I also use cbfm...great investment.

 

[dalismom]

what is cbfm?

Lulu, it sounds promising still! fxd!

New wifey- that is good news! I don't know much about pcos, what were your symptoms?

 

[new wifey 83]

my cycles range from 26 -33 days this month got it on day 30 was a normal period at first 2 and half days of good bleeding then got lighter and gone by day6 as i say nrmal for me but small bit of bleeding day 7 brown discharge day 8 9 and started blleding again day 10 full period day 11 and 12 only very light today day 13 when i wipe.this has never happened me before so went for ultrasound yesterday all clear and bllods normal.my doctor reckons its stress and worry causing it??

 

[x lisa x]

CBFM - clear blue fertility monitor, grate investment lets you know up to one week prior to ovulation so u know when to get busy

 

[LuluSS]

Lulu if temp is still up its looking good!!


got results of ultrasound and all is clear so if something was wrong would it show up on that??

Not necessarily. For me, my ultrasound was normal, but my blood work showed PCOS. Also, it can be vice versa.

my bloods came back normal too all levels fine

Hmmm, well then as far as things like PCOS, you seem to be in the clear. But usually after trying for a year, they might do a procedure such as an HSG to see if any tubes are blocked, etc.

Was trying to wait until I was a week late but caved in and tested this morning. BFN So confused as my period has never been this late before.

 

[dalismom]

Mads- ((((hugs)))) I am sorry! I know that that BFN when your late is the worst! I had the same thing last month. It is just an awful feeling! Can your Dr take you progesterone level to see what is going on? Mine did last month bc I was 4 days late and it showed my levels had dropped back below 2 after O so I knew AF was on its way- 2 or 3 days later, sure enough she showed up. If your level is high that might be good news, or you O'd later than you thought maybe?

Good luck to you and baby dust!!!

hey im 26 and on my 9th month of trying and it is a nightmare. everyone seems to be pregnant except me also from Glasgow.. il be your buddy..x

Aw I am sorry!

I am going through the same thing. But I don't even know if AF is late or not because I don't even know when I O'd, if I even did. I have been testing since last week and all BFN's

 

[sandoval_star]

Hey Cheryl! Welcome to the thread. Whereabouts in your cycle are you now? I'm with you, feel like everyone around me is pregnant and it happened so easily for them. Hopefully we won't have to wait much longer!

Lulu - any luck with the testing? x

 

[LuluSS]

No luck yet. I tested last night and this morning and still BFNs! My body likes playing weird cruel tricks on me!

 

[snowflakes120]

Welcome new girls!

I hear everyone on the pregnant woman all around them and that is happens so fast for them.

Sorry about the BFN's Lulu and Mads. Hope that it turns into a BFP soon!

 

[LuluSS]

I know AF is coming in the next couple of hours. I just started getting "those" type of cramps. Not the mild twinge type ones, the real period cramps. And I get HORRIBLE AF cramps too. My doc things I might have endo. Well, time to pop the pain killers now to somewhat avoid the pain

 

[dalismom]

Lulu so sorry to hear that! I hope she stays away!!!! Our bodies are so funny aren't they? We know them so well sometimes and other times we are second guessing them.....at least that is how I am. I really hope your AF stays away and your BFP comes really soon!

 

[LuluSS]

Thanks, but the is here.

Now onto the next step. Going to set up an appointment with the fertility specialist for me and DH. If I can ever get a hold of her! It has been phone tag for the past 2 weeks! I am not ovulating. I was holding out hope that I did, and my temps didn't catch it. But I know that isn't the case. Hopefully Clomid will do it for me, or IUI. I wouldn't be able to do it if I had to go through IVF. The U.S. insurance companies do not cover IVF at all. They barely even cover infertility treatment, if at all!

 

[dalismom]

Lulu- hugs! I am sorry hun, I hope you get some answers really soon! My Dr put me on Clomid last month, I did O on it but too late I am afraid. I am sure it will work for you! Keep your head up, we are all in this together!

How did you like Clomid? Did you get any bad side effects from it?

 

[dalismom]

I dont want to jinx myself hahah, bc I am going on 100 mg next time but the worst side effects I had were a few hot flashes and a headache on the night of the first pill. That was really it for me. I have heard HORROR stories but I was pleasantly surprised. I know everyone is different and every round is different but I am hoping and praying for us both to have good cycles go around. ( I have a feeling I am out this month, just instict I guess) Anway, keep me posted on what your doc says, I think that the Clomid will help you at least O! That is the fist step, right

 

[LuluSS]

Ah sorry, I don't want to jinx you!

That is good though that you have had few side effects. I have bad luck, and will probably be one of the one's who gets every side effect. Yes, I know, I was trying to have a positive outlook on this whole TTC journey, but since AF is here today, I am giving myself an excuse to be negative today! hahaha.

Do you know if you ovulated at least this cycle?

I think when I start Clomid, I will do other things as well, such as preseed, etc. just to increase chances even more.

Do you have PCOS?
