Good morning ladies...well, I don't think that I o'd afterall:( Can you please have a look at my chart and let me know what you think? www.fertilityfriend.com/home/soimpatient maybe it is just too early to tell. On my piczo site I posted pics of the opks (at the bottom of the page). I have been taking two a day. The two on the left are from Wednesday and the two on the right are from Tuesday. I never got a "true" positive but it was soooo close. Let me know what you think. Maybe I got an lh surge and never released an egg. Urgh, this is so frustrating. I was really hoping that I wouldn't have to go for my lap at the end of the month. Sorry for rambling...oh ya, here's my piczo site angelasparadise.piczo.com

So--I only checked out your FF site this AM, but based on that it seems a little early to tell either way. Got to keep on keeping on with the charting. Hang in there. I really hope you O this cycle.

Hey Ladies - So-keep on bding so you are covered! My SIL had her baby yesterday so 2 new nephews w/in 3 days!! Its so hard - i need to get pregnant soon! Mega the beta is coming soon! So exciting! Lynn wow 3 trimester thats fantastic - the rest will go by quickly!! So my appt we are basically upping my dosage this cycle along with assisted hatching - i hope that does the trick! I also hope i have more than 1 to transfer this time - praying those embies divide quickly!! Well gotta run will check in later!

Hello....So, I checked your site but girl....i am dumb when it comes to all the tempting and such. i never could get it right. i guess that is why in May we just did lots of BDing. LOL. sorry wish i could help. Mega......beta right around the corner.....i am so crossing everything that will cross for you. Cmelissa, glad they are doing more this cycle. if you feel it is still not enough....demand more during this cycle. wow, 2 new little ones this month...how nice. i know you are feeling the pressure and it will happen. keep us posted. any thoughts on when ER and ET will be? KOT, what did you decide to do this cycle? Carol, I did not know you knew Ann and CC. I have been talking to them for a while now. Ann and i chat on an over 35 board. i e-mail with CC as she got hit hard when she got +++ then miscarried. she is maing a come back so i am happy about that. well, i go for glucose on same day Mega does her beta. hopefully we both will have good news. hosted my pamperd chef party last night....it was fun. made 2 very good foods. well, talk to you all later....

Lynn - how fun you hosted a pampered chef party!! I think my dr. is doing the right thing this cycle upping the dosage etc.. Mega how much meds did you take? I will be taking 3 vials of repronex and 3 of gonal f plus AH so i hope that does the magic trick! yep 2 more additions to the family this past week - i'm excited to meet them! I just hope i get pregnant soon - i honestly feel like the only one not starting a family and i really have no control is this matter! Mega less than a week to go now!!!! Lynn gl with your glucose test! I'm on day 8 of bcps - i still have 14 pills left - ugh!

Hey ladies. So, are your temps still up there? I hope so, So! :) But as Cmel said, keep on keeping on with the BD, cover all those bases. Kot--Anything new with you? AF still holding off? Lynn--GL on Thurs. with the Glucose test. I hope we both get good news too that day. That's right, not much longer til Beta day thank goodness. I also know Ann, & CC, I've posted in the past with both ladies. Small board huh? I keep in email touch with Ann now. If you ever chat with CC anymore tell her I said hi & hope she's doing well. Glad you had fun at your Pampered Chef party. They do have some cool stuff. My MIL likes their stuff. Cmel--Congrats! on nephew #2. You'll have such a fun T-Giving this year. I know it gets tough watching others' get what you want more than anything in the world, but you're time will come, soon I hope. And just think, your baby will have sooo many cousins to play with now. Hang in there. And just think you're a 1/3 of the way done with BCPs. (The IVF post I said 1/2 way thru, math is NOT my strong suit obviously!)

Good Morning Girls! I hope everyone had a good weekend. I have been reading diligently everyday, just no time to post every day. CMEL: I am so glad that you will have a higher dose and AH. That has got to do the trick for you. I have you in my thoughts and hope the next 12 days of BC pills go by fast! LYNN: Mmmmm.. pampered chef party food sounds good. Did you get lots of free gifts?? I hope your glucose test goes well on Thursday. Enjoy that drink! SO, I will try and check out your chart. I got my BFP after my 2nd month of charting. I had never charted before. I thought it was the greatest thing. The other thing that helped was the more expensive OPK's. They are by Clearblue Easy and they give you a smiley face when you surge. No guessing. I still hope you O this cycle. Well, as for me 9 weeks 2 days. I had a big scare on Friday with some spotting. I was like "Please God don't let this happen to me!" I called my drs. office and I am like 5 mins from them. They said come in and we will do an ultrasound. So I am sitting in the waiting room wondering if my little one's heart rate will still be there. IT was thank god and I measured exactly 8 weeks 6 days, which was right on. I do have a small pocket of blood above my cervix that he said would come out over time so I can expect more spotting. I haven't had any but I haven't done much activity over the weekend. I have been exercising and not sure if that was the cause, but my dr. said I could continue normal acitivity but not to over do it. They are also going to watch me right now, as my placenta is forming, they think it might be placenta previa. Too early to tell. That is whent he placenta sits part or all over the cervix and it is not the ideal situation.. Sooo that is my update. I can say that my little grape (that is how big it is now) did more than double in size since my 1st ultrasound, so I was pleased. I still worry every minute of every day about m/c. YOu think once you have that BFP you will be fine. Just a new set of worries. I have to run now. MEGA: I am praying, praying , praying for you. We need a + on this board. How are you feeling? Anything going on?? Check in later.

Carole, I'm really sorry about your scare, but I am very happy to hear that everything looks good with your bean! YAY! As for me, well, my temps are still low. I guess that I didn't O afterall. I thought that I was going to since I had a positive opk, ewcm, o pain etc...i'm really bummed right now. It is really frustrating when there isn't anything good that happens with this whole ttc. I hope that you ladies are having a good Monday.

Carole--Thank God things are going well for your little bean/"grape." I'll be praying you don't placenta previa. How scary the spotting must've been though. You're right, the BFP just ushers in a whole new set of worries. Thanks for the prayers, well wishes. My wait is almost over. Yay! No cut & dry symptoms per se, but after last cycle & the zillion cramps and twinges this is a nice change of pace really. Hopefully the lack of signs is a good sign. I'll be thinking about your little bean! Hope the new job continues to go well. So, Oh I'm sorry about the low temps. I was sure you were going to O too. It is frustrating. Well hopefully once the cyst is out & you're recovered they'll find the right drug for you & you will get that well-earned O. Hang in there.

Hey Ladies - happy monday! Yes i hope these bcps go by fast so i can get started!! Mega 3 more days till the beta!! so exciting! Carole wow already 9 weeks - time sure flies!! We have missed you! how is the new job going?? Glad everything is okay with your little one!! So sorry about the low temps - this ttc can be so frustrating at times as we all know. Well i will check in later!

Just bumping us up! Hope everyone is having a great day!

hi girls.....nothing new to report. i have been at a conference for 2 days so now just need to rest. praying for good things to hit you girls......

Hi Girls! Mega, have you taken a HPT yet??? You must be getting excited about your beta! Melissa, I hope that the BCPs go by fast for you also. That must be a real bummer having to take those. Just remember, it WILL be worth it in the end. As for me, well, my temp went way up today! I don't know if that means that I o'd late...which I doubt b/c I know when I had ewcm & show cervix...anyway, FF says that I am 4 dpo. If I did O I really think that I am 5dpo. Either way, I just hope that I O'd!! In 10 days I will know for sure...if af shows up, at least I will know that I can o and hopefully she won't show up and I will get a bfp. Wishful thinking:)

Oh great, FF took away my O date today. Bummer!

Hi Angela! It's funny to find you here! Have you started injections yet? I came to this board to try to find information about starting injections. I hope that I can join you on this thread. Last week my doc gave me an injection of progesterone to make AF come (it had been 6 weeks without AF). AF started Sunday and I go in today for my first u/s and I should start injections today! I'm so excited and nervous (mainly nervous about the needle!). We watched the video on administering the injections last night - yikes! DH said he would give me the shot though. I better go - check back later!

Anna B, welcome! Good luck today! I hope the u/s goes well & you start those injections tonight. The first one is always the worst, your DH will get the hang of it quickly & it'll be a peace of cake. Well pretty much. What injectibles will you be on this cycle? So--I'm sorry FF took your O away. Reading yesterday's post I was so happy for you. But wait & see what tomorrows temp is. I gather today was pretty low. An occassional dip around 5 or 6 DPO isn't terribly uncommon, hopefully it'll be back up in the next day or so & FF will give you back your O. So to speak. I'm really hoping you indeed did O. To answer your question, no, I haven't done any HPTs this cycle at all. But I'm so excited for tomorrow's beta! 1 more day, yay! So we'll see.
