Sticking Together Until We All Get BFP's!!!!

[aidensmommy1]

Hun remember that OPKs mean o 12-48 hours later, so not necessarily immediately. Fingers crossed it will be + soon!

I know, its different for us all. Ive been using them far too long lol. But for me, I have a typical OPK pattern, and I'm certain of my "normal" O time so I know it'll be in the next few days . For me myself, I normally O the same day as my positive OPK. So I O no more than 12hrs after, in a normal cycle. My opk wasn't quite there yet but close. I'm out of opks so I won't be opking again this cycle but todays test already gave me a very good idea of when to expect it, thankfully . FX my tubes open tho, thats my only issue right now :-\ I pray for a miracle every cycle!

So I did what Jess and Kenna did. An opk as hpt experiment.... Please watch the video first (as if i'll know what you did first)

HERE's my real OPKs this cycle, the last strip from the right was my solid face. See the difference? The test and control line interchanged from today's opk

Yep, that's what I did too!

So ladies.... the pictures I posted of my spotting yesterday??? Well go up this morning and its gone!! Not had anymore all day... im confused now

That could be the implantation spotting which is very promising.... FX your in just a few days....

I posted some pictures of the spotting yesterday.. not so nice and tmi but I was worried about it...

Now there is nothing.... Feeling tired.. strange twinges... not like period pain... in fact not painfull at all and mild headache for the past two days, have heartburn at the moment.. maybe im just praying for the too much? Maybe im going mad

I really don't want to get your hopes up if AF arrives, but it really seems like implantation is going on right now!

I'm with you mary, my opks are positive same day as o is.

Mary, most doctors and studies agree that the mirena doesn't normally stop ovulation; instead it thickens mucus to make sperm entrance difficult and thins uterine lining to prevent implantation in the event that fertilization occurs. My ob doesn't believe I stopped O-ing while on the mirena. I ignored my initial bleeding/spotting after the hysteroscopy. But then it was gone for two days and suddenly brown spotting that was a little stretchy and didn't smell like blood and now that's gone too. You are probably right about my timing being off, and I really appreciate the reality check. Only time will tell I guess.

This may be ovulation spotting . FX! Def still bd! Its quite common to spot before, during, or after ovulation, or all 3 so hopefully you see a temp rise tomorrow and it stays up! FX!!
Hm, I didn't know that about mirena. I do personally know a few women in real life who didn't ovulate for quite a while after there's was removed but I also know women who oed 2wks later! It all depends on the person, like everything TTC! It drives me nuts! Lol. But my friend was told by a specialist that sometimes just the removal of BC itself causes a change to your body and can make ur hormones wacky at first...that was my friends case though. Everyone has a different situation. Since you've been spotting, I hope to see you tell us about a temp rise within the next few days! FX!
also, since the mirena affected ur CM, your body could be discharging old blood and cm...? U never know. And have you heard of pre-seed? It mimics EWCM and is sperm friendly. Its suppose to help the sperm get through any "hostile" cm that may be up there some where, u know? I only thought of it because you mentioned the mirena changed CM so pre-seed may help on the days leading up to O. Just a little tip though, if you do try pre-seed, id only use 1/3 of the recommended usage, otherwise it can get a bit too slippery and unenjoyable...lol (sry if tmi!) Tons of dust ur way!!

I can't wait to O so I can go get my 7dpo test done!!! Esp with the last couple cycles being a little wacky for me, I really hope my progesterone is still normal! At least it's an easy fix but I dont want another thing to worry about fertility wise so FX for good results! I haven't even gotten my CD3 test results back yet! I know it's only been a wk lol but my docs usually very quick so I'm a bit antsy. I hope for either a BFP or a scheduled repeat HSG this cycle...we shall see!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Jess, how are you feeling? I'm still jumping for joy over ur surprise BFP!!! Its been well over-due!

I'm doing alight. I get pretty nauseous but I think it's just the high hormones. Someone freaked me out a bit about a molar pregnancy though. How are you mary?

 

[cutieq]

Popping in before church. My temp went up again. I'm so hopeful but don't want to get my hopes up.

 

[mdscpa]

Your chart looks way better than the last two.... FX your sticky is coming... Let's just be positive either way.. It will happen hun...

The next 2-3 days temp is a predictor of what's coming i think... That's when i want my temp to go up...

 

[mdscpa]

Jess, like you, i too got terrified about molar pregnancy due to high HCG but i shrug it off and just be thankful i became pregnant.. For a long time we thought we couldn't conceive. Sometimes, when me and DH fights, I always tell him to better find another woman whom he could bear a child. But that's just frustrations about TTC talking.... If I were you, i'd just ignore it and just try to be happy about our blessing and give all things to God. You've been through a lot and I know this is the right time to have your forever baby.

 

[Jrepp]

I didn't even think molar until someone said it. I would tell my husband to find some fertile as well! He would tell me to shut up! Cutie, your temps are looking great.!


I took an frer last night and the dye barely made it to the control line, it was so faint the test almost looked faulty

 

[mdscpa]

I just noticed Jess that we and our DH's age are the same or maybe i noticed it before. I dont' know.

Just got happy when i saw it.

 

[cutieq]

Jess, I can't blame you for being worried. All the things I've learned will now be in my head. Today, you're pregnant and all is well. Enjoy it!

 

[cutieq]

Afm, I think this is one of my better looking charts too and my boobs have finally gotten sore. Only a few more days before I know.

 

[aidensmommy1]

Dani, I so think you have it!! FX!! I cant wait for you to test!!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Jess, I'm doing pretty good. Trying to keep my head and my spirits up. The holidays seem to be helping, thankfully. .
I refuse to go on any pregnancy boards after my BFP due to hearing comments that may make me worry. I would stay away from them and enjoy every second of being pregnant, u deserve it! I honestly think ur just fine and could either have hugh numbers due to twins OR it could just be a very healthy and sticky single pregnancy. Remember how much the numbers vary in early pregnancy. Some can have super high levels and some super low but both end up completely fine, u know? I know my numbers with Aiden at my 5wk scan were very high on the scale. It could just mean ur having a boy. I read that levels can be higher with boys...or maybe I have it backwards. Anyway, if your doctor doesn't seem worried about your numbers, I wouldn't worry about them. Your always in my prayers!

 

[cutieq]

I tested this evening with a 3 hr hold. Thought I saw something but not too definite. I couldn't take it anymore. If my temp is still up, I will test and post in the morning. My temps have me hopefully but I've seen charts like this end in bfn.

The holidays will definitely keep us busy and our ttc brains occupied!

 

[Querida87]

Hi everyone! Anyone care to comment on my last couple temps? today it stayed where it was yest after having been higher 2 days ago. But it hasn't gone down to the low baseline number so I'll take that I guess.. I didn't need any nausea meds today, but my bb's were.. interesting. The nips kept tingling and standing at attention for no apparent reason. I felt some weird twinges that seemed to be around the top of my uterus or maybe just above it?? I had a good day with the family and am interested in hearing temp interpretations.

 

[mdscpa]

Brianna, i think there are two possibilities just by looking at your chart. I'm no expert but this is my opinion from all the things i read.

First, you may have anovulatory cycle, which means you didn't ovulate despite getting a positive OPK and is usually seen from women with PCOS.

Second, you may have a slow rise and FF is confused when to put your crosshairs (CH).

FX you only have a slow rise and you did in fact ovulate this cycle for a chance to have your .
