This cycle feels so much differnt. I think I am getting ready to ovualte soon. Its amazing how clear the signs are when your body is doing what it should. Fingers crossed the clomid and provera have me back to normal.

Mine always started 24-48 hours before O, pretty much dead on when I'd be getting my pos OPK So I'd suggest getting to it the next two, three nights if you can x

 

[jme84]

I got my first positive opk today yea! so excited took15 months from stoping depo. My temp also jumped up bunch of degrees.

 

[jess1983]

uuugghh this cycle was only 23 days

 

[sherylb]

That is pretty short. How long is normal for you?

 

[jess1983]

well last month it was every two weeks lol so I should be happy. I guess I am just impatient, and really wanted something somewhat normal. I am happy that it was longer but I was bummed at the same time. I was like clockwork before depo every 28 days and since AF came back so fast I was hoping this month would just be normal ykwim

 

[sherylb]

It may encourage you to know my cycle grew a day every cycle consistently while I was charting.

 

[jess1983]

That does encourage me. I don't really want to temp but I just got a bunch of opk's in the mail to see if I am ovulating. I am pretty excited because I have baby fever lol. BTW congrats on finding out that you are having a girl they are really so much fun. I am about to put my 5 year old in cheerleading.

 

[sherylb]

I did go through several cycles of just tracking af before I temped.

Exactly what I went through too My af started as soon as I was due for my shot, then every two flipping weeks af was coming.. but gradually it started getting longer! My pre Depo cycle was 28 days, I managed to get back to 26, then 27 and then my LP adjusted itself to 12 It'll happen.. not nearly as fast as we'd like, but ttc will be over before you know it! x

How long did it take you to get your BFP? It is really comforting sometimes just to get on here to talk to people who have gone through the same thing. It will be nice to get back to normal.

It took me 9 months, ironically lol! I had a couple chemicals before this sticky one, but definitely no hard evidence that it was Depo related. My first chemical was 5 months post Depo I'm pretty sure. So hopefully you're back to normal as quickly as I was considering your situation sounds so similar x

What was your LP before it adjusted itself to 12? How long did it take to get back to normal? Mine was 10 days and then last month it was 11 days. I'm hoping that if I don't get my BFP this month that it goes up to 12 days.

Wow, that is SO weird! Mine was 10 when I had regulated... then went to 11 and a chemical then bumped it to 12 and I stayed at 12! My blessing in disguise Mine was progressing pretty much each cycle.. my LP was 12 as of March, one cycle was a day longer, but my LP stayed put! Hopefully this means you're almost there!! x

Thank you so much Mommy2be20. That makes me feel a lot better. I hope I'm almost there too, this is taking forever and I'm getting very impatient and frustrated lol.

You're more than welcome I also just noticed you're a Torontonian! I'm only a couple hours away, small town of Stratford (where Justin Bieber is from )

I went and saw doctor again yesterday and he explained to me my dh sa results to me he has around 28 million good sperm which is about half. He has to do the test again and then possibly go to a urologist. He also drew my blood to check progesterone levels they are also low at 9.6(normal is 13-14) so I probably still did not ovulate this month. Get to stay on provera and clomid and see what next month brings. I am having thoughts of giving up on having kids but the doctor is optimistic. He even still said to take a pt about cycle day 25 and hopefully we are pregnant. I really wish I never would have taken depo.

Oh sweetie, don't give up! I promise it'll happen... it's such a bumpy and windy road, but one day (hopefully very soon) it'll be so worth it and you'll be glad you kept pushing! My chances were so so low, not only from Depo, but only having one tube in who knew what condition! I definitely went through so many thoughts of "is it worth it?" "do I really want kids this bad?" "maybe I'm not meant to be a mommy", it's such an emotional rollercoaster ttc, especially after Depo and/or losses But that BFP takes all that crap away, the ttc part doesn't matter anymore! Keep your chin up, you can do this x
