Does anyone have lupus anticoagulant antibodies? My test came back positive. I’m mind blown as it was negative in 2014.
I’m also scared as it can lead to stuff like clots, strokes and heart attacks.

Oooh sending baby dust @BabyBrain80 and @Deethehippy !

@loeylo i don’t but do have autoimmune issues and for me taking prednisone while ttc really helped the little bean stick. Have you been advised to take aspirin?

 

[Suggerhoney]

Awwww @Lozb I am so gutted for you hon. Was hoping it was IB.
Seriously hope this new cycle is ure BFP cycle. Fingers toes and everything crossed.

Not yet no. I need to test positive again 12 weeks after the first test, which is mid august. They did say to phone my gp if I get a positive pregnancy before then but my gp is useless and technically I’m not diagnosed until the second test I don’t know if I should hold off until mid august but the results have taken over W month to come back so we would be looking at September if I did that!

@loeylo I tested positive a couple years ago, but thankfully the next 2 were negative. Have to have either 2 positive or 2 negative in a row for a diagnosis either way. It is incredibly scary though. When I first was told it was positive it was almost like I was being diagnosed with lupus all over again. Lost hope and felt shattered. So sorry you're dealing with it and in the midst of ttc.

Well was jst some spotting for day and half which isn’t normal for me, af arrived full flow this afternoon. On to another month.

I'm so sorry

 

[Deethehippy]

@Lozb - I’m really sorry

I managed to BD last night so that’s good but this morning my temp has plummeted which suggests Ovulation day is today. I’m confused because I’ve always had the positive OPK on ovulation day before and not sure they can get any darker than yesterday’s but will see later.
I’m doubtful we will BD later so -3 and -1 is all we got this cycle, not feeling that hopeful.

Sorry AF for you! All the best with this cycle!

Sounds like you’re still in with a chance! Strange that your temp pattern is slightly different this cycle but I’ve found through all my tracking that my body will always throw curve balls. There’s so many variables that can impact on it and it’s very noticeable when we track it all so closely. Fingers crossed for you!

AFM it’s CD19 and this is the point in my last cycle that AF arrived so hoping that doesn’t happen today. I tested yesterday which was ridiculous and obviously a BFN. Will wait a few more days before trying again!

 

[Deethehippy]

@jellybeanxx - good luck for when you test.

Hi can I be added I'm going to be testing around the 2nd July, if AF doesn't show. This is my first cycle after MC

I have antiphospholipid syndrome which is part of the lupus family

Thanks - I think this is probably what I have. Are you on blood thinners?
