Hi yorkie i have had a couple of cycles where either i didnt ov or the opk missed it. do u chart too?

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 18:42

I reckon I was anovulatory last cycle but all textbook this time yorkie on temps & OPKs. I think the occasional month is ok. I am on train home with two groups of women on hen dos or birthdays guzzling booze - truly horrific!

yorkiebilb · 03/05/2013 18:55

Okay, thanks ladies. I normally temp but it was sending me a bit crazy so I stopped this month. However, I did take it this morning as a one off and my temp was still v low so I know I haven't ovulated. Do you think I should still get my blood tests done next week anyway?

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:24

Aaaaargh! I pimped & there is a definite line now. OMG! Pls don't hate me berries as I still can't quite believe it! It's about the same as I got on CD12 or 13 of my OPK when I Ov'd on cd14. ICs are reliable right? I've not used them before...

barkingtreefrog · 03/05/2013 19:25

I don't think I ovulated last month. This month I've been taking b6 to try and lengthen my luteal phase but I've been crap at remembering to take it . I pimped with an opk a couple of days ago but nothing. I should be ovulating around now, it's usually cd19-22, but no signs as yet. Strange thing is I don't care, I have totally lost interest. I'm just waiting for my hsg and scan then fc appointment. I'm back on the again as well, don't see the point after 17 months sober for nothing!! Not going crazy, but not denying myself a couple of glasses anymore. I'll be a good girl again when I get clomid .

frog I so hope that's a line!!! On our way (v. v. slowly) to Wales for the wkd, I'll be straight on here to check for news when I get reception on top of a hill somewhere!!!

yorkiebilb · 03/05/2013 19:25

Woo hoo frog very exciting news!

barkingtreefrog · 03/05/2013 19:26

cross posted - oh wow!!!!
A line is a line as they say
Have you told DP now?

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:27

Oh & sorry to ignore you Yorkie I'm just a bit shocked. Others who have had the tests probably better position to answer anyway. Where is DP when I need him? He's not home for another 45min!

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:29

Oh & bugger I can't have any wine to celebrate!! Now feel that have had a couple of glasses already this week.

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:34

Trying not to get too excited as I am only 11DPO so there is still plenty of time for it to all go wrong I guess. Am v v scared now.

barkingtreefrog · 03/05/2013 19:41

When would AF be due frog?

yorkie I was trying to reply to you but went completely off the point... I'd definitely go for the tests, if you haven't ovulated this month it will show up and they might refer you quicker?! Can't remember where you're up to, sorry. I need a list!!

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:48

My cycles are a bit irregular & have been between 25 & 34 days over the last 6m when Ive been monitoring. However I suspect that the 34 day one which was when I temped & OPKd last cycle was anovulatory & I think the 31 day one before that may have been a chemical pg. I never tested positive but didn't use ICs & I was totally convinced with so many symptoms. FF predicts AF on Mon which would be CD28. I do however have a family history of twins which apparently give earlier BFPs - eeeek if so!

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 19:51

Oh & first 4 cycles were between 25 & 29 days. I'm CD25 today.

Tallyra · 03/05/2013 20:14

that's very cool frog, u really have my fingers crossed for you!!!

MrsB00Mbastic · 03/05/2013 20:18

Oooh Frog AMAZING! A line is a line is a line, it's a pg test right? So doesn't matter how dark line is, any line is a yes - you're tadpoled up! Congratulations!!! (And I SO hope it's twins!!)

I therefore declare the BFP floodgates officially open, let's get on it berries!

yorkiebilb · 03/05/2013 20:19

No need to apologise frog you've every right to be distracted and excited!

Thanks barking I only went to the docs the other week so they are carrying out some initial tests on me and DH. I've definitely ovulated all my previous cycles as I've temped previously and seen rise after positive opk. Am hoping it's just a one off or a delay due to me being a stressy pants!

CharmingCats · 03/05/2013 20:20

frog! Yay!! Got everything crossed. So pleased for you. What did dp say?

yorkiebilb · 03/05/2013 20:21

boom I now have a image of you cutting a ribbon in front of a door entitled BFP fairground and us all suddenly rushing towards it like mad women!!!

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 20:26

Thanks everyone for all the good wishes & i really hope i have started a goldrush of BFPs for you all. Yes it's an HPT. Still no DP! He coaches kids cricket on Fri nights but should be home any minute now. I can't do anything except talk to berries in the meantime! You have all been so helpful in getting me here with all the advice on temping & OPKs. I'm getting all emotional already!

SidneyBristow · 03/05/2013 20:53

Just back from dinner & saw the great news frog!! Score one for Team Stepmother! I am so excited for you and will keep all my digits crossed that it's super sticky! What a fantastic start to the weekend! When do you plan to tell DH?

Will catch up on the rest of the thread tomorrow when I'm not on this bloody iPad! Have a great night everyone!

happylass · 03/05/2013 21:03

Woohoo Frog I knew the BFP gold rush was just around the corner!! Hurry home Mr Frog
Who's next in the pimping queue? AF due next Weds/Thurs here. Have totally forgotten who my cycle buddies are?!?

MrsB00Mbastic · 03/05/2013 21:43

I'm going to pimp after this weekend happy. Not that I'm basing this on anything except the fact that it'll be CD28 on Tuesday so might as well...although might not even have ov'd yet . Absolutely no chance of a BFP really, we've just been DTD as and when because I've given up any hope of a natural pregnancy, but might as well check!

Bajas · 03/05/2013 21:52

Excellent news frog I bet you can't wait to see your dh!

I got Af today, knew it was on its way for a few days and really struggled this time but your news has given me hope again.

MrsB00Mbastic · 03/05/2013 21:59

Aw bajas sorry she got you. We're all going to get diffed next cycle now though!

I have to confess that I'm dreaming of a BFP before May 13th, that's DH's bday and I'd love to give him some good news as a present. I know that's setting myself up for a fall, but I'm still kidding myself that miracles happen. I'm one of those people who gets very attached to significant dates/anniversaries, and it's almost exactly a year to the day since we conceived last time...

Frogcatcher · 03/05/2013 22:02

Oh sorry bajas. I feel bad now. Mr Frog really pleased but a bit in shock too. I think he's doubting the reliability of an IC as he says he spent a fortune on tests 9 years ago for his ex. Men!
