dolphin1204 The only thing the doc tells me when I ask why my cycles can go so long is "I just ovulate super duper late". *sigh*
I'm trying SO hard to take a break this month. I've refused to buy ovulation tests and everything haha. like I said, since I'm not on clomid, I'm not sure if I'll ovulate... or if I DO... when it'll be. So we're just waiting for the infertility clinic at the end of May. Maybe they'll actually help me keep a pregnancy!!!

Any news Wilson?

redshadoe0 have you tried anything natural? I am going all natural for the next fews months just to see how my body reacts to it. If I ovulate, how my cycles change or don't, etc..

AFM well ladies I am taking a break until Aug. AF showed up right on time this weekend.. Not too upset as I knew she was coming. But we are able to book our vacay/friends wedding trip for Jan now. So I am gonig to stay on and chat with you ladies and help any way I can. I will warn you I will be excessively positive!!! :) Good luck and baby dust to all!

Hello wilsonc. I can relate to you completely. My dp and I have been trying almost 2 years now. Nothing has happened so far. I started taking Fertibella a month ago. It's a fertility enhancer. I'm hoping that this will do something for me. It seems like everyone I know is having a baby or on their second child. I get so discouraged because I can even have my first. I know they say good things come to those that wait but I'm really getting sick of waiting. Hopefully good things will come your way soon!

wilsonc- I can relate!! I am in the same boat!! This is so frustrating!! I normally have a 28 day cycle and the witch shows up on time every month. However, this month I didn't track my ovulation and now my AF is two days late!! The last two days I have gotten 2 BFN however, I feel pregnant. It is probably my mind playing tricks but, the weird thing is...on 11 DPO I had very light brown spotting with twinges in my uterus. Then it went away but, the slight cramping stayed. Then on 14 dpo light, light, light brown spotting again, then again it has gone away. Now I am on 16 dpo (CD 31) and nothing. No AF, and a BFN. I don't know what is happening!! Ugh! If I am going to get my AF I wish she would just show up already so, I can move on!!

dolphin1204- have a nice break and we will enjoy all the positivity!

Good luck to everyone!

amcbain03, hey i hope the fertibella helps you ttc
i know it is frustrating when people say all good things come to those who wait but how long should we have to wait it can get u very irritated at times
thanks baby dust and hope something happens for u soon aswell :)

hey mela0054, it is very frustrating when your late especially when you are usually on time, i had spotting for 3 days on CD 19,20 & 21
I have done 2 tests and both BFN wish she would show up so i can move on from this too, i know what u mean with the feel pregnant my chest is really been sore today and have been feeling more tired the past few wks but i think its all in my head
good luck and baby dust hope ur BFN changes to a BFP :)

I have arranged for a telephone call with my doctor on thursday to give her an update from this cycle while im waiting to see a specialist.

Well I finally heard back from the doctor. She said my hormone levels are normal, which is a good thing. She told me to gain about 5 pounds and if we still weren't pregnant in a couple of months to give her a call back and I would possibly start Clomid.

How is everyone else doing? I am still just waiting to O.

For a year and a half we tried "all natural".... most of the time I didn't ovulate, so I would go for 70+ days without a period sometimes. So I jump started my period on provera, followed by clomid. I did 3 rounds of clomid that resulted in a m/c at 7 weeks and 2 chemical pregnancies. So clomid TOTALLY worked for me, but theres something else going on in my body that doesn't allow an embryo to stick :( So we're taking a break this month.... no OPKs, no clomid, nothing. I'm wondering if the 3 rounds of clomid might have regulated my cycle for a little? Maybe I can predict my ovulation time anyway... ugh, lol, who knows. I need to just leave it alone for a while. it's been a constant battle for over 2 years now and I'm tired. A break will do us good.

redshadoe0 I am exactly where you are. So I am kind of glad we had a semi forced break for a few months. Are you working with a specialist or just an obgyn?

mrsbaurs are you content with the approach your doctor is taking?

Hang in there wilsonc. How are the slimy little pets of yours? :) Any news from your phone call?

Welcome amcbain03. I think you will find that most of us on here can relate and discuss many of the same emotions you are going through.

mela0054 any update for us. My fingers, toes and everything is crossed for you!

AFM AF is coming to end which is fantastic! It feels weird to not be popping pills and stressing over appts and dates and such. But it also feels good! I have been bad when it comes to eating right and caffeine the last week but I told myself I would give myself a week to induldge then I am back to being good. Cutting out bad foods and caffeine has done wonders for me besides the benefit during TTC so I want to keep on that. I also am bound and determined to start exercising more. Good luck ladies and there are good things to come! Even though right now you all may feel good things will come only in the form of a BFP, try to remember that good things can and will happen to you every day! Be open to it and live!
