Me again!!

Hey ladies...Here's a good one for you!!  I announced my BFN and I am still PISSED off about that...Now, just for the heck of it I used the ovulation stick...same time 10pm that I always do and guess what??? It was very very dark!!! Now AF was due on Sunday...we did the deed(LOL!!!) last night and after I went to the bathroom and there was a little bit of blood when I wiped. That was it. I thought the BD would bring on AF...it does that sometimes...well still nothing. AF is missing in action. Anyway is it normal to have such a dark result on an ovulation stick the day after AF is due??? The 10th, 11th and 12th the tests were dark and then lightened the next day. How can I be ovulating now when AF hasn't made an appearance yet??? The OPK is "Ovusure" and it had very good ratings. You can look it up if you want to. I am very confused. I mean this test was DARK!!! Why?? Please help me. I am calling my OB today to see if they will get me in to run some tests...like the FSH one. Any input for my confusion would be very welcoming!! Have a wonderful day...it will be 94 degrees here in my part of NY today. It went from Winter to Summer overnight!!  Love you all!!

OK ladies, I called for a blood test, went and picked up a script for it so I will go in the morning (lab was already closed today). Also grabbed a script for a semen analysis for him...just to be sure. I also got the results from my work up and here are the numbers...they are all foreign to me so maybe you can help me...I'm not good at reading lab tests.
TSH, 3rd generation 1.28
FSH, 13.1
LH 19.9
Prolactin, 6.4
Estradiol, 192
Progesterone, 0.5
I spoke to the nurse and she said these are all normal...is that the case? You ladies have been through all this and I have no clue...
Also, just went to the bathroom and there is pink when I wipe and it's mucusy (don't know if I spelled that right). Am I counting this as a period now? I went through this the last 3 months. Always just pink, never need to use anything, doesn't transfer onto panties. Should I still take the blood test anyway?  Let me know what you think and know that I love you all soooo much for all your support and help through this!!

Aww Dawn, I am sorry it was BFN.  When you said late AF and positive OPK, I really thought this was it as well.  I say go right to the bloodtest, and I also hope I didn't push you too hard to retest.  Anyway, keeping everything crossed for you.  I can only imagine how frustrated you have to be right now.  Love ya girl!!

Wow! when you started that other thread I thought AF had come! Did you BD last night? There have been cases where women have O'd right before or during AF. But I am praying that the OPK is actually responding to BFP!!!!!!!!!!!  I have my fingers and toes crossed and am praying for that BFP for you. I have read stories just like the one you mentioned where they keep testing BFn and ultrasound says differently. Also have heard of women not testing BFN until a week or more past when AF was supposed to arrive. Personally, I never take a BFN to heart. The only true sign is AF showing up and until that happens, I know there is always hope!

I used those first response, and with the two that I lost they tested positive before my missed period,  but with both of my babies (the one's who drive me nuts now) I tried those tests on the day of my missed period and BFN...  a couple of days later BFP, and now screaming kids!  so maybe you just have low hgc being early and all!  the not knowing is the killer!  maybe you did ovulate twice and if you aren't preggers yet, in two weeks you will be!

It's not your fault!! That should be why it was + opk. I am getting ready to call on my lunch break. We had NYS Science testing so I didn't get to call at 10:30 either. I'll keep you posted and please don't feel bad...I've researched +opk after ovulation and everyone says the same thing...it is usually a pregnancy. I also read a post somewhere that a woman had neg hpt's and blood tests for weeks and weeks. She finally demanded an ultrasound and sure enough...there was a baby!!! Not that that will happen to me but...weirder things have happened to people right!! I will keep you posted.. Thanks!!

I'm so sorry. I feel like I gave you too much false hope and I feel terrible. I thought for sure this was why the + opk's.  I hope you get in touch w/your dr. soon, HUGS :(
