Feeling horrendous today, cramp, emotional, headache, feel sick... hate AF!!!

I'm thinking about taking a step back from this thread for a bit, I'm finding things really hard, maybe until we've had our appointment with the fertility clinic so we know where we stand, I just feel like we're in limbo at the moment. I know I should probably move over to the other thread for those struggling to TTC but part of me is still in denial about it all and by moving to that thread I'd be admitting that it's not happening for us. Plus I don't want to leave all you lovely ladies

chocoholic chick, its ok to use both threads. I know what you mean about limbo. No idea why it's taken months to even get sent an appointment.

Hello there - hope you're all OK. Thanks code for doing the lists, sorry your little one is in pain tinks, can the GP/pharmacist recommend anything? Sorry things are tough going PM. Welcome to new people, sorry if I've missed anyone, only had chance to read through the last page.

A quick question - I've had positive OPKs two days running (last night and the night before), both strong lines the same colour as the test line. Is this possible or is there likely to be something wrong with my tests? I was thinking that if a positive is an indication of ovulation within 12-36 hours, it's feasible to have more than one positive... but I have no idea.

Also, can you get evaporation lines on OPKs? My first positive test took ages to come up (both the test and control lines), so I'm wondering.

Sorry to ask so many questions, just trying to make sense of the OPKs etc. No other ovulation symptoms annoyingly, so having to go by the tests.

TIA

It's possible to get more than one positive on an opk, because the LH takes varying amounts of time to leave your wee, that's why it's recommended that once you get a positive, you stop testing. hth.

Code I'm on CD18 and I think 4 DPO. Haven't been here for a while as we had two months of drama and sh1tty things happening and I lost the will to bother trying for a while.

I'm probably going to stay mostly on the other thread as that's definitely where I belong, we're waiting to see the FS now at the end of the month but there's definitely going to be treatment involved, most likely for both of us. But will pop in now and again.

Thanks - I only tested as I wasn't 100% convinced about the first one. Please can you put me at 1DPO in that case? Thanks

Help me ladies! I don't know what's happening. Im CD6 after a cycle with a very short but "normal@ for me luteal phase. My temp dropped in first day of AF but went straight back up and stayed there. Confused I (foolishly) poas and it looks like a TLP. Can you see this?



My AF seemed normal, bright red blood, cramps, pretty light but that's normal for me since getting off contraception.

Was it a chemical? I'm so confused

Sorry for my self indulgent post, hugs to those who need them.

claretsgirl

Good morning all!
Hope everyone is ok. Many thanks for lists code, you are one in a million.
Wangdoodle, unfortunately my TTC knowledge isn't up to much so I cannot advise. Hopefully someone else can help. Hope you're ok given the confusion.
As for me, I haven't forgotten/not realised what day I am. I don't know what is happening and should really test. For about two weeks now I have been feeling like AF will arrive but now that seems to have stopped and I don't really have any symptoms. I seem to be starting with a cold and have a bit of a temperature which could be blurring things for me. I will try and get a test in town later and update. My last few cycles have been 28-30 days, before then they could be about 35-38 days so it could be that they have just increased again.
Does anyone else get they are frightened to test cos until then there is always hope?
Love and hugs to all. X

Wg no advise I'm afraid, sorry. Does look like a tlp to me.
