O.k. I am sick of this...the HCG is on its way out because I had just a very faint positive test this morning. This for me always mean I am NOT pregnant after taking HCG injections. My temperature this morning was 98.2 so it hasn't dropped yet which means AF will probably be here late tonight or tomorrow. This two week wait has been killing me honestly. If my cycle goes just a few days longer than usual I seriously check out mentally and it is all I can think about. I spent all day yesterday stuffing my face because I was so anxious about everything. Today is different though. It is always a rude awakening after POAS that this is NOT my month. Oh well, on to next month. I just wish I could stay in bed, watch T.V. and mope on days like this!
I had ordered the free DVD about this last week and it finally came in the mail. Has anyone else seen this? I saw it on another blogger's page. All I want out of the package is the cap for the cervix...I know that might sound weird but it makes sense to me after watching the DVD.
So, Dh has been gone now for about 2 1/2 weeks. I am SO READY FOR HIM TO COME HOME! Blah, blah, blah today is just a poopy day :(
That just doesn't seem fair that you could see a positive and it could STILL not be the month :(.
ReplyDeleteSorry you're missing your DH - hope your day improves soon!
I'm interested in the caps, but not the $300. I actually found it while researching this
ReplyDeletehttp://www.early-pregnancy-tests.com/softcup.html
which isn't meant for conception (I think the company is going through the process of getting it approved), but some people swear by it. . . and it costs $6. Not sure what I think of it.
It still could be your month, but either way I hope you find out soon.
I was going to say the same thing as Ann, except that instead of Soft Cups, I use Instead Cups. They were designed as an alternative to maxi pads and tampons, but I learned about them on the first TTC message board I joined a couple yrs ago. Women have had a lot of success with them, and the best part is they are sold OTC in most pharmacies (next to the tampons/pads) and they are like $7 for a box of 20!
ReplyDeleteI did hear about this conception kit, and it looks like a cool idea... however I am leery in it working for those of us with some severe issues. This is probably most effective for those who are in that 12-18 month stage and may just need a little boost, kwim?
Anyway. I am bummed you think AF is imminent. I am still praying you're wrong, though :)
Are you sure it is just the HCG on its way out? Why is your cycle so long then? (Sorry I get confused by all this stuff!) I would think if you saw a faint line that could mean something...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're in limbo. I hope that it's a true positive (even though you don't think it is). I'm sorry your DH has been gone for so long. I'll keep you in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteRe: GIMH said. I think FT said in an earlier post comment (I'm such a stalker!) that her peak day was later in the cycle - either 16 or 19 - so her cycle would probably be 30-33 days this time. (You can always spot a true infertile when they can automatically add 14 to any number at the drop of a hat!!)
ReplyDeleteThe HCG could be from the shot, or it could be from something else . . . lets hope!!!
I've ordered the soft cup that should get here today or tomorrow. I used them in the past, but can't remember if I conceived while on it or not. I'm better at charting that EVERYTHING I'm doing now. I don't plan on using them every BD'ing opportunity, but I am going to give them another try.
I am sorry you are so frustrated. If you are ever in doubt on when to start HCG you can always email me. Since I am a Creighton FCP I can offer my thoughts. I just need to see your chart. Remember, P is always last day of K, 10 or L and the shots start on day P+3. PPVI has always told me never to take a HPT because it will show positive even if I'm not....however, they do consider day P+17 to be important for a blood test bc then you can get the HCG level you are at, above 50 is needed, and progesterone shots right away, if needed. Hope this helps. When was the last day of your last shot? If it was more than 5 days ago - this shows improvment in your cycle and your body responding. You really want a nice P+16 cycle for implantation.
