Quick question for you guys. How soon after missed AF can you get a blood test from a doctor? I called my dr, and waiting for them to call me back.

AF has been MIA for a couple days now - Im on cd 44 which is my longest since i started met.

here's why i want to know: since may 3rd i have been getting positives and negatives on HPTs. My OPKs were all over the place this cycle. AF showed on mother's day, so i thought i was out, and that my + hpts were just evaps or something (they're wondfos). a friend suggested keeping a couple of the hpts for about a week, cause only true positives are still there, and keep their color. I now have I think 8 positive hpts, but im also told certain things can trigger a false positive.

I feel pregnant (but that's normal around AF time). im sleeping 10-12 hours a night and still tired. i have weird cravings - right now its olive "juice" and blueberry fig newtons. Yuck, i know. bbs are fuller, heavier (I swear they grew!) and i have a weird feeling in my uterus. twitches, i guess. not cramps, and not painful. sometimes it feels like AF is coming, but not as intense.

I dont think keeping HPT's for a few days will do anything. I think once the chemical reaction happens thats it its happened.
A doctor can tell alot more from blood samples than urine so best off getting a blood test done.
I too have felt odd this last week. I had cramps for 4days last week and Friday they were localised to my bottom left side. They had gone by Saturday afternoon. I have had a thirst which I cannot quench and I funny craving for cappacinnos - I dont even like coffee, I tried cappacinno a few years back and thought it was ok but recently I wanted to drink it ?? I have been awfully hungry so I eat and then feel hungry again 2 hours later.
Ive had very wattery cm and I feel erm....horny (eeek tmi!) so I either ov'd late or my body is doing so crazy things to me!!
I am cd38 today.

I dare not take a hpt as Im scared it will be negative then I will be wondering why this is happening?? I will see my doctor on Thursday and discuss matters then ask for a blood test.

I was sat at my desk in work today and I suddenly felt flutters on my lower left side. It was like a bubbly effect, not painful and it went away after around 10mins. Its twinged every now and again ever since.
Knowing me it will prob be wind......

does MIA mean missing in action when refering to af?

i didnt think it would either.
ive read that some women just dont have enough HCG in their urine to trigger a + hpt

sounds like you're in the exact same boat i am. i have the weird cravings, and the funky cm. i did a cervix position check - its low, hard and very closed!

im now cd 45.


yeah, dont take a test. it just drives you insane in the end.

i have the *same* thing. i have this weird feeling, but its not always just one side, but mostly the left.

yeah mia is missing in action.

My cervix is odd. I check it the same time each day. One day it feels low and hard and closed, the next day its soft and slightly open and then I can barely reach it for days.
DP walked in on me checking my cervix once and he thought I was getting myself off

mine is too. i check it the same time, same position. for the last week its been the same - hard, low and closed. not like it is before AF shows.

thats why i make sure nobody's around when i check mine!

Im back. My surgery is on my doorstep.

I have pcos, pure and simple pcos
Im in for a hormone function test tomorrow morning for blood work to see how broken I am

I feel so crap. Im crying as I type this which wont do me any good at all. I need to get a grip.

She said come back in october if no baby then I will be referred to FS for treatments and stuff.

She said the pains I have been feeling could be my ovaries waking up from being on bcp for so long so lets hope thats true.

 

[MrsC10]

Sorry to hear that mumface. Now is the time to do all the research and find what works for you xx

 

[xmaddeyesx]

Hi ladies, got my yesterday. Just one cycle after my m/c. Good luck to you all.

 

[mumface26]

Thanks mrsc10 il will. She suggested i buy opks so i did. Would it be if i tested tonigjt or would it be too diluted?
Congrats madeyes thats brilliant!! Xxxx

 

[mumface26]

I got opk from bodycare for £2.99 for 5 strips. I cant afford the dearer ones at the mo as dp isnt paid til next weds. I hope these will be ok.

Xxxx

 

[Katerz]

Mumface go on eBay for the cheap opk tests you can get looaaaaads.

At least you know what is wrong and know that something can be done about it.

Xxxx

It isn't the end of the world. It just means that you are going to find the combination of things that will help you get a baby in your arms. There is so much to try. Don't get discouraged.

I am only taking one thing my doctor said to try but once I am at the obgyn I will get more tests done and we can figure out what will work.

Sony worry hun we are right here with you.

Looking for some advice ladies please. I'm on CD12 today and been taking fertilaid for two weeks now (started the Friday before AF showed on the Sunday). When I went to the loo last night, I noticed some clear CM but it wasn't the usual amount I get around 'O' and was still a bit 'clumpy'. Today, I've had small amounts everytime I've been to the loo. It's stretchy, but there's not enough of it to tell for sure. Do you think ovulation may be just around the corner. I took an opk last night and it came up very quickly and was darker than I was expecting (although not as dark as the test line). I'm normally at least another two weeks away from 'O' so hoping that these little symptoms are a good sign. I've had twinges all day. Not painful or achey, but I can tell that something is happening 'down there'. Any advice?

I would say that you should be bding every other day and keeping track of what your body is doing. They always say that sometimes it's best to get a jump on the bding before you ovulate.

Its hard to say isnt it?
My cm varies from lotiony one day, watery the next.....although the last two days I have had thick clear ewcm with just a little white in it and my cervix feels very low. BD'ng hurt a little last night as I think as my cervix was low he was hitting against it....tmi i know but anyone else felt that?

Does a dark opk represent ovulation?

 

[mumface26]

Ok my last shift at work starts at 5:30 until 8pm. (home run yippeee)

I am going to limit my liquid intake as I want to do an opk when I get home so I dont want to dilute it.
I have the instructions and they are pretty straight forward.

I just need to ask are these things ok to use with pcos? Because our bodies try to ovulate will it still show we are fertile?
My cm is still clear and stretchy I was thinking of uploading a picci of it but maybe tmi!

I feel so tired and grubby! I showered last night after my sickness episode and again this morning but still feel very grubby indeed. I still feel sick too. Managed a slice of pizza from works canteen.
I am so tired. I wish I could go to bed and sleep

 

[mumface26]

By the way I will be great aunt in 4 weeks! Maybe two as shes breech at the moment so she may need a section in 2 weeks if she hasnt moved round.

Im so excited!
But at the same time rather emotional. I get teary when I think about it.
OMG i think I will go to bits when shes born, not because I want my BFP because I will be happy and yes partly because my bfp may be long way off.

Oh well, I will offer my babysitting services for practicing lol!

 

[ghinspire22]

I feel emotional today.

Everyone is having babies all around me and I'm not.

I am not.

I want to but want and actually having is two different things right now.

I just feel lost and upset.

Like positivity it slipping through my fingers.

 

[sue_88]

Well I had my doctors appointment today with my GP to discuss blood results and scan.

Definitely polysystic, which was already confirmed at scan, and I am also not ovulating.

My progesterone level on day 21 was <1. And I think it's supposed to be about 86.

I'm beyond gutted, I can't believe it. Not even ovulating.....I've been BD'ing every month for the last 18 months with absolutely no hope of having a baby.

Waiting now for a referral to infertility specialist........god knows how long that will be.

my OH is so quiet, he's so sad. He's got to go for Semen analysis which he's already made the appointment for bless him.

All this prodding and poking is crap!
I will be having a pcos blood test tmorrow to see where my levels are at.
We will all get through this together.
Im cramming overtime in at the mo so me and dp can go on holiday and relax! Xxxx

It will happen for all of us.
I was thinking today i can either worry my ass off and make things worse or just get on with life and get on with things.
You seem to be a very positive person what with your running so lets focus on something positive.

We will have bfps come the new year!!!
