Hi there....
So my name is Carleen and I've been reading posts on this forum for nearly a year. My DP Sarah and I have been TTC for 2 cycles (via home insemination, no meds, 2 viles per cycle 1st try at 6 & 24 and 2nd try at 12 & 24) with the third try I thought falling right after our 9 year anniversary...but it's 2 days later and my digital OPK still says I haven't peeked but the OPK sticks we got in my deluxe insem kit from NW say I have peeked?!?!
We did one insem last night, just trying to switch it up and maybe have the sperm waiting for the egg to drop. We do use a speculum and I just started temping. My temps the last few days have been 96.05, 96.17, 96.15, 96.36, 96.57, and 97.05 this morning. I just don't know what to think with all of my "norms" being all thrown off.
I'll be turing 36 this August and have had all of the BW, ultrasound and tests done except for tubal blockage test. My last appt with my OBGYN in March she said my AMH was a little low but nothing that worried her. I've been using a digital OPK for 2 years with 2 peak day results and have "normal" cycles, that is until I actually started TTC... The first try, my OPK had me peak a day earlier than normal, with 1st insem 6 & 24 hours later. AF came 12 days later right on time hard and heavy which isn't normal. Second try was at 12 & 24 hours with AF coming WAY early at 9 DPI with brown spotting for 24hours and then light red for 24 hours before heavy bleeding which also isn't normal for me.
I'm trying to stay positive and not fall into the obsessed category; Sarah is very supportive as are family and friends. I have a friend who tried for 8 months naturally with her DH, did 3 months of Dr. Asst IUI's and one IVF and gave up. 5 months later and she is now 10 weeks pregnant. Makes me hopefull and so very happy for her!
That's all I suppose. Thanks to everyone for being so open and sharing your good and not so good with all of the newbies. It helps and makes me feel connected to something so wonderful.
