Should I worry about late ovuation and possible M/C?

[Kimiw]

Hi there again ladies, so I am CD 21 today and just got my positive OPK. I am on my second round of Clomid. On my first cycle I got my positive OPK on CD 18. I have read that late O can result in M/C? Is that true? Should I be worried??

my bfp cycle i didn't o until cd 24. i'm 25 weeks today and so far everything's been fine. neither my fs nor my ob seemed concerned about my late ovulation. we were ttc for two years and i don't have any previous pregnancies to compare it to, but i don't think it's anything you should be concerned about. gl this cycle!

thank you for taking the time to reply to my post. And Congrats on your pregnancy!! I hope this is it for me! It feels like we have been trying forever.

i'll definitely keep everything crossed. we were only two years in and it felt like an eternity!!! wishing you all the luck in the world that this is your cycle!!!

Thank you! I remember when we hit the 2 year mark, it felt like FOREVER, now, 6 years later, we just don't expect much....but, I suppose there is always hope. This cycle and last cycle I O'd which was enough to make me smile. I had NO idea what it was like to O so I was very excited. I am keeping hope, but not going to allow myself to obsess or get my hopes up, it is easier for me to expect a BFN then to symptom spot, convince myself I am preggo then have my heart shattered when AF arrives. Congrats again!! I am so happy for you!!!

it's so funny how different your perspective is when ttc is hard for you. it used to be hard for me to go into the tww section and read about girls who were fussing over their 3rd month ttc even though they were all o'ing on like cd 12 or something and there i am bouncing off the walls because i just managed to o on my own.

 

[Kimiw]

I know right! Those ladies O'd every cycle and they just watched for signs of pregnancy, and here I am doing back flips because I had a confirmed O

 

[bexxc]

could you imagine ttc without even so much as a clomid mood swing???

 

[Kimiw]

omg that would be so nice lol. Clomid drove me crazy with the hot flashes and mood swings

 

[bexxc]

i had the worst mood swing once. i was so crazy that it makes me laugh now. i was really hungry and couldn't figure out what to eat, so i decided to make a hard boiled egg. the water was boiling and i went to get the eggs out of the fridge. halfway between the fridge and the stove i decided i didn't want a hard boild egg anymore and i was so mad that i still didn't know what i wanted to eat that i smashed the entire dozen eggs, one by one, all over my kitchen and then i cried because i had to clean up the mess!

LOL that is funny! Clomid can make us do some strange things. I would pick random fights with DH because I felt like being mean then I would cry because he would avoid me LMAO

 

[bexxc]

oh gosh! i did that all the time. i started wishing i could avoid myself!

 

[Kimiw]

I was a nut case! My poor DH lol. I know what you mean, I wanted to avoid myself too! I was seriously insane, I had to keep reminding DH that I wasn't meaning to be so mean I just could not help it. He knew, but I couldn't imagine trying to put up with me!

 

[bexxc]

how early (if at all) do you think you're going to test?

 

[Kimiw]

I am not sure just yet. I have been thinking about that today, I have a feeling that I will be tempted around 10 DPO but I only have one test (and I don't get paid until next friday) so I want to make it count. I am kind of glad, because now I can't get crazy testing every day lol. I won't lie, I really hope it is positive, but I can't let myself get too hopful beause I was so sad last cycle when I got a BFN again. Last cycle was my first on Clomid, so I think I was puting too much faith in it and expected to see a BFP out of it. I don't want to make the same mistake again.

 

[bexxc]

i will be crossing everything tightly for you! i know what you mean about testing. once you wee on that first stick, it's so hard to stop! it's like ttc heroin!

 

[Kimiw]

LOL POAS heroin!

 

[bexxc]

how ya feelin today, hun?

 

[Kimiw]

I'm ok, just feeling a little down today. I know that I am half way through the tww and I am dreading the testing part. I already know it is going to be negative, I just do. I am looking forward to just getting this all over with so I can start my next cycle. I fill like giving up but I know that is not going to change how I feel about desiring a baby. I wish I could be more positive, this IS ONLY my second round of clomid, I still have 2 more cycles to go with it. I just feel really sad today, I don't know why. I have been very emotional today, maybe I just woke up in a funk...lol I don't know.

 

[bexxc]

i'm sure part of it is just the clomid. i used to have terrible twws when i was on it. i'd go from being sure we'd gotten it right this time to thinking i'd never get pregnant and back again ten times a day. it was so exhausting. and you can think however you want about the outcome. i'll keep hoping for you
