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

[L.E.]

So what do you think, MzSwizz? Should I buy another brand or stick with these? Wasn't happy with Wondfo, now I don't know if I should be happy with these. Obviously I know it is my body's 'fault' I haven't ovulated... I don't blame the OPKs for that, but I would like to know what is accurate.

 

[mzswizz]

well you can either do the dollar store or try the answer daily opks. I had used those too. But after that i decided to do the digi because i was always guessing with my tests.

 

[L.E.]

My problem is that all the tests have given me false positives or conflicting results. Last time I used the digi I had a couple bad tests with dye that ran and caused false smileys. Grrrr. Not sure. I really don't want to fork out any more money for opks, so I'm going to have to think about this one.

 

[staceyj83]

le look up babi opks if you want to go that way on amazon that is the kind i was using in july that gave me that in your face pos and the only kind that has ever done that i would say for now stay with the $ store 4 drop okps just because that is what you have been using and you will be able to see if there in a big diff in the lines

 

[L.E.]

Thanks. I still have 5 left (well probably about to be 4) so I was going to keep using those and maybe compare with a First Response or something... but we'll see. I really don't want to go out of the house tomorrow, which is why I did my shopping tonight. Managed to get my pinwheels, peanut butter pie, and lemon bars (still baking) made. Now to get my house cleaned tomorrow. I may go ahead and make the pumpkin pie if my dad didn't already buy one, and some chocolate chip cookies. Then Thanksgiving Day I'll just have mashed potatoes and gravy to make. Everything else is divvied up amongst my mom, brother, and sister. We'll have 10-12 people total. What about you? Do you have a big family thing or just your "little" family?

 

[L.E.]

MzSwizz, are you going to be popping on here or will you be MIA til Dec. 3rd??

 

[mzswizz]

L.E. i will most likely pop in while dh is at school but other than that, i will be MIA for the most part. Going to enjoy the time with DH while it lasts. Cant believe i leave tomorrow. Im over the top excited. I dont think i will be able to sleep that night which doesnt matter to me because i can make up for it on the 3 hr plane trip

 

[staceyj83]

i have a big family but not all of them are able to make it my sister called to tell me she isnt coming because her an my mom are fighting again and 2 of my brothers are out of town an cant make im use to having 15 to 20 people and this year its just going to be 7 of us it really makes me want to cry that everyone cant stop fighting to be together for the holidays i got a 23lb turkey just for everyone to call and say they are not coming will when they want me to do the big christmas dinner im not going to me and dh talked about it last night after my sister called we are going to his family for christmas his mom is going up to ga to see his sister and her kids that i dont mind because me and her butt heads ALOT i had to tell her until she can call the baby by her name she couldnt see her and she hasnt seen her in 2 months but anyways that is a longgg story there lmao

 

[mzswizz]

wow sounds like everybody is going to be busy with family tomorrow

AFM, im cd32 today and today is my last day here Tomorrow I will be in Connecticut celebrating Thanksgiving with my DH Im so excited. Well, ever since I've been on week 2 on the BCPs, I've noticed that I've been sick to my stomach (nauseous) I looked online and its normal because it says you will feel sick to your stomach for the first few months so I guess its my body adjusting to the BCPs. Still no bleeding and I dont have the pain in my ovaries like I use to hours after I take the BC so thats a good thing. I just got to put up a few things, clean up a little and call a few companies before I go on my trip tomorrow so today is going to be a relaxing day I suppose DH is already counting down the hours Can't wait for the trip and then when I get back...then its the start of doc appts again. I've noticed that I have gotten so much more accomplished within these past few weeks with these doctors than within the 2 years with the previous doctors So its a new beginning and a new step closer to our rainbow baby. I know this is our time now because God is blessing us with all the proper treatment etc needed to get our rainbow baby. Also, weird thing i remembered. I remember when I had a psychic reading..she said that I will need medical attention in order to have a baby and I will conceive a baby before DH's next birthday Now, im getting medical attention and DH's birthday is in September and with these BCPs, im hoping to be able to conceive in no time after i stop taking them. That is soooo weird.

 

[L.E.]

That is weird, MzSwizz! I'm not actually a believer in psychics, but it's interesting to say the least. Well I hope you have safe travels and enjoy your time with your DH. I know you will. When my DH and I were dating, it was long distance, so I know a little what it's like, and how nice it is to be back together.

Stacey, Sorry to hear your family can't get along, and especially that they're cutting out at the last minute! I'd say that's pretty rude. So how is Christmas going to go over if you and MIL aren't speaking much?

 

[staceyj83]

we go to dh aunts house funny thing is no one of them like her because of how she is that is like they are doing a big thing for thanksgiving and didnt ask her to come but asked us and my fil if i knew that everyone was going to cut out on me i would be going to their house Im pretty good about not letting her get to me but not calling alice by her name just because she doesnt like it just pushed me to far i have put up with alot from this woman from her asking dh why i had to sleep with an N as dd#1 is half black yes she used that word down to the day i had alice as she is holding her for the first asking dh if he called his ex wife to tell her about the baby knowing he hasnt talked to her in years then asked if he got a dna test while holding the baby and me right there because the ex told her i was a whore and was sleeping around like hello im right fing here so yea there is a little back story on her

 

[mzswizz]

L.E. trust me...i did the reading for fun because im just like you and dont believe in what psychics say neither but it was pretty coincidental.

stacey-sounds like our family . we usually dont want to invite his aunt because she is all in the "posh" "better than everybody" attitude.

 

[staceyj83]

Don't you just love people like that yaayyyy you get to see dh soon omg my house smells sooo good

 

[L.E.]

Stacey... wow your MIL sounds awesome....... She sounds evil. My MIL didn't like me at first, but I think she likes me alright now. Well she also wasn't fond of me 4 years ago when we moved from DH's city up here to my hometown. It's only 3 hours away and in the 6 yrs we lived there, MIL only visited us maybe 4 times, so it was stupid of her to be so upset about it. I think she's okay with it now, but I wouldn't really know. It's not like she's going to tell me. But yea when we got married 10 yrs ago and moved 4 yrs ago I was definitely the bad guy to her. Like they think I forced DH into all of it. His side also used to tell him things/secrets and tell him not to tell me. So, you know, that night, he'd tell me. Sheesh. We're married. It should be a given that he tells me everything. Ok done with my rant. lol

 

[staceyj83]

I dont think she will ever like me and im ok with that I just hate how she is always in dh ear about me then when he gets mad and tells her off and doesnt talk to her she says its because of me that I stop him lmao thank gosh I like my fil

 

[staceyj83]

Happy Thanksgiving

 

[L.E.]

Happy Thanksgiving, ladies! I take it MzSwizz made it to see DH and is happily reunited. We had a nice dinner starting at about 6 and our family left about 30 mins ago.

Cycle-wise there isn't much to report... no fertile cm yet and no positive opk, but tonight's test looks pretty good. I'll go ahead and post it. My temp was still low this morning so I'm really hoping I'm getting close. I'm curious to see if I'll O around CD25 or 26 like in January (positive opks started CD24 with almost positives on CD23). Today was CD22, so we'll see. I think I'll give it til the end of next week to O, then call the doc.

Anyway, I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.

 

[staceyj83]

I had a nice one and then me and dh did some black friday shopping to get the older girls the last thing on thier christmas so now we just have alice left to shop for yayyy

 

[L.E.]

I didn't do the Black Friday thing really this year... except I did do some shopping for DS online last night, and I have 2 good coupons to use today before 1 p.m. But now I'm going back to bed for a little. Didn't get to sleep til almost 5 a.m. The kids went to sleep about 12:30 a.m. so they should stay asleep a little while longer too.

 

[staceyj83]

Wow 5 I was out by 12 I havent stayed up that late in forever
