Thanks guys for the It really means a lot to me!!

I went to the 2nd Dr yesterday and she pretty much told me the same thing my regular OBGYN did.... that my OPKs are wrong, I need to throw them away because I have to be O'ing on (or around) day 13. So now it's two professional opinions against my one amatuer opinion Which is a good thing, maybe they are right and all this freaking out is for nothing???

In my head though it still doesnt add up. I've gotten negative OPKs (with Wondfo AND with the Clearblue Fertility Monitor) up until CD day 20-21 three months in a row, and then AF arrives day 27 I don't see how I could be O'ing on day 13 without any sign of an LH surge....

Any theories?

I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!! I have a three day weekend we were planning on going to Tahoe but it looks like the weather is going to be yucky, small planes and thunderstorms don't mix. Does anyone have any exciting plans???

The only thing I could think to do is start temping to confirm the spike that you OVd, but my OPKs were right on the money and I was able to get preggers even thou I didn't OV until about day 22.

The 21 day bloods should confirm though where you are at in your cycle, so maybe it will be easier to talk to the docs after that.

After my first pregnancy that ended in chemical, I had a sneaky suspicion I didn't OV in the middle of my very normal 28 day cycles cause DH left town about 5 days before. So I started taking baby aspirin and bumped up my B Vits to get a good lining, and my next BFP stuck. I know there's more foods you can take to naturally help out LPs so maybe check into that?

 

[bluebird]

B vitamins and baby asprin, sounds easy enough!!! What kind of B vitamins did you take? There's so many different numbers

 

[mackjess]

The one I took had B6 and B12, and I kept taking that thru the first tri because it also helped with morning sickness. I ran out once, and that was the only few days I really really felt sick with MS.

How long til your 21 day tests? Maybe that will show you O'd sooner, I've heard the OPKs don't work for everyone. I don't think I could ignore them on a doctor's word though since they help so many people out. Those blood results should really help a lot with what your cycle is doing and confirm if you're right.

I would try to temp to try to confirm O...

 

[bluebird]

Yeah I think temping is a good idea, that will give me a better idea of what's going on here. Another piece of the puzzle! My day 21 test is scheduled for April 11th- so then I'll know for sure

Bluebird- I'm sorry you're having so much frustration. Hopefully the RE will have something useful to add too. My best friend went to a specialist who told her she screwed up the opk's and had pcos and would probably never have a baby. Turned out she was pregnant the whole time. My fingers are crossed for you. You got pregnant once, and I believe you'll do it again.

Cosmos- thanks! How are you doing?

Johnsongirl- fx'd for you!!!

I totally understand. If this hadn't been our cycle, I was giving up for a bit too. TTC is exhausting in many ways. I'll be watching this board and waiting for your BFP soon!

AFM, not feeling great, but the nausea is oddly comforting. At least I know the hormones are working properly. It's tough not to be anxious- that's normal of anyone with a loss/losses. I have learned to avoid some of the pregnancy boards bc I get irritated when ppl complain of morning sickness, etc. they have no idea how much worse it feels to lose the baby and have no more symptoms or signs you were ever pregnant. I just pray this is a healthy one, and I can tolerate the symptoms as they come!

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Sophiasmom- I totally know what you mean about the pregnancy boards! The only one I look at is the Pregnant After Loss board.p

Baby Girl- so sorry for your losses! Hope you get your bfp soon!!
