I'm so frustrated. My cycles are getting longer and longer. So that means I'm ovulating later than I think, right? I'm getting the right signs for ovulation when I *should* be (consistently around CD12-14). I'm currently on CD39, no period in sight. Last cycle was 58 days; before that was 44. that’s so frustrating. i’m sorry. are you taking any new meds? or NSAIDS that delay ovulation? i’d definitely get a set of OPKs for next cycle to make sure you’re ovulating when you think you are.

Congrats Fearsy! I’ve been working a shit ton during this and while I’m thankful to have a job I’m exhausted. I went from working 1 day a week to about 45 hours a week to compensate for all the chaos. So sorry for being absent/lurky!

I decided to test today at an estimated 11-12 DPO if I’m following my CM and I got a squinter. MH sees it, which makes me feel better. I only have one other test so I’ll probably take that in a week. With all the COVID I’m nervous to go out any more than I have to, even for extra tests. I called my doctor and she said that she agrees with that course of action and scheduled me to come in 3 weeks. But for some reason I regret testing so early.

Congrats onyx! Looks like I’m not out this cycle. After my shitty appointment last week, I had several days of really light bright red bleeding. I think it was withdrawal from my meds and assumed I was out. Well I noticed some fertile signs yesterday, so I took an opk. It was positive! I’m on CD 20, so it’s late but definitely there. Once I’m sure I ovulated, I’ll start my progesterone. I also had a nice talk with the fellow at my RE’s office. She called me last week to say are going over patient statuses and unless there is a major change in COVID info, they would feel comfortable with me taking low dose medicine unmonitored. So I wouldn’t have to take a break next cycle. Basically in the past week I went from little chance until at least May to a good chance. I’m really grateful and happy. Hopefully I get my quarantine baby this time.

I couldn’t wait... I took my last test this morning and another faint line! I did order pregmates because 3 weeks is a long time and for whatever reason 2 tests has not convinced me and I need to pee on more things.

I’m doing okay. I am skipping bloodwork this time and have an ultrasound scheduled for 7w on 4/13. My doctors office no longer is allowing anyone except patients so I’ll have to go alone. I am hopeful right now. Thanks for checking on me.

Ok I have to ask, so I got my pregmates today and I also ordered a digital. So I’ve taken 2 FRER which were positive, the digital was positive, but the pregmates are negative.
Idk what to trust. Opinions? I’ve never used pregmates before and almost feel like I should just stop peeing on things now. Lol

onyx I feel like people haven’t had positive things to say about the pregmates. The digital has a higher threshold than the FRER, so it might still be early. I would trust the FRER and wait a few days to see if you flip a digital test.

onyx pregmates take forevvvver to show up! and the line progression sucks! trust the FRER and the digi. but keep peeing on the pregmates because once those turn positive you can be assured you’re super pregnant. 😂

I'm cautiously optimistic that when I get my IUD removed to TTC #3 this summer that my cycles will be more "normal"...but it's probably wishful thinking.

This is reassuring to hear, as frustrating as it is. I ended up randomly taking an OPK last week after I posted here, and it was the darkest result I've gotten yet! I'm not getting my hopes up, but I will be wasting a lot of cheap tests this weekend (way too early, but who am I kidding...I'm not going to be able to wait lol)

I think my dark OPK last week wasn't the result of ovulating...I was feeling off and took a pregnancy test this AM (pretty randomly!) and immediately got a dark line. I ended up taking 3 pregmates and 2 digitals just to make sure lol. All instantly dark. I must have ovulated when I initially suspected!

I think I had a CP. I started spotting this morning. My doctor is having me come in today at 2:20 to confirm. I knew it was early, but fuck I got so excited and was so confident.

onyx I’m really sorry. Hope the spotting is nothing. It was just the tiniest bit of blood. Smaller than a pencil eraser, my doctor asked me to take another test and now they’re negative. So I’m just dumb founded and absolutely heartbroken. I’m just praying I go to this appointment and they’re like oh no look everything is fine. But I also realistically know that’s unlikely. Update: my doctor is sending blood work for me to do tomorrow and Monday. As of today, I’m still pregnant. Bleeding has completely stopped so fingers crossed.

Bleeding has picked up. Definitely a CP. I’ll do the blood work to confirm but counting today as CD 1. 😔
