I copied a link to my chart for those on tapatalk. My temp went up today but not very high. The last couple of cycles have been similar(but I changed the setting on ff so it showed o after a bigger temp rise. Last cycle ff on advanced setting said I o'd same day as +opk) so not sure if I o'd yesterday or not. Assuming that I probably have & it may take a few days for temp to rise up higher. Will bd again tonight just in case. Really wish we could have got at least 1 bd in on same day as +opk, not feeling very confident this cycle :(
Farmgirl I don't think you've oed yet? Maybe today? Let us know how your temp looks tomorrow :)

I've given up. Feeling really deflated and down in dumps today. :( I'm on 11DPo but not testing again. My BbT this morning was slightly lower again so they're not going back up like they should be. I used to get pregnant soooo easily - first shot. But not this time I don't think. I don't know what's wrong. Maybe the D & C I had last August? Or maybe DH is taking a male contraception I don't know about? All of a sudden I've realised how much I want to be pregnant again just one last time and I will be devastated if it doesn't happen. Take a look at my chart please...doesn't look good does it? :,(
1moregirl can you post the link to your chart for those using tapatalk?

One more girl don't you think being 44 is a more contributing factor more than d&c to get pregnant with one shot..
I had my first on the first night at 29 years old !! and it took me ages with my last at 36 years old it tells you how much fertility declines.. you can always try next cycle :)

Hi ladies in back from holidays, had a great holiday so much fun and for 8 full days I never once thought about ttc, so refreshing . I think I'm cd29 just waiting for AF then I'll do our next transfer.

No I don't think my age is contributing factor. Not at all. I have always been highly fertile. Even last year at 43 I got pregnant first try, and same when I was 40 and conceived our third child. So to not get pregnant this time (as I'm assuming I'm not) is a HUGE shock to me. I don't know what is going on but have heard that having a D & C can cause some sort of scarring and not allow you to fall pregnant again. Although my last ultrasound scan showed everything seemed to be normal.
I know I can always try again the next cycle but it's soooo hard when I want it soooo badly and my DH doesn't. It was really just luck that I got him to BD without a condom the night I got my first pos OPK this last cycle. He is usually adamant about wearing condoms, you see. So I really believed I would get pregnant straight away like I always have. We did BD with me on top and I was thinking maybe if he has low motility or something with his swimmers they just don't make it to the destination? I don't know. But I'm really bummed about it.
aww goodluck all ladies , hope you all get bfps this month, im only 3dpo so a week until i can test :babyf:
I'm certain I'm out and now just waiting for AF to arrive. I'm really disappointed and depressed about it. Usually one shot like what we just did is all it takes for me to get pregnant but now all of a sudden it seems sooo out of reach. Doesn't help that DH is not entirely onboard with ttc another. I feel so resentful toward him I could just about walk off and leave him, yet of course I wouldn't when we have our three beautiful children who I always put first. He is always so irritable, tired, grumpy, serious and I've just had enough of the sheer sight of him. Sorry for my negativity ladies - just can't help it right now. I wish the rest of you all the best in getting your BFPs. I had been hoping to get a BFP on 19th March as that was when my last baby was due (the one I lost last year). :(
Doctor told me I can try again, and I ask if I can have progesterone levels checked, she said it's an outdated test, and fertility specialist doesn't believe it will effect you, only suggest progesterone check if women don't ovulate.
Is this true? She also said if I spot again she will do saline sono, but if not then there no reason to.
I should be ovulating in a few days, but doubt I'll get pregnant until after my period.
Does vitex make you spot? I was thinking maybe of taking it again,
My progesterone was 5.7 at 11dpo prob was low due to miscarring I guess.
Princessmom I've heard that progesterone levels will adjust themselves accordingly during pregnancy but I'm no expert. My RE does check progesterone levels BUT I think at least in my case it was just part of my "cover all the bases" testing. If it really worries you, then mention it again to your doctor if you get pregnant again. I don't know if vitex would cause your spotting or not but I didn't even ovulate while taking it last summer and had breakthrough bleeding because of it. Ask Atomic for advice on it. She knows her stuff. :) I hope you get your sticky bean soon!
As for me, I had the HSG done today and my tubes are clear! The radiologist said it's possible they could have had a small blockage prior to the procedure the dye cleared out but they're clear now so it's all good! I'm so tempted to try this cycle but I have one more test to do in a couple weeks then hopefully we'll be done so we can finally have the consult with the RE.
Best of luck to all the ladies this month! FX for lots of BFPs!
Yay KS mom! Good for you!! Hope all goes well!!
Yea I'm gonna stay away from vitex, I don't have any issues, just pray no polyp comes back! Gonna opt in for saline ultrasound just double check, but doc said no polyps
Bfn this morning 11dpo (not surprised) now had some spotting tonight so AF is on its way.
Surprisingly feel ok about it, had a feeling March was not my month. At least if AF arrives soon, can start planning my April sway.
Decided to definitely drop jump and dump next month but stick to e4days! X

Sorry jenny and 1moregirl.
1moregirl, fertility really drops off much more rapidly in the 40s, especially after 42. I wouldn't expect to conceive right away but I don't think you'll have to wait that long. I know it's hard with your DH being opposed, though. Maybe the fact that you BDed when fertile without conceiving will make him drop his guard a bit?
I freaking hate Clomid! The constant hot & sweaty upper body combined with ice cold feet and exhaustion is just crippling for me. I feel like I have the flu for over a week! I've been naughty about snacking too lately, ugh.
Thankyou Maiden. You have a gifted way with words and make me see perspective. You are sooo right. I was naive thinking that it would happen straight away. And yes - maybe it will make DH let his guard down a bit and trust me to BD more often without the condoms. I am really thinking as well that I will use my diva cup next time too after BD as I did that last year when I got a BFP and it was the only time I'd used it so worth a shot right? :)
I'm sorry 1moregirl :( I hope you get your bfp soon. Sorry I dont know much about the diva cup in-regards to ttc
ksmom: Amazing news!! I too, would be really tempted to try this month but I understand your reasoning for waiting; fx you get your sticky bean when you do try!
Princessmom: yay for no polyps! That is great news! My OB is the opposite as he loves checking progestrone and bloodwork is his perferred method of checking anything (including ovulation he prefers labwork over ultrasound). Personally I would stay away from vitex as it made my cycles so irregular (even more so than normal) but thats just my experience with it :)
I'm sorry Jenny :( I think it's smart to drop J&D but still dtd e3d
Maiden are you taking clomid this cycle or are your symtpoms from the clomid still being in your system? FX you get your bfp!
Good luck to all those testing soon!
7 days post ov (I think! ) negative pregnancy test with first response going to wait now until Thursday when I will be ten days post and try again. Have a better idea of what I'm doing with the chart now so hopefully I will get more joy . Other half still taking cranberry extract for pink anything else anyone can recommend? I read about olive leaf??
Pinklady, I think it's better to ask Atomic about cranberry vs olive leaf for DH. Just open separate thread so she'll see your question. :) If you haven't already, I recommend getting the personalized plan. It's great to have when you have random questions/concerns pop up and you need her to answer quickly. :)
I do have an app with another doctor, it's just there isn't really a cause of concern of progesterone, since I have no issues. Doc said the polyp was what interfere with the pregnancy. I'm just trying my best to stay happy and looking forward to being pregnant again. It's just stressful lol
We all are being stressed out
Can a 40 year old take olive leaf? My DH is 40 but doesn't have any sperm issues
Oh cool maybe I'll pick some up lol
It's so quiet in here sshhhhh
So where is everyone up too?
Me I'm waiting for AF to start my next FET expecting AF in 3-4 days

CD1 for me too! AF finally arrived at 16dpo. My normal LP is 13 days so I actually got a twinge of hope at the end even though I knew my chances were super slim. We leave for our spring break Mexico trip on Sunday so hopefully AF is almost over by then.
Super excited for you Pbn3! I hope clomid does the trick!
Thanks essnce! Hope you have a great trip! When is o day for you? Hopefully we'll be cycle buddies! I usually o around cd14

Hi Jennypenny! Wow I hadn't thought of that - hmmm xmas could certainly be busy this year! So when do you usually o?

I am very irregular with ovulation, somewhere between cd14-18 usually but have had it as late as cd22 a few months ago!! I'm going to stick to e4days this month, but will keep an eye on when I ovulate to try to ensure that one of my days is nice and close to it!
Get so hungry and lethargic during AF ! Trying not to cheat and keep focussed X

That's great that you are starting Clomid PBN, hopefully you get pregnant soon.
AFM, I am on CD12, took Clomid days 3-7, and just waiting to O at this point. And yes I agree that this board has been super quiet lately, we need some BFP's in here!
So today I am 8 days po and was thinking of taking a test 10 days po with first response test. Two early??
