    Huge hugs BB1984 for AF
    smiley_hug.gif
    Looking at your previous chart, and going by cm, I think you must've ov'd at around CD16.
    The temps seems pretty similar all through your cycle.
    Do you have dry mouth? Do you sleep with your mouth open?

    Thanks QQ :o

    I don't think I have a dry mouth, or sleep with me mouth open - but I could be wrong! I have had quite disrupted sleep lately - keep waking up in the early hours but not waking fully, tend to doze straight back off again without moving or anything. Maybe I should force myself to temp as soon as I wake the first time, but then the times will be all over the place :o

    If I did ov on CD16, we didn't BD at the right time really - I think that was when DH hurt himself at football...! :eek:

    Ho hum, another cycle here we come - will start taking agnus castus now I think.

    Night night all xxx
    :love:"Live long, laugh often, love much":love:

    When's the wedding? Have a great time:)

    16th July...7 weeks Saturday...eek!

    Stressed, scared,excited! Maybe that's why AF still hasn't arrived :o

    Does anyone else "prepare" for AF? I have been having pads in for weeks now as I don't want to get caught out and I have gone through packs and it hasn't even come yet! I swear, if I didn't put in tomorrow I bet AF would arrive :p

    Congrats Amanda :T

    Kim- I hope it's good news after your next blood test :)

    Congratulations to Amanda! :j

    Kim, I hope the next bloods come back much higher and it's just been a shy positive for you :) Let us know how you get on.

    :wave: to everyone else.

    Good morning:wave:

    CD13, and no sign of ov:whistle:
    I think my hormones are still pretty much screwed up after the IVF, so I won't ov before I leave DH at CD17:o I'm trying to hurry it up by doing exercises etc, but no luck:o

    Can I ask the ladies with pcos if you use opk's and where to buy from. I have a cbfm, but it's not really good with pcos or clomiphene, which is where I'm expecting to be after my referral. I get high virtually every day on the cbfm:rotfl: so thought I'd start opk's if they'll work for me......ta muchly! :D
    Like GG said, I think you need a lower sensitivity OPKs (hormonal effect of PCOS). Also with Clomid, you should only start using OPKs from 3 days after the last pill.

    As GG says she uses 40miu, perhaps you could try that?
    (I use bog standard OPKs).

    They said my HCG levels (if that what the hormone is called) has come back high, which in theory should suggest a pregnancy.....

    But my levels are at approx 181 when infact they said they would be looking at about 700-800 normally so I have to go for another blood test tomorrow morning, if they come back higher then im pregnant, if not then I have to see a doctor
    It could be that you implanted late, and your hcg has just started to rise. Or it could be an ovarian cyst which can produce hcg or ectopic...

    Are you getting another hcg test done soon?
    If the pregnancy is normal, then the number should doubles every 48-72hrs.

    Good luck, hope it's just a late implantation/late ov:o
    16th July...7 weeks Saturday...eek!
    Aww... exciting!:j
    Stressed, scared,excited! Maybe that's why AF still hasn't arrived :o
    Very likely:o I ov'd way late on my wedding:o
    Does anyone else "prepare" for AF? I have been having pads in for weeks now as I don't want to get caught out and I have gone through packs and it hasn't even come yet! I swear, if I didn't put in tomorrow I bet AF would arrive :p
    I don't prepare as mine always starts off with spotting.
    But I always carry a pad with me just in case:cool:

    Kim- I hope it's good news after your next blood test :)

    Charlie, I just wear a pantyliner (which I do all the time anyway) so it'll catch the start of AF if she arrives then I keep some pads with me so I'm ready when/if I need them.

    Still nothing here, 2 more sleeps till testing day but am fairly convinced its more to do with my body getting used to being off the pill than anything else! I refuse to get too excited yet!

    We've been invited to our friends wedding in Thailand next year but I'm hoping we'll be awaiting an arrival by then!! If not we'll probably see if we can get a late deal. I'd really like to go though!

  • Morning Ladies,

    Congratulations on all of the BFP's this month :j

    Unfortunatley i am out this month, AF arrived this morning to wake me up lol strangley enough it hasnt bothered me as it usually does - i tend to be upset etc

    just an update from me - now CD1 my second blood test came back fine and now OH has to book in for SA and then i can make my appointment at the hospital for all my tests....i think i am gonna start posting on 12+ board aswell as this as i need information on what happens next.

    the SA is just rountine as he has already got a child but they wont start my tests without it

    can someone post me a link for OPK's - i bought some orginally and now cant find the seller and the ones i bought last time were rubbish i didnt even get a line on it although i know i ovualated because of the blood test

    Many Thanks

    Hi Guys, back with an update...

    Had a palava when called the doctors today for my results, they said they didnt come back 'normal' - What is normal?!

    They said my HCG levels (if that what the hormone is called) has come back high, which in theory should suggest a pregnancy.....

    But my levels are at approx 181 when infact they said they would be looking at about 700-800 normally so I have to go for another blood test tomorrow morning, if they come back higher then im pregnant, if not then I have to see a doctor

    Im so confused! Thought it would be a yes or no answer so another 48 hours to wait for results, making myself ill

    I know I shouldnt but I looked up the internet and seen things about etopic pregnancys

    Any similar situations?

    Good luck everyone:T

    K xx

    ((hugs)) I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that your HCG levels go up and you get BFP!

    I know it's hard but try to stay away from google - you will only worry yourself.
