[MamaMac123]

Elt - I'm not too super stressed about it....either way I think I ovulating this month which is awesome! Either it happened last Monday or yesterday. I'll know in 1 or 2 weeks At least if nothing happens by my anniversary I'll still have the hope that there's another week to go.

Good attitude...I try to keep positive aswell but I know it can be hard sometimes. I also know how lucky I am to ovulate regularly and that this just happens to be a weird month for me. I just have to remind myself sometimes to count my blessings as some are not so lucky. Keeping my fx for you that this is your month. Lots and lots of to you!

Thanks for the welcome ladies mama I don't know why the cycle was so long. I've not been on any bc since Thomas was born. My first 3 periods after he was born were every 28 days then they were either early by a few days or late by a few days for the next few months. They settled into a 31 day cycle. My last period was june 4th then I didn't have another period until August 11th

 

[IsaacRalph]

Well it sure does look like you ovulated at some point mama! Your opks look interesting though obviously keep on testing them & yes opk can pick up whether your pregnant but as han said it has to be as dark as control line! I got excited few months ago when I got a nearly positive at about 10dpo but it turned out bfn. Really got my fx'd for you & that it happens quickly for you!

My dh is going to do his sperm test tomoz so i'll check the results on sun when i'm next at work, bit of a wait! Hoping it goes ok, eeek! It was really good few years ago

I've got my ultrasound to check things over sometime in Oct but at beginning
I have to have a follow up colposcopy as I had some midly abnormal cells at start of the year! hoping & praying that its cleared up as I don't want to have treatment again had loop excision back in 2004! that will throes ttc right off until next year! my consultant told me it was ok to go ahead to try but i'll be quite releived to get it checked again! if I was preggers it would've had to wait as they don't do it! oh I don't know what a mess, all I want like you girls is a baby!

 

[IsaacRalph]

Ooo girls did I tell you my neice isobel is due on Oct 1st, eeek excited can't wait to get to meet her! X

IssacRalph - fx all is okay with the cells, I've had CIN 1 and 3, 2 colcoscopys and 2 lazer treatments, now have smears every year. I am due one this month but obviously can't have it now until next year. Always worries me delaying it but it's for the best reason. I've been clear for almost 8 years and no signs so should be okay FX

thanks han I had cin 2 & was until this year all clear so it threw me for 6! I was just kinda taking it for granted that it would be ok,first time I've not let it worry me to death & the results aren't great! Consultant said it was a very small area & he thought it would correct itself without treatment, I suppose we'll soon see! Hate those yearly smears but glad its being monitored closely. I'm sure you'll be fine I had to miss mine when pregnant with Isaac but it was all ok after the birth!

Isaac- that's exciting about your niece! And don't give up hope yet. You're still in this game. Hoping you don't have to use those OPK's next month

Mama- I'm so anxious about your tests. I would have already taken a HPT by now. Lol

AFM- according to FF I OV yesterday. But I really think it was Saturday (CD19). I have had so much cm this month from taking Mucinex. I had first + OPK Friday morning and lots of pain on my right side late Friday and through the night. At one point so bad that I woke up out of a deep sleep. Saturday OPK was the darkest. Sunday and Monday were lighter but still very much pos. I felt so much better on Saturday after those sharp pains went away.

I have been so nauseous today. It's been off and on all day. On top of that I'm having to go potty every 1.5 hrs. Guess its time to go back to the dr. This upper resp stuff is kicking my tail...

 

[MamaMac123]

Sequeena - very odd about that long cycle, but guess everyone can have an off cycle here and there. Good luck this cycle!

Isaac - fx for good results for your hubby and for you with the cells. I'm supposed to be seeing a doc for initial consult for a colonoscopy in a week or two. My dad died from colon cancer so my doc said we should start doing routine screening on me. But if I got a I guess I dodge the bullet for a year! Just another perk...can't say I'm excited for that one!

Happycpl - hope you get feeling better soon! Lol at the hpt thing....I actually took one at like 5 dpo just cause...lol so dumb when you know it's way too early...just couldn't help myself as I'd gotten all those Internet cheapies! Haha going to hang tight....was thinking to test in next day or two without much expectation but I think I'll wait till Saturday. Think it's just too early...gonna hold off. Hard though!

Afm - took another OPK about an hour ago and it looked just like yesterday's....I pulled out yesterday's and this mornings to compare and oddly, this mornings has fainted big time and now looks just like the other two! So weird....think it must have been some fluke of that particular OPK because it was odd how the control line was so much darker than all the other OPKs I've taken this week. :shrugs: oh well...made for an eventful morning haha

Umm maybe you had an anovulatory cycle & it just delayed a bit! Or you can get whats called a luteal cyst if you knew you ovulated & this carries on secreting progesterone until it shrinks which can take a while! Hoping your cycles are going to be more settled now

yeah that would be a great outcome mama but if not best to get that screening out of the way! Still not sure what make of your opks?? Be excited to here about your hpt

 

[MamaMac123]

Update - this is interesting....apparently an OPK can read positive if you're preggers! The OPK picks up both hormones...so maybe the OPK getting darker is a good sign??

Oh I know and I will. I'd have done it already but took a long time to get me in to the referral doc. I had my annual check up in Feb and my doc recommended I start getting screened, finally a month or so later the referral docs office called and said they'd scheduled me for a consult....in September! Takes forever to see a doc here!!! When we decided to start ttc I thought for sure I'd end up needing to delay it but then all the complications began so we'll see.

 

[MamaMac123]

So I'm trying not to but i guess I'm symptom spotting a little bit...

Today I noticed a couple things...I had a few moments of vertigo when I was going down the stairs today, I got really bad heart burn late this afternoon. I haven't had heartburn for a long time...and third, I've had to pee quite a bit today. I'm sure I'm doing the classic symptom spot and imagining or hypocondriacing this stuff into my brain haha but just thought I'd share its my first 2ww! Hehe

 

[IsaacRalph]

Mama that's cool embrace those symptoms! I get symptoms every tww so don't even regard them anymore, 12dpo fmu bfn, boo!

 

[Hann12]

Mama that's cool embrace those symptoms! I get symptoms every tww so don't even regard them anymore, 12dpo fmu bfn, boo!

I'm sorry IssacRalph was really hoping for you this month! I know your not actually out yet so fx. At least you still have the other tests happening, though sure they will be fine.

Mama - it's always good to symptom spot! Part of the fun of the 2ww! I'm excited to see when AF comes for you! Are you going to take a hpt today just in case?

Elt - whats your temp done this morning?

 

[MamaMac123]

Mama that's cool embrace those symptoms! I get symptoms every tww so don't even regard them anymore, 12dpo fmu bfn, boo!

Boo from me too I'm sorry Isaac

 

[HappyCpl]

to Mama and Isaac. Sorry ladies. Fx'd for you. You're still not out.

I try not to symptom spot either. But every month there is something that I notice that wasnt there before. Lol

 

[IsaacRalph]

Hey that's ok girls! I'm feeling ok it will happen when its ready i'm sure! Thanks for the hugs. You testing soon mama? X

 

[Hann12]

Just been declined at the maternity hospital of my choice, where I had my DD - it's 8 miles away but there is a hospital (with a terrible reputation that I don't want to go to) that's 6.5 miles away. The one I want said I'm too far away. So upset, heard such bad things about the one I'll be forced to go to!
