass]

Hi MK - I'm due to test next Thursday, Jan 18th. That would be 12 DPO. 7 more days to go.

Hi Cridge - I had the same worry as you. Since i ovulate so "quietly", not a sign, no CM, ... not a symptom ... on top of that negative OPK's (even though I don't trust them, there's still a little inside me that want to depend on them) ... but lo and behold, I ovulated. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, Cridge!!!

 

[IwantMyTurn]

Thanks Cridge!

I am assuming I should be ovulating within the next few days...RE said to start using OPK's tomorrow and to call when I get a postive...or if I don't. ....but I'm worried I might not even ovulate, b/c I hardly ever do, obviously from my PCOS.

PLUS..this might be TMI...but I've been bleeding on and off since Monday early morning...called RE and he said to contiue with the plan...
But have any of you heard of this, or experienced this?? It's making me nervous..because now, it's a pretty steady medium flow...I'm just confused in all of this!

Hoping you ovulate and get your BFP!
