I feel AF coming..

She is due today.. nothing but bad back pain and cramps.. so bummed..
For a girl who uses OPK's, has a 28 day cycle to the day- I can't figure out why I am not pregnant already!!! Hoping there is not a tube blockage but leaning to that theory more and more. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

** I just tested and BFN Chat Icon
Still no AF but spotting with cramps so I think it's inevitable! Chat Icon

** I just tested fmu- BFN again!
AF did not show still and I am now officially late. What the heck?!

** AF arrived this am.. Chat Icon

a lot of getting pregnant is just luck. i wouldn't jump to assume an issue (unless you are predisposed to having one). depending on your age, every cycle you have 25% or less chance of getting pregnant even if you do everything right. that means theres a 75% chance or over of NOT getting pregnant. and that's for perfectly healthy people.

good luck!

No, haven't tested.. don't really want to waste $ on the test, esp bc I feel it coming.

Well, I had surgery in '04 to remove endo and scarring in my tubes and RT ovary so I know my chances of it coming back are big. I was just hoping I could get preg on my own without having to get tests done.

How many months have you been TTC?



I have seriously been TTC meaning using OPK's and tracking my periods for ab 4 cycles. This will be my 5th if I get AF. I had a few issues which made me miss my O time so I don't want to really say it's 5 cycles but around there. Just bummed today.. guess AF hormones are kicking in LOL.

Re: I feel AF coming..

Well cramps and back pain are exactly what i have when i'm pg..you really never know!!

And it took me 4 cycles to get pg with my second son..that is with a perfect 28 day cycle, bd'ing during fertile period..you just never know. They say a year is normal, but it certainly feels long when it going on a few months!!

Good luck to you!! I hope this is your month!!!!

4-5 cycles is not a lot. At best, you have a 20% chance of conceiving in a given month.

Why would you assume you have a blocked tube? They are not that common. If you're getting +OPKs and have a regular cycle, I'd actually assume that you're perfectly healthy.

Good luck! Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm so, so sorry. I think AF is coming for me too. I started spotting just a bit today. It is totally my MO. I too can't believe it's already been 5 months. I'm so sad because it took 5 months for DS the first time around and I was so stupid to think that it would happen sooner this time. Chat Icon

You are not stupid at all to think that! I know a few friends who have gotten preg immediately when TTC. You never really know when it is YOUR time. Just keep your head up. I am cranky and trying to also. DS has been pretty sick the last few days so I have been preoocupied but trying to keep myself positive with this stupid spotting!

Re: I feel AF coming..

Thank you for all of the prayers and thoughts ladies.. AF came this am and I'm sad BUT I think I am starting to get my whole ovulation period. This cycle I BD'ed a few days before my smiley and the day of my smiley but could not BD any days after bc I got a YI .. and I got my O pains the day after my smiley.. So I'm thinking the OPK predicted my surge but I may have ovulated a few days later and missed my window bc my Dr said that when I feel my O pains, I should expect to release my egg within 24 hrs. I most likely missed my O window so next month I think I will have a better handle on it. I am planning on BD before my smiley- on my smiley day- the next three days after smiley.. and If I get my O pains, I am def BD'ing during and the next 2 days after.. Aiming for that June baby!! Good luck to everyone this cycle!!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm so sorry but it seems like you have a great plan for next month and a positive attitude! June babies are the best anyway (DS is a June baby). It's a great month for outdoor parties! Chat Icon
