I am new to this board, and hoping that some of you clever ducks can help me understand something? I had positive ovulation on cycle day 17, and I am now cycle day 27 (11dpo) but my ovulation tests are dark -not positive I know- but I normally don't have any lh line unless I'm ovulating or about to. I don't understand what could be happening? Has anyone experienced this or anyone have any theories? xx

Pandorica, Emma and Shay I wish there was something to say that could make this waiting period easier! Not knowing when O can be so damn agonizing! Sending positive vibes your way girls! Really hope you’ll O soon and it will be lead to success!!

Mama maybe implantation dip? Fingers crossed!!

Rampokker You’re so close of knowing!! Let’s hope your hubby is right! I believe if you conceived with your daughter easy maybe this will be the case again for you!! Good luck

Mistique enjoy babe!! You did it!!!

Mommy congratulations hun!!!! That’s so exiting. Happy for you

Jeebee There are many ladies that are having a second surge after O and before AF and its considered normal. There are also ladies who got positive opks as an indication of pregnancy since opks can detect also the hcg hormone. Honestly it could be either but I really hope is the second scenario for you!!

AFM Not much! Days are passing, hubby is taking his supplements and I’m waiting 9-10 more days to start my new cycle!!

Happy Sunday everyone

Thanks Alex, that's so kind of you to take the time to reply- thanks for the info- I had no idea!

Jeebee Amytime hun! That’s why we all here for! To help each other if possible!! Keep us posted. I would love to see the outcome!!!

I had a night off last night and went for drinks with friends ( it’s been 8 months ) so obviously my bbt was high this morning and I put it as discarded, is this what you would do too ? I don’t really think it’s accurate with me having alcohol in my system so think I’ve done it right ? X

This chart is really frustrating and confusing. No idea what’s going on! But I guess time will tell.

@Mamaof2 not sure either but that's how my charts where looking when I tried temping last summer. Didn't make any sense but I would get a positive opk and EWCM right before O but then my temps wouldn't reflect that. I know I was ovulating though because my cycles were regular and my LH surge was consistent with dates and CM and because I had a chemical one month but impossible to track with temp for some reason. I did some research and it seems like not everyone always has a clear temp rise after O even though most people do (and I used to when I was TTC for #1).

I'm getting another blood test tomorrow to check my levels. I don't really expect to O until at least a week from now. Still had a faint line on HPT this morning. I may need opks this month since I have no idea when to expect O.

Emma I usually discard my temps if I wake up a totally different time than my normal after a night out drinking and waking up with kind of a hangover! But If I drink for example 1-2 drinks and wake up normal time next morning then no, I’m not discarding them. Maybe I should I don’t know, but I don’t!! I know I’m not helping much lol

Mama I really hope your temps craziness is implantation related

Agatch I hope your body get back to normal very soon!! Fingers crossed that you won’t be trying for long

I finally ovulated! A 5 days later then expected, most likely due to the borage oil. If there's a next time, then I will stop taking them around cd 12 instead of cd 14, so hopefully I ovulate at my normal cycle day then. But I hope there won't be a next time of course. I've started taking baby aspirin this morning and will be using progesterone cream as well. Now I just have to survive until I plan on testing.

So I went to take my temp this morning and noticed I entered my numbers wrong for yesterday. So it went up a little yesterday and a bit tonday. Not so worrying now hoping to see a here in the next few days AF due between the next 4-7 days so just waiting it out. Of course I know it’s to early to test but I have been. Nothing so far but today is only 7dpo. I get something in the next few days. Don’t have my normal pre AF symptoms. I have had cramps for like 3 days now which normally don’t get worse until the day before AF and my boobs are sore which is normal for me. Had a little nausea yesterday but that’s normal also but I’m nowhere near as moody as I normally am by now so that’s a little strange fo me.
Alex I hope so too! But it was a little off yesterday cuz I put the wrong numbers in so we will see. I fixed it today and it looks a little better now
