Clairesmummy - I've had lots of ear infections in my lifetime, so I feel your pain! They suck! The ab's will clear you up fast though. I think we've got the room set up just right so no need to change it...........yet.
Possum - Hi hun, I miss all of you guys too. Sorry AF was such a bugger..... here's hoping for a no show this cycle!
Loops - Stay strong hun. Enjoy your parties, and your DH *wink wink*. I wish it didn't have to be so hard for you
Loops~ Hun I am so sorry the wotch is arriving for you I wish you could send her to me so you could get your BFP this cycle, I would be glad to take her away from you. Sending you lots of cyber hugs darl. And like Forshelby said let your hair down darl and have fun at those parties and even more fun with your DH........Hope you are feeling better soon. Thinking of you.
Possum- Hi there, sorry AF has been such a witch to you hun. Hope it all settles down soon for and you get your BFP this cycle. Good luck.
Joeve~ How long until you test darl? I'm glad you think my appointment will come around fast darl cause I feel like I'm gunna be waiting forever for my appointment....lol...
AFM~ Well today is now CD40 and still no signs of AF arriving at all. God this is sooooo frustrating and driving me insane.... If I have O'd I think it would of been on CD34-35 would my BT picked up if I was gunna O at all? Or should I take the BT results and say I haven't O'd at all???? I had very +ive OPT on CD33-35 then back to -ives, temp rise on CD35-40. I'm so confused and so worried why have I O'd in all previous cycles and not this one. I have always got AF on CD26-28 never later unless I have been PG.
Thanks Forshelby ~ surprisingly I am staying pretty strong, must be thanks to you lovely ladies xoxo
Clairesmuumy ~ thats is so gracious of you, means so much to me, thanks from the bottom of my heart. One of us has to get positive news and I reckon it deserves to be you, NO AF for you!! Hang in there xoxo
Ive just gone out and drowned my sorrows in McDonalds LOL - had to do something. Dont want to drink grog until after the BT on Fri - just in case.
Possum - I am CD30 and I usually get AF CD28 or CD29 so I am one or two days late I realised after consulting with FF today! Ha ha not testing can't face a BFN I feel like AF is coming and I have been dashing to the loo every 5 minutes to check as you do.....
Pm......heres to u o'ing and having a good next cycel
joeve...hows the 2ww going....u nust be ready to test now wouldnt u
loops......im so sorry......words just wouldnt be enough....im sorry that it wasnt successful.....sending u cuddles....
Clairesmummy.......so sorry about the ear infection and all ur worries at the moment....ur cycle sounds like its doing some pretty wiered things at the moment....i really do hope u get some answers soon
atm.....well my test is lighter today....so its lookin positive this cycle....maybe just knowing i was going to see my ob relaxed me anough to o......well what ever it takes and even a sixty dollar app....i wanted to bd this monring but hubby is having some kiddie problems so i am hoping he will be in a better mood this arvo or tonight....then one more try the next day and here comes the two week wait for me.........
Loops~You are very welcome hun, I am trying to hang in there I reallly don't even know what's going on with me if I did O the other day or not, or this is just one weird whacked out cycle for me....But love the idea of the maccas to drown your sorrows sounds like a great plan. Hope you are holding up ok darl, thinking of you and sending you some cyber hugs.
Joeve~ How are you going darl? Hope the dreaded AF is staying away from you.
Stoked~ How's things going darl when are you going to test? Stay away wicked AF.
Melster~ Good Luck with your 2WW hope it all comes out trumps for you darl. FX tightly keep up the bding.
AFM~ Ohhhhh I am so over everything right now, if I did O I would be 6DPO today temp is still up a little and still no sign of AF. Today is the day I usually start a little spotting after O time but so far nothing. So either I will have a real LP this cycle or I still haven't O'd as yet. Ah who knows I just wish I knew what was going on with my cycles it is really driving me insane. I only thought the 2WW was horrible but now I'm at CD41 and still no idea WTF is happening with me this is the worst waiting I have ever done in all my life. Give me the 2WW any day at least you know when AF should arrive by and if she don't you POAS. The joys of being a woman.....I'm over it.......lol......
Clairesmummy...you're having a rough time at the moment arent you! It must be very difficult and i feel for you, i would be going insane myself....i am probably worse than what you are LOL LOL.............I guess all you can do is try and distract yourself the best you can and keep busy...is there any hobby, or work, or socialising you can do, any sports, or reading.....just something to keep you're mind relaxed.........they say it really helps bring things on................I have been trying to think what i could do to keep me occupied during the 2ww...and the only things that have kept be busy is drinking (only before the 2ww) and socialising and going to parties..my daughters bday was a bit of a distraction..reading helps to some degree...working helps a little bit....i know the thoughts never really go away but we just need a bit of relaxation..do something nice for yourself, a hot bath or massage or foot massage..that really helped me the other day getting that massage and a massage from hubby and some cuddles....best $35.00 i spent and think it defiantly helped relax me to o...
atm......well i am hoping that i have ACTUALLY o'd....i have had quiet alot of sensation in both my ovaries...kinda a heavy pulling aching type feeling on both sides....hope thats normal and i have actually release an egg...one more bdance tonight and then im on the 2 ww...FUN FUN FUN..im so excited..........NOT!!!!! LOL LOL...i have an achy back and feel a bit sicky, and headachy today..but it could be anything but probably hormones....We go away on holidays next week so that should be VERY interesting..i want to drink but i cant and dont really know the people going and i have to test over there away from my family..and with the skids....so i am kinda not that excited about going!!!!!!!!!! i suppose it is a slight distraction though with all the organising and packing..
Clairesmummy- Oh u poor thing hey just wondering if u know what ur progesterone levels were at at ur last bt?? Or if u can call up and ask? Knowing them will maybe tell u if af is on her.. if u have O'ed or if af is not coming anytime soon. Ive had a few bts to find out these things so i kinda know what ur levels shld be at. xx
Reet~ I have both BT results and levels on my referral for the Ob/GYN. I'm still nearly convinced I O'd the day of or the day after my last BT. The levels in my first BT was FSH-23, LH-9, Oestradiol-134 and Progesterone-0.9 they were taken on CD19 the next lot were taken when AF never arrived so they would of been on CD34 and they were FSH-9, LH-6, Oestradiol-182, Progesterone-3.8. I think this is the day I O'd on as I had the very +ive OPK for 2 days in a row then on this day they were -ive then I had my temp rise 35.9 morning of BT 36.1 the following morning then 36.6 the morning after that and temp is still up today it hasn't dropped any lower than 36.2 since the morning I got the 35.9. I have no idea what my levels should be in my BT results but if you can work them out for me that will be so appreciated hun thank you so very very very much for helping me.....xoxoxox
I popped in before but was still going through my miscarriage At the time so we weren't exactly ttc yet.
I have been back to normal for a little over a week now and would you believe it, I started testing for ovulation a few days ago, just to see when I was getting back to normal and four days ago, nothing, three days ago nothing, two nights ago light positive on ovulation test.... Yesterday dh and I had a day of stupid fighting so I didn't bother to test but it seems I either ovulated yesterday or today, so yay !!!! We will see what happens .....
Just a question though, I looked at a website and it said you are most fertile BEFORE you ovulate.
I am, confused, I thought it was the day before, the day of ovulation and the day after we were aiming for????? Any help ladies..... This doesn't HAVE to be our month as I haven't had AF back since the m/c yet but we will still try ........
Im glad things are getting back on track with you..
Since my miscarriage, i think i could have possibly had a positive opk 15 days after the d&C (but they say the opks could read wrong due to levels and hormones) and then the next two cycles with the opks i had heaps of neg/positives and was 5days late, then the next one i had no positives opks and 8 days early....and now this cycle i got what seems to be a real dark positive, darker than the control on day 12 i think..
I have been reading a bit about it and it seems the advice is, that its best to bd a few days before o around 3-5, then on o and then a day or two after to be extra sure....apparently its best to make sure you get in baby dancing the couple days before o and defiantly the day before o....i just make sure we start at about day 10 to 17 and normally i would have a 28 day cycle...
Clairesmummy, Sorry you are so confuzzled as to what is going on with your body! I feel the same right now! It would be good just to know! Hope you get answers soon!
Melster, I hope you HAVE O'd! Have a great time on your holiday!
Joeve, How are you going? Have you tested yet?
Loops, I am so sorry about your BFN bummer. It's a good idea to focus on having fun with your DH and to party a little bit. That's what i did after my m/c. I guess that is one of the only positives about the situation. It's ok, i didn't feel like i had upset you but i just didn't think i said the most positive words that i could have so i am sorry about that xx
Hello everyone else.
AFM: I went to the Dr today to have some blood tests to see whether i have ovulated this month. I also had a HCG done even though i did test on Mon and Tues but both were BFN. I would have only been approx 8-11 DPO so it may have been too early to tell hence why i had a blood test. I do feel as though AF is on the way though. I am on CD21 so i don't know why i am feeling pre-mentrual just yet as i usually have a 28 day cycle (but the last two have been 25-29) so WHO KNOWS! I guess all will be revealed at my next Dr appointment on Monday!
Mum2ramone~ Welcome darl, sorry it's not under better circumstances though, I hope you find the friendship and support in here as wonderful as I do and good luck with catching your egg darl, FX. Are you using the urine OPTs? My GP told me to use the urine ones as they are more accurate then the saliva one. If you are using them you O anywhere from 12-48hours after your LH surge. Here's hoping you catch you egg darl and you don't need to worry about AF arriving. And I think you are right your most fertile time is right before you O, when you O and not long after you O depending on how long you egg lasts. Correct me if I'm wrong anybody.....lol....But I think that's right.
Sorry Mum2Romone, i missed your post. I have no idea when the best time to DTD is! I am a bit of a rookie with all this stuff.
Just wanted to wish you the best of luck on your TTC journey xx
Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Surge Day > 20 mIU/ml The LH surge leads to ovulation within 48 hours.
So from ur levels i dont think u were going to O because ur LH hadnt gone up to what they were meant too...hmmm.. but i am definitely no dr!!
This is for progesterone levels-
Follicular phase <1.5ng/ml
Mid-Luteal Phase >15 ng/ml
Thats not very helpful tho! If you could get a bt now it would be good to see what ur progesterone levels are doing.. if u did O they shld be quite high until af arrives and they go down again. But yeah i guess just wait til ur gyno. appointment..im sure they will be a lot more helpful! My dr had no idea really what was going on with my bt's.. as soon as my gyno looked at results tho he knew exactyly where i was in my cycle and knew what needed to be done to hurry things along.. such as taking progesterone tablets.
Sorry i cant help more...waiting is just the worst hey! After my m/c i didnt get af at all.. was still waiting 10 weeks later.. i went thru so many pg tests... but it was just my body being stupid...grrrr!
I used the urine ones, .... I got a second line but not as dark as the control line, but the three days previous nothing, so am I about to ovulate if the line isn't as dark as the control line? Or am I ovulating now, like today since it was two days ago that I got the light positive line,should I test again to make sure it's darker or would that just be a waste, should I just assume, that the test two days ago, means I will definitely be in the next few days so just dtd already lol....
Thanks Reet it was helpful I think I will just wait now to see the gynae and see what he says about it all. Should I do another HPT before I go to see him though do you think just in case??????
Do persies later need a shower and bath DD and get dinner cooking.
If I have O'd I think it would of been on CD34-35 would my BT picked up if I was gunna O at all? Or should I take the BT results and say I haven't O'd at all???? I had very +ive OPT on CD33-35 then back to -ives, temp rise on CD35-40. I'm so confused and so worried why have I O'd in all previous cycles and not this one. I have always got AF on CD26-28 never later unless I have been PG.
