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

[FngrsCrossed]

Yay for the eggy on your chart! I can't wait to see mine one of these days! I started the Soy tonight. It's been about 3 hrs and I'm feeling hot, but I think it's a little hot in here anyway. I only took the recommended daily dose (80mg) and I think I'll up it to 120 tomorrow and then 160 the other 3 days if I tolerate it well.

I am glad that you got it last night. I am eager to see what it does, I hope it induces ovulation for you. Hot flash..oh my! lol I hope it's just the room temp, and not the soy. Is that one of the side effects? I hope not, if so when you up it you might have to hit the showers and turn the water on cold to cool off. lol I get hot flashes from time to time. especially around ovulation and during the LP...I woke up early again today...smh Gosh I hate doing that. Well my temp this morning was 96.72, adjusted on TCOYF it's 97.1...I was looking at my chart and thinking I may have ovulated anywhere from in the middle of the night to sometime this afternoon. I took another opk at 7pm and it was super dark. So it leaves only tonight for dancing, my 24 hours will be up no later than tomorrow afternoon. Dh gets off in the evenings so by the time he makes it home tomorrow night it will be too late to dance.

I think that microscope has given me a better idea of when I am ovulating. I can see the ferning work its way up from PF to Full and then these last two days it's winding down. I had ferning this morning too. It looks like yesterdays (winding down, still full, but not as elaborate as Sunday). It's starting to break apart juuuust around the outline, but not the center. Today makes 5 days of Ferning. Wow! What a fertile period! Well, the leaflet DID say it will give you your most fertile 6 days...They hold true to THAT!

Here is a pic of last nights opk..EDIT: Added this mornings 7am test-fmu.

Hi guys, and fngrscrossed your ovulation results look very good. For some reason I always got negatives. I began to actually fear that I never ovulated! Sorry about spelling mistakes, typing on this phone is a friggin nightmare lol. Currently on 9dpo and still getting BFPs! Staying calm but not excited as my mp isn't due til sunday. But as for ovulation sticks they wasn't working out for me xxx

 

[L.E.]

Yay for the BFPs, Zombie! It's so nice to see those 2 beautiful lines. Positive opks are almost as exciting too. I'm holding out for both of mine still.

Fngrs, your tests still look great. I'm curious to see what your temp does tomorrow. As for me, my temp dropped a lot today, so we'll see what comes of that. It would be nice if it stayed low for a few days and then I O'd. Wishful thinking.

Oh and yes, hot flashes can be a symptom. I'm thinking it may be a symptom for me, but we'll see. My face is feeling a little warm right now and I took a pill about 40 mins ago. Going to take 2 before bed time.

Thanks..Some people just don't have big LH surges, so that's why you probably got all of the negatives. Some opk's seem to be less sensitive. last cycle I got positives starting CD13. They were completely negative on CD17. I had a long surge last cycle. No bfp though. Ah, don't worry about spelling, you should see some of my typo's and sometimes I refuse to go back and correct them. Congrats on still getting bfp's, hope all of us ladies on here get ours. I am using a microscope also this cycle as well as the opk's. But I think that your bean will be a sticky one...are your tests dark? If you aren't having a problem seeing the line then there isn't much to fear.

Took one this afternoon, got another smile. Not posting pic because the smiles are all the same, stick is still as dark. I think my temp will do the spike tomorrow. Hopefully it will spike to 97.4 or higher. So I best prepare myself for the night sweat I am going to have...lol the LP is the hottest time of the month for me, no pun intended. It's literally 14 days of, "Sahara Dessert, where is the water? Oh no...mirage!" type hot and sweating. I think I will be sleeping with no clothes on if it gets too hot.

Good luck on not being flush and hot tonight for bedtime. That pill sounds like a doozie, it's especially going to be when you up the dose. But as long as it does what it's suppose to do then that's what counts. I'd taken a look at your chart. temp did a big dip this morning. I could just see it going up in my mind. That would have been too awesome.

Where is MsSwizz today? She must be busy and/or working.

 

[zombiefan83]

Hi guys, yeah they are quite dark, can see them without having to lift them off the counter. My first symptom was a very spotty face! Lol. Not normal for me lol xxx

 

[mzswizz]

fngrs-yay for the smiley. Mines is still negative of course.

zombie-great that you have a sticky bean!!1

l.e. fxed for you!!!

AFM, sorry dh and i have been very busy today. And we will eb busy tomorrow. DH and I dtd 3 times today and also went to the beach with my friend so we have just been busy. Will give a proper update on thursday because i most likely wont be on tomorrow either.

lol don't you just love the break outs? I had that in June2011..I don't usually have acne. I had it once with ovulation, but not since.

 

[FngrsCrossed]

Went to my mom's birthday party...had a blast with all of my family there. She is getting older and was trying to tell people she is longer than her actual age...lol like we don't know her age...lol lol lol

 

[L.E.]

Wow MzSwizz ... You're a machine! LOL Glad you and DH enjoy each other though. Neither DH nor I have high drives, but obviously that works for you two and that's what matters.

 

[L.E.]

Just realized I said hot flashes are a "symptom"... I mean side effect lol. And yes they definitely are for me. I've taken 3 pills today and I've felt hot for a little while after each of them. Tomorrow (well technically today) will be 4 pills, and the same thing on Thurs and Fri. I sure do hope they bring O on!

 

[FngrsCrossed]

L.E. lol a read "symptom" but knew what you meant, lol symptom, side effect all the same to me. lol I can't imagine DH and I dancing 3 times in one day. That would suit me just fine, DH wouldn't be able to dance that many times. the most I can get is 2 out of him. When we were younger we did 3 times and more. But not now. I would love it if he had the energy for three times in one day. I think I would start trying to do that everyday if he was a 3+ guy.

My chart has me , FF says I ovulated yesterday. My temp just didn't spike yet to prove that. Woke up to 96.76 this morning. Maybe Ov today? OR, I Think something went wrong while sleeping. I hang my leg out of the bed when I get hot, and put it back under the cover after I cool off. Not sure if I did that or not, or what's going on. I had partial ferning this morning. Nothing to get excited about kind of ferning. It was almost completely gone. So waiting on my scope to sample to dry now so I can see what's going on with that.

You temp looks good this morning!

 

[L.E.]

I'm no expert in charting for sure, but what would your temperature do if you ovulated overnight last night? Wouldn't it be low today or would it have risen already? You've never geared up to and then not O'd have you? I'm guessing you'll see your rise tomorrow though. I think I O'd 2 days after my first positive the 2 times I O'd.

 

[L.E.]

Oh and I ordered my next batch of 100 Wondfos . I'm not out yet, but I don't have a ton left and I hate when I run out.

I also started a thread in the TTC section posting about how I started Soy on CD88. I didn't find much about starting it so late when I googled it, so I figured I'd make a thread for anyone who is interested to see (now or later).

Isn't that weird what my temp did?

If I didn't mouth breath or hang that stupid foot out, it should spike...Which makes me question FF about yesterday. If I in fact didn't hang my foot out that would make it today. On my TCOYF (this morning) chart I put ovulation down for today. I have never geared up and failed to ovulate, ever. In all of my time charting, it has never happened. I am not saying that it isn't possible. It just hadn't happened to me. I guess the 2 chemicals really messed me up. The Feb-March chemical was the worst from the looks of it. I started looking at my chart from the last loss, before last cycle and looks like the chemicals have shortened my LP, and Lengthened my Follicular phase. So I guess this is going to end up being another $25 co-pay and my RX copay and a BILL. Dr. may have to end up regulating my cycles...(sighs) Guess we will see if I even get a bfp this cycle!

I think it will rise tomorrow too. Well I sure hope it does. :/

That's actually what I need to get on Amazon and do. Look at the hpt's and find some. I have Wondfo's left, but I really want to try something else. Too scared that they are going to send me tests with the same batch numbers as last cycle. Don't need false positives, evaps, or anything of the sort.

Well link it back on this thread and I am going to check on it. Heck I might have to start it if no bfp to induce ovulation earlier. My bestie has clomid..Think I might ask her for them..lol no joke I think I might.

fngrs-dont you just love when ff confuses us

l.e. yes dh and i do have high sex drives but i dont know if thats a curse

AFM, im on cd1 and my temp is 97.28. I had an anonovulatory cycle this time. I didnt have too much hope in this cycle because of the long bleeding. Atleast i get a fresh start. A few hours after i took my temp and opk, i started having the spotting and then it gradually increased. Now onto another cycle. I have 8 opks left so I will have to buy some more once the bleeding stops of course. Now, it onto May cycle. Here's to o'ing this cycle. For this cycle, i've been drinking more water, and also exercising. DH and I have been doing the UFC trainer program for xbox kinect which is pretty intense and great. I love working out to it. Not only are we burning calories but also learning how to defend ourselves/fight so that's pretty good. Alot of boxing/kickboxing involved. Also, dh is definitely joining the Coast Guard BUT he has to lose 20 lbs before the recruiter sends him into the training and he also has to do the ASVAB. So we have time to still conceive before he would have to be sent off to training so im happy about that. So here's to conceiving and him being able to join the Coast Guard.

 

[L.E.]

Aww don't fret just yet, Fngrs! I bet you'll see that rise tomorrow. Seeing as how your cycles are just about ideal, I don't know if I'd mess with them... I mean unless you don't get your temp rise because that would be so unusual for you. But they say a wacky cycle here and there is to be expected. It just stinks when those happen when you're TTC. If it makes you feel better, I have NEVER had a normal cycle (besides on the pill... which isn't normal anyway).

MzSwizz, well a bfp would be better, but as long as this is legitimately AF (and not just bleeding), then that's good to have the fresh start.

I just took my 2nd dose of 80 mg today. I did not notice any hot flashes earlier with my first dose, but we'll see what happens. Thankfully I haven't felt too grouchy like some people do and I haven't had any headaches. So far so good. Now if I would just stop spotting, ovulate, conceive, get a BFP, and a forever baby, I'd be over the moon! That's not too much to ask, is it? LOL

Yes I just love the confusion as if it isn't enough that my own body confuses me, lets at a software program that does it too! got my much deserved thermal shift this morning. Thank God!

sorry about the annov cycle...Gosh that so sucks. But at least you will have more info for the Dr. when you guys go back. And he may start you on Clomid, which would be awesome (can you say, Pierce Elijah + Ariel Mariah= TWINS ?). Well I am glad that you will still be able to TTC and that he isn't going off so soon. I rememeber that ASVAB, I hated that mechanical part, but I passed it with flying colors. Just didn't go into any branch of the military. Glad I didn't I wouldn't have ever met my DH. My SIL and I are going to join a Gym near house, we were talking about it yesterday. 20 bucks a month and comes with a trainer too. I imagine that kickboxing on X-box has to e quite a workout.
