I need some input...multiple MCs, trying progesterone

[Chilli]

Ruskie - i discovered I was pg Ruskie which accounts for the high levels - now just playing the waiting, hoping game!

 

[Ruskiegirl]

Thats great hun !!!! Are they going to put you on progesterone ??

 

[Ruskiegirl]

So i took my first dose of prometirum last night all it did was make tired and i had lots of watery cm today and some mild cramping i hope this is normal!

 

[moonmama]

Dont think I said congrats Ruskie- so got every thing crossed for you!

Whats happening with you chilli?

 

[Chilli]

Not a lot thank goodness - Ruskie you're just behind me, that's great. I haven't been prescribed anything as never got to get a test without being pg so don't know if actually low or not. But all seems well, symptoms are there enough for me to feel pg which is reasssuring -I'm so exhausted! Just keeping my fingers crossed and hoping this one sticks

Yay! so pleased for you! when I read your thread wasnt sure if I was reading it right!

 

[Chilli]

Thanks moon mama - i suppose I'm a bit reluctant to admit it in case it all goes wrong again. how are things with you?

 

[moonmama]

Its so sad that you cant allow yourself to be excited because of past disappointments! I hope you have the confidence to get a ticker soon

I'm ok thanks, 9dpo but nothing exciting to report here

How are the other pregnant ladies who posted on here?

 

[CJSG1977]

Thats great news Chilli! I hope that you feel confident enough to put a ticker up soon. I understand how you feel though.

I hope everyone else is ok.

AFM I'm CD18 and have had positive OPK's since CD13!!! Today the test line was way darker than the control line so I am assuming that OV still has not happened. My temp is 97.8 still so I dont know whats going on. I've never ov this late! And it means my LP will not be long enough if I do conceive cause my cycle is always 28 days! So I dont know what to do now. I cant help but think that using the progesterone cream last month has messed my standard cycle up! But that means I'll have to use the cream this month or I wont have a long enough luteal phase. Which also means my cycle this month will be over 32 days! Maybe longer....which could also mean an even later ov next month. I am pissed at myself cause I am seeing the specialist on the 26th Oct and I have screwed my body up so she wont be able to understand my body for real. Unless it isnt the cream and my body just screwed itself up! Sorry for the rant!

 

[Chilli]

Oh CJS - our bodies are our own worst enemies sometimes aren't they! Hope yours gives you a nice surprise soon.

I'm not getting a ticker until 9 week scan which I'm having trouble organising - hospital NEVER return my call - so much for the caring profession! Anyway 2 weeks to go hopefully. I just found it so painful to cancel everything last time that I'm not starting it this time. Excitement is not a word I'm able to associate with pg anymore - fear and sadness yes - let's hope this is the one that proves me wrong!

Moon mama I had always known when pg with all previous pgs, but this one was a real shocker so you never know....

OMG just got called by gynae while writing - he's going to organise me a scan in 2 weeks!

 

[moonmama]

chilli its awful feeling like that during pregnancy - have you been able to tell anyone your news yet? Really pleased you got your scan date- you must keep us posted!

CJ really sorry your cycle is so mucked up! That would really annoy me too- I started the cream a few days ago but I'm a bit worried about it messing me up too. Do you think you'll carry on using it?

 

[CJSG1977]

I think I'll have too this cycle at least cause I need to make sure that my luteal phase is long enough. Dumb thing is I did a pregnancy test on CB digital and it said not pregnant which is fine... but I opened it up and there was a faint blue line...I thought evaps were gray but someone told me there are 2 lines on those.... I NEVER knew that. I am just trying to find an explanation for so many positive OPK's and no ov!!

I'm sure you'll be ok hun. This is the cycle after my first normal af so maybe I am just off......

 

[moonmama]

Are you going to do another test CJ? It does seem odd that your Opks are so strong!

Can I pick someones brain about this progesterone cream? When do you stop taking it prior to AF? I cant work out if its actually working on me at all - I was expecting my post ov temps to be higher than they used to be but if anything they're lower. The only thing is I dont have sore boobs or spotting like I normally do but usually sore boobs is strong sign of pregnancy for me so can rule that out too

 

[CJSG1977]

I found the cream eased symptoms....so thats normal. My temp was no different and also dropped the following cycle. I would stop using the cream 4-6 days before your due on cause it can make you late.

I've done another OPK and its just as dark today... I think I have a clotted follicle cause I am in crippling pain. If it doesnt rectify by friday I will have to go to the hospital cause I have ovarian cysts, so if it doesnt rupture it could keep growing. I have been told that the Clear Blues always have 2 lines on them.... I did a different test and it was negative so not preggers...

 

[moonmama]

Thanks for the info CJ- I had better stop taking it now then!!

Def sounds like you need to get checked out!! Hope whatever is happening to you settles down soon!

 

[Chilli]

CJS and moonmama - left a reply to you both the other day which isn't here for some reason so don't know if you read it!!??

Hope things sort themselves out for you CJS - keep us posted!

Moonmama I've also read that you should stop just before AF is due, not sure what you should do if get BFP though?

 

[CJSG1977]

Hi Chilli!!!! How are you hun?? Never saw your message I dont think....

It takes a few days for the levels to drop so that should cover the interim while waiting to find out if you have a bfp. Otherwise you will be permanently changing your cycles if you keep taking it. The 2WW would be the 3WW lol.

 

[moonmama]

hi chilli- dont think I read any post - what did it say?!

How are you? How is everyone doing?

 

[Chilli]

I can't really remember exactly what it said - just answering you both.

I'm sooooo tired it's crazy. Oh has been away so dd woke me up at 3 to go to the loo, couldn't sleep and had to get up at 4 to eat a banana! So I guess that's a good sign?? have scan in 2 weeks as previous losses before that so getting very anxious.

any news???

 

[CJSG1977]

Ah bless you Chilli! A rather interrupted night then. So bananas are your thing then??? LOL. I am not sure whats going on with me. I had 7 days of positive OPK's and didnt think I had.... but nonetheless my temp has gone up to 98.6! This morning I had a nosebleed! Whats that about...I never have nosebleeds and cant even remember when I had one last??! LOADS of creamy CM (and so much I thought I was bleeding but it wasnt tmi sorry) Felt very nauseous, headache, hot flush, slightly sensitive boobs...peeing a lot. But I dont understand how I could have these symptoms if I only ovulated 4 days ago....maybe 5. I have started using the progesterone cream today but af is due on the 22nd so I will only use it for 3 days so that she will come on time if I am not preggers.

Good luck with the scan Chilli, you will be fine darling! You just keep eating them bananas
