Quick question, when is the earliest everyone would POAS for a natural cycle?? I am not sure if I want to or not but am interested to know when I might be able to!
Mrs O'M, sorry to hear your cycle was cancelled. Sounds like your follicles developed very quickly and took your FS by surprise? Being over 30mm, they would likely have been "over-ripe", so sounds like the right decision under the circumstances. I assume you'll have more frequent monitoring next time to avoid a repeat occurrence?
Kel, if you're willing to risk the uncertainty of "Did I just test too early?" if it's a BFN, I'd start from 10dpo because it's not unusual to get BFPs that early, but not everyone will get one that early (I never have). If you'd rather know for certain from the first test, I'd wait until 13dpo. In both cases, I'm assuming you'd use a sensitive test like the First Response. If you're not using a sensitive test, you really need to wait until AF is late... I got my first BFP (chem pg, so low hcg levels) at 11dpo with FRER (but it was so faint I thought I was imagining the line and it was BFN and only believed it was real after getting a darker line at 12dpo). Last time (normal hcg levels) I was using ICs and didn't get a BFP until 13dpo (but I think the FRER would have given me one earlier).
Jasmine congratulations on your BFP! I'm sorry to hear about the bleeding cysts, hopefully it will all settles down for you soon.
Mrs O'M, I'm sorry your cycle got cancelled hun
Beau, GL with your transfer hun. I always take a couple of days after my transfer and become a couch potato
Kel, those are great symptoms! GL with the cycle hun, I hope it brings you a BFP
Babycakes, hope the surgery went well!
AFM, I got some cramping last night and this morning, but it's settled a bit now. I'm really hoping the progynova did little to disrupt my ovulation cycle and that AF stays away for another few days.
I'm out!!! Bloody AF showed this morning, 4 days early!! I am so angry with myself for allowing myself to think that I could actually be pregnant!!! Just so over this stupid journey!!
So sorry Kel! It's hard not to get your hopes up when all you really want is a bfp. The drugs you take for each cycle certainly don't help with emotions. Big hugs xxx
Thanks for all the kind words, juniper next round I will be monitored from day 5 onwards to hopefully prevent super charged follicles. Feeling major twinges in my sides which I am guessing is o pain. This TTC stuff sucks.
Thanks everyone! I went around to a friends house tonight so I feel a little better tonight. One more natural cycle and then we will do a full stim cycle, kinda hoping I don't have to do needles again and we have a miracle happen!
