Hi Cindy....thanks for thinking of me....i still remember when we were all chatting away here waiting for our bfp's...we were all fresh and new to the idea! Seems like a long time ago! I have read some of your posts and know you are having a boy! And that you and DH are thrilled about that!! That's so wonderful....i wish you the best!!
Eviery....i cleaned up my email account and deleted the link to the site and i can't remember what it was!...Maybe you could email me another link?...I was wondering about praybelieving and if she got her bfp yet?
Well, I've lost all hope over here for a bfp....I've taken many other tests and all bfn...I think maybe i picked up on a chemical again and just waiting on bw and af! Just want to move forward from this Clomid episode!!

Lisa- I just wanted to say hello. It is really good to see you active on the boards again. I have often wondered how you are doing. Anyway I just wanted to let you know I think of you often.

thanks Kristie.....i really don't know when i O'd then....if i go by the pains then it would have been after Sunday...which would make AF just due right about now......that would mean I O'd 13 - 14 days after the last clomid. Isn't it funny how we keep trying to figure out something that can't be! I'm like a dog with a bone sometimes,....just won't let go!! lol!
I'll have to be patient and just do the bw!
I didn't realize you were so far from where the training is!...that would take some fancy planning then!

Ryli, The training is in GA and I live in Utah, they are on the opposite sides of the US from eachother. We might be able to make it work one month. As for the OPK's, you know that they test line has to be as dark or darker than the control line to be +? We always have small amounts of LH in our system, so it is possible to get lines but not a + most of the month. My OB said that O pains arrive as your body is trying to O and that they are anywhere from 8-16 hours before you O. I am not sure if any of this is helping. I wish you the best of luck.

Kristie....congrats on the promotion...it sounds like something you are looking forward to.....Is the training site that far from where you live that you and dh couldn't get together for a little rendezvous around O time?? I always believed, where there's a will, there's a way. You will make it all work, I'm sure..
I feel less hopeful than ever after seeing the - hpt this am. It was the first month i used OPK's and I had two lines from thurs - Sat. in varying degrees of colour but it appeared the one i did on Fri the 16th was the darkest....Sunday morning was my last one as I ran out and didn't buy more thinking Friday was the surge.....
Maybe i was wrong and I O'd later..like you said. My last Clomid pill was October 7th... I do remember having some O pain on Sunday...but then maybe I O'd Mon or Tues which would be 14 days after the last pill...Is that even possible to O 14 days after the last pill??.......that would make AF just due today?? I don't know....I keep going over and over the dates trying to figure it out......so hopeless to try to do that!!
Ryli, I love both places for different reasons. This is my home... where all this started, so I can't seem to leave it for good. I am thrilled to see you hanging out here more. I know how stressful it gets being on this site and seeing all the BFP's and not getting one ourselves, but it doesn't bother me like it used to and I know it will happen for me some day. As for the test lines at the edge of your strip, it doesn't sound like an evap line, but with the other tests coming up negative, I would definately go get blood work done. It will at least put an end to your hope & grasping at straws if it is neg. With clomid though it does usually push your O back a couple of days and without a trigger shot you can O up to a week later than usual. I am keeping my fingers & toes crossed that you just O'd late and caught that big, healthy eggie. I am hoping with every fiber of my being that this is it for you.
As for me, I have some interesting news... I found out yesterday that I will be offerred a job that I applied for, with the same agency I currently work for. It is a great opportunity but the down side is I have to attend training in GA for 9 weeks. Yikes! That is 2-3 months of TTC I will be missing out on. The other downside is if I got pregnant this month, I would be gone from 20 - 29 weeks of my pregnancy. If I get pregnant anytime between now & then, I would be earlier. Gives me something to think about.

Thanks so much!! How are u? I tried to get used to the other site and just found it hard to manoever....I took a break from all this for awhile which was good for me...

Well, no af---5 days late...took a FRER and a net. cheapie and both negative.....I can still see the pink from the strip from last night so i know i'm not imagining it...wonder if the net cheapie could be more sensitive than FRER..? I'm prob. grasping as straws right now as they say but I'm trying to cling to some hope that it is a + but just too early to show....Maybe I'm not 5 days late....i'm not sure when i O'd....I think i'll go for bw later today and end this guessing game..... I could hardly get to sleep last night...we were so excited...I know, that's really premature to be celebrating but it's so hard not to when you get that slight +.......Unless this was chemical.....again....who knows....Just thinking out loud...

Hey guys...just wanted to ask your opinion on the hpt's.......when i got home at 5pm, i tried another internet cheapie and didn't see anything...but had tea and water this afternoon....then just before my shower i tried another one and an OPK (ok, i know i'm in bad shape!lol!) and I showered for 5 minutes or so and when i came out the opk had two lines and the hpt had the slightest of colour that could be seen at both edges but not really in the middle....?
what do you think? Does that mean it's an evaporation line if it's on each edge? Is it possible for the hpt to be neg at 5pm and sorta positive at 8pm or am I losing my marbles here!!!! I freaked out and ran downstairs soaking wet waving the hpt around and dh didn't know what to think!! We both smiled and were overjoyed for 10 seconds, then i told him it might be an evaporation line and the smile dropped from his face.....I wish i hadn't done that....in case it's nothing...

Asking god to play it again, I am not an expert but it is hard to say when you O'd based on those temps. I am sure that is why FF is not giving you your coverline yet. It looks like you got your +OPK on CD12 but you also had an unusual temp surge that day and if you O'd that day, it would have surged the next day. But the next three days show your temp really low. So if I had to guess I would say that for some reason you did not O yet or maybe won't even this month. Are you using clomid or anything that might delay your O? I hope some of the other ladies on here chime in to give you more insight.
