...No, relaxing will not get me pregnant...lucky CBFM girls!

I don't know if I'm ovulating 100% or not. I haven't been seen by a dr at all for any of this since my surgery in 2010. My monitor peaks, the test show positive...and YET NOTHING HAPPENS! DH's SA came back normal back then and he hasn't had another one since. I've used preseed, softcups, stood on my head, moonstone, fertility statue, I Even ATE TOFU! I've picked up more "yams" taking the prenatal everyday. The new fad is telling me I need to take birth control for a few months and then just randomly stop it....yeah I'm sure that works for people who aren't allergic to it! haha

And Mrs B I've said it but just once more I REALLY am Happy for you! You're different than my facebook friends.
 
Maybe, your gear up but dont ov? I'm not a doctor so cannot comment but hopefully you can find one that helps you. Maybe you just need a little nudge from something like Clomid?

Thank you so much :)
 
Have you ever charted lekker? Or gotten your progesterone checked? Are your cycles regular? I've done everything under the sun too hun including metformin and clomid, nothing so far :nope:
 
So I can get clomid from a OBGYN instead of a fertility specialist? I am hoping I MIGHT have time before I move to cali to get started but I'm not going to hold my breath. The military drs are kinda slow on doing ANYTHING lol
 
Yeah I've just taken the last 2 months off of charting. No they've never checked my progesterone or anything like that as far as I know.
 
yeah it's usually the OBGYN that prescribes the clomid. If clomid doesn't work then you usually get referred to a FS.
 
I don't get why I've never been tried on that stuff before! o_O They have NEVER tested me for anything like that at all they just send me to the FS.
 
Have you specifically asked them for it? Maybe you could take that approach? x
 
No I'm going to call this OBGYN tomorrow here in NY and see if I can get an appt before I leave. Here's to hoping they are fall for my plan and go ahead and prescribe me medication. HAHAHA See if I can possibly cheat the system.
 
Mrs. B- Absolutely NO ONE is disheartened or upset about your awesome announcement!!!!! I mean, how selfish would that be??? We are all thrilled for you.

Lekker-Your situation sounds like mine. DH's sperm is fine, always got + OPK's, my monitor peaked, my temps rise. All signs say ovulation... I have regular 30 day periods with a healthy 14 day luteal phase. I called my OB out of frustration...first step was 21 day progesterone test. Well, I'm ovulating, but not well enough, and she immediately prescribed the clomid. My progesterone was 18.92 a few days ago, now after being on the clomid for a cycle. If AF doesn't show on the 3rd or 4th, I'll test on the 5th. I highly recommend you get some really basic bloodwork done. How's your thyroid levels? That can muck stuff up too.
 
Good luck, Lekker. Take the bull by the balls!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!
 
Last dr did say my thyroid was fine because Heidi Murkoff told me to have that checked and I did ask him about that in 2010.
 
No doubt I wasn't meaning to overlook your post. I was feeling sorry for myself and trolling the positive test page, saw Mrs B's pic, and popped over to post/fuss at her. And I didn't even read your post like the bad person that I am. I honestly don't know what to say to make you feel better as I don't even know what clomid does as I've never been on it. I'm very sorry things hurt like they do. From my experience my AF is awful and I don't get any options to make the pain go away. The only thing I know is about the heating pad and alot of HOT baths. I wish I could relate to you on the clomid thing. But I can't. I sincerely apologize for being insensitive and not posting to you last night.

Relax gdane...you should have noticed that my post was before hers and I actually congratulated her on her journal. Really?!?!

Your post was directly after lekkers congrats on mrsb's bfp. I'm not that stupid to not realize that mrsb posted after you but thank you for thinking so.
so.

You posted about your crappy day.
Someone said congrats to MrsB about her BFP
You said whatever...

How else is one to take that?

Wow...really?!?!? First it had to be about MrsB, now it has to be about Lekker. Who is it going to be next time, gdane? Perhaps, instead of jumping to conclusions and trying to make me look like a bitch, you could have just asked me "how else is one to take that." I never said you were stupid, but that must be another one of your assumptions. Oh, and once again, you're still wrong. That comment wasn't directed to Lekker either, but I guess everyone else can be typing at the same time, or miss posts by other people; but not me...right? So allow me to clear it up for you, so you can stop jumping to conclusions.
The comment wasn't directed towards anyone. It's just a saying. I was having a rough time, and "whatever" just sums it up. I was tired and fed up and worrying, and blah, blah, blah; so at the end of the day, I just said "whatever" to it all, to just put it all away from me and forget about it. If you knew me, you would know that I say that all time when I'm at a breaking point, but you don't so it's really not fair for you to judge me like that. If you feel I offend you or someone else, the more appropriate thing to do would be to just ask me about it...don't you think? Instead of trying to show me in a negative light.
I joined this group because more than anything I thought people would be able to relate to me and understand what I'm going through as you all are going through it. I thought people would understand when I'm having a bad day because this is wearing on me, and that people would understand when I needed to vent or just let off some steam. I didn't join this group to be judged and for people to make assumptions about me.
I don't need validation. I know you are all there and read the posts, and I know that you all get busy with everything else and don't stay on here 24/7. I had only posted "whatever" a little bit after my first post and I didn't go back and read everything in between because I wasn't expecting anyone to post anything at that time anyway, and therefore didn't even know that anyone else had.
And to be honest, I really don't feel like I should have to put this big explanation up here in regards to my post, to clear up all of the misunderstandings you caused.

Lekker, you don't have anything to be sorry for and gdane was wrong. My comment was not directed to you or anyone else. I didn't even know you had posted anything, or that anyone had posted anything since my previous post.

Wook, thanks again. The comment was not directed towards anyone, just a way for me to vent. I say it all the time.

With that, I'm finished. I enjoyed the support and discussion from most of you, but this is not why I joined a support group. I hope you all get your bfps and enjoy being a mommy some day. Take care.
 
Congrats Mrs B !!

Me - cd18 of 3rd cycle using cbfm, still showing low fertility which is normal for me as i have long cycles.
 
Ok wonder if any ladies are still reading/? Im goingto work ongetting a journal tonight, but at work and has to tell ya, I have no idea if I ovulated this month due to be. sick earlier in the month took antibiotics etc.now Im having what I call weird symptoms for me anyway unless its hormones, I hads. harp shooting tata pain a few times today and tummyhas been a little weird,but that could be anything.. I think im on day 22 andthe last two days I've been emotional easily,usually pmsim kinda a meanie but not thistime im nice but sensitive which I can't complain about but its weird lol.. I didn't even think I od this month unless it was before I was sick, or very recent, also a couple days ihave my pink tinge on the paper once when wiping and not seen it since, don't know maybe its lateovulation?? Confused lol and I neversymptom spot..any suggestions? Prob not sincei have no clue when or if I od
 
Sounds very interesting Pook! Have you tested just to make sure? When was the spotting?
 
Not yet mrs.b cause ireally doubt it lol but im not due for af til next week so I always wait it out, I had the spotting 2 days ago andhave had a 31 day cycle the last few cycles, I always get spotting but it usually continues til af and it wasonly there once wheni wiped that day and that was it, but why do I even think it could be it I really doubt it its just weird for me to be like this lol..its probably jst nothing, its weird cause not even sure if I ovulated this time
