Kerzie, sounds like you actually know what works for you. Unlike me, I took the vitex and got really scared what was happening to me. It was a nightmare for me and tmi warning - I had this black spotting that I've never seen before (since we're being blunt ) At first I thought maybe old blood was leaving my body but it kept getting worse each cycle and I kept spotting more. It actually shortened my lp as well to 10 days. I truly believe it really helps people I just wasn't one of them. Have you ever had your hormones tested?
As for the progesterone I have used the natural cream form in the past and like I said it did absolutely nothing for me. Last cycle I did the vaginal inserts twice a day (prescription). My lp was 15 days ZERO spotting. For the first time in my life I felt normal. That was my issue all this time and I just needed something stronger than the over the counter natural stuff.
When do you plan on testing this cycle?

Hey ladies, thank you all for the congratulations. I'm feeling really fortunate , especially since i'm still getting interview requests out of the wazoo, so at least i can be picky about that xD Anyways, As excited as I am that those test popped up positive, I still find myself doubting them, even though looking at them offers reassurance that I was not hallucinating, I still feel sort of doubtful, like i'm waiting for the other foot to drop. That'll probably change if/when my period doesn't show tomorrow. Maybe it's because i've been let down so many times? Idk...we shall see =] Luck to all you fabulous ladies still waiting to test, and even more luck to all those the blasted has caught

Cycle Day 13 - My OPKs were showing a surge! Looking forward to all the BDing this weekend we've already been going at it everyday! Determination!

Best wishes ladies, have a great weekend!

Congrats pumpkin..
Today is my O day...still havent been feeling100% since last time... Good luck to all the ladies if testing this weekend.

Hey ladies,

Hope everyone is well. No symptoms for me, other than sore breasts/nips, and maybe increased hunger, im not sure. But i'm going to keep stalking this board til I see everyone get their BFPs =] I'm rooting for you all! Hopefully Pink will come back soon, I do miss her.

Happy Weekend Ladies!

I've been trying to catch up here a bit....

First off... Pumpkin! How exciting! I wish you all the best!

Hi SMP1973 - Nice to meet you. I hope you catch the egg on your first try!

Jandei - I'm sorry you weren't able to go the natural route as planned however I am sending positive baby vibes your way. Perhaps you will get twins out of the deal!

Calvin - I'm sorry and I hope things are looking brighter this week for you and the hubs.

Meghan - I think we're cycle buddies again! I hope you catch the egg especially since it's your fertile month. Mine is November LOL

I started my new job this week and I love it! The environment is awesome! Everyone has been very welcoming and helpful. Working definitely keeps me from spending too much time Googling pregnancy stuff...LOL As a matter of fact I even forgot to do my mid morning OPK test on Tuesday Timing for us is extremely important since DH and I don't live under the same roof...not until the first of the year. I can't wait! Obviously I want us to be together full time but then I can stop with the OPKs and probably even the temping. Well...MAYBE the temping...I do like to know when I o'd, It's very satisfying to the mini control freak living inside me Also if pregnancy is going to happen it will happen sooner.

Today is cycle day 13 and most likely 1dpo. I had a big temp dip (96.98) yesterday and today I spiked to 98.02. I wasn't expecting to o until today since I didn't get a positive OPK until mid morning yesterday. However my OPK was very very close to being positive on Thursday evening. I must have surged over night and then was catching the beginning of the end of my surge by morning.

Jandei. I would have been so scared if that had happened to me! Thanks for sharing, hopefully it will help someone who is going through the same thing. I've read of many bfp with ladies taking the progesterone that your on so
