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

[L.E.]

PS- Sorry about your bfn... Even when we know it's going to be negative, we always want to see that bfp.

 

[L.E.]

Just going to vent really quickly lol... I think my temp will drop tomorrow and the craziness of this long cycle will continue with CD74 or I'll get AF soon. If I didn't O, then the spotting will keep on keeping on til I get my pap, and Provera some time in May. Grrrrr. Feeling very tired and not very optimistic today. I had a little more spotting tonight... was basically some red streaks in cm that was pretty much ewcm. My body is so weird. Oh and bfns on Wondfo opks and hpts. Hope you all had a nice weekend.

L.E. the temp drop could be implantation dip. Who knows But im rooting for ya still. Also, yes i have talked my mom to death about ttc so she now knows more than she thought she knew

AFM, today is cd18 and my temp is at 97.42. So the bleeding is still here. Today is my doc appt so I am sooo ready to go. I have printed out my charts and FF gave me free VIP membership trial for 5 days so now when i printed out my charts, it is more detailed so that's good because now I won't have to explain all the symptoms etc that I've been having. I must admit, I am a little nervous which is normal every time I go to the doc because I don't know what to expect. So hopefully all my questions will be answered and I will have prescribed progesterone by the time I leave the doc appt. So we shall see how today goes. DH's grandma had said that she better see a car seat in the backseat of our car soon So dh said well the boss has spoken so we have to make it happen now We both were talking and I think the reason DH really wanted a child all this time is because his grandma when she said that around 2 weeks ago. Hey im happy she said that since it pushed him forward DH wants to bless his grandma with a great grand and I understand. She is a wonderful lady and you can tell she loves us to the death so I have no problem giving her a wonderful gift like that. Well I see Ih ave become long winded Well that's all for now until I update about the doc.

Yea I almost always have FRER coupons to use. My store (I live in Ohio) was selling them for $7.99 for a 3 back (2 pack + a free one), but I think last time I got one they were maybe $8.99. Still not a bad deal with the $2 off.

Well I'm not sure what's up with me just yet. Yesterday I only had spotting once and it was not much at all. Then when I woke up this morning, I had more of a light bleed/heavy spot. It took a couple wipes to get it all, but there was only 1 little spot in my liner. We had church and family over so I didn't get to pay much attention to it, but I just checked it a few mins ago (3:30 pm EST) and there was nothing there. Checked my cvx and it was pretty high and soft and I have a lot of clear slippery cm (makes me feel like I'm bleeding even though I'm not). I don't know if that means AF coming. I'd like to think my temp dip and extra spotting was implantation but that's just wishful thinking.

HOLY COW L.E.!!! That's 5.99 a box! How awesome!! Gosh I might have to check Target ot for sure. If you want more coupons I am willing to send them. I live in Louisiana, I usually go to WalMart so if Target sells the coupons over this way, I wouldn't know. But I am defo going to check them out! Especially if they are 7.99 a box here. I think they are 12.98 at Walmart here. I just grab the box so I can't be for sure. I usually grab a lot of boxes

You chart with the last to temps looks like mine! I have that weird shape to mine to I am going to overlay and post it so you can see it also. So if it's implantation for you then its a good sign for me. Is there any way you can get your hands on some progesterone cream at least? I hope it's IB, and an implantation dip!!!

l.e. fxed for you.

AFM, im on cd17 and my temp is 97.64. Sooo my body is doing its own thing. I am spotting on and off. DH told me to take a test to rule out pregnancy so i did and it was negative of course. Also, tomorrow is my doc appt. My mom wants to go with me. It's okay though because she knows that dh and i are ttc. The only thing is, once we do get pregnant....i am keeping it a secret from her until i am 12 weeks. But she can see what i got to go through though. Its nice to have someone on my side when going through these rough times. Well, dh and i went to the movies this morning and now we are visiting family. Cant wait until tomorrow.

Sorry it was negative too MsSwizz, but at least now you know it's not a pregnancy gone bad... None of us need to go through that again. I am so anxious to hear about how your appointment went today and I know LE is too. We are going to be stalking I can see that now! And yes it is nice to have someone with you there. my mom and DH came to that ultrasound I had last cycle. My mom is usually there for everyone that needs her. Your mom is a great mom. You'd be surprised at the people I know that actually don't get that from their mom. We don't always have to agree with our mom's but in the end we are still their baby and they will still be there.

Tested this morning with SMU, didn't test with FMU because I didn't think it would be anything. Plus I used the last FRER yesterday evening..Just to get rid of them! Anyhow I used a Wondfo this "SMU" and I think I saw a line on it. I actually did 3...First one had a faint line and was questionable so I opened another dipped it saw the indents on it; got upset with Formosa for doing that, opened another, check it for indents (none) dipped it and got a faint on it too. The indent had a faint line also. tell me what you ladies think...I know what you are going to say already ladies FRER... I know I know I know..I should have listened to the good lord when he told me not to use it yesterday and to save it for today...obedience is better than sacrifice. Thought it was me saying that though..Guess not!


The file names should tell which ones they are, I just kinda' oploading in no particular order...I am going to get a FRER I guess...this afternoon...

 

[L.E.]

Well I woke up to no spotting but that doesn't mean I won't have some in 10 mins lol... just how it is lately.

OOOH Mzswizz, I'm waiting to hear how your appt goes! Whatever the reason, it's nice that your DH has really warmed up to it all.

Fngs, our charts do look pretty similar. I'm not really sure how accurate my temps are since there is a lot of adjusting on there. But if I wake up and have to pee, I have to pee. There's no getting around it lol, so I just temp earlier and go back to sleep.

I do have progesterone cream here at home. Do you really think I should use it? I guess it couldn't hurt since I don't think my spotting will go away on it's own. I just know if I didn't O, it will likely suppress it. Hmm, I'm going to think about that one for a little bit today.

I'm not sure what I think about your tests. I can't say I see something, but I can't say I don't either... It's one of those "maybe might be" things. I've seen some early bfps on Wondfos but I know you didn't have much luck with them. You're probably like me, though. I must see it on FRER either way to believe it.

EDIT: Haha well it only took me a couple mins... I went ahead and started the cream already. I had a little spotting when I went to the bathroom and figured I'd just dive in. Either it will help it or it won't. I don't think it can really hurt right now.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

I will admit I do need to see it on a FRER to believe anything. I'd lost faith in FRER, and actually started thinking I maybe was never preggo before. But since then with all of the BFN's on them, I thought about that again and said ok so I did have 2 early m/c's and FRER wasn't lieing about me being pregnant. Started thinking that I should wait for AF before testing again with FRER. I mean if she is going to show it's going to be tomorrow. That would be her shining arrival date. So I will wait to see what tomorrow brings. If my temp goes up and she is a no show then I guess I will test.

Not sure what's going on with those tests..I was actually just testing for fun. Didn't think there would be a questionable line on it. Probably nothing. I will just keep on with my day today. I will admit that I need a nap, been up since 6 this morning (as usual) but i need to get dinner prepared. Making beef stew so I have veggies to chop. :/

 

[L.E.]

Hopefully your temp goes up and stays away for 9 months!

 

[L.E.]

Well another day, another BFN for me. IF I ovulated (and that's a big IF), I'm 10 dpo with bfn and I would expect AF in 3 or 4 days I think. Since I didn't temp, I could only guess my O date based on OPKs and it came at 13-14 dpo both times so we'll see what happens by Friday. It seems like all I do is wait, pee on sticks, and see bfns.

I know juuuuust about how you feel with the bfn's... I let one of my Wondfo's dry and scanned it. LE it really does have a line. it has color too. I thought that I saw a line on the SMU#3 test. I think I did because it's still there!!!

It's darker in person..I am trying to get a regular pic on my camera instead of it being in the light of the scanner... Now I still say it may be nothing, but who knows? FRER does!!!

 

[L.E.]

I think the scanner is washing it out. Far away I sort of see it, but lose it close up. Are you getting more FRERs today? I'm going to try to hold off on buying any since I see nothing on my Wondfos... Once I buy a 3 pack of FRERs, they're gone in less than 24 hrs lol.

 

[mzswizz]

Hey ladies. DH and I went to my appt. Sorry it took long to reply, i was tired. Well, doc checked my charts and said i have o'd last month and this month it looked like i tried to ov but it didnt happen so i didnt ov yet. He wants us to try naturally for 3 months with opks and then if we dont conceive, when i go back july 23rd...he is ordering a full check on my uterus, fallopian tubes (hsg) and SA for dh and work from there. We bought the cb digi opks, the month supply and i will start testing once the bleeding stops. Also, no progesterone for 3 months because he wants to observe what my body does on its own and then work from there. So let's see what happens.

 

[L.E.]

That sounds reasonable of him. Is he a RE, OBGYN, or a regular doc? Just curious as I would be surprised if it was a regular doc. It sounds like he's going to pull out all the stops for you and that's great!! Hopefully you get your bfp and a sticky bean before then though.

I just looked at your chart and you're back to a light bleed vs spotting?

 

[L.E.]

Fngrs, did you test with FRER tonight? I still got BFN after a 3 hr hold so... yea nothing new to report... I did go shopping for about 3 hours (it sounds like I shop a lot, but really I don't... just this week lol) and I thought maybe I'd bled, but I didn't. I'm guessing it was cm (tmi). But I did check my cvx and it's high and soft, very wet up there but it's like a slippery, creamy/lotiony mix. I'm probably out, but for all I know I haven't even O'd yet. I'm curious as to what tomorrow's temp will do.

 

[mzswizz]

Fngrs-Cant wait for an update test!!!

L.E.- actually he is my ob/gyn My regular doc did nothing but check my levels on cd7 and said everything was fine and thats it. And yes im happy that he is doing everything in his power to help us conceive. He is a great doc i must say and he actually listens. He dont judge us from our age or anything. He says you are trying? then ok i want you to come back in 3 months if not pregnant..sooner if you are and we will test EVERYTHING even dh so i was super happy. And he want us to use the opks sooo im just ready to poas. And yes it has turned into a light flow. It increased more after i left the doc.

AFM, so im on cd19 today and im still bleeding. It has actually increased after my ob/gyn did a vaginal check. My temp is also 97.37 today. Yesterday went pretty well i may say. So I pretty much have 2 cycles left before going back to my doc in July (if im not pregnant before then). I forgot to mention that he did ask did we want to do the SA, HSG etc yesterday but we both decided we just will wait the 3 months like he said in the beginning. The reason for the 3 month wait is because he said that he wants to atleast see if my body can conceive naturally before involving medication and dh and i both agree with that. Not saying there is anything wrong with having the help of medicine. We are just saying we want to see if it can actually happen. I know I know...i've been fighting this for 2 years now but subconsciously...im just going to show him that something is obviously wrong and then we will get the help we need. Also, on my calendar, is shows that my AF would be due around the follow up check up. So atleast he will be at the start of AF when he starts testing. I believe this is going to help us conceive. Heck if I waited 2 yrs..I can wait 3 months. Atleast I know that in 3 months..we are going to know everything and work from there. Instead of 2 yrs of not knowing. So the countdown has started. Next week marks the month of May sooo 2 more months already before I go back

 

[L.E.]

Only have a sec right now... I'll be back on in a little to respond... Just wanted to say my temp was 96.71 this morning. Looks like I'll be getting AF or I never O'd.

 

[mzswizz]

Booo hopefully you o'd later than we think and you are in the beginning of the 2ww.

 

[L.E.]

Sounds like a great appointment and doctor mzswizz!

I sooo don't understand my body lol. I guess we'll see what happens the next couple days (more waiting). The funny thing is that I haven't had any spotting since maybe dinner time yesterday (of course it could pop back up at any time)... Even after 2 or 3 hrs of walking around Kohls I had no spotting. I tried to check my cvx and my vg has totally changed shape and there's 2 huge bumps that won't let me check. So strange.

I went back to bed after I posted my temp and when I got back in bed, I temped to see what it said and it was 95.34... really? I was cold, but I don't see how your temp could decrease that much in a matter of a couple minutes.

 

[L.E.]

Ok so either I'm getting a surge before AF, or I'm going to O soon. I hope it's the 2nd one!! I noticed a little bit of an increased drive 2 days ago and last night for sure, but I didn't act on it as DH wasn't feeling well. I had every intention of BD tonight even before seeing my opks, so now I'll be BD for sure. Nothing will stand in my way (insert evil cackle here)!! LOL I hope they get darker later or tomorrow.

Which do you think is more likely?

EDIT: I think my 3:27 pm ones are a little darker even... one test is sort of weird looking and the other looks like the test line is slightly darker than the control... This makes me happy. I discarded those fake temps for now.
