TTC after loss - over 40 - any takers? Our lucky thread - 9 rainbows and 1 BFP

[josie1234]

Thanks Lisa, hi Jan, I'm Jo. It is easier said than done, wish I could just think what will be will be. I was like that before mc last year. I have had 2 lines on opk for last few days. I think i've put my chart on here at bottom, not sure if i've done it right. Positive thoughts to you Jan, would be great to all have good news soon xxxxx

I think FF has calculated wrong ov date, I think your 6dpo is ov date. As that would make you cd14 also. It did that to me last cycle and I know I didn't ovulate when it said I did. I had 5 positive opk days and two peak on clearblue so my temps must have been off. Your body may have just been getting ready to ovulate on first temp dip.

I would post mine but not sure how ?

I am not sure Jan what is happening but we'll see. I don't fully understand the charts and this is only my first month of charting so I am not sure. Only time will tell. It is a full-time job ttc, isn't it? Its amazing how much I didn't know about my body. Fingers crossed that this thread is a lucky one for all of us xxx

Jo, had a look at your chart, interesting one!

There is a chance you could have OV earlier, but its a bit all over the place, lets see what happens over the next couple of days with temps and OPk!

Hi Lisa, I know it is a bit of a strange one. doesn't seem to add up. chart says i ov on cd 8. but opk are positive now. very odd. oh well will keep doing temps and opk. hopefully the next few days may make things clearer (or even more confusing lol). Thanks for looking xxx

So when do you think i ov?

Could be CD 8 and the drop that shows on 6dpo could be implantation drop and temp rise today could indicate a Triasphic (sorry can't spell) temp, which could indicate PG. so not very clear cut.

We have to keep a close eye on things!

ooooohhh fingers crossed. my one day af on 19 jan confused me too but wasn't charting last month. I am near Cambridge,UK. I am really wanting to get excited but best wait few days until i test.

If possible, try and wait until the weekend, I know, easier said than done

I'll try lol.

Well, tests arrived so of course i couldnt wait. BFN. Oh well, wait a few days and see what happens. Hope you are all ok today xxx

Knew you wouldn't be able to wait, i would be the same.

That suggests that you OV according to DPO 6 on FF chart, which puts you at 5 DPO so if that is the case, you could test at weekend, but it may still be a little early, although I did get faint line a 9 DPO and becks got a line at 8 DPO.

Keeping everything crossed for you

Afternoon ladies, Jo I got a faint, faint line on ics at 6 dpo but I dismissed it as an evap! But when the same faint line was there the next day at 7dpo dh went and got me some Superdrug early tests (digis are no good for early testing as they're not sensitive enough and I tested at 8 dpo and there it was, bfp so amazingly my pregnancy was showing up at just 6 dpo. What tests are you using? Xxxxx
Hope everyone is ok xxxx

Everyone is different do dont give up just yet! I have a stinking cold too x

[josie1234]

Hope it doesn't take long for everyone's colds to go. xx

 

[josie1234]

Hi all. Well i have been up for 2 hrs with this cold. Done temp as knew that was me awake. Chart now says i am 3 dpo. Sounds right though as luteal phase is 13 days every month. Oh i dont know what is going on this month. Maybe tomorrows temp will clarify things xx

 

[Oasis717]

Know how you feel Jo, I feel rotten! Xxxx

 

[Oasis717]

Success at the docs!!! Walked in there, explained, he immediately offered to do tests, told me of course I can have them and if there is anything wrong better to know early, he's testing me for thyroid, diabetes, blood clotting disorders, hcg and progesterone levels, full blood count and iron. I left holding that piece of paper like I'd won an award lol. I missed the nearest clinic to me by 20 mins so am gunna go in the morning, hopefully takes 2 working days they said. I told the doc he was a sweetheart! So the other woman doctor could of done them she was just being awful. Will hold off til he's there in future if I need anything else xxx

 

[josie1234]

Thats brilliant Becks. Really chuffed for you. Bet you are glad you saw other doc. What a good doc. Still feel rough. At work 4-9 tonight. Boo hoo. Got cramps today. Xxx

 

[dancareoi]

Jo, don't know what's going on with your chart! Time will tell I suppose. Hope you are feeling a little better now xx
Becks, that is great news. Strange a male doctor agreed, when the female wouldn't, she obviously doesn't have kids!
At least you know you will be doing what you can for your rainbowxx

 

[josie1234]

Ha ha i know Lisa. It is crazy. Oh well see if the dreaded AF comes but i know now not to test for a while. Very crampy today. How are you?? True what you said about male andfemale doc. xx

 

[Oasis717]

Thank you both xxxx she does have children, I just don't think she cares about anyone else Ah well I guess I shall know soon enough, nervous re the hcg and prog numbers xxxx

 

[josie1234]

Hi Jo, I think you have OV, but not sure when!

I had another scan this morning, all good so far. Measuring 8 + 4 which is what my dates show. Going back again next Friday!

Can't relax yet, as still a long way to go.
