Crappy report bthis am. CD19- still NO pos OK. VERY negative, but ewcm. CD19 is so late, why could this be, something is definately wrong with me. Do you know anything about these cheap online tests? I'm going to go and get my regular ones from Walmart thos a.m and compare. Feeling down and out today, if I don't o its just a completely lost cycle.

you guys are quiet today- hows everyone?

Hi there ladies - hope all is well. How is everyone's weekend going? Mine is good - just cleaning up a storm. Lovemy3 did you go get new tests from WalMart? If so have you tested yet? JB how are you?

Hey all...I had a weird week... AF ended and then 1-2 days after I was spotting and cramping pretty badly... Then it was OVER!!! WEIRD! Anywho, I have a drs appt this week, so we'll see if there are any folllies! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Good morning all. CD20 and no surge yet. Didn't go and buy new tests yet either. Feel like just forgetting all about it, had enough. I really don't think I would get pregnant with this late of an ovulation anyhow, something must be up, to be this off. Like Linds said that late ovulation often has poor egg quality. I'm really thinking girls, this is the last month for me. I know 7 months isn't long in the big picture, but I have really had enough. Sorry to be such a downer but I think thats it for us. Obviously not even ovulating my body is older than I thought. I hope you are all well, XOXO

Hey guys...I'm back and feeling better, just ignore my last post. Back with encouragement and ready to take on another month. Excuse my complaining, lets all have a great month!

Hi Lovemy3. Don't be too worried about late ovulation. Sounds like you're generally more regular but as we age our bodies definitely shift....I'm 39 and I'm not sure when I O'd this month - I think around CD29 but anyway I just had a BFP on CD40. I'm not excited about it b/c of the late O. Late O's for me have never paid off. Why would this one be any different. But I will hang in there and you will too! There are others out here w/ the same issues as us... When is your appt? January? Please take all the help they give you! Sounds like you just need a little boost. Hang in there!

Hi pmblake, Congrats!!! How come you aren't too excited? Why is ovulating late not good? I don't know anything about that. I'm really excited for you!

Hi Lovemy3, Thank you for you congratulations but well I'm concerned for the same reasons that you're concerned about a late O.. egg quality. I've had (this could be 4) m/c due to poor egg quality. Not necessarily from Oing late but just old eggs i guess. argh.. I'm just trying to be realistic. That's why I can't get happy about it. Okay I am just a little bit but not enough to jump for joy. How are you? Are you anxious to get to your Dr. visit?

Hey there, I only had heard of them being lesser quality from what I've read on these forums. never actaully heard that from a dr though. I'm looking forward to my appointment in Jan but I'm actually hoping and praying it happens before that. I tested a few minutes ago and got what looks like a positive surge finally! better late than never I suppose, cd20. Anyhow, we had been bding every other day, the last time being 7am this morning. Do you think we should wait till tuesday a.m or do it again mon a.m now that I'm seeing a surge? I am 37, how old are you? Is this your first baby?

That's great news! Wow and I"m sure you've covered all your bases w/ bding. I'm looking at my chart for this past cycle and if I O'd when I think I did - We only had sex 3 days before my O and 2 times in one day maybe right during or even after. Interesting you talk about bding in the am. Does that help or is that when you have the time? Are you temping? This was my first time charting temps and looking back it really worked. I dropped .4 at O (maybe) and in 2 days jacked up way over a degree. are you temping? It's never to late to start in a cycle. Take your temp in the am and go forward w/ it. I'm addicted to it now. I only took a pg test this cycle b/c my temps were in the 98's about 10 days straight. i knew something was up. Good luck Lovemy3! I would probably hold off and give your DH a break tonite. I'm sure you're good. I probably wouldn't again until tomorrow night or even tuesday am. Seems like I always get pregnant when I"m really not trying. IUI's and injectables.. no luck. But when I relax and have no idea that I could be Oing it happens. Let's see, I"m 39 w/ 2 girls and I've had 4 m/c in the past 2 1/2 years. but I'll keep trying. Take it easy tonite! Don't worry. Maybe take the cold medicine everyone is talking about for the next few days. I did do that this month. umm. robitussin I think. It helps w/ cm also it might just get you in the mood!

Hi there, Now tonight I have lots and lots of EWCM but my surge line didn't look as dark, using the cheap online tests and I have a ton of them, so i tend to be addicted! lol. I think we will bd in the a.m. I bd in the a.m cuz my dh seems more tired at night , seems to have a better sex drive in the a.m and quatity seems to be higher I think. Plus we just did it this a.m so I'm thinking tonight would be too early and then it would throw tomorrow off as well. So we'll wait till the a.m. How come you ovulate late in your cycle and why isn't it ok to just ovulate late, why is it negative for fertility? Thats great this will be your third, I have 3 as well. Can the drs give you some meds or something to keep this pregnancy going? ttyl

Linds, Angelkitty, JB...quiet weekend, how are you all? miss ya!

pm....just wondering, with your late ovulation how is your af usually? mine is VERY light. real flow first day, then tapers down to nil over 2nd then a couple of spots on 3rd. This has been going on for 6 months.

Good morning everyone. Nothing to report here. Linds.. I have been reading a lot about the different forms of PCOS and I am strongly suspecting that with the recent weight gain over the last 3 years that it has triggered ovulation issue. hair on my chin, obesity, thinning hair although noone else would notice i think it has thinned. back many many years ago, when i had gained weight i missed my af for a loong time and they told me my dheas was high and to lose weight. i lost the weight and my bloods showed normal dheas again. so now I am heavier again, and I am thinking that my dheas is up again. It can either be from ovary or adrenal gland they say. i bet the remedy wouild be to lose the weight. I am about 60 heavier than usual.

Good Morning Lovemy3. DId you bd this morning?? and my ovulation has always been off that's why I've been seeing an RE. My periods are very very light. one tampon a day light (tmi) I am 5'3" and when 107 when I'm not on fertility shots! 115 when I"m on meds. I think it's water gain. who knows. So I don't think weight is an issue. It's hereditary. My aunts and Mother all have reproductive problems... but all have 4-5 kids so something happened right. okay well let's see how the week does. I'm going to the dr this morning but probably won't have any b/w results until tomorrow. Did you temp this morning??
