Newbie needs some help!

[2mommiesTTC]

Hi everyone!!

My name is Lee and I am new to this site! I need some help with a little dilemma that I am having...

I found a wonderful donor and he is on board to help me an my partner bless us with a little one.

AF came on 5/15-D1
We did at home insemination on 5/21 D7
Took my OBK and had a faint line on D10 and they got darker all the way through D16

We had to inseminate a week earlier because donor was going out of town and we didn't want to not do anything with this cycle and donor was available.

My question is should i assume that this is not our cycle? I feel like i am going crazy because i have been having random symptoms that i can not explain nausea, lower back pain, some cramping, cold lick symptoms in the morning, mild headaches...am i going nuts!!!!!

Also so if I was early to inseminate if there a time that i should test...or should i wait til to see if AF shows up!


I would appreciate any help, tips, anything at all...

Okay so here it is...8 days later and no signs of AF I have taken pregnancy test all have been BFN's...I have had a lot of cm but not AF not sure what is going on with my body...I bought agnus castus and soy...I am pretty sure you can not take both together which I am fine with but I need some help some support something...I was hoping if it was a BFN since we did inseminate I believe too early that AF would show up & we could atleast have another try in June but the chances of that happening are very slim since if AF shows up I would more than likely ovulate something the first week in July and me and my partner will be away on vacation very far from our donor!...


sorry I just had to vent and let this out!!

So did you get a positive opk on cd 16? Or did you ever get a positive?

And I would recommend taking your temperature every morning at the same time after a full nights rest. Using www.fertilityfriend.com . They have lessons on there so you can understand what your looking for or just google it. This is a way to help confirm if you've ovulated or not.

And taking agnus cactus you have to take it for a few months (I believe 3+ months for it to work.) And it suppose to help regulate your hormones. But I've heared vitamin C can help induce your period, if taken in high doses. But i'm not sure of the doses.
