2 DPO anyone with me?
I got my positive OPK on Thursdsay....was not able to BD until Friday morning.....my mother just happened to think that Thursday was a good night for her to sleep over at my house! So We BD friday morning and Saturday morning. I hope we got it. I know the OPK tells you 48 hrs in advance so I think we are good. We go to see an RE for the first time on Wednesday, hopefully this will be our month and we will not need her services....but we will see. Pray for me girls!

But if all your preliminary test were OK and your husband's semen analysis was fine what was the problem? Why you were not ovulating? Did you have cervical mucus for those 15 months you were trying? I will go to Reproductive Dr. at the end of month.

Good morning everyone. Sorry I haven't written in a few days, it gets tough over the weekend. Anyway, I just wanted to thank everyone for their support and kind words, but unfortunately AF showed up yesterday. I was so hopeful too because I felt different than all other cycles (really sensitive bbs for days, early cramping, etc), but I guess it was just pms symptoms all along. Must have been magnified by the Femara. We are so disappointed, but I guess it's not the right time yet. I called in my prescription refill today, so all we can do now is look forward to next time! I also see my Dr tomorrow, so I'm going to see if maybe I can have an ultrasound and a Progesterone test this month since I've never had that before, just to be sure. Well, I will definitely keep up with this post and I wish you all the best. It looks like some of you have some really promising symptoms. Keep up the positive vibes and I'll be praying you all get your BFP's!! Take care.
To answer your questions, my doctor didn't do any test to see if I was ovulating. I have seen a lot of people though that are given a blood Progesterone test at 7dpo to see if ovulation took place. Basically, all of my preliminary bloodwork (FSH/Prolactin/Thyroid) came back fine as did my HSG and my husband's SA, so my OBGYN suggested we move onto Clomid. At that point, we had been TTC about 15 months and even though my BBT chart had a nice curve every month, I used OPKs for many many many months and never got a positive test. I took Clomid for 4 months, got positive OPKs for the first time (so excited!), and had 2 ultrasounds that showed good follies. I used the Answer brand OPKs once, but I always use the test strips from early-pregnancy-tests.com since it's a lot more cost friendly. Have you had any preliminary tests done yet? Hope your husband's SA goes well. Keep us posted.
Which OPK are you using? I bought Clearblue but no LH Surge. My cycle is of 26 days. Last month was 28 days.
I'm using OPK for the 4th consecutive month now but I never get the LH Surge Positive. But at the same time I think I'm ovulating because I have Cervical Mucus for about 3-4 days at aroung the 12-15 day. How did you know you were not ovulating? How long did you test prior to start taking Clomid/Femara?Any test was done to detect you were not ovulating? My husband will have his semen analysis tomorrow. I hope all is well. Tks a lot for your help.
