Pregnancy Info HOME

Wifelady- Well, just took my last dosage of soy, I took 240 mg, just a little extra for good measure :) I started my opt yesterday, they've all had faint lines, but no positive yet, I just don't want to miss the big o, the kit I bought for this month has 50 opt's so I can test twice a day for 23 more days :) that's all for now, hope you have a good rest of the weekend!!

Carla- Get ready to bd! Those tests will be positive before you know it! and wow 50 tests! i'd test twice a day too!!! Well wishing you luck this cycle still :) Keep me posted!

ok....today I had a headache and sore b___sts all day...is it weird that I would have side effects 2 days after stopping soy??? and those aren't really symptoms that ovulation is near...any insight??

I read a study on clomid that said it stays in your system for about 5 days after the last dose and i bet it's the same with soy... so i'm sure you're just experiencing some side effects in that regards! :) Hopefully all is going well and you fill well enough to BD when the time comes :) I had my doctors appt today and he told me everything is back to normal... i didn't ask if they knew what had caused the miscarriage but he said to wait a period and that i need to go in asap when i get a positive pregnancy test so they can run tests and what not... which makes me feel good so i will be monitored and not pushed aside! Well wishing you luck :) Feel better soon :)

So glad to hear that everything went well at the doctor!! Are you going to wait another cycle before you start trying?? Or does he just mean after this next period comes you'll be good to go?? Still having some weird symptoms today and my ovulation tests seem to be getting lighter!!! I know that the test line has to be as dark or darker than the control for opt's to be positive and I haven't had that yet, but the test I took over the weekend were darker than the ones I took yesterday and today, oh well I guess those levels change day to day like everything else!! Have a great evening!!

He told me i "should" wait two periods... but that i if i just wait till after one that it should be ok. I'm definently trying after AF shows up... I've done enough of my own research and got some supplements to help my uterine lining (which is the reason to wait because it could be thing). I have my soy... and i ordered clomid... but i want AF here so bad i can barely wait! Well yeah i think they will differ in darkness but that they are not positive until the line is as dark or dark than the test line... i don't think they will progressively get darker... since it's an LH surge... it sparatically happens... and doesn't build up :) hope that helps... hope things are going well side effects wise :)

I would definetly try as soon as AF gets here too!! As long as you've been taking your supplements and your body is healthy you'll be fine!! Hopefully she gets here soon!! Do have any idea when your clomid is going to arrive??

Yeah i kind of feel that if my body isn't ready to be pregnant we just wont be successful! haha I have no clue when my clomid will arrive... the site says 7-12 business days but considering it's coming from mexico... i guess i wont a__sume that thats accurate haha... it said it shipped on the 9th so i don't know if thats the day i count from or from the day i ordered... anywho... still no AF... any sign of ov yet?? probably not for a couple days huh??

Hey there! On friday morning I had on opk with a dark sliver on one side of the line, we bd'd that night but then I went camping with some family and didn't take any opk's with me and when I tested when I got home today there was hardly a line there, so who knows!! I'm going to keep using my OPK's and we'll see what happens!! Right now I feel nothing happening :) Hopefully you're clomid will get here before AF, but not if it means it's gonna be awhile :) hahaha!!

haha thats how i feel!! Except i'm kind of glad that AF hasn't come yet... i'm SUpER sick today. Got stung by a wasp last night and i guess i'm mildly allergic. DAMN it hurt!!! But now i feel like i'm fighting off a ma__sive flu/cold and to top it off i have cla__s tomorrow ALL day! Fun... :( Well hopefully you bd'd in time... did you bd at all while camping?? Or was that just not possible because i know how that goes!!! Well i agree that you should keep taking your opk's keeping my fingers crossed for you :)

that is so weird...like a week ago my neighbor got stung by a wasp and had to end up getting steriods from her doctor, ironic!! Hope you aren't getting swine flu...take some vitamin c to build up your immune system!! No we didn't bd while camping :) one air matress with 2 adults and a 13 month old = no bding!! hahaha!! but it was worth it my little princess had a great time!! what kind of cla__s did you have to go to all day?? Still taking opks...still no positive...just waiting :) fingers crossed for your af to come as soon as you start feeling better!!

wifelady - How are you doing? I am sorry I have been MIA but I am back. Well I took another hpt on Sep 4 when I got home and it was a bfp but the test line wasn't as dark as I would have like to see but it was there for certain. I wasn't jumping up and down because I didn't want to get my hopes up because my temp had drop below the coverline. Anyway I guess I got woke up about 3am to the most painful cramps I have felt in a very long time and I was bleeding real heavy and pa__sing some very very very huge clots this went on for just about 3 days so I am a__suming I had a m/c. I am doing much better and I finally stop and on Sunday cd10 I started using my opk and today cd12 I got a bfp I am just playing it by ear we did bd yesterday in the wee morning hours but so far today we haven't. Okay to explain to you the money issue. I went to see a fertility doctor back in March and of course my insurance don't cover c___p. He wanted me to do a IVF well I can't afford that he was talking 13,000.00-15,000.00 I told him I wanted to have try IUI because my isurance will pay 50% for me do 3 cycles but before I can start that I know my left tube is blocked which he told me I already knew because I had a HSG done and that I have fibroids I found that out when I ended up in the ER and they were trying to give me a blood transfusion and hysterocomy I wasn't going for that. I want to have the surgery where they perform the laparocospy and hystercospy to go in and clean you up and repair anything. Anyway my copay for this suregery is going to be $1,175.00 I was down and depress because I just don't have this type of money laying around so the finanical department the lady is real nice I ask her if I could make payments and she said of course. I had at first sent in $525.00 back in April then I just stop because of course something just kept coming up I said to myself if I don't start sending in money and putting myself first I will never get this done. I made up my mind in August to start sending in money. She emailed me and told me that once I get my balance down to $300 she might be able to get the anethesia part lowered so that is why I give out 2 balances because I don't won't to get my hopes up. I can't wait until Friday to get here because it is payday and I can send in more money. My new balance will either be $450.00 or $275.00. I am so happy I would love to have it done by December because the kids are out for Xmas break. I will just tell my boss I am going to spend a few days with the kids. I will keep you posted on that. Also I am trying to plan a tea party for my daughter's 5th birthday next month she have been talking about having a tea party for 6 months so I have to make it happen. Her teacher emailed me to let me know that it is 18 girls in her cla__s and counting her that is 19 that is a lot of little girls. I know one thing their parents had better RSVP. Have a nice evening and I will talk to you in the morning. Krissy

Carla- you scared me with that steriods comment! Im still sick but feeling a little better. I am taking a CNA cla__s so that i can start nursing school next year... in california you have to have your cna certification before even being accepted into a program :( sad... however i do NOT want to be a cna so i may or may not work as a cna we'll see. two years from now hopefully i'll be an RN and that'll be nice... but for now... hello pre-requisits. Well How are you feelings... still neg opk's??? Hope all is well!!! :) Krissy- I'm so glad your back!!! That does kind of sound like a miscarriage so i am very sorry for you! However, i wish you just as much luck with this cycle as with the last! Though it sounds like you're getting pretty close to your procedure though! couple months away wouldn't be bad... though do you get your money back if you end up gettting pregnant and not needing the procedure?? Also that will be quite the tea party! It's nice of you to invite all of the girls from her cla__s... you're more energetic than i am!! :) As for myself, still waiting for AF... it's been a month and i have no signs or signals of it showing up any time soon. However i have sparatically taken opk's because me and my husband have bd'd a few times and i just wanted to make sure i hadn't been ovulating... all negative... but does the line get lighter right before you get AF because i took one yesterday and the line wasn't even really there like a shadow... and thats the lightest it's been... I'm just opptomistic that it will come soon... but it probably wont. Still don't have my clomid but at this point i just want af to be here... :)

wifelady - how are you doing? have you takend a hpt? They better give me back my money I would more than likely have to show them proof that I am pg. thank you for the well wishes and I wish the same for you. Not real sure on that one I know in the past several months back I use to have alot of opk and I use to use them for hpt and you sometimes get mixed signals from them I would just get $ store hpt and see what it shoes. Good Luck and let me know. Krissy

Forgive me if this has been mentioned in any of the previous post, but I was wondering if anyone has taken soy isoflavones along with Clomid? Is it even safe? I am currently on Clomid (1st Round) but if it doesn't work by round 3, I'll be desperate... thought? thanks!

Krissy- I am doing good... i received my clomid yesterday so i was pretty excited! haha I haven't taken any hpt's but i guess i'm just waiting still... it's really frustrating because it's been over a month. If i don't get AF in a week i'm going to call my doctor. Don't know what he can do for me though lol. Willsmom1- I wouldn't take them together just because they really are just supposed to do the same thing... but i don't know how they'd react with each other.. so i would just up my clomid if you want. :)
