LesliAnne and Renee,
Thank you girls my son is feeling better, we both had a long night sleep, he had some pain just when he was drinking his bottle but it wasn't anything like sunday night. Thank you for your prayers girls, they did help.
I am now on CD 16 and my temps. are going up and down I one day get a 98.2 then a 97.7 and keeps on only that temp. I notice this since last month. The first month on ovulex, can this be cause of the Ovulex? I do think so but I hope this month I get a clear O day. I would O around CD 26 to 32 so I will see maybe I o earlier or later than those days. But I will try to do my best this month and hopefully we all get a BFP! I think it's about time, Don't you all think?

Sammy,
I am sorry about AF, but don't feel bad because we all have gone through that same thing. I know it gets depressing seeing those BFN. I felt last month the same confident about a pbf but after testing several of times I got depressed of seeing those bfn, but we have to keep trying and don't give up. Just take it easy and try to relax and not stress that much. Thats what I am doing right now I am trying to keep posotive but at the same time I try not to think about it that much. Keep the faith.
God Bless!

Take all take and baby dust to all of us!!

Well ladies as soon as I get out from work I will take my son to the doctor for a check up on his tongue infection, it still bothers him when his drinking his milk. So I'll TTYL.

Take Care.

Hello Ladies,

It's been quite some time since I last posted, but I NEED YOUR OPINIONS! PLEASE HELP!!!!

Is it possible to ovulate while your AF is still around???

I stopped ovulex after almost 3 months b/c it made my cycle's extremely long (I was 24 days late the first month, then af hung around for 24 days, then about 2 weeks later, af started again and has now been here for 17 days). I use an ovulation microscope and have been continually since the first day of AF this month, well today it showed that I am ovulating.

Normally before ovulex I had a 34 day cycle and would ovulate on day 17 (today), but is it possible that if I'm starting my normal 34 day cycle that I AM Oing, even though I'm still bleeding a little (very lite, basically only when I wipe...sorry TMI).

DH and I will BD when i get home from work 2nite, but is conception even possible if I'm still bleeding?

Sorry to go on for so long....

Someone please help...any info/insight would be greatly appreciated!

Steph:( ???

Hi

My name is Rachael and my husband and I have been married for 2 1/2 years now. My husband has a child from a previous relationship who is now 6. He is a wonderful son, but we are looking to join this family even more with a baby. I had a m/c with a honeymoon baby. My cycle hasn't been the same since. We have been ttc for 1 1/2 years now. I haven't gone to the dr. because we don't have insurance right now. I am into herbs instead of medicine too. I found Ovulex and just started taking it 2 weeks ago. I am hoping that within the next few months I will be pg!

Has anyone heard of someone who has gone thru chemo and still conceived? I was 10 (I am 23 now) at the time, but went thru 11 cycles of intense chemo (noe radiation) for bone cancer. I didn't have AF yet, so the Dr.'s weren't sure I would ever get her. I did. Now they aren't sure if my eggs are good. Any suggestions? I know i O, but not sure how many times my eggs are good. My sister was on the pill and STILL got pg. No one on my mom's side has ever had fertility problems. Any suggestions will help! :)

Hi Everyone!

Just a quick question for you all. Has or is anyone using natural progesterone cream while taking Ovulex? I am thinking about adding it in next cycle.

This month is a bust for me.....I basically started bleeding right as I think I ovulated. Not sure if it from the ovulex or what. I am going to stick with it and see what happens.

Hey everyone~

How is everyone doing? Nothing much new with me, I started my last year of school EVER today so I'm excited for that! I had some pink spotting today but I'm only 2 dpo so I think it's most likely just my cycle adjusting after going off Ovulex. I don't know if I'm going to go on Clomid next cycle or not. DH really thinks I shouldn't, and I have heard that it has a lot of side effects. So I'm still trying to decide.

Lili~ That's awesome that your son is feeling better. Hopefully he will get and stay healthy. I did have temps that fluctuated a lot during my first month of Ovulex, but it was also the first month I started charting and I had a regular thermometer, so I thought that was the reason for it.

Steph~ I have read somewhere that you can ovulate while you're still bleeding. I think I read it in an article at babycenter. you might be able to google it and get an answer though. It is rare but possible if I remember right.

Rachael~ Welcome! Sorry, I don't really know an answer to your question. But good luck with ttc this month!

Springs~ I was planning to use progesterone cream this month but I didn't start in time, so I'm going to try it next month.

Everybody else, good luck and have a great night!

Leslie

Steph,

I saw your post and wanted to share this with you. A few months ago I ovulated on cd 5. I was spotting still from af and still ovulated. I was currently under medical treatment with an re and this was discovered on my day 9 u/s. They had explained to me that I most likely had a left over follicle that was not shed during af. In my case it was medications that cuased me to ovulate at that particular time. I started the meds and ovulated 2 days later. However since this happend to me I strongly believe that it can happen anytime.

Hope this helps.
Liz

LeslieAnn,
Thanks for thinking of my son. I took him yesturday at the doctor for a check up and he said that he is doing better, that thrush is going away, he said to give it some time for it to totally go away. But thanks god that he listen to our prayers.


-Lili

Hi, girls how every thing going? I'm on cd 21. Sure hope this could be the month, because sept. 11th I see a new RE. It would be nice to have to canel the appt.

Liz, I read at the bottom of your post that you got a BFP this month. Good Luck. When you did your injections did you do IUI also? I think that might be my next step. I did a IUI with clomid and no luck.

Springs, I don't know that much about progest., but when I did my IUI, I took progest. and my next period would not start until I stopped taking it. Mine may have been a high dosage? Good luck this month.

Rachel, Hi welcome, Sorry I can't help you with your question. Good luck this month. I will add you to my ttc prayer list.

Steph, I have heard that, that is possiable. Good luck.

Lili, is your son feeling better. May God bless a healing over his whole body and protect him from sickness.

Renee

Hello Ladies:

Sammy my heart goes out to you, but I wanted to say from experience - your baby is on the way! You have to keep believing and trusting in God.

Lilli I know this will be one of the most gross things you will ever hear but I promise it will work. My mom is a former southern mid-wife and she said if you wipe your son's tongue with one of his urined diapers it will clear up the infection. She has years of experience and I am 1 of 11 children - so clearly she knows something. Hope it helps...

Prayers are with you all......

Renee -

Thank you.
I started with the Repronex injections 2 cycles ago. We did 1 vile (75IU) per day. We did not do IUI. I have some problems with my homones so the re decided we should go with 2 viles per day (150IU) for the last cycle. He was concerned that my Estrodiol dropped after ovulation in the first cycle. I had a post colital test this last cycle that showed all is very good so again we did not need IUI. This was our month, everything was working in our favor and my ovaries were really working hard with the Repronex.

Before going on the injections I was scared. I read alot about it and studied all I could. I was impressed with the high success rates on the Repronex and decided to give it a shot. The one book I was reading said in reference to the Clomid vs Repronex (or another similar) that Clomid is like driving with your foot on the brake and the gas at the same time, the Repronex is driving only with your foot on the gas!

I wish you the best of luck.
Liz

Renee,
yes, thank god my son is feeling better! Thank you so much for your prayers!
So how are you feeling? Hows everything going with you?Hope this is your month. Good Luck.

Soon2bmommy,
Well thank you for the advise, I might try that if it doesn't go away completely. Hows everything coming along with your pregnancy? keep us posted!

I am on CD 17 now and my temp. are going up and down like crazy, I guess this is cause by the Ovulex, because before trying ovulex my temp. would be below 97.9 until that day after O they would raise up to 98.8. Now that I am on ovulex and notice since last month that they go up and down from 97.7 to 98.3 so what is this? i hope I show a clear O day this month because last month I didn't. I know that some of you had gone through this but it kinda of worries me? I hope I get lucky and ovulex works for me getting a BFP! I'll keep fingers crossed with my head up and all my prayers.
I'll keep you all in my prayers.
God bless
and thanks for caring!

-Love, Lili

LeslieAnn,
I think I have the right thermometer, the basal one? Isn't it the right one for BBT?

Hey everyone,

I started taking Ovulex the day before my most recent AF. I haven't had irregular cycles, just wanted to improve the CM, etc.

I wasn't suppose to start ovulation until next Wed. but according to the CM and OPTK I am...?..anyone else have a similiar experience?

Opinions and/or advice are sought and immensely appreciated.

Thanks and baby dust to all!

Liz, thank you so much for writing me back. My re wanted me to do the injectables, but said I could do clomid if I wanted, because I was afrid of mutilables. I had my son 3 1/2 weeks early and he only weighed 5 lbs and 4 oz. So I was afrid to have more than one. So they thought with clomid I would have a lesser chance of muilt. And with clomid I only made one egg. (I was hoping to have at least 2 eggs, to help my chances) If I knew the info. you just gave me I would have done injectables, no question. Do you know how many eggs you made? Thank you so much for the very important info. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, but how much did it cost each cycle with your drugs and tests. The next step maybe for us is IUI with injectables and in Nebraska it will cost us 1500.00.
Good luck and keep me posted on how every thing is going.

Lili, I feel pretty good. Not tring to think if I have any preg. symptoms, because every time I think I have them, Iam not preg. I think Ovulex makes you have all kinds of preg. symptoms. My temps are still up and they keep climbing up every day, I just hope that they get higher every day. My boobs are a little sore, but not as sore as early as last time and they are not as swollen yet either. I'm hoping that this is a good sign, since last month they were and they are not yet. I hope they get really swollen and sore about a couple 3 days before next excepted af. That was a good sign for me my first 2 preg. How's everything going for you.

I'm still praying for all of you ladies.
God bless
Renee

Steph,
It is possible for you to be ovulating, I have been told by a doctor that you can get preggo while AF is around. I found this website that answers some Questions. http://www.americanpregnancy.org
