HI Ladies, hope everyone is well. I am still quite busy at work which keeps me occupied not thinking of reading too much on TTC and gender forums and stuff like that. I am pretty sure I ovulate on CD13, which will be next week Wednesday, so we will put in our attempt to catch the eggie over the weekend. I bought some ovulation tests and I am using my ph strips again. I am struggling a bit to place where my ph is though, I think its somewhere between a 5.5 and a 6, so I need to work on it a bit more to get down to between 4.5 and 5.5.

Almost at Friday ladies! hope everyone is having a good week so far :)

Hi Everyone, even though I have not been messaging, I have been hoping and grieving along with all of you. I got AF at the beginning of this month so starting today, it is the baby dance disco at my place.. but nerve wracking so soon after the miscarriage but have heard that some women are more fertile then so really hoping I am one of those...

@ Reece, thank you, I hope that I am ovulating on my own but did not ttc this cycle. You are so right and I also try to control everything and need to sit back and relax a bit. Yes I am 4DPO today :) I have a 9/10 day LP and always read that it is to short but everyone is different and I had my daughter on a 9 day LP. No symptoms whatsoever. Ooh yours sounds promising and I have holding thumbs that you get your BFP on your anniversary, that would be so lovely. I also bought the pH strips now and tested and I am a 6.0, what is yours?

How is everyone else?

Hi Jay-Bee. :) I really really hope and pray that you ovulated this cycle and that you will get your BFP this month. I believe that our good news is around the corner. We just need to believe!

I have also decided a while ago that I will not be doing the Progesterone test this cycle. Just because I am tired of trying to control everything in my life. I am letting it go! I am fully trusting God this time. So if I don't fall pregnant this cycle, I know it will happen in His time and if I cant have another child, then it's time to move on with my 2 gorgeous girls!
I have stopped the supplements and diets etc etc... it was making me gain weight anyways...:cry:

I am 4DPO today and I am struggling with my low blood sugar and also been experiencing an abundance of EWCM mixed with creamy CM - not usual for me. I am praying that it is a good sign, but still not symptom spotting. I will really try very hard not to test before the 24th September when AF is due. Not sure if my LP is back to 14 days or still 12? It's our 10th wedding anniversary on 22 Sept and if I get any other weird symptoms, then I might just be testing on 12DPO on 22nd Sept. :cheer:

Keep me updated on your symptoms and things...we are the same DPO? Good luck, Jay-Bee! I have a good feeling.

@ Reece, I have decided not to got for the Progesterone test this cycle. Have you found a place to go over the weekend to test?

@ Reece, I have 26/07 day cycles so AF would arrive +- on Tuesday, so I thought of going for my Progesterone test on Friday but I see that Pathcare is open 24h at the hospital just around the corner from me, so I guess that I will be going on 6DPO as Sunday we are away. My luteal phase is normally 9 days so I can't go for the test after 7DPO. So scared as I have ovulation problems and really hope that I ovulate now on my own again.

@ Carien, thanks, I will take a look at the link

Hello ladies, I hope you are all still well.

@Reese, all the best. I am hopeful you'll get a BFP.
Aaah @Lagogies, so sorry for AF and the flu. Please take it easy and rest. Get well soon
@Cand, it's okay to feel that way. Take all the time you need and remain positive. Your BFP will come soon.

AFM, cycle day 47 still no AF. Contacted my FS and he requested a scan. He said my endometrium was thickened and I had ovulated late, he thinks that's one of the reasons why AF is late. He suggested that I check my progesterone level and if high we'll check for hcg levels as well. HPT negative last Thursday so trying not to think too much of it.
