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

[L.E.]

The doc started me at the lowest dose- 50 mg.

L.E. Hoping you get your bfp soon and ovulate. Im hoping the PCOS gets fixed in the months I take the BCP and hopefully to finally get a regular cycle.

Stacey-Yes dh and i, we are both happy so now we got to see.

 

[staceyj83]

Le not bad

That is great

 

[L.E.]

MzSwizz... I surely don't want to rain on your parade, but I wanted to say that BC never "fixed" anything for me. It gave me a fake regular cycle like it's supposed to and helped me be less anemic, but it never did 1 thing to actually fix my PCOS. If anything, it hurt it. I know not everything works the same way for everyone, but for me, it was just a bandaid.

I hope I didn't upset you. I just want you to be prepared in case birth control doesn't fix you either.

 

[mzswizz]

L.E. thanks for your advice. Trust me, it didnt hurt me at all. I am accepting all advice especially with someone with experience with PCOS and birth control etc I was thinking that BCP will just be a band aid etc but I guess I just have to wait and see. If anything..if I dont see any results..I will stop the BCP and go back and see what are other options for me.

AFM, im on cd19 and im exhausted. Working on a few hours of sleep here. Im excited because in exactly 2 weeks..im going to be on a plane arriving in Connecticut a hour from now I will start the birth control Sunday morning and by the time I see DH, i will be almost 2 weeks into the BCP so lets see how it effects me on a daily basis. Hoping to not see AF during trip so lets keep our FXed for that. Just hoping BCP doesnt jump start a 1-2 spotting, period. Florida is having its cool temperature time now and DH says it has started snowing Now we get to enjoy snow together so i cant wait. I got to change a few of my outfits though since its going to be snowing when I get there. I have been procrastinating on the packing but I know it will get done eventually

 

[L.E.]

Quick Clomid update.... I think I finally found the "crazy woman" side effects of the Clomid last night... Cried for 1.5 hours. I had reason to be a little upset, but I was almost hysterically crying where I normally wouldn't do that. Good thing DS and DH were asleep. I'm better today though I'm really tired after falling asleep so late and getting up earlier than usual, plus I guess emotionally drained. We went to a science learning center today for about 4 hours. DS got a nosebleed on a simulator ride and when we got home and I found out that DS accidentally threw away my diamond stud earrings a few days ago. Soooo not the best of days, but I didn't flip out, so that's good. Thankfully, my studs were really small and I got them for super-cheap with a good sale, and coupon. It was just a little discouraging because those were my only "real" earrings. I guess that wasn't so quick lol.

 

[staceyj83]

Oh no I had hope you wouldnt get them

 

[L.E.]

Well I'm hoping it was a fluke. If not, I really hope no one sets me off over the next couple days lol... though I've read some people having symptoms from the Clomid the entire cycle. I sure hope that's not the case, especially since I'll be dealing with a lot of family this weekend.

 

[staceyj83]

Yea my friend was like that i felt so bad for her

Hi ladies!
Im new to BnB! This is my 2nd month TTC and I came upon this thread and absolutely fell in love with you all.

I just want to say that I am blowing mad Baby on each and everyone of you and hope that we all get our this month!!

I am somewhere between 6-8DPO so I am going to test in the morning and hope for the BFP!! Test today (cuz im a POAS addict) and it was negative on the dollar store brand, but I bought a ton of them so I could test everyday.

Prays and Dust to you all!! Thank you for putting all your experiences, thoughts, up and downs out there!! It is SO inspiring.

XOXO,
Sharayah

Hiiiiiii Sharayah! Thanks so much for stalking us and for the baby dust! We surely could use it! I hope you get your bfp soon with a sticky bean. Let us know how it goes. I'm hoping someday soon we all get to share pics of our new babies!

 

[praying4abb]

Yes, that would be amazing! Then you can show them how hard we all tried to get them when they're older LOL

Testing again in the morning, its probably still too early but I stress myself less if I dont limit my POAS addiction.

Let you know tomorrow!! GL Ladies!

 

[mzswizz]

Any news praying?


AFM, im on cd22 and i took my first BCP at 6:15am. So far, no side effects. The last time i took the 1st one, i felt sick to my stomach and exhausted etc but with this one..i feel sooo good. I have lots of energy, not sick to my stomach etc so thats good. 11 more days and im out of here Cant wait!!! So everything is going good and I seriously got to pack

 

[astito]

12 dpo, bfn on dollar store tests

 

[mzswizz]

you're not out until AF shows

 

[praying4abb]

i think im 8 or 9DPO today, BFN with New choice $ store test this morning. Im not freaking out just yet.

I have have a question for the ladies living with their SO...during the TTC process do you feel like because each month you are trying so hard to be pregnant you kinda feel like you therefore act like you. Hopefully I am explaining this right. I really feel pregnant this cycle but I know most of us have been there and its been a BFN. I just dont feel good, lots of classic symptoms but I know I pay attention so much more closely than before I was TTC. I dont want my SO to think that I am exaggerating or making symptoms up in the horrible event that I end up with a BFN this cycle. What do you all do, how does your SO handle your nauseousness/headaches/symptoms/etc each month without the BFP at the end?!

 

[L.E.]

Well I'm not regular at all and don't ovulate, so I rarely speculate pregnancy symptoms anymore. When I used to have weird feelings, I would just take a few hpts til I was convinced otherwise. Since I started temping in April, there has been a lot less guessing...though I have had a few things (sickness, Provera) affect my temps rough to mimic ovulation, but I no longer obsess about it. Now if I manage to ovulate this month we'll see how relaxed I am lol

 

[L.E.]

Ok well I thought I would start with the OPK pics lol.... So here are today's from about an hour ago taken at about 10 mins... Definitely negative, but decent. Remember that my wondfo's are super-dark when they're positive, so I can't get too excited about "decent" lines.

My mid-cycle ultrasound is in 2 days. I'm hoping I have some follicles growing. If not, I'll be heartbroken.
