that's what I'm thinking now rach, especially since the same happened to you! nevermind, I have femara now

 

[bnporter81]

Rachel, sorry I'm no help on what the proper progesterone level should beBut I do kind of think that maybe your temps would be a little lower and closer to the coverline, maybe, if your progesterone was too low?If you're concerned about the progesterone then if you test and get a BFP then I'd definitely call your doc as soon as you find out and ask them about testing it and supplementing with progesterone. But this far into your LP I don't really think you need to start the progesterone unless you get your BFP. I believe your levels are probably fine, thoughTry not to worry

can someone confirm if i can take tomorrow's progesterone at night when I took it in the morning today?

I think since you have only taken 1 it should be fine. You are doing the 10-day right? So you will have 9 days in a row of taking it at night...I think that should be fine!

 

[Rachel789]

I agree with Dee it shouldnt be a problem!

 

[cmwilson]

Nat - I always took my Provera at night too to avoid side effects. I agree with Dee and Rachel, I don't think switching to nights is a problem even if you're only doing 5 days.

Rachel - I'm not sure about the EWCM but I wouldn't necessarily say it is a bad thing. If it's something different from last cycle I would take it as a good thing. This is probably TMI but I had a weird piece of cm today that kind of looked like yellow snot. Gross I know . It was only once this afternoon and then it was gone. I guess its from the suppositories. Gross, cm can drive you crazy sometimes!

 

[foquita]

thanks for the advice ladies I'm doing the 5 days so I'm just going to hope it'll be ok! I'm going out for dinner and drinks tonight so I don't want to be falling asleep!

I'm so excited to start the femara

 

[Rachel789]

Caroline-It is different for me. Normally during the TWW I get some creamy cm and sometimes creamy looking stretchy cm but I never had true ewcm like that. But it was just one glob of it and I havent seen it since. What is even stranger today is that I woke up to bone dry cm. That never happens to me after I O. I know a lot of ladies dry up but I always have something even the day after but it is normally creamy, sticky, or that stretchy creamy stuff. Also the past two nights I woke up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat. I know its not the clomid anymore because I havent been having hot flashes during the day so not sure what that's about. Other than that I don't have any other "symptoms" yet, no sore boobs or anything. My temps have been pretty steady not sure if thats a good or bad thing

I see you havent been able to stop yourself from temping yet, you are addicted like me

 

[seabean]

Rachel - I am so excited that this might be your cycle! Different CM than the norm is a good sign! And your temps are way stable, much more than the past cycle!

HOLY CRAP RAVEN - your chart looks amazing!! Your temp is still way up there! Are you testing today!? Tomorrow?!?! TEST!!!

Bethany - your chart is still looking like you O'd to me! Do ever have any post-O symptoms that are agreeing w/ your temps?

Caroline - This just HAS to be your month too

 

[seabean]

Nat - how is the progesterone so far? Any symptoms?

 

[foquita]

I would say that's an amazing sign rach!! I also hardly ever have NO cm especially after O!

Caroline I've never had yellow, it's a typical pregnant sign is it not

dee I felt like collapsing with tiredness yesterday, I haven't taken it today yet - going to wait til I've finished work

 

[cmwilson]

Rachel - I would take the CM changes as a good sign! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! And yes, I just can't seem to stop temping! I am going to temp until 7 dpo because that's half way. Let's see if I can stop!

Raven - Your temps are looking great!! When will you test?!

Nat - Thanks for the excitement on the CM but I really think it is the suppositories because they are yellow. I'm sure that's all it was. I don't have anything else going on symptom-wise...

Well I just heard from my doctor about my progesterone levels and they told me they are a little lower than they like to see, the level sounded good to me but I guess not. SERIOUSLY?! I'm already doing three progesterone suppositories a day and it still isn't enough?! My natural progesterone must suck ass! Anyway, I'm up to 4 suppositories a day now. I'm not feeling too optimistic anymore.

 

[raventtc]

thanks for the chart love! i guess maybe i should buy a test...and maybe do it in the am sunday or monday (i am soo nervous)...if my temp doesn't drop, ff shows af starting on tuesday. Last cycle i started spotting on 16dpo and then full flow. So i am unsure since i have loved my chart in the past and she showed up...i just am trying to stay calm i guess and not work myself up cause if she does show its that much harder to move on..

 

[Rachel789]

Raven-Your chart does look great! But I know the feeling. I have gotten my hopes up based on my chart so many times and nothing came of it so I am trying not to read into it too much

I am due for AF probably Tuesday or Wed. My LP pre clomid was about 12-13 days, and when I was on clomid it was 14 so not sure if it will go back to the 12-13 day range since I am off it or what If my temps still look good and no spotting I will probably test tuesday.

I hope everyone else is doing well and has a good weekend

 

[seabean]

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Sorry about that temp drop raven...did you end up testing?

Rachel, was your spotting AF coming...or maybe even IB??

Caroline...sucks you have to endure all those suppositories, but that's amazing they monitor you so closely! They will be worth it for sure, if this your bfp!!

I took the weekend off of temping. Not much going on yet...I am hoping I o in a week or so!

 

[Rachel789]

Dee-I am not sure what to think about the spotting. It happened after we BD'ed and this happens to me after BD'ing even during the middle of my cycle. I asked my RE about it and he didn't seem concerened since my exams and pap smears are all normal. I hate it though because now I am wondering if AF is on her way I wish we didn't BD, I hate doing it close to when AF is due because the spotting always worries me.

 

[seabean]

If its normal, then I wouldnt worry about it. Sounds too early for AF, plus your temps are still up! Fingers crossed!

 

[raventtc]

didn't test sunday since temp dropped and then started spotting...and this am she was here full force!! oh well not my month again not much of a shocker anymore..i just expect to have a nice chart and af thats just how its been sooo frustrating!!

 

[Diddums]

Sorry raven hugs for you

I've started doing opk. Two days ago there was no test line and this morning the test line was a bit darker so I hope that's the LH increasing and my body gearing up to O. I hope so anyway.

Rachel I also spot sometimes are we bd. Depends on position I think. If its normal I wouldn't worry too much.

Been on a 18mile bike ride today. My legs are dead lol. Still just cooking lunch then clean my bedroom and ensuite, then I can finally have a hot bath and relax lol. Xxx
