This was after about 25 minutes. The test says to wait ten. It got darker between 10-25. Still not a positive though. And this is my first time using this brand. So I'm not sure if this is what they always look like or what.

 

[krissie328]

That looks like a good line brandi. Fx it keeps getting darker.

Looks like your near to O either it will come today or tomorrow xx

We'll I think I'll get my positive today and I always O the next day after my positive so I know I'm out there maybe the slimmest of chances if I O on Tues and my egg lasts 24 hrs before being dispelled but I very much doubt it xx

Whoop ladies I got two big follicles ready to go, both are 1.9 in size, because David's in hospital only discharged tonight we won't trigger til tomorrow so ovulation Wednesday!

 

[krissie328]

Yay Red! Fx you catch one or both those eggies.

 

[dogmommy]

Sorry I've been out of town! I've missed so much.

Brandi you look really close to positive girl! Did you do another opk?

Redrose whoohoo on your follies fingers crossed! Sorry about your hubby. Hopefully you figure out a way to catch that eggy!

Angela there's still a chance! I would be jumping on dh when you see him!!

Krissie when are you testing??? You're 7 dpo already!

I didn't have any opk with me so I haven't tested yet but I don't have any EWCM so I'm thinking I'm safe. Today is CD 10 and we are going to start BDing tonight!

Good luck ladies! It's bound to be our turn sooner or later!

 

[krissie328]

I know!! This tww is actually going by quicker than I was expecting. I am trying to hold out and test Wednesday but I might tomorrow. Depends on how crazy my morning is. It is an early day to get ds to my mom's which means leaving the house at 6:20 and so sometimes things get forgot. Like testing.

 

[brandi91]

Yay Red! So exciting!

Kristie, good luck!

Dogmommy, I've taken several and none have been positive. Im CD 12. Im honestly thinking it's not going to happen this month. I've already accepted it. I know this dosage doesn't work for me. :/ My temps haven't shown any rise.

 

[AngelaALA]

Brandi so sorry to hear that but you could O late what will be your Dr's next step if it doesn't work will you move to injections FX for you hun xx

Red that is amazing news so happy for you FX and Goodluck I'll be watching you closely this month for that BFP xx

Dogmommy FX you O soon xx

Krissie Goodluck and I really hope this month is it for you xx

AFM DH isn't back till tomorrow and from my dip I Od yesterday so I know that I am completely out now, I'm still going to temp just so that I have a record of this month and also so I can see if any patterns emerge from my charts if I compare them xx

 

[brandi91]

Angela, not sure of my next step. They may try me on the 150 mg. she told me in January that if I wasn't pregnant in six months she wanted to refer me to a specialist. But we have only done four cycles in that time, three of which have had Clomid. So I'm not sure if she meant cycles or months. I feel like I might have a shot if they put me on the 150. And then if that didn't work, I could move on to another medicine maybe, like Femara.

So sorry about your O date! Maybe BD when hubby gets home just in case????

 

[AngelaALA]

Hey Brandi I will BD wen he gets home but I already know it will be pointless as CM is now sticky and all pains occurred two days ago and egg only lasts up to 24 hrs the max but like I said I knew there was a huge chance of it happening so I'm glad I didn't take clomid due to me Oing on my own I'm going to give it another two months if no joy take clomid in August as if I'm honest March and April is horrendous time to have another baby as them months are awful in our families for birthdays but if in them months I do fall pregnant then I guess it was meant to be xx

It seems a little pointless for your Dr to continue with clomid if you are resistant and I agree with you about asking for femera next cycle instead I really hope you do O hun it's annoying that your Dr didn't just increase you to 150 anyway since last month was a wash out I would ask the question as to why xx

 

[krissie328]

Brandi- I complete agree with Angela.. I hope he listens and let's you move to femara.

 

[RedRose19]

You can usually tell by cycle 2/3 that the Clomid isn't working. But the drs can be a pain! I'd say femara or injections are next.

I took my trigger shot yesterday, and I woke feeling so crampy, I'm in agony today, and its only 7am sore lower back, and my side where the two follicles are , is sore. But I'm smiling cuz I know it's good news. Last time I took the trigger shot I just know I didn't ovulate, this is probably my first ovulation in probably 6 months maybe longer! The one thing keeping us back! Please God say this does the trick I'm even usually pre seed, I can't think what else I can do

 

[AngelaALA]

I really hope this month is your month red FX for you xx

 

[RedRose19]

Thanks Angela! I know you missed ovulation but I'm so happy to hear you ovulated on your own! It's all the healthy changes! Keep it up!

The cramping has stopped already, I don't think I have ovulated yet, I hope it's not like with the Clomid where I'd very little cramping and found out later I didn't ovulate, not that I wanna be in pain lol I just hope everything goes to plan, gonna keep up the bd for another few days to be sure. I know it can take up to 48 hours for the trigger shot to work, took it yesterday lunch time, so could be lunch time Thursday before it works

 

[dogmommy]

Red rose fingers crossed for you!!

Brandi I feel your frustration I think I would push to see a specialist as it's probably not good for your body to keep taking clomid.

Angela I'm sorry about your luck this cycle...not to sound cliche but miracles happen when you least expect it!

Afm my follicle scan is tomorrow all my opk have been very negative but hopefully my follies are big enough to get trigger shot tomorrow. This is our last round trying on our own .the thought of iui really scares me so fingers crossed this works!

 

[AngelaALA]

Dogmommy and redrose FX you get your BFPS this month xx

Dogmommy I know what your saying but I'm not hopeful at all we did BD Thurs night/Fri early hours of morning before DH left on Fri I possibly Od either late Sunday or sometime Monday/late Monday going into Tues so dependant on when O happened we BD this morning so there's a slim chance that the egg may still have been present or there's a slim chance his sperm may have still been present as could last up to 5 days but it is all very very slim chance so I'm not holding my breath and expect AF in 12 days time xx

 

[brandi91]

Good luck everyone!!!!

Angela, I hope the best for you this cycle! You're in your 2ww, at least!

Dogmommy, please let us know how it goes tomorrow!!!!!!

Red rose, I really hope this is your month!!!!

On a side note, I've had some pretty dark OPKs today. But none are a true positive. I've had them like this before with a different brand....I also had yellow jelly-like CM. It was a little stretchy and an interesting texture overall. I've had dark OPKs before, but not this many in a row. The bottom one was on only a 45 minute hold.
