March Testers!

[slammerkin]

Motherofboys did you do anything to lengthen your LP?

Still waiting to O here. Probably tomorrow or Tuesday. We BD yesterday and today so we're doing pretty well.

 

[lesondemavie]

Yea I'm curious about the lengthening of the LP too. Mine is 10 days, which is essentially the shortest you can get before you have a problem. I hesitate to change anything since we did get a BFP within 6 cycles (5 months) which seems pretty average for my age, buuut if there's anything I can do to speed it up I might consider it.

 

[mom and ttc]

I would like to join! I was out 8 weeks because my husband was gone for work and I had a 37 day cycle! My husband had a VR dec 15 and this would be #3.
While my husband (navy) was gone my dad got diagnosed with cancer and we had many other things happen in a short time, we are also currently trying to buy a house in Hawaii so I put active ttc on hold. Meaning no opk, we have been having sex about 3 times a week and according to my app I should ovulate around the second. This is our relaxed cycle. I will be testing March 17 if no period.
Last (time January) I tested from 6 dpo and was so disappointed so I will try to distract myself, working out every day and normal daily life. Wish me luck!

Hi there! Sounds like you've had a really stressful few months - hopefully a relaxed cycle will be just what you need

Well I have my crosshairs and FF thinks i ovulated on Friday! I thought it would be Saturday, but I did have the most EWCM on friday so who knows. I will probably wait until AF is a couple of days late to test as ovulating so early is unusual for me so I wouldn't want to get excited that AF is late and then it isn't.

 

[motherofboys]

I took vitamin b6. It lengthened it from 6 days to 10 days and it was about 6 months after that when I fell pregnant.

 

[slammerkin]

Welcome mom and ttc!

Might be O'ing today since I had a big temp drop. Negative OPKs yesterday but I might have missed the surge I guess. I'm new to OPKs. I'll know tomorrow based on temps. Fingers crossed because we BD the last two days, but probably won't be able to today or tomorrow.

 

[mel102]

My opks are finally getting darker hopefully il o very soon

 

[lesondemavie]

My temp was way up today at what I believe is 7 DPO, but I kinda tossed and turned the last few hours of sleep. DH and I haven't been perfect with the whole prevention thing, but it is highly unlikely that I'm pg this cycle.

Hey Les! FF is saying it will start March 6th but who knows. My cycles aren't very regular but I'm hoping the Pregnancy Prep will help. Did an opk today and there's a light line but I'm thinking its from that weird phantom hcg I had...usually it's stark white at this point. I'll keep testing though.

March 6th is right around the corner! Or at least that's what I'm telling myself. Hoping for AF around that same time.

I always have at least a light line on my opks. I was surprised to read that others get stark white strips before O time. Guess my base LH level is just a bit higher (or my tests are super sensitive)? For you, if it's not your norm must be that phantom hcg. Is it still showing up on the hpt?

I actually use the same opk's as you so it must be that people have different amounts of lh or hcg in their systems. I haven't taken anymore hpt's since my second blood test was confirmed a 6 so who knows!

 

[MrsRose168]

Well, I'm a bit annoyed bc my dr sent me a message saying that my ultrasound scan looked normal but she wants me to wait to ttc until I get my genetic and blood clot test results back. And the results won't be back until O time or afterwards. Ugh! I really hope they can expedite the results though I have a feeling they can't. I really hate the thought of having to wait another month

 

[babysteps007]

I'll be testing March 25th for my rainbow baby. Which means O still has to come. I'm only CD 6. Someone please help keep me sane!

 

[lesondemavie]

Baby - I'm hoping to test 3/25 for my rainbow too! I'm still waiting for AF over here, but I typically have short cycles. Hoping I get right back to my usual, but you never know I guess. FX for us both and have an awesome O time! Will it be here soon?

I read your story and it resonates with me. I had a D&C was on January 22nd, took me 20 days to get a negative pregnancy test, then I ovulated 6 days later, and AF came 7 days after that. We did try actively that cycle, but no luck. I think the eggy might've been fertilized, but the issue could be with my luteal phase. Just hoping this loss reset it all and we can start fresh. I'm on CD #6 so still a while to go until O, since I O late - around CD #16. I would love to be blessed with an earlier ovulation this time around, though. I hope we both get our late March BFPs! #NeedMyPotOfGold

 

[NicciNFamily]

Im CD1 now, the witch came today
but oh well fresh start ...

Cant wait for ovulation allready

 

[baseball_mom]

I'm on CD14 but I don't usually ovulate until CD 19. I will try and hold off testing until March 18th. I have an appt with my fertility specialist on the 8th to discuss other options since we went through 3 cycles of clomid and IUI with no success. Trying to stay positive.

 

[Jenntt]

I'll be testing on March 7th! Only 1 week to go! Fingers crossed for everyone! This iui cycle - metformin, femara, ovidral.

 

[Jenntt]

Oh and how could I forget the progesterone suppositories! Haha

Always good to know we're not alone . I take it this is your first cycle after your d&c cycle. I've read some women go right back to being regular and others have a few off cycles first. Guess time will tell for us both!

Counting from when I took cytotec...my bleeding was completely gone by cd14. My hpt was a squinter then, so my guess is that it was negative shortly after. Based on my usual 2-3 DPO anxiety spike and high temp on cd20, I'm guessing I O'd around cd18. My LP is usually just 10 days so I'm expecting AF by the end of this week. It's hard to say since I didn't really track anything regularly after the MMC, and my LP won't necessarily be the usual length. I'm hopeful though. I usually O a bit early on cd12, so if all goes well I'll be just a bit behind ya

 

[MiaMama]
