TO VALLEY GIRL! NO- AN OVULATION PREDICTOR TEST, SHOWS YOU THE SURGE BEFORE OVULATION, AND CAN LAST FOR A COUPLE HOURS TO A COUPLE DAYS, THAT'S WHY IT CAN EASILLY BE MISSED, CAUSE MOST WOMEN ONLY GET THAT SURGE FOR A VERY SHORT TIME. YOU CAUGHT IT EARLY.YOU CAN GET A POSITIVE IN THE MORNING, AND A NEGATIVE AT NIGHT, AND YOU SHOULD STILL BE OVULATING WITHIN 24-36 HOURS OF THAT FIRST POSITIVE SURGE, SO DO SOME BD WHEN THAT POSITIVE COMES THROUGH, YOU ARE TOTALLY NORMAL! GOOD LUCK!!

Well you can count me out of the running for a BFP, AF has just arrived

Now where did I put that BIG bar of chocolate !

valleygirl · 21/10/2004 15:31

does anyone know if the OPK tests are supposed to continue showing a positive result until one ovulates? last month i had a positive test for 3 days, this month just the one positive on Tuesday - last 2 days have shown negative? Because my leuteal phase was abnormally short last month iam a little paranoid!

Sallie · 21/10/2004 15:30

Twiga and Minnie - best of luck and hope you get a result soon either way. The waiting and wondering are the worst parts of this whole ttc process...
My af this month was really really heavy and lasted for a week - was my third since finishing b/f dd. Hope it settles down soon as left me completely washed out.

Twiga · 21/10/2004 15:20

unbelievably fed up and hacked off, can't figure out what's going on - am off to have a nap for a couple of hours, being tired too is not helping .

Tessiebear · 21/10/2004 15:05

Twiga/Minnie1/me and all others that are feeling like AF is on her way and (((((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) for us! I hope the weekend testers club doesnt turn into one massive AF for us all!

MINNIE1 · 21/10/2004 14:55

Was thinking, (now thats a new thing for me) should'nt beckif be back soon??
Beckif Are you there??

Twiga, Hugs to you.. Were in the same boat cause my af is due on and no sign of her, just have the horrible feeling she is near!!!!! Told her last time to feck of for nine months (don't think she listned!!!)

shely,
Good to hear the test went well, xxx*x bd for your bding....

Twiga · 21/10/2004 14:33

Now I can't even type properly - meant is it too late for this to be an implantation bleed?

Twiga · 21/10/2004 14:31

Welcome to the thread Jules, sorry to hear about your mc in September, hope it all happens for yousoon. there are a few of us trying for no1, so you're in good company and this thread id great x

, af still not arrived although I had very slight pinkish brown spottint this morning - clutching at sraws but is it for an implantation bleed, am on CD31? Really fed up, did a hpt and got a bfn so I reckon af is on her way and my bodys just playing tricks on me again - never had any sort of pinkish brown show without it turning itno full scale af about 5 mins later. No real symptoms either way but have been feeling weepy the last couple of days - think the mc is still mucking with my hormones - it's not fair .

pooka · 21/10/2004 14:29

Well having completely screwed up my dates, have calculated AF due today, but no sign as yet. BFN yesterday with a First Response test, so no chance, I think. Am really disappointed, but this month am going to get an ovulation prediction kit as think my cycles may still be all over the place since dd born. First AF after birth wasn't until about 11 months, and only 3/4 periods since then (dd 15 months). Ho hum!

SHELY · 21/10/2004 14:19

hey tessiebear. maybe af won't come (fingers crossed), sometimes, when you are pregnant you feel like af is coming, cramping and all, but you never really bleed. hey, it could happen? all the best to you!dust to all!

Tessiebear · 21/10/2004 14:03

Good luck Shely - sounds like you have a really positive outlook on everything
Well i have been getting cramping pains all morning and have been trying to ignore them but sense a/f is on way .... have to wait and see

SHELY · 21/10/2004 13:48

boy i will tell you ladies, i took a real good pain pill before my hsg test yesterday, and i got through it with flying colors. i went home, fell asleep on the couch, and when i woke up and the pill wore off, i was soo much more crampy then during, and right after, the test. i thought it would pass, but i was cramping all nite, even into today. i thought that the test going so "easilly", was too good to be true, and iam not a wimp at all! i had my son, who has passed a couple months back bless his heart, w/ a breech birth, vaginally, w/o so much as an asprin, as pain meds. after 32 hours of labor, i maintained a smile the whole way through. didn't even smudge my lipstick lol. they didn't do a c-section, cause the dumb doctors didn't even know that his head was really his ass. they didn't know why i didn't feel the need to push. totally dialated and noone knew it was breech, what idiots!! was far too late for pain meds at that point. anyway, about the test, the doc said my tubes are perfectly open and my uterus is fine to. i got to see it up on the monitor, as if i were looking at a baby. like thats what i really had to see ya know? iam glad iam ok, but i don't know what the heck is wrong with me, which i think is even more frustrating. i know iam timing bd right, i don't know. better luck this month!! better luck to all!

Sexyandhappy · 21/10/2004 13:06

Well am off to do some shopping (buying something expensive I bet!) as I feel a bit sad now - it's obviously hit me that I am not pg and what is my body doing ANYWAY??????
The weather isn't helping of course

MINNIE1 · 21/10/2004 12:57

jules,
Hi again and welcome to the TTC thread, You'll find tones of support here, and have a good vent when you need to.. This has been my home for a while now..

Tania, It's not AF (bitch)!!! she visiting me soon!!!! hope you feel better soon....

jules28 · 21/10/2004 12:32

Thanks LipstickMum - good to know others are going through the same thing. Will watch out for thread 12 - people seem really nice.

Are you coping OK with your loss/ttc?

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 12:21

Jules, Welcome to the ttc thread Am very sorry to hear about your mc in September.
This is a great thread with lovely people posting on it. We're sort of coming to the end of it and I think after the weekend once some people have tested we'll be ttc thread 12, so watch out for the change over!

~~~~~~~~~ babydust for you!

jules28 · 21/10/2004 12:13

Hi guys - I'm new to this - miscarried in September and not really sure what happened. One minute I was ecstatic, next I'm feeling blue!

Was our first attempt but would like to try again, but feeling rather down - other stuff going on - lost a job too, etc

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 12:12

MEN!!!!!

Whata a typical response tho eh Tania??? Bless em!

LipstickMum · 21/10/2004 12:10

MommyD, I think the general feeling from those due to test this weekend was that we would keep this thread going, considering it's been so lucky for 7 people!! Then let's start a new one!! I may not stay post on it, but it still feels odd being on the "due in June" thread , I feel like I know all of you lot so well

Hopefully, you'll all be tagging behind on the "due in July 2005" thread GO GIRLS!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~

Tania2 · 21/10/2004 12:06

Congrads to GM [GRIN] That is great news.. Wishing you the best of luck...

How are ye all today?

Sexyandhappy · 21/10/2004 11:42

Bagpuss- much sympathy from me - you seem as lost as me.... grrr....
I am glad I tested this AM but I almost feel like re-taking it as I can't understand where my AF have gone !!!!
It was a CLEAR negative though... so only deluding myself
Luckily I have 25 OV kits... maybe this might help ???

Bagpuss30 · 21/10/2004 11:40

Yes

Tessiebear · 21/10/2004 11:34
