My temp is finally up above to coverline today! What a ridiculous cycle this has been - delayed ovulation, pre-ovulation dip, and a slow rise. I think I finally feel confident that I ovulated either yesterday or Thursday, which gives me a new POAS day of August 14 or so.
I'm glad I was charting, or else I would have totally missed my ovulation day. I had all the symptoms right around day 14, but I think the stress of going out of town, staying up late for a wedding, etc. probably delayed my ovulation until day 20 or 21!

@sylvie_b: Don't you worry for one second about having no symptoms at this point. I had absolutely nothing going on when I got my BFP and found it totally weird. Just you wait. Things are coming I promise! Ha.

@grace: I'm sorry! AF showing is always so disappointing. How are you doing?

Ok I'm back for another round.
Cycles TTC: 3rd cycle it total, 2nd after mc
POAS date: Depends if my cycles regulate or stay wonky. Maybe August 31st, maybe the first week of September.
Trying anything different this cycle: I am NOT using OPKs. I think they make me crazy. I will chart my temps, and BD every other day till AF shows up.

@sslm: @JoJoGirl: @Smurfette: @alison206: Thanks ladies. I'm fine. It's just so frustrating. It shouldn't be taking this long. Luckily, I think we're far enough in that we can start looking for answers. DH is getting an SA next week an if that is ok, then I'm going to see my doctor.

@grace hugs I can only imagine how frustrated you are but like you said at least now you can look for answers.

I tested 12dpo and got a negative. Do I give up or what? I didn't even get a faint line or anything

@anonysquire: It's not over until AF shows up! I say, keep testing if you are okay with seeing white or wait until AF is late and then test.

@anonysquire: Do you have the internet cheapies? If so, I'd say keep testing. If not, I would wait 2-3 days then test again =(

@Jennimac: @dharmainitiative: That's the thing, I don't know when my period is expected. This is my first month of Clomid so I am not sure if it has regulated my cycle? If not then my period should be like August 19th (my regular 45 day cycles) So I guess just wait til then? I have a couple of the dollar store tests and a couple of the target brand. I really don't want to keep seeing BFN so maybe I'll attempt to wait another 2 weeks. Ugh!

@anonysquire: Yikes!!! That's probably what I would do. Will your doctor induce your period if you go a certain number of days without your period starting or a BFP?
cantaloupe / 6923 posts
Not that I know of. I am so frustrated because due to ovulation pains, opks and charting temps I am certain I ovulated July 22nd and we made sure to have sex the surrounding days, not to mention almost every other day this month. How can I not get pregnant when we take all the right steps? UGH! Sorry for the vent.

@anonysquire: I get it. One month, we timed it perfectly; everything worked out on our CBEFM, BD was perfect, EVERYthing perfect! We didn't get pregnant. Next month, we BD 1 time due to Hubby's work schedule and being out of town. That's the month we got pregnant. We made it through all the 'worrisome' times of pregnancy and by all accounts, should have been fine. However, when we went in for our 20wk anatomy scan, we couldn't find a heartbeat.
TTC is a mind trip and it will test your fortitude. Hang in there!!!

I'm not sure what's going on this month. I think I'm going to have to pull back again. We weren't going to use OPK's but had a box left that Walmart wouldn't take back so we decided we would. Well I'm on CD20 and still haven't gotten a positive. That's a first in our 6months so far TTC. The more frustrating part is that I had a completely normal 28 day cycle last time and got so excited things were heading in the right direction. I just can't focus on this anymore it's too much.
We see the doc again in October. If things aren't any better and we aren't pregnant by then then we will probably do a SA and possibly Clomid. I've never had a problem before but after Mirena my body has been a mess. What a nightmare.
Good Luck to you all though!

@Crisark: I know how frustrating that is!!! I got one as late as CD21 if it helps at all. I totally understand being frustrated. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself

@JoJoGirl: I was better this morning and took one and got a F'ing error message, also for the first time, so I'm thinking I'm just highly frustrated that lol. I have like 3 sticks left. I'll finish them but after that I'm done until my doctor appt.
My little sister also just announced she's pregnant which is AWESOME! but I was a little jealous at her skinny 25 year old self only trying for a month after her Mirena removal and here I am 6 months later and can't get a damn positive digital OPK.
Just annoyed.

Just popping in to say Good Luck to all you ladies! After our m/c, we're anxious to start trying again, but I probably won't be POAS until September. Until then, I'll have my fingers crossed for you on the sidelines!
