Frodi, if your cycles are still messed up you could be ovulating early. I cant remember if you said you use opks or not, but it might be worth using them to see. You never know.

That's interesting about the water retention. My hands were swollen a little last night and i get it quite often. But now that you have mentioned it, it probably does happen roughly once a cycle around a week or so before AF is due. I've never actually thought about it like that before or put two and two together. I just figured that i might not have pee'd enough through the day lol.

According to FF i should be due AF next Wednesday but because this is my first cycle off bcp i don't know if it will be accurate or not. We will just have to wait and see lol. How is everyone today?

I am well...exhausted, but okay over all. I am due for af within the next two days, but probably wont get it since I am on the progesterone gel. I did bleed through it one month, but that month I had only been taking it for 2 days and had started when I was already late for af...tonight will be my 4th night taking it, so I hope that if I did conceive thats enough to help the baby stick

I feel "leaky" though..like how you do right before af..so a little sad.

Do any of you girls know the answer to this

Posted a comment on that thread for you hun, but not sure i can be of much help.

ok well now im on CD14 and the purple clearblue test FINALLY cleared so i tested again and got a smiley face . so i guess i havent ovulated yet .

you got two sets of smileys? wow. are you temping too? thats so weird! I have heard women tht come off bcp can ovulate multiple times in one cycle, but I think thats withint 24 hours. maybe you geared up to o and didnt?

 

[brandonsgirl]

Yeah, i've heard people can be once coming off the pill. Did you stop mid way or at the end of your cycle?

 

[Cutler101]

Just tested on my other pink clearblue digi and got a smiley face too . so i got a smiley on both .

 

[Cutler101]

i finished the pack then got my period like i was suppose to . my dr told me to finish it cause if you stop midway it messes you up even more .

[brandonsgirl]

Ahh ok. Mah might be right, you could have geared up to ov but then didnt?

 

[Cutler101]

Yeah i think im just fertile this WHOLE week cause i got a smiley on CD12 which is really early for me i usually get one today . so im just gonna test tomorrow with the pink one and see if i still get a smiley .

Anyone else ovulate yet or in the TTW ??

I think i have a week left to wait. But idk when AF would be due as this is the first cycle off bcp. Im hoping it will be around or close to what FF suggests. Although of course i would rather it not show up at all because i would be pregnant lol. I just hope AF doesn't play games and decide to stay away even if i'm not pregnant. I would rather know so i can get on with my next cycle if you know what i mean.

I haven't really gotten too many sicky feelings recently but still getting a little dizzy. Do any of you lovely ladies check your cervix? I have started to check to see if it will help me in my next cycle (if i get it) but figured i would start now to try and understand whats high or low for me etc. But its like a guessing game in the beginning. Trying to figure out if its low when you've never checked it before lol. Anyone else find that?

Ive never checked my cervix, so cant be much help there! I have heard conflicting things though..some people say its just way too ocnfusing and can change within 5 minutes so not very reliable. Others seem to swear by it. For me, I found that this cycles combo of opk, bbt, and cm charting gave me a better idea of whats going on.

I ate something heavy this morning and I feel like its just SITTING in my chest..this is gross, but you know how when you belch theres that nasty taste? i feel like I have that nasty taste in the back of my throat. I am starting to feel preg always dangerous though, because the months I am most convinced are the months i get af.

 

[brandonsgirl]

Yeah i know what you mean. I hate when that happens. I get acid reflux at night sometimes and thats just

 

[mah0113]

[Cutler101]

[mah0113]

[Frodi]

HI ladies!!!
Looks like a day away is a day too many! lol
I'm not sure what TTW means Cutler so I dont know if I can help.
And cervix checking?!?!?! I'm not exactly sure what that is, I do noticed usually though how I can tell is when hubby and I BD. Might be TMI, but he usually can't go for a "deep" penetration if the cervix is too high I think, or that may be when it's soft or not. I don't know. It's all just overwhelming me right now. I just dont know where to start.
I'm in the same boat as Mah with the just coming off bcp and AF has still yet to show her face.
I'm trying so hard to wait until monday to test again but I am slowly losing patients

Hi, at my highest I weighed between 330-345. I have since decided to lose weight to improve my chances of getting pregnant. I am now 293 and have started using opks. I finally got a positive opk which never happened before. Me and my husband bd'd the day I got a positive opk and the day after. Will the weight loss and the days we bd'd help chances of conception? I'm at 5DPO and I've been experiencing gas, cramps, and alternating twinges of pain

Hi BBWttc29 - welcome!
First I'd like to say congrats on the weight loss! That's amazing and every little pound is a great triumph!! As for the opks I have no idea what they are, lol. But for sure both things will help with the increasing chances of conception.
Another thing to try for higher chances are totry BDing every other day around time of ovulation, that way even if you are on the day or close to there is a better chance of catching the egg and getting PREGNANT!!!
Hope this helps
