well I'm out again!
I really thought that this time it was going to be.
I was feeling queazy, my boobs swelled up and because i've had several 25 and 26 day cycles, when it got to 27 I got excited and then 28 and no AF until bed time last night. I', gutted. My mind was playing some tricks on me.
I really think that as I will be 45 in january that this next cycle may well be my last try.

 

[Oasis717]

I'm so very sorry creative, I know only too well the tricks your body can play. I was convinced last cycle it was it. Until af. Xxx

I had a bit of a break through yesterday. My sister and BIL were up for CHristmas and my OH was smitten with their baby. He said "we will try so hard next cycle, because I had really forgotten how wonderful babies are"
Here's hoping!!

Really hoping it works for you.

I am now 2 DPO. At 5 DPO I need to insert a progesterone pessary twice a day, then after 7 days I have to do hpt. If not pg I stop the progesterone, if I am pg then I keep taking twice a day!

Here's hoping 2013 is a good year for all of us.

Hi all, after some advice!

When do you think I OV - FF says 25th dec but I think 24th.

I usually get slight temp rise day before OV and slight temp drop on day of OV.

Sat 22 dec - negative OPk at 10.00 pm, but faint second line.
Sun 23 dec - 8.30 am - positive OPK
Mon 24 dec - slight temp rise
8.30 am - pos OPK
1.00pm - negative OPK and OV pains
Tue 25 dec - slight temp drop - negative oPk

I thought once OV OPk would be negative - any thoughts?

Also had results of uNK test, all was good and no problems there.

Need to start progesterone pessaries from 7 days DPO for 7 days, then do HPT. If pg I have to take for 12 weeks and have also been prescribed clexane when I get Pg to take for 12 weeks, I think it has to be injected and is something to do with blood!

Hi Dancareoi, I'm also very confused re ovulation. I got my first positive opk on the 19th Dec at 10 am, another at 6pm then back to neg the next day, but I continued using opks and got a run of positives again starting on the 22nd and lasting 3 days, meaning I could of O cd 21 instead of cd 16. They advise not using opks after the first pos but if I hadn't I wouldn't have known about this second surge. I test from cd 10 to around cd 25 as I usually get two or three runs of positive opks each cycle. A lady on.another thread gave me a link to new research which has found many women have 2 or 3 waves of lh per cycle and only the last is when ovulation occurs according to them. So now I have no idea if I ovulated late or not. It would impact on when to test with hpt as I could be too early when I test xx

Happy New Year. Sending lots of baby dust for a healthy, happy and lucky new year for all of us.

Hi all, just made the mistake of doing HPT and 9 DPO, know I shouldn`t have done, no surprise to find BFN.

I kept telling myself not to, but couldn`t help it.

oh well, let`s see what happens.

Thing is I won`t get AF this month as i am now on progesterone which I insert twice say, so this stops AF.

i should test on 7th day of taking this, which isn`t actually until Monday when i will be 13 DPO.

There is still hope, but I shouldn`t have done it and so wish now i hadn`t.

how is everyone else getting on?

 

[dancareoi]

My mind is playing tricks, on the HPT i did earlier i kept staring and staring and hoping for a line which didn`t appear/ Anyway kept going back to it amd imagined i could see a line!!!

Anyway had 1 more HPT so thought I would use it to stop me doing any more too early, again I swaer i can see the faintest of faintest lines - Am I going mad? Do I need an eye test?

posted 3 pictures to get your views both were taken 10 mins after. the 1 below is nearly an hour after

Naughty. not supposed to look again after that long!

I can see a shadow where you want me too. You are not on your own there. I would love to hope it's what you want it to be. It's still really early to be getting a result though!

I think we wish for these lines to appear and then convince ourselves they a there!

Anyway need to know for sure, so have just bought some more tests and will be POAS again very soon!

Just POAS again and I don't think there is a line at all now, my eyes were playing tricks on me. It is just a very very very faint shadow, if I was pg it should have been darker today than yesterday.

 

[crazymam]

Oh dear, I have been there so many times wishing for a line then you think you can see one! But still early days for you though so fingers crossed.
I had bloods taken before new year to check hormones etc and all well. but now I am really confused.mt digital clear blue gave threedays of high readings followed by two peaks , first was new years eve. temp dipped new years eve too so looks like I ovulated new years day as temp went up got a high after new years day and then a low yesterday. however my sensitive opk I bought online have shown a very cery strong positive for five days now!! So I am completely confused!
to make it worse fertility friend is trying to say I ovulated on 30th as I did have a temp dip but I really dont I think I did, after all I had not positive opks? and had a second dip later.
