I'm actually using evening primrose oil now for more ewcm and it has definitely worked. Don't start it though til you know for sure if you're pregnant or not.

So I got some more ov strips and realized I've been doing them wrong. I have been dipping them too long, so I'll bet that has affected my results.

Good to know Athena, also I read something last night that said u should use your second pee for opk as it has more LH in it due to the time of night it is produced. Will evening primrose hurt the baby if I am pregnant? Cos I've been taking it for weeks...

stupid phone triple posting

I don't know if its harmful, but everything I've read said when ttc to stop it after ovulation. I knew about the smu for ovulation tests though. Ttc gets to a point where you read so much that your head hurts. Someone in here said it becomes like a science project lol.

Where is everybody?

Tracey - yes, you could still be in the running. I don't know how you've waited 5 days without testing. I'm still pissed that I'm old enough to be your mom. When you're pushing 40 you'll totally understand.

As for LH strips, I use them with smu, then when they start to get dark I take them at least twice a day. It's easy to miss your surge with just once a day.

Forgive me Lord for saying this but I am so pissed!!!! My dr told me over the phone a week ago that I could get genetic testing if I wanted to. But she called me today singing a different tune. She said that those with mthfr usually m/c later in the 1st trimester and she wont test me for it cause I lose my babies before 5 weeks. She still thinks it's just bad eggs and I'll get pregnant soon. Plus she didnt want me to get my testosterone/lh/fsh rechecked because it looked fine last time. I know for a fact it was still off and that can cause failed pregnancies. I had to demand the testosterone check and she finally gave in. By the end of the phone call I was on the verge of tears. THEN the icing on the cake...she said what every dr says. Because I lost them before 5 weeks that medically I did not m/c cause chemicals are technically not m/c's! She said emotionally it was but medically it wasnt. She also doesnt want me testing til a week after a missed period! I'm sorry but I'll be dipped if I'm gonna wait a week to find out if I'm pregnant cause the dr doesnt want me to know if I have a chemical. If I have to go to an RE...they are going to know about every m/c!!! I didnt bother to mention the aspirin to her but dh and I agreed to go ahead with 81mg of baby aspirin and extra folic acid, B6 and B12. It wont hurt to do these things whether I have a clotting disorder or not. So this way, I'm covered. I'm not gonna let a dr allow me to m/c cause they dont want to test. Sorry just venting my aggravation!

@gracey- welcome to the asylum!!! Hope you get your bfp and dont need to go as crazy as us.

@athena- i hope you OV soon!!

Tara sorry this doc turned out to suck, too.

Tracey - I'm on CD btw.
