Official Depo Thread

[midnightrose8]

So I'm disapointed today...AF showed up about a week early and in full force. I've been cramping like crazy. Been in a totally bad mood today. I'm hoping this lets up soon. I'm happy AF is getting back to normal but this cramping and bachache I could do without.

That's weird. Did you even O last month?

 

[midnightrose8]

I'm not sure, OPK were getting darker. I can't say I saw something I'd consider a positive. I'm using the OPK wondfo I bought a 100 for 20 dollars. There cheap so I'm hoping there acurate. Is anyone else using the cheap OPK?

 

[sherylb]

I am. Most days it got lighter as time passed. The day I think it was positive it got a little darker as a few minutes passed.

I wouldn't stress over negative OPKs. They can be wrong. I am so confused about my cycle right now it isn't funny. My chart looked like I Oed last Friday but my temps have gone done the past 2 days.

Ok, I'm joining this thread

Time on depo: I think 2 years
End date: October 2010 (last shot)
Time it took AF to come back: Not yet
Time it took to regulate: N/a
bfp: never

My husband and I just started TTC this month. My Depo shot was due 1/13 and we did not get it. Now, I KNOW this is VERY unlikely, but my body is acting like it O'd on the 25th! I am trying not to get my hopes up as I know how unlikely it really is. I have not had a period in god knows how long - I was on nuva ring for a while, then loestrin 24fe which stopped my periods, then the depo, so it's probably been 3 years since I've had a period. Do you ladies know - if I *did* ovulate, would my uterus even be in any sort of shape to implant? I don't know if I'd have any lining, or way too much, or what at this point.

Take a look at my chart if you have a second:
Ack ok I'm having a hard time getting my chart to show up, any help?
On the 25th I had a little pain/crampy feelings in my lower left abdomen as well as back pain. Then my temp raised yesterday and stayed the same this AM.

Once I figure out how to get my chart on my FF page I'll post the link.

Ok I figured it out, my chart is here: https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/33294e

 

[sherylb]

I think that looks promising that you may have O-ed. I am going to send you a message.

Thanks Sheryl, got the msg I've lurked for a bit but did just join today!

 

[sherylb]

I am sure you will be able to do everything in no time. I really am glad I joined this site last month.

 

[mauiaddict]

Like you said I have to post 5 first... so here's another
I've already learned a lot by just reading while lurking! I'm glad I really did start charting (although obv missed a few days in the beginning) bc I figured no way anything would be going on in my body yet. But then I realized I would never know if I didn't pay attention, and if I ever need to go to the MD at least I'll be armed with info! I've got a preconception checkup on Feb 8... if I did O on Jan 25 that would be exactly the end of the 2WW! So I guess I'll test Sun/Mon before that appt Now just hoping if I did O that the did what it's supposed to and that my uterine lining is up to snuff

I think you ovulated too which is fab, hopefully you'll get pregnant right away.

But I just want to warn you, I ovulated the first cycle too (I think) and may even have done the second, then it all went to hell.

Of course you may well not have the same issues but if you do skip it a few months afterwards, don't panic like I did it's completely normal.

Hopefully though it wont be an issue because you'll get your BFP this cycle
