[cutieq]

Nice line jm!!!!!

 

[curiousowl]

Congrats jm!


I tested this morning on an IC and BFN but I think I'm only 8dpo (FF still says 9). So there's still time.

 

[MellyH]

JM, hooray!!! That's a very strong positive, congratulations!!

curiousowl, definitely too early. Wait a couple of days and test again!

12DPO here. Not much going on, couple of very faint twinges low on the left hand side but only because I'm paying SUUUUUPER close attention. Period watch starts now!

Yes still tons of time, really hope you get those two beautiful lines the next time you test!

 

[curiousowl]

Thanks Melly and twinkie! Definitely not counting myself out yet Still plenty of time!

That sounds super exciting Melly! Are you testing tomorrow?

AF got me. That means I just had a 6/7 day LP...any tips on elongating it?

 

[KrissyB]

JM - CONGRATS

AFM - SWEET JESUS the cramps.... I'm guessing by temps that today is O. Maybe it's because of the delayed O, but I have NEVER had cramps like this around ovulation. I mean I would thought these were pretty bad cramps even for AF. There will be no BDing tonight with this kind of discomfort. But we've had a good few days, and I'll aim for tomorrow.

 

[cravemyheart]

Here I thought I wouldn't ovulate until the beginning of July because my last cycle was 42 days. But I think my average cycle will be much less than that and that I only had 42 days because I came off bcp. So I think I'm gearing up to ovulate. My cm is becoming more and more egg white.

I should be ovulating on the 17th. But I leave town on the 16th. So I'm gonna did lots before I leave hoping to cover all bases. Dh doesn't want to Dtd tonight because he foresees himself being very tired when he gets home from work at 10pm. So I'm gonna try for more than once on Sunday.

Aw, sorry dove. I'm heard vitamin B6 can be good for elongating a short LP. And it's water-soluble so it's hard to OD on.

I've been taking b6 and b12 in preparation and trying to avoid this very thing, lol

 

[Pug2012]

I'll be testing on the 26th.....

Well today I had my ovary test ( HSG )....not good news not bad news either.

#1 if you're going to do the test. Prepair to be mortified by the lack of personal boundaries lol.
The radiology tech was sooo sweet and nice the doc was great and showed me everything on screen and explained what we saw.
#2 it's not nearly as painful as expected. More awkward, slight cramping.
#3 on to the findings.
They had a hard time finding my cervix at first. They thought it was because I was on a X-Ray table so after some uncomfortable searching they found it. Inserted a rubbery syringe that blows up like a ballon into my uterus. Mind you I saw this whole thing!
In screen I could see my uterus. It was perfect shape and I could see one ovary. They're soo skinny. I wasn't expecting it.
The doc injected the dye and I watched it go right to the left side and out like it was supposed to. I did some wiggling and he did more searching even adding more dye but we didn't see a right side. At all. It didn't look blocked....it didn't look there at all. There was no mistaken it. the dye went to the top of my uterus there was a small point where it should have been but that's it.

The md tried to reassure me all I need was 1 working ovarie but I couldn't help but break down. I've always known since forever that something was wrong. It was kinda relieving...but still heartbreaking.so now I'm in a limbo where I don't know what's next. Does this mean I only fully O every other month? Will I have to do IUI or IVF? What?! What's next!

I have to wait until July 11th to figure anything out. I had to call my horrible OB bc he was supposed to get me an antibiotic & they hadn't !! So when my pharmacist finally called it in they gave her a script for amoxicillin I'M ALLERGIC! Oye vey!
I talked to a friend who's had a lot of fertility issues and she reccomended a fertility specialist. So I may go that route too.
It's been a draining week. Glad to be going away this weekend that's for sure.
Also I've started telling my closest friends about our issues and it really does relieve a lot of pressure.

I copied this to repost. If you've seen it 2x sorry!

 

[hunni12]

I am so confused. Cd16 and 17 i had a positive opk n cd18 i had a negative now cd 19 i get this..and this is cm tmi pic. I feel so lost and confused now

Spoiler

That's not fertile cm...maybe i do need to temp next month

 

[xnmd1]

Hunni .. I haven't used opks myself but ive heard that after yiu get a positive one you should stop taking them because they can get kind of wonky after ovulation . Also I temp and I did have one month where I for sure ovulated but never got any ewcm . I think it was a bad egg or something. My temp slowly rised over a few days rather than jumping up. But AF appeares on shedule. It was a weird month.



MEG.. Sorry about your news. Though like you said it isnt all bad as you still have one perfect ovary. I hope you get the care you need and get your bfp soon xoxox

 

[KrissyB]

Hunni!! I am basically in the same position! Cd 14 I had all the signs of O - spotting a few days before, fertile CM, temp dip, but light OPKs. A few days later I got a clear positive OPK, but now I'm very late into my cycle, and my CM is creamy just like that!! And libido wise, I was raring to go around CD 14, and maybe I just burned out too early, but it's been a real effort the last few days.

I dunno, I'm just hoping we have our bases covered either way..... and if it's meant to be, a will happen.... eventually, since I have NO idea when to test now. I still don't have an O on FF on CD 21, and I usually have 26 day cycles.

 

[hunni12]

Its so confusing but i did hear to stop testing after the first positive

 

[Ilovetomatoes]

Hi Meg, sorry to hear the result of your HSG. I too only have my left tube left but because of my age, I think my RE is going to go with aggressive approach. I think we might start IVF soon. Hopefully, your RE can recommend other approach. FX.

 

[jmandrews]

Congratulations jm. Is there anything u did diff this month

You can see my chart if you want but we just BD a lot!!! But I ovulated 5 days later than normal. This cycle was so weird. I didn't expect a BFP.

 

[Cheekygringo]

Ow, serious cramps this evening and a wave of nausea.. maybe 10-11 dpo.. still waiting though. Might test tomorrow morn.
