LE have you done anymore opks

Hiii ladies! Well today hasn't been the best of days so far. You know I don't have insurance, but go through a special local program here. Anyway, a while ago I was told that once I moved from just the DUB/PCOS onto actual fertility treatments that it wouldn't be covered. So about a week ago I called to double-check my appt date and time, and specifically asked them how much my ultrasound was going to cost me. Their answer: "Nothing."

So today I woke up earlier than usual despite not feeling well, woke DS up (who thankfully stayed here with my mom), and drove the 18 miles to the doctors. There I waited 20-30 mins to get to the ultrasound room. The tech told me to empty my bladder and undress from the waist down. So then I sat there 1/2 naked and COLD for about another 20 mins, when the tech finally came back to tell me the ultrasound is not covered and it would cost $160something dollars. So needless to say, I did not get the ultrasound done and am not very happy with them. I really like the doc, and I know beggars can't be choosers, but that was just plain terrible of them. Almost 2 hours wasted, gas, time, sleep, just to feel like a piece of poo sitting there partially undressed for nothing. Anyway... I thought I'd be in tears, but so far, none. I kind of want to put our little Christmas tree up today for a little bit of extra happiness today.

Sooo I came home and peed on 3 opks lol... and of course they are giving me 3 different results. I have a love/hate relationship with Wondfos. We really don't have the money right now (DS' bday party drained us), but I just may have to pick up a couple Dollar Tree tests. I think though that for now I'm going to assume the lightest test is correct and I'm still a ways off from my surge. Even the darkest test wouldn't be considered positive for me, so I guess they do give the same answer, but vary in darkness. I'll test again later today anyway.

oh no hun im so sorry they should of called to tell you that when someone show it wasnt covered

 

[L.E.]

Thanks. I'm not upset that it wasn't covered... I'm upset that they decided to tell me after I drove the 25 mins each way, waited 30 mins, then waited naked another 20 mins to tell me AFTER I specifically asked several days before the appt. If I knew in advance, I may have made arrangements to have the money. Even if I'd had the extra money on me, I wouldn't have gone through with it just based on the principle of it.

 

[staceyj83]

yea when i use to work in the doctors office we would re check everything again the day before a pt app and call them if something came up i dont see why all doctors offices dont do that saves a lot of bs sometimes

af showed her ugly face

 

[L.E.]

Sorry to hear it, astito.

 

[staceyj83]

Sorry she got you

 

[mzswizz]

l.e. so sorry you had to go through that at the docs. They can be a pain at times.

astito-boo for AF. sorry that witch showed her face.

AFM, im on cd26. I will be taking my BCP at 6:15am. I dont have a clue why im up right now. I have to wake up at 5am to book dh's ticket to come here for christmas break. Dont want to miss out on the ticket that we've seen and he ends up not being able to come. Well, i've noticed that with these BCPs I have alot of energy and my libido is through the roof Also, the downfall is that I get loads of creamy cm throughout the whole day with them. Normally, i get creamy cm but then eventually it dries up. But ever since I've started the pills, the cm just never goes away. So i have to stay with a panty liner just in case. Also, so far no spotting or bleeding while taking the pills so I guess thats a good sign. Next week sunday will start week 2 on BCPs which is a huge milestone because when i was on BCP previously after the m/c, i couldnt even get through week 1 without deciding to stop taking them. AF is due in 9 days so lets see if i still have a bleed or the BCP will stop AF from arriving. Im hoping it stops AF from arriving because i dont want to have another AF while im on vacation. Well, im pretty much done packing finally So now its just time to wait for the 22nd to come so I can see my wonderful DH and we enjoy our 2 weeks together Also, later on this morning, Im going to help a friend exercise so im feeling pretty good about this. I finally can be a physical trainer to somebody I just want to thank the Navy though because they did work me out so now im stronger and more toned and I finally got my abs back It took alot of hard work but it worked although my abs like to disappear when I eat etc But now I got to keep myself in shape because weight gain is a symptom and I just dont want to let myself go because im on BCP and try to get back into shape once I stop them. Better now when I have the energy than later. Well, let me wrap this up because if I keep talking, I will have enough to write a book

Sounds like all is going well for you, MzSwizz! I'm really glad it's working out well and that you actually feel good on the BC. The last ones I ever took made me feel pregnant for 3 months. It was ridiculous. That was the only brand to ever do it, so I kept the packaging to remember never to use that one! LOL... Although I don't plan on using any ever again anyway, you never know what will happen though.

Nothing new to report here. I'm already getting a little discouraged that O hasn't happened. I did just look up some pregnancy charts (on clomid) and there were people who got pregnant after Oing CD40+... I even saw a CD71 and I didn't finish going through them all. I figure I conceived DS around CD70, but without Clomid, so I guess anything is possible. My only issue is that there is no way we'll be able to keep up with the BDing for that long! Plus I'll have to get more OPKs. DH and I do not have high drives and I don't see how we'll keep it up any longer than 2 weeks. The earliest I O'd on my own was about CD26, so I guess I should give it til then to get discouraged, but that means another 2 weeks of timed BD . Twice a week is a "happy medium", so I think I'll be trying for that once we get tuckered out from the extra BDing.

 

[mzswizz]

yes everything is going well on my end and im happy about that. You never know. you might have a repeat cycle like you did when you conceived your DS but im hoping not and you are able to get an early bfp.

 

[L.E.]

Today's OPKs... still not positive.

 

[mzswizz]

looks like they are getting darker though

 

[staceyj83]

Looking dang good le

 

[L.E.]

Thanks, ladies. I'll be bummed til I get a blazing positive. We know my opks can be pretty dark and it mean absolutely nothing. At least my cm has been watery the past few days. It was creamy for the longest time, so I guess something is happening. I'm hoping that something will be O.

Fngrs.....I miss you!! Where are you??????

[mzswizz]

Hello ladies. Today is a lovely cool day and Im enjoying the weather as much as possible because I dont know when the next heat wave will hit. Today, im on cd27 and tomorrow ends the first week of BCPs I have only 5 MORE DAYS BEFORE I SEE DH Im over the moon happy right now about it. DH booked his tickets to come down here Dec. 20th-Jan. 6th. So he's going to be here for Xmas, my 23rd birthday, new years eve nand new years He said that for my birthday, he wanted to do a cruise to Hawaii I would love that but we shall see. Atleast now we got 5 months to vacation, enjoy and explore before we settle down and start back on the ttc wagon. I think this 6 month break is exactly what we need to save up more money, go vacation with just the two of us and get to have our "alone" time and enjoy being with each other. I think this is our mini vacation From what im getting...the BCPs will be out of my system in no time once i stop because the midwife told me to have sex every day with dh right starting from when i stop taking the BCPs because the best thing is to catch the 1st egg that comes after the BCPs. So im hoping it doesnt take long. Hoping that after these long 2 yrs of actively ttc, a 6 month break can solve all the problems and we get our LO finally. Its been a very long journey for us and im just ready to finally enjoy the blessing we've worked hard for. Now back to these BCPs...these little things cause ALOT of cm Dont know why..maybe because its preventing pregnancy so thats why I have no clue though. I should've ovulated by now though seeing that im on cd27 but then again you never know because of my crazy cycles. Hoping i can go back to the normal 28 day cycles I use to have but i guess thats wishful thinking Well, im all packed and ready to go to Connecticut. Finally got it done but atleast I dont have to worry about it now

 

[L.E.]

MzSwizz... so glad you get to see DH soon and then he'll be there to see you in no time!! A cruise sounds lovely. DH and I went on one when we were dating, but neither of us had very much "extra" money (we were both in college and 18 and 19 yrs old). Plus we went with his friends family and the boys were separate from the girls. That was fine then (we waited til our wedding night), but now of course we'd have our own room with out little family. We would do a Disney cruise now if we went lol.

Nothing too interesting to report here, but the day is young. My cervix is currently high, so we'll see if it stays that way. I couldn't reach high enough to really tell if it is soft, so I guess that is a good thing. Plus my temp was a little lower today, so we'll see.

 

[justhoping]
