This month is not my month!!!!!!!!!

[Hales20]

Hi Girls,

Well as you all know (from previous posts) that yesterday was 12DPO (CD28) and with all the usual signs of a hopeful pregnancy like bloating, cramping, feeling ill, sore boobs & noticeable veins, i thought this might be the month!!

However, woke up this morning with what i thought might be AF Cramps, and sure enough, she decided to show herself & not make this my month!!! Again!!

Anyway, i am hoping that the next couple of months she will stay away & allow me to get what i want!!!

I am just curious, i know some woman have mistaken their Implantation Bleeding for AF, what are the usual signs of Implantation bleeding?? how would i know the difference between the two?? I have got my normal cramps & what looks like my normal AF, but who knows, i could be wrong!! (Hopefully - i wish!)

Can anyone let me know of their stories in regards to thinking they got AF (at due time) but it really being Implantation bleeding??

also, can anyone let me know if they have ordered medication/pills over the net to help increase their fertility & if there are any success stories out there??

Your thoughts & stories would be greatly appreciated!

Please send Baby dust my way & to anyone who needs it.

On month 4 now.

Thanks so much xxxxxxx

I havent been charting my temp, but have been using the OPK to predict when im ovulating, so when i get a positive i know i will ovulate in the next 24-48 hours. I used it this month & then BD every single second (sometimes up to 3 times a day) and still BFN.

I have only been trying for 3 months (going on 4 now) but me & partner have decided that over the next few months we are just going to let things happen & bd when we want to and if it is meant to be, it will happen.

Thanks for all your advice.

If anyone should know of anything that they have used to help increase fertility your msgs will be greatly appreciated.

DURHAMJK1 - In regards to charting your BBT, what temp thing do you use & where can i get one from??

[durhamjk1]

have you tried charting your BBT?  My ob recommended it for me  b/c he thought I would have a hard time ttc, b/c i have irregular and LONG cycles (42 -45 days) and he did not want me to miss my window, b/c he knew I would have less windows than most.  Anyways I charted, knew when I O'd exactly and figured I was preggo b/c temp didn't drop below coverline and was preggo after only 1 month of trying.  It wasn't that hard - if you are not already doing it I can help. Just PM me.  Good Luck!

i've never personaly experienced implantation bleeding but this is what i know, Implantation, the attachement of the fertilized egg to the uterine lining, happens between 6 and 12 days after ovulation and fertilization, and on average about 9 days after ovulation. Your period usually starts about 14 days after ovulation, so if you know when you ovulated and you experience some spotting, less than your period, about a week after ovulation, then it could be implantation bleeding.
Also, implantation bleeding is usually spotting, it's scanty, pinkish and not red and heavy like a period. Implantation bleeding does not follow the normal pattern of a period (light to heavy to light) and about 12-14 dpo. And it rarely if ever lasts longer than a day or two.

and as far as buying stuff offline to help get preggers i've never used any sorry i can't be of much help. But I wish you tons of sticky baby dust =]
