    Not sure on the tests SweetLily, I'm not familiar with how the digital ones work so not sure if you can trust the lines or not. I really hope you have some HCG in your blood, that would be so great. I am 39 as well and had 2 chemicals and 1 chemical/MC since December so I think it is way past time we get are sticky babies.

    As far as Maiden, she said she wanted to take a break from the forums for a while which I totally get, it gets hard after TTC for so long. I have seen her chart every once in a while so the only thing I know is it looks like she is still TTC, hopefully all of us finally get our BFPs!

    Thanks. Yeah, I really have no idea how the digis work. I asked the lady on the phone at FRER and she said not to trust it. I also googled it and it looks like they get 2 lines like all the other tests (from some of the pics i saw) but who knows. It's also a DRY test, not reliable AT ALL. I thought I'd put it up there for reference for anyone in the future. I think a lot of us are POASaholics and taking a digi apart in a moment of panic when it gives you a ? instead of an answer is something many of us might do ROFL!!!! I swear I almost died right there. I'm like, I wasted my FMU on THIS?!

    Glad my dr ordered a beta. He did a very good job at not looking horrified when he asked if we were TTC again. Hes the head of the hospital in our town, and had to be intimately involved in my loss a few months back, all the problems leading up to and my complaint over how it happened to the provincial health board. He isn't my GP but they share the clinic and its who I could see today. I really like him. He did a great job at keeping a straight face, he was probably thinking dear heavens, here we go again...

    My chart and temps are very iffy anyway this month. I started a small job this month and have to get up at 5 am for it 3 days a week for a couple of hours, and I usually temp at 9:30. I started 2 weeks ago right around O no less, so I adjusted my temps all month. I went back on FF and put in all my temps with the 5 hour time spread as they were and it gave me dotted lines for CD 21. I guess its possible. Maybe I didnt O when I had my o pains? I have NO IDEA.

    Even if/when I do get a bfp, I'm not going to get excited or even tell ppl until 28 weeks. I'm pretty scarred by my loss. It was so traumatic and scary, and the drs did nothing to help at all. I don't think I will even go for prenatal appointments except the 8 week US to see if there's a heart beat, as the drs have proven how useless they are in this entire journey. I know ppl say prenatal appts are so important, but I've had 5 babies and my loss proved they can't do anything to help you stay pregnant. It's a very jaded attitude, but I refuse to be running in and out of the ER like last time (cause we have no after hours or walk in clinics here, if you need to be seen outside of office hours OR if they're just too busy to fit you in, they send you to the hospital!!!!)

    Enough of a rant, Thanks for the update on maiden. I avoided these boards for a long time too. All the chemicals were getting to me. And then I start obsessing...lol...

    I'm really sorry for your chemicals, it really hurts when it happens over and over.

    I agree, I hope there's lots of bfps this month If mine isn't a bfp, I'm waiting til september to ttc. My DH is going to be denied entry until O has been confirmed absolutely, as I want to do a detox for a month and cant do it if TTC. He's going to LOVE that!

    thanks sweetlily but I'm hoping your wrong, I really don't want another girl so I'm hoping that the slow rise is not related to a girly bean!! I had very noticeable tests early with my daughter so hoping this slow rise might be a good thing for me. Fingers crossed for you, I don't know about the digi tests but if they work in same way I see two lines!!! xxx

    Well I'm not sure it's a positive either...it's DRY! BUT I did look at frer digis and that's what they look like cracked open. The lines are much further apart than a regular frer. I hate CBs personally, can't stand blue dye but thats just Mr. I guess we will see. I'm going to call the dr at 4. If it's negative they will have the result back. If it's positive thry have to send it out for the quantity and that will take til tmrw.

    Thanks for the input hun

    My bad lily I should have googled the FRER digital before responding. I'm also emotional and blind at the moment so I'm probably going off the boards for a while lol. Hope you hear the results you want

    has anyone in this forum had low progesterone during a pregnancy, did NOT use suppositories and still ended up with a healthy happy baby?

    I cannot find stories of hope anywhere. im losing all of mine.

    I can only guess that I did with my DS2. I couldn't get a positive pregnancy test until 21DPO, and even then it was very faint. The doctor took blood work on a Friday, I was 24DPO then, and it was 42 I think. I remember my progesterone being low but was told it was in proportion with my HCG level. On Monday, my HCG level was 112. I was worried the whole time because we only DTD on CD8, CD10, and CD11. I remember worrying so much because of such late implantation. He's a very healthy boy now!

    I'm hoping and praying that this all works out! The stress of early pregnancy is so hard. Huge hugs!!

    Bukoram I hope you get answers soon, it seems that some ladies have been in a similar position and had healthy babies. You must be out of your mind with worry,really hoping this works out for you!

    Think am out this month my temperatures are dropping and I feel very much like I do before af, was expecting it as our timing was off this month. Only thing I don't get is I only ovulated on Sunday, ( I think) so am only really dpo4, really hoping af stays away until at least dpo 9 as if it comes soon that will be a really crap lp! Hello September, when I started trying in June I never expected I would still be jumping on the 2 ww bus in September, good luck everyone else who is waiting x
