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

[mzswizz]

Hopefully this isnt your AF coming. Maybe the meds have something to do with the temps And yes, the doc and his assistant that I work with is trying their best to get me pregnant. They know ive been trying for 3 years so if one thing doesnt work, they move on. I didnt ov the 1st round of Clomid so thats when they did the follicle scan and the trigger shot the 2nd cycle. And now since that was a fail, the 3rd cycle of clomid will be clomid, trigger shot and IUI. Im thankful that they actually dont waste any time. Im just hoping i dont have to go through IVF because I dont know if DH's military insurance covers IVF. I know it covers IUI full cost though.

AFM, im on cd3 and AF is very heavy. Dont know if its a good or bad thing but its heavier than normal. Im excited about this cycle and hoping that it works this time. Im hoping to end this year with a bfp so we shall see. Well thats all for now.

 

[L.E.]

Hmm I can't imagine that AF would be coming so soon. With as many issues as I have, the few times I've O'd, I had a normal 14ish day LP. I think it's either the meds or that I didn't O. We'll see. I'm going to try not to take anything tonight. I'd rather get a decent night's sleep than have nice looking temps. I mean, either I O'd or I didn't and coughing my head off isn't going to change that. So even if my temps aren't accurate, temping doesn't make me O if I didn't and vice versa.

Well it's good that his insurance covers it. Not having insurance has definitely been a hinderance to us, but with me babysitting, we have a little bit extra to cover our out-of-pocket regular doctor's visits. I'd rather pay $80 per visit right to the doctor than $300+ monthly to the insurance when I'll still have some money to pay out-of-pocket anyway. We could see the doc once a week for less than we'd have to pay for insurance.

 

[L.E.]

Oh and I'd say the heavy period would be a good thing- means you built up a good lining.

 

[mzswizz]

hopefully your temp goes up and I know. If they dont pay for a procedure then we will be back to trying with minimum assistance.

 

[L.E.]

I keep messing with that one super-high temp. For now it's discarded. It really looked out of place and may very well have been affected by a low-grade fever. While I'm not all that impressed with my temps, I do think it looks like I O'd. I can't explain that many temps over 97.5. Last night I didn't take any meds and don't remember coughing overnight and am pretty sure I don't have a fever and I was back to the 97.58 temp. So with that one gone, my chart has me at 8 dpo. Nothing new to report, though.

 

[mzswizz]

So far your temps look good and atleast you still have your crosshairs. Hopefully they rise up up up because we need to see a bfp from you

AFM, im on cd4 today and i just realized that for the first time in like 13 years that I had a 28 day cycle and a 14 LP So that cycle was pretty good. Nothing new to report here. Still bleeding and DH will be back home Saturday. I got to go in tomorrow to go pick up my Clomid prescription to start taking it on cd5 which is tomorrow. Im very tired so im just going to do school work and relax.

 

[L.E.]

So I went back to our posts from this time last year. Depending what info I keep/exclude on that chart, I either O'd on Dec. 10th or 11th. I posted that I started getting sick with sinus issues and a cough on Dec. 12th. It lasted at least through Dec. 20th- 8 days after starting to feel sick. This seems a little too similar to be a coincidence. This chart has me at O for either Dec. 3rd or 4th and I started feeling sick with a cold on Dec. 3rd. Very suspicious. Today I'm mostly better and it's Dec. 11th- about 8 days since possible O. Wow.

 

[L.E.]

And YAY for a textbook cycle for you!! That is super-exciting!

 

[mzswizz]

Wow that is a crazy coincidence. I think its more like a sign. Maybe you get sick after o'ing. And I had 28 day cycles when i first started having AFs at 10 years old but as i got older it just started extending so now its good to have it again.

 

[L.E.]

Well my mom is evil. She wanted to go to Target tonight so I went with her, got hpts, and peed on one. BFN of course. Not surprising. I'm still not positive that I O'd, but I sure hope I did. FF has me either at 9 or 10 dpo depending on that high discarded temp. Makes me feel like I'm out, but I know there's still a chance (If I O'd of course).

 

[L.E.]

I just realized I'm not 9 or 10 dpo today, but rather 8 or 9 dpo. That makes me feel a little better about a bfn.

 

[L.E.]

Well of course I didn't wake up with my alarms today... blah. So my temp was taken way later. Sometimes that makes a difference and sometimes it doesn't, so who knows. It's still near what my temps have been, so I'm marking it and not worrying about it. Looks like another BFN this morning. When I have opks or hpts in the house, I must pee on them lol.

 

[mzswizz]

Hoping you o'd. AF stopped early for me thank goodness.

 

[L.E.]

Glad to see your AF didn't linger on. Will your IUI be on CD14? If so, you're only a week away from that.

For me, my temp was down today. I'm not trying to let any of it get to me this time. I think the only way I'll be really upset is if I didn't O at all. That would be upsetting. I can handle getting AF, though a BFP right before Christmas would be amazing.

 

[mzswizz]

I will be getting my IUI on cd13 which is friday.

 

[L.E.]

Wow that's moving along so quickly. I guess it does when you have a normal length cycle, but I wouldn't know the feeling lol.

I've had 2 days in a row with my temp a little lower. I'm not stressing over any of it, though. I've been pretty busy and tired the past week or two, and will have another busy 3 weeks ahead. If AF shows her ugly face in a couple days, at least she shouldn't be super-heavy by Christmas. Mine are usually 6-9 days, so I would hope for more like 6. If I didn't O, I won't be stressing much either, as I'm pretty much used to it and have too much going on right now to make that a big deal.

That's it here. Hope your weekend has been a good one. I'm beat, so I'm really considering a nap then some major house-cleaning.

 

[mzswizz]

If it wasn't for the meds, my cycles would be all over the place. And yes time is flying rather quickly. Im hoping you did ov this cycle though.

 

[L.E.]

My body is so weird! Temped at 7- 97.33, 8 a.m. - 97.33... but 8:30 and 9:15 were both 97.73. That's a huge difference and I went right back to sleep every time. Marking it as 97.33 since 7-8 is my normal temping time (though I do temp later sometimes) and we'll see what tomorrow brings. I'm hopefully 13 dpo, so AF should be here no later than Wednesday.

I'd be getting my hopes up if I only saw the 97.73 today, so I guess it's good that I have no idea what's going on lol.

 

[mzswizz]

Wow that was weird about your temps and the time. Hoping it is AF for you so you know that you finally did ov.

AFM, im cd9 today. I have my follicle scan in 3 days. I do the scan on cd12 and if my follicles are mature enough, they will administer the trigger shot and then the following day on cd13, i have the IUI procedure. So time is flying rather quickly in this cycle. DH has been back home since yesterday so we have been spending as much time as we can together. I did miss him dearly. We have to prep for him leaving on his deployment. Even though i been away from him before for more than 6 months, it still takes a little adjusting to do. I have also been back on the hunt for jobs. I have applied at the library down the street from my house. It pays wayyyy more than my previous job like $5-11 raise more and it is less hours but i will still get paid more regardless. So i would be happy if i get the job. Also, i have previous work experience in the libraries so im hoping that helps my chances. Im pretty nervous about this cycle but im hoping DH and I can finally conceive this time. This whole process is tiring but i put up a fught every day because the desire of a child is our motivation. Hopefully, it happens soon for us.

 

[L.E.]

I hope this cycle is your bfp with a sticky bean. I'm still hoping a little that this one is mine too, but trying not to put too much stock in it. I used to want 3 or 4 kids, but I may just have to learn to be content with the one (much closer than I used to be). I do think 2 would be wonderful and then I could relax about whether or not we ever have more.
