The NEVER had a BFP thread. Lets stick together ladies!

[Sleeepy]

I had a rough couple days after they said they think I may have endo .... and you know what, after reading about it (ok, well my hubby obsessed himself with it all day and read everything there is to know about it) I know that's not it. So I don't know what they're talking about - but I know I don't have that. I think I had a cyst, or something else. But it's not endo. I am so sure of that, I'm not even going to think about it or consider it. Silly doctors trying to get me freaked out .... not going to work!

(let's just hope that's the case come the 20th ....LOL)

I have a question about CM though .... I don't get this stuff .... so if you feel any kind of twinges in your ovaries, if you ovulate - your CM will be a certain consistency? Right? Is that how I need to understand this? Should it be super thick, liquidy, what? Is it bad if it's really thick? Or is that how it should be? I don't think I fully understand this.


I'm on CD39. Stupid, stupid long cycles. *sigh*

Im just curious. How is it that you are positive that you do not have endo? I myself have no symptoms but I SAW the endo. They took pics of it during my surgery. Im not trying to be negative but I dont think being in denial is healthy. My cousin has it as well and within 3 months of having a lot of it removed she got pregnant. KNOWING was the best thing for her because it allowed her to be treated and get pregnant.

Because my nurse jumped to that being the cause of what happened within 30 seconds of me telling her, over the phone, of the event that lead me to call her. I had horrible cramps after sex for like 40 minutes - she said, "Well that sounds like endometriosis" after googling and reading up about it, it sounds absolutely nothing like what I had. So I think she should have just kept her mouth shut and not said anything - she could have just said that she'll write that down for the doctor and if it doesn't happen again, they'll just see me on the 20th. Because she wasn't worried about me getting in right that second. It's hardly denial - I am never in denial about anything. I go to the doctor all the time; if it's endo - they'll find it. I don't think it is. I have everything else under the sun wrong with me, and most of the time I am absolutely sure of what I have and I have no problems accepting and working around whatever pops up - in this case, I really don't think that's it.

But, if it is - I'll find out on the 20th and we will figure out a way to work around that too. I just stay positive because there's no point of being negative about it, I get bummed out and deflated from time to time - but, that's not helping make a baby so I just choose to stay positive and all that good happy stuff LOL If it wasn't for my husband pumping me full of sunshine and glitter, I'm pretty sure I'd lock myself in a dark basement and be convinced my life was over. So, it's artificial positivity a lot of the time I think - but whatever - I'll take it LOL

Ok so I'm definitely not symptom spotting this month and not tracking to much of anything all I am doing is taking Maca, Soy, and Vitamins. AF is due to arrive Sept 17th but as of yesterday Sept 8th I have been peeing like crazy. Is it to soon be having frequent urination?....Tired of going to the bathroom

 

[razorbacks]

I know how you feel Leah! but everyone is different, so if it is a symptom, it could be that is just how your body wants to show you!! Be glad it isn't morning sickness! lol

 

[PrayingLady]

Whew finally figured out how to link my chart. I didn't temp much this month as I was so obsessed in July-Aug! but now Im temping in dread of seeing my temp nose dive.

Can you teach me how to link my chart please?

Sounds like a positive sign to me!!

 

[Hope41soon]

I am currently on cycle day 6. And day 4 to 50mg of clomid. This is also my 10th month of trying. Its so hard to get that BFN every month.

 

[LeahJ7712]

Thanks so much for the feedback ladies

 

[J_Lynn]

I need some opinions - so I am currently on like CD42 or something (I am not looking at my calendar, so I can't say for 100% but it's close lol) and 3 days ago I decided to start temping with my new thermometer and my first day was 97.24 at 6:55am - next day, dropped to 96.8, and this morning it was 96.78 .... the day it was 97.24, I also had that weird twingy feeling in my ovaries, and I again was thinking maybe my period was going to start - but after seeing my temp change .... is there a chance I could have ovulated?! I wish I would have been charting just a couple days prior so I could see if there was more of a difference; but I am almost thinking maybe ... just maybe I may have ovulated? I don't know ... I've never ovulated before as far as I know ..... so maybe the HSG and the metformin are helping? But I still haven't started AF and it's been a super long cycle, but sometimes that doesn't mean you won't O ... I just wanted thoughts lol Thanks ladies

 

[luna_19]

j_lynn it's normal for your temp to fluctuate especially when you are getting the hang of temping, also you really need to temp for a few cycles to get an idea of what is going on

What kind of thermometer are you using? I am finally temping correctly fret temping for a few months and I am kind of starting to understand my cycles. Lol

You won't know if you ovulated until you've seen a sustained rise.
The only way to answer your question is to keep taking your temp at the same time every day and see what happens.
If it stays high, then it's possible you did ovulate. Keep temping to find out.

WELL AF got me!!! knew it was coming! Seems my breast can predict a period 3 days away... UGH! called my OB and I now have an apt with an infertility specialist, but not till NOV 6th, since she's booked! The hubby has apt tomorrow to get referred to a urologist. At least I know I'll have some answers soon. Feeling pretty defeated.

I'm using the Walgreens one - this is my 2nd one; the first one died. I don't think it was working correctly after all is said and done .... but this one sure does

Its okay Nurse... My DH and I have been seeing the FS since January and I just had surgery in August after several failed methods... if anything he will pinpoint what the issue is and help you treat it! I might not get my BFP this month, but I KNOW that it is coming...for the first time I feel "normal" and hopeful!

Aww, sounds like you have a wonderful hubby. I myself am a nurse and I agree that she shouldnt have said that. Thats a big one to just throw out there at someone. To be fair, and dont attack me lol, you did say "doctors". Ive had pain after sex from a cyst rupturing. Quite painful
I hope they can figure it out. I do have to say, the only reason they found out both me and my mom have it, was during surgery they saw it. Otherwise they never would have diagnosed it
