long cycles support thread :) the yelping vaginas club! (closed group)

[Rachel789]

Congrats lil!! So exciting

Nat I am right there with u fed up. Af will show today or tomorrow then on to tests tests tests. Woohoo

 

[Rachel789]

The good news is I'm on the beach right now drunk.

 

[bnporter81]

Rachel, to you...I'm sorry you're feeling out this cycle. You never know, maybe the witch won't show. FX'd for you, hon

Nat, I've been really frustrated too. Today is CD70 and it has the makings of being my longest cycle since I started temping in January.I *think* I might have ovulated yesterday...and I did have a nice temp rise today so I'll just have to watch it over the next couple of days. But it makes me really nervous

I also had that reading from Gail a couple of months ago which predicted an August BFP of a girl, sooo, I guess we'll see about that...it sure would be nice

Have a great day, girls.

getting drunk is always the answer is it monday your appointment?

sorry bethany if it's any consolation I had a random 77 day cycle and then my next one was back to 'normal' (55 days I think it was) - I have nooo idea why I had one much longer cycle! so even if this one is long the next one might be ok, not that 55 days is short but it's much more desirable than 77 days iykwim hope you get what I'm trying to say

 

[Rachel789]

Bethany-the + opk along with the temp rise is a really good sign. You must have o'ed!

Nat-my appt is on Tuesday. I am really looking forward to it. I just want an answer as to why my cycles are wacky and why I'm not getting pregnant.

Af is def on her way today. Temp is down and I'm feeling Grampus. Today is 15 doo and this is when she normally shows. The good news is the last two cycles I spotted for 2-3 days before af but no spotting this time!

 

[Rachel789]

Lol once again auto correct got me Grampus=crampy

 

[raventtc]

well ladies i will join your fed up group -- af showed up this am -- last night i started to get a headache and i just knew that she was coming....oh and we just found out that my hubbys cousin is preggo again!! and everyone told us its our turn and my hubby just said well when god says its okay then it'll happen...but later when people were still asking us he just said well its not for lack of effort!! we are trying!! ahhhh i just wanted to leave and climb in bed, and then i get up this am and found af ---- frustrated isn't even what i feel right now!!

 

[Rachel789]

Raven- I am so sorry AF showed, I feel your pain She showed for me as well this morning.

 

[foquita]

grampus I thought it was an american word for grumpy

so sorry raven and rachel xxxxxx

 

[foquita]

how long have you been trying for raven?

rach did you decide what to do about clomid this cycle?

 

[Rachel789]

Nat-I really am turned off from clomid due to the side effects, thining my lining, and lack of cm so I am going to beg my dr. to put me of femara right away. If he won't I may do the clomid but I think I will take the lowest dose so the side effects arent as bad. I have been on 100mg so I would take 50 mg. I really just want to make sure I have a normal cycle so I dont have to wait forever or take provera. But ultimately I am hoping my dr. will be ok with giving me femara and IUI right away. I really don't see why I should have to wait?

Grampus Too me it sounds like another word for Grandpa

 

[mrsc81]

Sorry to hear the witch got you Rachel & Raven

This thread is getting luckier, im sure more bfp's are just around the corner

 

[MommyDream]

for Rachel and Raven.

 

[raventtc]

how long have you been trying for raven?

rach did you decide what to do about clomid this cycle?

we have be trying since sep11 -- with charting and all that, but before that i wasn't on bc and we weren't preventing since jan08??

i changed ff since i felt like its not light at all its more like spotting, but i still now she is coming and i am out, again!

 

[bnporter81]

Thanks Rachel, I sure hope I O'd. And hey, I was thinking you meant like a Grandpa, tooI thought you meant you were just feeling grumpy like an older person

Raven, I'm sorry AF showed this morning...I know it's so frustrating

 

[cmwilson]

Oh Rachel and Raven, I'm so sorry about AF. I know how you are feeling but our time will come.

Rachel - Good luck at your appointment! I hope you'll get put on Femara right away. You'll have your HSG this cycle? Maybe you'll be lucky like Lil!

Raven - With you consistently ovulating I know it's just a matter of time. Do you think you may go see a doc at the one year mark?

Bethany - That temp spike along with OPK looks like you finally o'd!! Did you get in a lot of ?

Nat - How are things with you sweetie?

Bex, Louise, and Lil - Hope your little beans are snuggling in nicely. I can't wait for all your appointments and scan pics!

Katya - I hope your appointment goes well and you FINALLY get provera!

Dee - Haven't heard from you in a while, hope things are going ok!

Jbk and zketchie - I look forward to following your journeys!

Woo I think I got everybody! I am taking my fourth provera tonight. I'm gonna call my doc tomorrow to get my prescriptions for femara and bravelle sent in. Otherwise nothing really going on here.

 

[Rachel789]

Raven-I agree with Caroline with your normal cycles now it will only be a matter of time.

Bethany-I see your temp is still up!

Caroline-I hope this time on provera goes by fast for you. I know how boring it is to be on it!

I am really looking forward to my appt tomorrow since my last RE appt with such a disappointment. I started drinking raspberry leaf tea for my lining, will continue eating brazil nuts for my lining, and also started EPO to help with cm. I really hope all of those things along with the HSG this cycle will help me get my BFP finally. For those of you who had the HSG, please reassure me it isnt a big deal, I am a little nervous for it. I will likely be getting it done within a week.

 

[cmwilson]

Rachel - My HSG was a breeze. I made it out to be so much worse in my head. I had some minor cramping when they injected the dye but other than that no big deal. I took two aleve about an hour beforehand. In fact I had more cramping with my IUI than the HSG. Now my tubes were clear but I hear that it can be a bit more uncomfortable if a tube is blocked but I don't think that will be a problem for you. I would definitely not get too worked up about it. I stressed way too much about it.

 

[seabean]

LIL! CONGRATS !!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow I can't believe the luck in here lately! How are you feeling? Have you and your hubby recovered from the shock yet?!

Sorry that the B/Witch got you Raven & Rachel. Rachel good luck with your appointment!

Well I didn't ovulate on CD 19 like I did last cycle, but if I don't ovulate in the next day or two, I will be convinced that my body won't EVER ovulate again...because I have insane amounts of EWCM, I'm cramping like whoa, and check out these OPKs...I HAVE to ovulate now!

TOP=last night (it's dried out, sorry)
BOTTOM=this morning (w/in 3 minutes!)
