Tk 1999,
when I came off the pill the end of march it ook 76 days for Af to arrive, then the next was 60 days. Both of those cycles the Doc didnt think id ovulated by looking at blood test results and then the next cycle I fell pregnant and lost it. It looked like id actually ovulated right on time, so very weird. The gyno thinks my cycles could go haywhire again so said I could be waiting awhile. I know what you both mean bout waiting for everything, its ridiculous. I get terrible cramps when I have Af but now I really want it regulary to get preg and I dont get it!!!
erybery,
my oh my... very long cycles then! My first cycle following Implanon removal was 10 weeks (or 70 days) to the date - I don't really remember the last cycle I had whilst the Implanon was in (think it was March 08) so rather than counting from then I just counted from when the Implanon was removed so I have no idea how long it will take for my next cycle, I am currently CD13 so will wait and see if by simply getting AF back all has gone to normal.
Has anyone been able to give you any sort of indication when she might return or is it a matter of wait and see? Maybe the tablets Pooley is taking might be of use to you... Virex... I don't know much about them but Pooley has said they are discussed in the BB forums.
Aren't we a bunch of stressed out, impatient mothers-to-be!!!! Our bodies are truly screwed up. A reminder today of how easy it is for others was my sister-in-laws daughters christening. (I didn't go though but hubby did)
She conceived her first within 3 months of being married, then popped another one out 20mths later. THEN no.3 18mths later. She's only 24!!! Anyway, I don't dislike her because of her children, her personality is enough.... That stuff just adds fuel to the fire.
Anyway, that's my whinge for the day... TK1999 I'm guessing CD13 is close to the time that you should be ovulating?? My AF lasted 5 days so I'm not quite sure when I will be expected to ovulate??? CD14??? Any ideas?? Or do I just go crazy DTD in the next week and a bit?
I'm sure hubby won't mind. Anyway, hopefully christmas will keep us slightly distracted in the next couple of months.
erybery, how did they diagnose your PCOS? Ultrasound and blood tests?? I am waiting to see whether my AF comes round next cycle or whether I may have PCOS. I had a ultrasound in Aug that showed cysts and then the blood tests also came up positive but a recent blood test apparently showed no indication of PCOS, so as you can see I am still very confused atm.
Pooley, well we are mostly told that ovulation should be CD14 or so but I don't think my temps are showing anything of any significance... so will wait and see. I think CD14 ovulation is based on a 28 day cycle and I don't really know how long my cycle is going to be. It is that dreaded unknown again.
We are both in the unknown re cycle lengths but if you have a significant rise in your temps then it may be ovulation so like crazy around any temp rise! That is what I plan on doing anyway... DP doesn't know I am temping (well I haven't told him) so if I see any rise I will just be enticing him any which way possible and I don't think he would mind either!
God christmas, it is fast approaching, I remember when I had my Implanon out I was thinking yeah, I am going to be able to announce I am pg by christmas (ie the 12 week wait would have passed) but alas the TTC is taking longer than I had anticipated!
He he It just makes me cranky that men don't have the same rubbish to deal with!!
I thought with temping you're looking for a low in the middle of your cycle, that will be followed by a high? Oh my god, do I even know what I'm doing??
How is it that you are keeping the temping a secret??? You must be very sneaky! I'm very obvious with mine. Though I am sneaky about coming on here because hubby thinks that I'm obsessing. Poo poo to him tonight 'cause he's not here.
I've got to talk to someone because he'd get sick of it if i gabbled to him about ttc rubbish, so I'm really doing him a favour!!
Re temping, from what I can gather you have low temps and then once they spike and stay that way for a few days that is ovulation and then the temps may lower after but it is better if they stay high as that can indicate pg is underway. Mmm maybe I should read up on it a bit more so I know what on earth it is I am looking for.
DP leaves for work before I even attempt to start waking up so I have the thermometer next to the bed but he doesn't notice it (or he has and hasn't mentioned it) I record it in my book and then onto FF later that night, I am a part-time uni student so am able to covert my FF entries and BB online time. DP also thinks I am obsessing slightly but as I have said to him several times I like to feel in control of some things and even more so for things I really cannot control.
Lol it amazes me how similar we are - I also feel that I am better talking (typing) these TTC issues out rather than knawing DP's ear off to no avail. Yep they should both consider themselves very lucky that we are sparing them the intricate details of TTC.
Indeed, we could be annoying them much more than we really are!! Just recently my DH (I hate using that shortcut) has started asking about how my temping is going and what it means.... and when we shold be DTD, how strange!! NOT Anyway, I think his mind is not quite on the long term goal that mine is right now, but that's men for you.
My temp dropped today to the lowest that it's ever been. I hope that's a good sign, below 36. It was never that low before AF returned. Don't know if I'm being anal but I guessestimated a cycle length and added it to an online ovulation prediction website and had a look. So hopefully IF, and that's a big IF my AF is meant to return then I have something to plan for in the next couple of days.

I think Pooley has described us in one!!
