Jubilant July 2WW thread

Interesting burakoam, what did it indicate? That you weren't ovulating, why would that be? Crap if it means am not ovulating!

How are things? Last post I read from you, you were of to jump your husband?

Sorry cross posts, crap crap crap, my gp is very unhelpful! He just keeps saying it's age related why I have not got pregnant! He has offered to do a blood draw at cd 21, to see progesterone levels, would that issue be identified by a blood draw? X

I'm waiting to test. I'm between 8-10 DPO today... So freaking hard not to test. I'm trying to not hold up much hope as I believe I still have PCOS issues and therefore will need clomid to get pregnant again...

The flashing smiley is when your body sees a surge in estrogen linked to just before your LH surge which is around when you ovulate. I used to get flashing smileys at cd 6 until cd 14-15 when I'd get my solid.this was before my last baby. For the two months I've been using OPKS now I haven't gotten a single flashing one now but I think that's related to low estrogen from breastfeeding. I still get solids but even those seem to be wonky..

It can always be age but I doubt it as i have been following you on here since the start of my 2ww and its like Deja's vu for me...Granted I'm not a doctor I just know what my doctor would think of your symptoms. A blood draw did not show mine. All my hormones showed normal. That obviously was not the case

Sorry tfahn. Got everything crossed for august. I hope your right but I think that line is so poor for this stage. Theres only a few times ive had poor lines like that and both were chems. Im sure i have implantation issues.

Girlie your bloods at day 21 will check your progesterone levels and they will know if your ovulating or not. Previously I always thought if you got an lh surge/pos opk you had to be ovulating but apparently that's not always the case. Fingers crossed you get some answers this month. You sound exactly like me with my first. I had a dose of Clomid and Bob's your uncle, pregnant, with a girl! X

Exciting, well fingers crossed for you! I have found the two week wait a most frustrating time.

Funny you should say this because past two months cb monitor has identified high fertility but no peak, endless highs, this happened before but I ended up pregnant with ds 1 and ds2, so I never paid much mind to it. I am getting a solid smilie on cb digital opks. Is Amy chance of getting pregnant with this? Can it resolve without medical intervention? Thanks for your help x

Sorry than :( I hope the injectables do the trick!

Girlieplease, if you aren't ovulating then you could have mild pcos which the LE diet would make worse. Maybe look at the PCOS diet? The cd21 test will probably show the dr that you are not ovulating so maybe he will help. It could also show you have elevated LH levels which is another pcos indicators. My midcycle bloodwork showed my hormones were all wacky so that is when the GP started suspecting PCOS. I would also get several OPK+ per cycle before eventually ovulating around cd30.

Thanks ladies, what would I do without you guys! But aaaaaahhhhhh, this is a nightmare! I just think maybe I should just give up? Seems like my chances are slim this month irrespective of whether it is high oestrogen or pcos. Thanks for all the advice,will check out pcos diet, but am sure it is too late to change now! Will reduce caffeine and hope that reduce estrogen. What can idiot about either of these issues? Thanks everyone x

Freudian slip ' idiot " that meant to read can I do. Idoit ismore apt! X

Girlie I would not give up. I got my 3rd beautiful girl and I was in your shoes :) I would look up PCOS diet. Soda is a huge trigger for my PCOS as its high in sugars not so much the caffeine... It could well be a trigger for you too depending how many cans of soda you consume a day. girlie I hate to see you give up your dream... Why not speak up with your GP and tell him no offense but you really want a referal to an RE and hopefully get a cycle of clomid.... It may make all the difference!!
