Waiting To Ovulate ~July/Aug~

[KatD]

Well I’m out before I’ve even started this month... OH has announced tonight he wants to leave it for a month, he doesn’t like all the pressure, doesn’t think I’m ready after the miscarriage and has got some work stress going on so doesn’t feel up to it, honestly I’m so angry and frustrated I could cry.... I feel like I’ve got no option then to go along with it 😩 good luck to everyone this month x

I'm so sorry that you are going through this emotional upset, I'm keeping my FX that DH will change his mind about this

Oh hun, what a sh*tter - I would be frustrated as hell but you almost have to respect what he says, possibly a bit of reverse psychology and just let it go.

Have a month off and play it cool next month and see what happens

I think I am out also, this random blood spell has thrown me

I'm with you on this! Had a temp rise this morning with loads of O pain (but no +OPK or ewcm so I'm totally confused) so if I do O today (which is a week earlier than usual) then I'm totally freaking out

I should have know that Murphy would throw me a bleeding curve ball - especially because I've been so excited for this cycle! Murphy and witch MUST be married.

Oh well, will see in the next couple of days, maybe my body is just gearing up (hopefully) and I still get a chance next week. Else.....it's hurry up and wait... as usual

I am still bleeding, so i think i can admit that the witch has got me twice in one month

Can i ask what Murphy is?

 

[KatD]

It's a saying

Murphies law - everything that can go wrong, will go wrong, usually all at the same time hehehe

Thank you KatD, I’m hoping he changes his mind too, I think my window will be from tomorrow to about Tuesday though so not holding my breath, good luck to you this month

So I think I missed my surge Thursday evening whilst at work, it went from getting there on Thursday morning to not even a hint of a line by Friday evening. I’ve also had mild cramps, light pink spotting (which I’ve also read is a sign of ovulation) and my watery cm has disappeared.

Missed BDing too as I’ve done back to back shifts at work

If I’m right and I have ovulated then it looks as though the vitamin B6 complex has helped me ovulate a little earlier, which would be great news I’m hoping it’s added an extra day or 2 onto my 10 day luteal phase.

 

[KatD]

Ooookay, so FF put some crosshairs on CD11 but I am not convinced at all based on my OPKs. Sure, I could have missed the surge but CP and CM and dodgy looking temps isn't really convincing me of O at this stage. It also looks like my OPKs miiiight be getting darker so I'm carrying on as if O is still to happen. Next possible chance of getting some bd done is hopefully tomorrow night, DH must just man up and do it lol trying to make a human here hehehhe

Feeling crap though, lower back pain, AF like cramps and dreadfully tired. Think I'm going to crawl back into bed now.

Will do some more OPKs today until a digi gives me that smiley I'm looking for.


LuckyG - interesting tid bit about the VitB, I've been drinking Berocca the last few days because I'm trying to fight off a cold, wonder if that is throwing off my O making it seem as if it is happening sooner than CD20...either way, like you, I'm just chuffed that my cycles seem to be getting healthier and shorter!

 

[LuckyG]

So I’ve had a day of fairly strong ovary pains, small amount of blood and a fairly decent line on my opk. Looks like I haven’t ovulated yet then.

I’ll continue to check my opk's 3 x a day until I get my real positive

This is the first month I’ve been taking vitamin b complex (50mg) and also the first cycle I’ve really noticed any bleeding. I’m guessing this is connected?

 

[Dinkydizzy]

When does ovulation bleeding happen? Cuz I had some brown ewcm yesterday at cd11 but defo haven’t ov’d yet, been getting the pains etc though so it’s coming, not sure if it’s left over blood from AF or ovulation bleeding? I’ve never had it before but my bodies nothing like it was before my late miscarriage in May lol, trying to figure out if it’s a new pattern or if my bodies still settling down

 

[night owl]

So today I got a nearly positive OPK, a fair amount of EWCM, and me and OH DID THE DEED!!! After him saying we were on a break from trying this month! Yay! I think this one baby dance is the best I can hope for this month though, don’t wanna push it so I’m hoping I get a blazing positive ov test tomorrow and ovulate by tues at the latest then I might still be in with a chance this cycle !

Not sure about the ovulation bleeding but I used to get spotting fur around 3 days mid cycle when I was younger so it’s not necessarily on the day of ovulation itself x

Yay it only takes the once

 

[IVW]

So if my bleeding was ovulation bleeding, then for me it was CD15. lasted for three days, however I am no closer to a positive opk, so it might not have even been ovulation bleeding

I am just testing in the hope I am still in with a chance this month, eughhh, I hate my body at times!

 

[night owl]

Yeah just keep testing IVW, you may just be having a weird cycle, I think that can happen from time to time, I’ve read that you can still ovulate without a positive opk too, occasionally you don’t get as strong a surge as usual so don’t really get a clear positive but can still ovulate, maybe mention you’ve had some bleeding though when you go for your smear

Oh hun I have EVERYTHING crossed for you, I hope that this cycle will bring your and that OH will be over the moon!

That's the best thing you can do, keep on testing and keep on bd until your are certain of O

You aren't tracking BBT by any chance?

 

[KatD]

Temp dropped this morning confirming my suspicions that I haven't O'd and DH returned from his trip so we worked in a round of bd...you know, in case. Lol

I'm keeping my FX for this cycle - O should happen by Friday

Aww thanks KatD, im not going to get my hopes up too much (easier said then done) with it only being once, I’m pretty sure I’m going to ovulate either tomorrow or Tuesday so just hope the little swimmers hang tight until the egg shows up! Roll on the TWW!

Tomorrow is apparently my fertile window, so we will see what happens with these opks.

No I am not tracking bbt - that’s a bit beyond me, just about got my head around opks

God it’s all so confusing this baby making malarkey, especially when your body chucks you a curve ball.
