congrats cliqmo!!! I hope I'm not too far off.

I still haven't ovulated- that I know of- no ewcm or + opks .. I think I've skipped it this month.. Excited to enter my next cycle for another chance. =)

 

[MEGARICE03]

Please tell me this is a pos opk! It's as dark as the test line has gotten!

It certainly looks positive to me! That's why I prefer the digital ones, though...no guessing! ;-)

Good luck!!

 

[MEGARICE03]

Got some BD earlier! yaya.. lol Fx'd! I've read to bd 3 consecutive days skip a day and bd the 4th day after a
+ OPK. I will attempt this plan and see what happens. I'll also test again tomorrow to see if it gets darker or lighter. Never expected to O on CD23

 

[Calasen]

still late - still Drs checked for infections - nothing there -- and apprently he wants to check for an ectopic??????????

Just a little way to freak us out -- think bodies still just confused

 

[MEGARICE03]

Keep us updated, Calasen! This has been a long and emotional rollercoaster for you . I think I'd cry when I hear of your bfp! GL and fx'd for you..

 

[MEGARICE03]

I tested again this morning and got the same results. I do think it's slightly darker than the control line which is great! Glad to be on track..

 

[MEGARICE03]

Hope everyone is doing well! Must be slightly uneventful for it to be so quite around here lately. I'm excited that I've been testing w opks. I totally had my cycle wrong. I've tested + for the third day in a row so I will once again bd tonight ! I have actually felt cramping all 3 days- which must be a good sign. =) fx'd

Hello Ladies
I am so happy I found this positive and encouraging Thread. I would love to join you.

Here's my story
I am in a 1.5yr old new relationship with the most amazing and supportive man he is my best friend. I have a DD 16 and DS14. DP has no children so we are now TTC.
After 14yrs of no BC I went on Depo nov/09 for 2 shots last one in jan/10. I had bad nausea and heartburn with the Depo so I stopped it. In April/10 I got the Merina, I continued to have the nausea and heartburn and terrible Lt sided cramping with it. We decided to TTC so I had it removed Dec 3/10.

I stared to have regular 28 day cycles with spotting periods in July/10 (the depo had left my system!!!). On day 2 of my period I got the Merina removed. I to take a medication called mistoprostal to dilate my cervix. Wow it cause labour like cramping. I had a 8 day heavy period right after.

I had the lovely hormone crash right after XMAS my boobs were beyond sore for 8 days and 2 bras didn't help. I haven't had a period since. I did spot minimally for 3 days on jan 18th. I have done preg test all BFN. the last one was jan 13 I am going to do another one this week.

I am monitoring my BBT (BBT's are all over the place) and CM/position/texture and nothing shows like I'm ovulating. I hate not knowing what my body is doing. I am constantly trying to figure out everything my body does. Is it Pregnancy, my hormones going back to normal or PMS

DP has ordered online 80 OPK for me and I am anxiously waiting for them to come.

I am on a multivit and vit B complex and going to get chasteberry to see if it helps. I am also going to see my dr next week to see if there is anything else I can do. But I am afraid to try anything hormonal (I am limited in what hormones I can use as my mom died of breast cancer).

Im hoping to get back on track so we can really TTC. I turn 40 this year and have a limited time line.
baby dust to everyone.

welcome honey

Hello lovely ladies, just dropping by to see how you all are??? Big congrats to Cliqmo! Lovely news !
A huge hug to Pip7890, I hope your ok hun, very sad news, lots of love for you, I hope your healing fast.xxx

Lots of newbees here!! Welcome to the most supportive and lucky thread! The beautiful ladies here helped me so much during my ttc, I dont know how I'd have managed without them. The post mirena turmoil was quite something, I had no idea what my body was up to! But thanks to some wise advice and an exceptionally patient OH we got there in the end!! Thank you and ladies!xxx

pdmcd17, hun it sounds like you've done everything right, but unfortunately you cant rush mother nature! It can take a few cycles for your body to settle down into a normal hormonal routine again. Its been run by the 'artificial' hormones in your system for a while and has to start producing and controlling itself again! I'd give it a couple of cycles monitoring things, like your bbt and using opks, and then if there's no clear cycle and your not getting anywhere you can go to your doc with all the info you've collected and ask for advice. I hope it goes well for you and your enjoying the trying!! Keep in touch on here, there's lots of support during the down days!xxxx

Good luck and hugs to all you girlies, fingers crossed for some bfps very soon!!xx
Lots of love.xxx

pdmcd17- Welcome to the thread girlie! Lucy said it all, sometimes mother nature has other plans for us and takes time to get there. I had a 51 day cycle, my last cycle, which was the third after removal. It's just like torture isn't it? Being in limbo is worst than AF showing up. Hang in there and feel free to vent here and give us all the details!

 

[MEGARICE03]

I forgot to mention that my doc was going to give me something to regulate my cycle and I didn't take it bc I started the next day. Maybe you can ask your doc about that!

 

[Calasen]

I give up!!! 2 weeks late again and I O'd yesturday???? Good thing we DTD last night and 2 nights before that - hopefully I caught it this time!!!

Hows everyone? You all been super quiet

 

[sagelola]

Well, I started today...after a 19 day cycle. Which was preceded by a 39 day cycle. This makes the 5th one that we have tried and failed. I have an MD appt on 2/9...hopefully we can figure something out.
