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

[VivianJean]

Thx ladies.

 

[mzswizz]

Welcome Vivian! Just like L.E. says we are the queens of weird cycles. So feel free to ask questions.

 

[L.E.]

In case anyone was looking at my chart, I started temping 3-4 hours earlier than normal due to a new babysitting gig. I usually warm up my bbt in my mouth for about 20 seconds and today I woke up a little late so maybe only got 10 seconds. I don't know if that is why my temp is so low today, but that could be a factor. I'm not sure if my temps going down were purely from the time difference or not. I have taken my temp when I woke up briefly at 7 and then again when I got up at 10 and they've matched or been really close. It's so hard to say. I took a Dollar Tree OPK a few mins ago and it's definitely negative. With the low temp today and a tiny bit of spotting since last night, I was hoping for O today. I'm still going to try to BD anyway just in case. Hope you ladies are doing well.

L.E. we are both in the same boat. Im on cd44 and I have yet to ov still. my gynecologist appt is next Wednesday thank goodness. I started back working also. I know on sunday I will have to wake up 3 hours before my normal temp time but we shall see how it goes. Usually, I use a temp adjuster but this cycle...I kinda just use the temps I got with the thermometer and called it a day.

Hello ladies I hope you ladies ovulate soon long cycles are horrible I have very long cycles my last one was 113 days and the one befor that was something like 80+days, this cycle I've ovulated on cd40 with soy Isoflavones & b complex x

Have you thought about trying soy? x

 

[mzswizz]

Well I actually never thought about it. My cycles are always 35+ days. Sometimes I even get 2 AFs in a month But usually I have been getting an AF once a month so I was thinking that my body is starting to work itself out. The only thing I have been taking is prenatal vitamins. I go to my gynecologist next Wednesday to see what they can do to help me ovulate because they have diagnosed me with PCOS.

 

[staceyj83]

Geeez sounds like all our bodies have gone mad I was 2 weeks late for af no need to test as we have yet to dtd after having nicholas start af had her for 6 days then spotting till cd 14 started having o pains on cd16 and a week later I'm still having them along with tons of ewcm went to the doctors about it she said it could be from the weight loss or just having him if it doesn't fix its self by the time he is a year old she will run some test I was hoping having alice then with how easy and fast we got a bfp with nicholas that it had fixed my body I guess not :-/

 

[L.E.]

Sounds like we all have crazy bodies. Good to see you, Stacey!

Missbx, I tried soy on CD88 of a long cycle and also at the beginning of one cycle. Neither helped me O. I got to try Clomid once and I did O, but it wasn't until CD40ish, with unclear fertility signs, and I did not get pregnant. I'm hoping to try again this spring or sooner depending on finances. I may give the soy a shot again if this cycle is a bust and I have to use Provera like usual to restart me.

 

[mzswizz]

Stacey-wow yes you would think that your body would get back into its normal routine seeing how you got pregnant with Nicholas but I guess our body does its own thing on its own time.

L.E. Maybe I should change this thread to.....join the crazy bodies ttc group

AFM, today is cd45. No ov has occurred yet. My temp dropped lower than yesterday's temp but my temp's have been doing that and nothing happens so im not really counting on this time to be any different. Next Saturday is DH's birthday so im trying to save up some money so I can get him a cake and his bday gift is a video game but I pay for that on the 17th because that's when it comes out. Im moving along in school work. I have 3 modules after this current module and then I will be finished. My goal is almost complete. Like I said, Im trying to complete this program in a month. I think I can do it because Sept. 29th will make it a month and I may be done before that so fingers crossed. My friend suppose to be moving up here on the 28th of September so im just preparing for that. Also, 2 members from DH's squadron wants to come together and hang out because we are close in age and have a lot in common which I think is a good idea. The only difference is they have children and we don't but I know in due time it will happen. I feel that God is waiting until I finish school and start the new job before he gives us our blessing which I don't mind because that will help us save up money also. Im just hoping to get a bfp before this year is up. I go back to work tomorrow even though I am dreading it. I will be working Friday-Monday then Wednesday and then Friday. Also, I have to go to work from 5am-1:30pm on Sunday I don't know how im going to manage that. But I believe I will get through it. On the 27th...my parents celebrated their 36th year anniversary Pic of my parents below....I know I look exactly like my dad

AFM, today marks cd1. 47 day cycle with no ovulation. Glad that my doc appt. is in 3 days so we can start from the beginning and see what happens. Last night, DH and I went to a party at the house from one of his friend's from the squadron. We had a blast and I made 2 new friends who are also military wives. So they helped out a lot and I was able to feed my baby holding addiction because she has a 6 month old daughter and I totally fell in love. DH fell in love too and I cant wait for us to have a LO. Well that's it for now.

 

[staceyj83]

I was hoping but nope good thing I'm use to it I hope your app goes willl

 

[mzswizz]

Thanks Stacey. I hope your body sort itself out rather sooner than later.

AFM, im on cd3 today. The bleeding is VERY heavy with lots of clots/lining whatever it is Im glad that tomorrow is my doc appt. so atleast im early in my cycle so they can start me with things asap We are kind of on a schedule because DH has to go on detachments in October, December, and January and then deployment in March So as you can tell we have a short time frame so im hoping that we can conceive BEFORE he goes away on deployment. Im almost done with school just have 2 modules to go So im super focused. Well hopefully this year will end with a bfp, a certification, and a career in the medical field

 

[mzswizz]

I will start using clomid in 2 weeks

 

[L.E.]

I'll try to post more later, but I just saw I had a message from Fngrs from Aug. 24th. All is well and she's having a girl!!!

 

[mzswizz]

Yay for fngrs!!! Congrats to her! How are you ladies doing?

AFM, im cd9 today and the bleeding is still here. DH's birthday was Saturday and we had a blast. Even though, we were hung over the following day and had to go to work, we still had fun. It was nothing but music, food, drinks, and close people. So it was a good time. I had my u/s appt. today @ 3pm which I had to reschedule due to me not being able to make it on time because I got off work @ 3pm. So its been rescheduled for Thursday @ 3pm. And im off that day so that's good. Cant believe that my Clomid appt. is next week Time is really flying by so that's good. I've been a little busy bee. I've been working and taking care of school so hopefully I will be done soon which if im as determined as I am..I will be. Im ready to start my career now with higher pay and better benefits So we shall see. That's all for now.

 

[mzswizz]

my first tattoo!!! Got it done today

 

[mzswizz]

AFM, i got prescribed Clomid! I start it on my next cycle Also, found out that I dont have PCOS but i do have anovulatory cycles because he said that my progesterone levels are low. So fxed for next cycle.

 

[mzswizz]

how are you ladies?

AFM, im cd19 today. My temp dropped today to the lowest it has been for this cycle. Im still early in the cycle so I don't know what's going to happen as of right now. DH and I dtd anyways just to make sure we are covering our bases. Well, I am almost done with school And on top of that, in 3 weeks, I will be getting my tattoo colored in and DH will be with me so its our little bond time. Im going to be saving up with each paycheck I get The tattoo artist said it shouldn't be much, price wise, but im going to atleast have $80 with me because that is how much it cost me to get it done. So we will see. Im ready to try the Clomid but nervous because I think we might miss the window seeing that DH isn't really going to be here as much between next month-December. Hopefully, SOMETHING happens and we are able to make it happen. If not, then there's always January when he comes back from his detachment. So we shall see. Trying to get pregnant before March because that's when he goes on deployment. His deployment is 6 months and also when I give birth...they will fly him back here so he can be there for the labor and also give him some time off so he can spend time with the baby and I so it will all work out for us. Just patiently waiting now.

 

[staceyj83]

Hey sorry I haven't been around life is hell right now last cycle wad 26 days long af was here for 9 days my FIL passed away sep 5th and I was the one who found him in his bed it was my bigest fear come true he had been watching nicholas a short while before that and seem to be fine it was his heart me and hubby are breaking up and I'm looking for a place for me and the kids things haven't been good for awhile us now the only time we talk is when we are fighting I can't do it anymore and my babies don't need it so if I'm not around for awhile forgive I'll be back when things are more normal good luck to both of you awesome ladies on ttc hope I come back to see some bfps

 

[mzswizz]

Stacey-wow im sorry to hear that. I hope everything gets better for you soon And I totally understand. If it is nothing but arguing, then the kids don't need to be around that. Its best to just get some space etc. GL on everything.

AFM, im on cd21 today and feeling pretty good. Well, if tomorrow's temp is 97.15 or higher...then I will have my crosshairs for the 19th Just my luck I ov right when I get the Clomid I hope I do ov so I can have atleast a chance BEFORE getting on the Clomid If I do get the crosshairs...I o'd rather early this cycle compared to my normal cd24 or around a little after that. So this is good. Also, while dtd I started spotting I actually had spotting right BEFORE dtd but I didn't know for sure. But while dtd, I saw it afterwards FOR SURE. It wasn't red at all. It was just a light pink. Im thinking ov spotting maybe Even though I never had that before. I knew it couldn't have been ib because I didn't get a confirmed ov yet and I knew it couldn't be AF because bleeding JUST ended 10 days ago. So Im writing it off as ov spotting or after ov spotting maybe. Because it did occur yesterday the day after my temp had dropped super low. So maybe that's what it is. I hope so So now tomorrow if I get my crosshairs (FXed I do) then I am officially in the 2ww and will be 3dpo Im hoping I catch the eggy this time around because it seems like my body is really doing its on thing and its perfect timing. Lastly, I finished the online program for medical coding and billing Now, I just have to talk to someone to see what is the next step
