positive opk @ 8dpo...HELP!!!

[L.E.]

She'll let you have a scan every 3 weeks or just an appt every 3 weeks? Are you considered high risk? My friend got to have a scan every couple weeks but she's high risk, so that's why I was wondering. With DS I had my 5w5d to get a due date and then my 20 week one, and another at 30 weeks because they couldn't get a good view of DS' heart at 20 weeks.

L.E. they say you can't "read" those lines. I agree with that statement somewhat. I have found that when the surge is juuust starting to go up the lines are very light. On a regular opk, a light line means flat out no, but with that digi...boy, I tell you I question how it reads it as positive sometimes. So I am inclined to believe then and also love them to death. I say let the celebration begin! what could be better than a lovely egg popping out as a anniversary gift?!

I also hope it isn't a CBE joke. As long as you are holding it in the urine for only the 15 seconds then it's reading fine. Also maybe if you have been drinking liquids, to your hearts content then that could be another reason it's so faint.

Momma- That combo sounds like a winner.

stacey- can't wait until you get you next scan and see that lovely heartbeat. And best of all hear it! (sighs) That's the best sound ever. If I could have recorded that sound from my kids i would have. I do have my 12 week scan on dvd though, and it has the sound of Masyn's heartbeat on it.

I think if I get my bfp, I am going to make sure I am placed in the high risk category. I was with DD. I think I would feel more comfortable with more appt's and more scans. I may even rest easier. With my preterm labor history alone, I think they would have no choice. So if the doctor doesn't agree to place me as high risk then, I will find another Dr.

 

[L.E.]

Well CBE is a meanie! 4 hr hold with decreased fluids = negative! I knew not to trust it with the running dye and light line! Booooo! I tried 1 from my old pack and 1 from the new pack with new holder.

 

[staceyj83]

Ill get a scan every time I go in till 12 weeks then ill just have an app every 3 weeks right now they have me at high risk because of the spotting then ill get a scan at 19 weeks to find out the sex then one at 25 weeks then one at 32 weeks then my last one will be at 37 weeks to check how big the baby is I just wont get scan pics everytime I have one they do the scans right in office then ill have 2 at L&D alice's cored was around her neck so thanks to so many scan they were ready for it even tho I did over half of my labor at home I knew to keep checking her heart and thank god we never had her heart rate go down and I have a doppler to

Was the line the same color as the earlier one? Well no wonder they were on clearance! Maybe you should have saved your pee and tested with that again?

 

[FngrsCrossed]

Stacey- You were right about your Dr. being so awesome. A scan every 3 weeks is a good thing.
I want a doppler so bad...next baby I am getting one. If I thought I could buy and we could afford our own ultrasound machine I would do it. I am also going to temp for a while after a bfp, well that's if I ever get one...

Well I think the dye running caused part of the line to be dark enough to register positive. I thought it was fishy when it was soooo light when it dried. I just took another and it is negative. I will say the line may be ever so slightly darker than yesterday but still very light. Second time CBE has given me a false smiley. So not impressed with them! I didn't really have an increased drive either or super-fertile cm (except for a little yesterday), so yea. My body is a prankster and CBE is in cahoots! I'd laugh, but it's not that funny. Well after this crazy journey I've been on it's laugh or cry, so I might as well laugh.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

L.E. I agree it isn't funny at all. And it wasn't very nice of CBE to do that.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

Morning Ladies!!! hope all of you are doing well...Any updates?

My temps was 97.88 this morning and I am cramping...DH and his evil alarm woke me up early. As soon as I opened my eyes, I had to pee so bad I couldn't fall back to sleep. So needless to say, I temped and got out of bed. Then the coffee maker started calling my name, so I got myself ready to start the day. I hate my Dh's rude alarm. And it's like he lays there and it's screaming...he barely hears it but it wakes me out of a very good sleep.

Stacey- I see you have spotting today and a temp dip. Praying all is well though.

Momma- I am waiting to stalk your chart

L.E. - waiting to stalk yours too

 

[mommapowers32]

Ahhhh my phone sucks !!! I typed out this long reply and it deleted it when o tried to opload my pic Greer....


Stacey. You have a good Dr I'm so glad they are taking good care of u. I was on bedrest with ds at 20 weeks due to contractions


LE. That stinks, I would be calling the manufacturer ASAP bc that is not cool I've gotten false bfp hpt and digi that didn't work at all and they sent me new test.


Fngrs. Idk what is going on with my body. Last month temp spike two days after bfp opk and this month I got my bfp opk two days after my temp.spike ... Hmmm

[mommapowers32]

It does look a little lighter than the control line hmm

But darker than yesterday

 

[staceyj83]

I have lost all hope bleeding like this for so many days cant be a good thing woke up with my head killing me and I dont feel pregnant all so its in gods hands I cant keep being upset and sad when I have 2 girls to care for

 

[L.E.]

Stacey, Sorry to hear the spotting is back. At least your doc appt is soon and you should have more answers and hopefully it is good news.

Momma, that still looks "almost" but if it goes lighter it may be your positive (and yesterday).

Fngrs, yay for cross-hairs and a nice, high temp!

Ok ladies, don't judge, but I am a late-riser. Usually 10, 11 or 12 depending on when DS wakes up, but I temp at 9. Anyway, last night I finally fell asleep around 2 something but it started storming really bad and I woke up at 5:30 to go outside and bring my moving boxes and tables in so they didn't get wet. Went to the bathroom and went back to bed. Checked my bbt for kicks (I'd been outside and all that) and it was 97.11... woke up at 9:20 and temped it was 97.26. Since I went right back to sleep, I temped again for fun when I woke up a little before 11 and it was 97.7. My temp doesn't ever follow the rules. I think I was partly uncovered at 9 and fully covered at 11, but I don't know for sure. I was out good after 5:30 .

Soooo anyway. I know I've said it before, but once these opks are gone I'm going to try not to buy any for a while. Hey I lasted a couple weeks last time. I guess I'll still chart because it would feel like a waste if I didn't. According to my chart, I'm 15 dpo. Tell me this: How am I supposed to TTC when my body lies, my opks lie, and my temps lie??? Maybe I should stop all the stuff til we move and maybe we'll get a surprise bfp. Also when we get the money from someone buying our place, I may go ahead and get my pap and do the S/A so I can start Clomid after the move.

Babbling today... So IF IF IF my chart was correct, and I was 15 dpo, that would be really weird. I know I don't have a lot to compare it to, but my 2 normal cycles in Jan and Feb (well the chemical isn't normal), I started spotting on day 12 or 13 with AF following the next day at 13 or 14, so a 12 or 13 day LP. Even if I started spotting today with AF tomorrow, that makes a 15 day LP, but I guess weirder things have happened. So far there is no sign of spotting.

I say it's a bfp opk too! It may look as though the control line is darker because you may have caught your surge going up.

Awe Stacey, I hope this gets better really soon and the spotting goes away. I have seen some charts with a lot of spotting, more than you as a matter of fact, and the pregnancy went on to full term. Are you resting? I would call the Dr. again and see if they can give something to stop the spotting. Maybe even a HCG shot. I read that HCG shot is used to preserve a pregnancy.

OK. SOOOO this may be one of those moments that I MAAAYY have chatted it up with myself and I DID start smiling like an idiot, BUT this isn't going to be hilarious....I don't think.

Scenario:
1) So what if 3-4dpo are fluke temps and may have been even lower, later when you woke up, and you are actually 10dpo today?

2) What if that smiley was some sort of indication that you may be preggers with a late implanter? I mean your temp has gone back up and AF is absentee...

3) What if you have a bean that is just a late implanter, PERIOD. and that temp spike this morning is actually going to continue to go up?

OK...so now I will take the she must be nuts comments gracefully. Fire away? Yea, I am ready...FIRE AWAY!!!!!!
you ladies--> me-->

Thanks for having a chat with yourself about it... I appreciate it!! Really, I do!

1. I don't think that is likely because Thurs the 19th (3 dpo) was this: 97.25 at 7:25 a.m. and 97.43 at 11:20 a.m. after quick phone call.... 97.25 adjusted for 9 a.m. is 97.57... So my temp was higher when I woke up later. My adjusted temps for 3 and 4 dpo would be 97.57 and 97.42... however I don't think my body follows the rules of .2 degrees every hour. It does what it wants.

2. I'd love it if the smiley were an indicator or pregnancy but I know it wasn't or I'd be getting smilies still. That was just a bad bad bad test. :growl mad:

3. I suppose it is a possibility but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[L.E.]

I also don't see how I could be preggers with these temps and a BFN on FRER at 12 dpo.

yea i just did a hpt and opk just for hahas i did take a pic at the 2 min mark and i called th doctors about the spotting she asked how much and if i was having to wear a pad or liner i told no its just been in the morning she said it could just be normal spotting that 1 in 3 pregnancy have spotting i told i know all of that she said to just keep my app and if bleeding becomesto where i use more then one pad an hour or i start to have really bad pain to call but to try and take it easy i like my doctor and all but i felt like going off on her to me they should of had me back for a 2nd hcg test
