Spearmint Cysters for Science! | 20 ladies so far!

[RedRose19]

Ive just 2lvs to loose before getting to 10% body fat gone it probably is just a way to encourage because when you say 10% it doesnt sound too bad, as of today im 1 stone and 2lbs down! Also the spotting has stopped

 

[laurac1988]

Yaaaay for weight loss and yaaaaay for spotting stopping!

Positive OPK for me today. Donation late tonight

 

[rebeccalouise]

Yay, well-done redrose!
FX for you this cycle Laura X

 

[Penguin20]

Laura - Yes thank you, it all went well saw the heartbeat and the baby has grown so its looking good, fingers cross it carries on going well
I had some red bleeding after the exam but think that was down to the internal exam as it was a blob then pink spotting for couple hours then nothing pretty much

fx for all you ladies

 

[rebeccalouise]

Tested, BFN today! I'm SO fed up, sorry to sound so selfish but WHY!? Every month I get my hopes up, this is the first month I've been late in over a year, and still no .. I must be around 12dpo today, if not later.. I've felt sick on and off all day, I've been exhausted since about 8dpo, no usual signs of AF arriving, infact I had lots of creamy/white CM today, not a hint of blood! I'm so confused

I hope you're all okay ladies, so glad to hear it's all going well Penguin x

 

[laurac1988]

Great news penguin
Sorry Rebecca xxx

 

[GingerPanda]

I'm sorry Rebecca.

On the plus side, those all sound like symptoms of a good progesterone level. It could be that the lowering of your testosterone is giving you a longer LP (you indicated it was 12 days or shorter, I think). This will come with a stronger O and a longer LP, both of which will improve your chances of becoming pregnant in the future. I hope you continue. This month wasn't your month, but don't forget that you ARE making progress! It might just take some time.


Penguin, great to hear! it is normal to spot after a transvaginal ultrasound and even after sex. Your cervix is very sensitive right now!

 

[rebeccalouise]

Thanks Panda I'm going to keep at it, don't worry! Just waiting for AF to arrive now! Xxx

 

[RedRose19]

Do you think this opk looks nearly positive?

 

[laurac1988]

Euuuuurgh Mine keep doing that "half the line is darker" thing, too. I would says almost +++

 

[RedRose19]

Its just normally id ovulate around now but I always think its sooner I think mostly because im always impatient but thinking I should bd around now jist incase because normally we miss it

 

[Mrs. and Mrs.]

Well I would def. keep bding if your not sure!

 

[rebeccalouise]

Still no AF, and no signs! I see something on today's test, but I'm thinking evap.. OH said if AF still hasn't shown by Sunday, we'll go out and get a better test! X

 

[Mrs. and Mrs.]

I think buying a new test on sunday is a great idea!

 

[rebeccalouise]

I'll keep you updated! I hope you're all okay? X

 

[Mrs. and Mrs.]

I'm doing great! I'm currently on cycle day two. My face is a hot mess because of the progesterone I just took to induce the cycle, but hopefully that'll calm down. I've been really bad about drinking my tea the last couple of days. I need to go home and make a pot before I head of to bed.

But I've got my IUI scheduled for the 17th! Wahoooooo!

 

[rebeccalouise]

Yay! Good luck I hope your face clears up soon for you I always breakout in spots right before I ovulate Yeah, good idea I try to have two cups a day now, at least. X

 

[rebeccalouise]

AF got me. Devastated. OH is upset too The only positive I can think of, is that this is my second normal 30 day cycle in a row, since last June. So I'm hoping things have settled down for good, and that we have a really good chance of catching that egg next month! Thank you for all of your support ladies. I've had a little cry, so I guess it's just onto the next month now.. X

 

[GingerPanda]

I'm sorry Rebecca. But you're right. The more regular your cycles get, the more your chances of success go up! I hope it's just a matter of time before you get your BFP!

 

[rebeccalouise]

I'm hoping next month, as testing day would be just after our wedding day! and my fertile days fall over the weekend OH is off work, bonus. Get AF out of the way, then onto the next ovulation x
