Whitney - Oh, I hope you get some good news and have a late implanter!

Keo - I so know the feeling of positive OPK but no temp rise..hang in there.

Heartcore- Wow, hard to say..I'd be curious and test again.

tx - Still hoping for you!

Doolin - Sorry DH doesn't really want to TTC this cycle

keohanel · 04-22-2008, 09:37 PM

Deb and Springtime - thanks girls

i'm still POAS on the OPKS - it's kinda fun to POAS something since i don't seem to get to the HPT part. hopefully i will at somepoint!

Tummy - I really really really hope that it is late implantation but i can understand how it helps just to know that it all works on some level! also don't worry about personals! you are always there for everyone - we all want to be there for you right now!

heartcore - what DPO are you?

and laura32? I second doolin's comment on your avatar

howdy to everyone else

Ok realy quick while commercial is on

Heartcore-Tough call .........I would test again in the morning. It was me using false unicorn and I didn't experience sore nipples. I did get a period naturally while on it, but it was not a "real" period......just a lot of brown gunk. I also have noticed an increase in CM since being on it.

Tummy-((HUGS)) So hard!

Whitney--Keeping the fingers crossed for you.....don't give up yet!

Deb-Hope clomid is kind to you this round!

Hi to everyone else! Gotta go American Idol is back on!!!!!!!!!

HRTinAZ · 04-22-2008, 10:25 PM

Whitney - huge (((hugs))) and prayers! ditto what Keo said about you always taking time to thoughtfully respond to people's questions/feelings... we could NEVER think of you being selfish on this board -- because you just aren't!

Heartcore - I don't want to get your hopes up, but the only reason I POAS last week was because of sore nipples and I got a positive. I took the two line test as well and the second line can be fainter according to the intrx if it was the same type of test I took. Now you can't really say for sure until you take another test though? I definitely think it's worth re-testing.

Deb - Good luck with this Clomid cycle!

Hi and hugs to everyone I missed!

relka · 04-23-2008, 08:22 AM

heartcore- i would absolutely poas again. how wonderful would that be!

how is everyone else? today so far, seems to be a better day for me. i still have an achy right ovary though.

Tummy · 04-23-2008, 08:46 AM

Good morning, all, and thanks again for all the kind words. Temp is down again this morning and stick is negative, so I've set my mind on the chemical pg idea and I'm okay.

Heartcore -- thanks for the warning about the impending AF -- mine are always super light so I guess I'll have to buy some heavy duty products this round. I can't wait to hear what your test says today! Wouldn't that be incredible??

Springtime -- do you know what the Lupron actually does?? Just curious b/c my sister doesn't have to take it and goes straight from bcps to stimming.

Doolin -- I hope for good things for you with this study! There are a few threads I found by googling that have people participating in it posting about their experiences.

Deb -- how's the clomid going??

Keo -- I know what you mean about peeing on OPKs. I remember being there

Relka -- your achy right ovary is probably because it has formed a corpus luteum cyst. A lot of times in medicated cycles the CL gets quite large/cystic so you can feel it. I even bled into mine, which they could see on the u/s after I O'd. I felt a pinch the whole 2ww (until my temp started dropping, which I think meant that the CL was involuting)

Okay, late for work... more later!

deb1211 · 04-23-2008, 08:49 AM

Whitney - I'm sorry to hear that you are getting BFN. I hope your time is coming soon!!

Heartcore - Did you test again?

Well, 2 days into clomid and I have a new zit for each day..so lovely! I'm in a grumpy mood today since my hockey team got knocked out of the NHL playoffs.

stacey88 · 04-23-2008, 09:03 AM

I think it's totally normal/healthy to be in the grieving process. It's different for everyone and there are ups and downs in the process. You will feel a lot of the same emotions several different times throughout the process. I teach a Growing Through Loss program (deals with any kinds of losses you can imagine, not just death) to Juveniles and when I was getting trained on that program, the woman that wrote it said that it sometimes takes people about 3-4 years to completely go through the grieving process.

If this is something that you are concerned about, you might look into going to talk to someone about it. It might help you work through the process.

heartcore · 04-23-2008, 09:41 AM

Ahhh so frustrated...definitely BFN :-( My nipples are still sore and yesterday I had a LOT of EWCM so maybe the false unicorn is just playing with my hormones...who knows. Anyway I now have 3 more tests in my house...DH went to the store for me last night and came home with 4! I don't like that temptation sitting in my bathroom closet. I told DH last night I didn't even care if we had an ugly baby LOL

Tummy · 04-23-2008, 10:56 AM

Heartcore -- haha! I've said the same thing, basically that I'd be fine if our kid was funny-looking, as long as he/she is healthy! Sorry about the BFN

. My nips get sore when my estrogen is high (I learned that this cycle since they were testing my E2 every other day). Which would also go along with EWCM. Any chance you're about to O now?

Stacey -- nice to have the rest of the week off! I wish I did. SOOOO tired this morning.

lucyladybug · 04-23-2008, 01:08 PM

I am not too concerned about still being in the grieving process. It is more that I feel alone in the process. I am dealing with the loss of not only a baby but 2 grandmothers all in less than 2 months. I think I am also dealing with the loss of fertility. IF is a horrible situation and since my miscarriage life has been out of my control and I have not had the opportunity to move forward at all. That in itself is a grief of sorts. I thought for sure I would have had one ttc cycle since November and I haven’t. My DH isn’t going through what I am physically so I am pretty much alone in my feelings and grief. And there aren’t too many people even on this wonderful board who have had this many setbacks.

Laura32 · 04-23-2008, 03:30 PM

For what it's worth, and not to be insensitive, but no one can know what another person's setbacks have been. There are some women who have family issues, or husband issues, or health issues that they choose to keep to themselves. This board, in my opinion, is meant to be a support system for PCOS and IF, and while that completely includes ranting, I don't like to hear anybody trying to insinuate that they personally have suffered the most. There aren't any awards handed out for "Most Suffering". Sorry, but that's how I feel.

Other than that, love you guys, and hope you're having a good day.

Hello Fellow "Laura from Canada".

What is isotonal? (forget how to spell it now and can't see your signature in reply mode).

Laura32 · 04-23-2008, 04:17 PM

Hey, Laura! Not Canadian, just thought the Avatar was funny! Though I can literally see Canada, Wolf Island, from my back porch. Inositol is a B vitamin that has been shown in some studies to promote regular ovulation. There's a form of it called D-Chiro-Inositol, which most of the studies have used, which seems to really work but is stupid expensive, so I'm using regular Inositol, 500 mg, that I got at GNC for $9, and has also had studies done showing positive results. It is present in a lot of foods, esp. buckwheat, and also the body makes it, so I figured, what the heck. It's also good for depression and for eating disorders (not sure why). I am one of those people that doesn't want to take a lot of herbs, bc I'm afraid of messing around with my system too much, and then not knowing what substance is causing which results, if that makes sense, but I'm fine with vitamins. I really ought to add Vitamin D3 too, since one study showed that PCOS women were deficient, but honestly, I don't want to take another pill! I hate swallowing pills!!!
