Hi sunbathing, how are you?

I haven't ovulated yet so will be a couple of weeks before I can test. Really hoping to get another positive opk later on today which will be my second surge of lh and hopefully I will ovulate tomorrow?! Quite late for me but I did up my dose of epo from 1000mg to 3000mg this month and also started taking b6 hoping to lengthen my luteal a bit but think they have messed things up as I haven't even had ewcm and had 3 days worth last cycle. Will probably go back down to 1000mg next month and give the b6 a miss.

No I had a positive opk on cd10 only for one day but I haven't had a temp rise so don't think I've ovulated, I'm cd14 now. However I did another opk this morning and it's almost positive so I'm hoping that either later on today or tomorrow it will be a strong positive and then I will finally ovulate. I read up on it and you can get the first surge and your body gears up to ovulate and it doesn't quite manage so tries again a few days later and hence the second surge. I have all usual ov pains so keeping my fingers crossed.

DH has his final semen analysis at the end of the month but other than that we don't have anymore appts at the clinic for the time being. She has said I don't need any other tests and to see how we get on until the new year and think further about what we want to do if nothing has happened by then.

Glad all is ok with you Smile

Lucie, fx for +opk later.

Sunbathing, sorry to hear you've been worried. I'm quite sure it's normal to be worried after a loss. I hope your midwife can put your mind at rest and the blood test sounds like a good idea.

Mzzzf, just wasted half an hour looking at the symptom site you linked to. I find it interesting that so many women experience early symptoms despite numerous websites saying it's impossible until after implantation.
Waiting for ds who is at a party, was supposed to go to the gym but I'm too tired so sat in coffee shop eating cake Grin

Treaclepie19 · 19/10/2014 15:16

Sunbathing I hope the midwife is helpful. How many weeks are you now?

MaGratgarlik1983 · 19/10/2014 15:27

Well ladies I caved and tested = BFN :( Totally. So it's either another chemical (which I don't think, as last time the positive was strong enough to be positive on a CB digi) or what I suspect is that my cycle has gone a bit haywire. CD1 for this cycle was September 5th...arggh!! Actually really want AF now as I really don't think I'm pregnant no matter how much I try and convince myself otherwise. Just want to start another cycle and get closer to that sticky bean!

Magrat, so sorry it's a bfnSad totally sucks that your cycle has been so long. Really hope you're out of is limbo land soon Thanks

Sunbathing, pleased you've got the same midwife, it means you haven't got to go through explaining it all to someone knew although I'm sure it's in your records.

TerrysNo2 · 19/10/2014 16:30

Spinning it was really annoying because for whatever reason DH, whilst asleep decided to stroke my arm at 5.30am and as I'm such a light sleeper it woke me up. So I temped then and my temp was 36.49, which is still way above my coverline of 36.16. I'm hoping I can get a better reading tomorrow as Saturdays was also a skewed one at 4am.

Treaclepie19 · 19/10/2014 16:42

Glad you've got the same midwife. Gosh 7 weeks.
I really hope this is it for you :) xxx

I want to test!!!!!!! :p hate the 2ww.

spinningirl10 · 19/10/2014 16:48

Oops Terry, tell dh to keep his hands to himself before the right timeGrin looking good though if it's still high.

Genni, how are you today? Are you home from Berlin and when will you poas?

English, hope you had fun at the wedding yesterday.

gennibugs · 19/10/2014 16:58

Hi spinning I am back today. Had a lovely time and didn't want to come back or go to work tomorrow Grin . I'm 7dpo so think I'll poas on Wednesday...but I'm going to try to hold off as long as I can as I just find bfns so crushing. How about you - when will you poas? just had a quick flick back and things are sounding promising for you fx! Smile

lucieloos · 19/10/2014 17:00

Hi Genni glad you had a lovely time in Berlin! Do you want me to update your bfp due on stats as got you down for tomorrow! Smile

Hi lucie how are you?
Yes please! My cycles are a bit all over the place so if you can put me down for 25 October as based on last month I think that is when AF/bfp is due!

lucieloos · 19/10/2014 17:09

I'm good thanks genni, just waiting impatiently to ov at the moment! Have changed your stats, there are quite a few of us due our bfps towards the end of the month so fx!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 19/10/2014 17:14

Lordy, try not to worry hun, I'm sure all is fine. With my first mc, it stayed red, but I wasn't in any pain. I think if it's already gone brown it's more than likely it's just your little bean burrowing deep!

MrsE I'm sorry to see you're feeling so awful. I hope the haematologist gives you the iron injections.

Sorry to those who've had bfns.

I've been really suffering today, worst hangover ever! Can't wait to go to bed!!

spinningirl10 · 19/10/2014 17:16

Ooh that's spooky Genni, you popped up just as I was thinking of you! I'm going to try and wait until Wednesday as well, the single line on the hpt is a killer. Pleased you enjoyed Berlin, I've never been but my student is from there.

Lucie, my bfp/af date is wrong due to very early ov this cycle I think it's due next weekend. If you update again maybe you could change it for me,thank you Grin

lucieloos · 19/10/2014 17:21

Yes no problem spinning what would you like me to change to? 25th?

spinningirl10 · 19/10/2014 17:29

Yes please Grin

Nordicmom · 19/10/2014 18:09

Sorry been AWOL since my latest disappointment ...
Sorry for bfn and af .
MrsE hope you'll feel better soon!
Lordy got fingers grossed for u that things work out !
Wanted to ask those who have used soyaisoflavones how much and which days they took it ?!
I've read the info posted on it earlier but still a bit ? My pills didn't arrive until the other day so missed this cycle . Couldn't find them in our Boots or Holland and Barrett so did Amazon. They're 50 mg ones. Should I take 100 on the first days and then 150?
Btw since I suspect I might have a problem with the imp stage I just read interesting article on them now " glueing" the Ivf emb on the uterus ?! Might ask about that when I get that far ...
