Uhg!
This is a discussion on Uhg! within the TTC - 6+ Months forums, part of the Trying to Conceive - Age and Experience category; I would really like to know what is wrong with me. My bb's are still big and sore, I'...
I would really like to know what is wrong with me. My bb's are still big and sore, I'm bloated and now my nipples are starting to get itchy. I have made an appointment to see a new GYN but I have to wait until the 30th. I've excepted the fact that all of the pregnancy tests that I've taken have been negative but apparently my body can't. I know it's not all in my mind either. I was lying on the floor on my stomach today and noticed how big my bb's really have gotten. They aren't so sore that I can't even touch them but they have gotten a lot more tender in the last week especially the sides. I just want to know what is going on with me!!
Anyone have any ideas?

I was expecting af on March 28th. I don't know what day I ovulated. But it's April 18th! And NO AF!!! I had four negative hpt's and my beta hcg was 0 as of 4/11/08. So I can't wait to find out what the doctor thinks.

wow I am not sure what to think og all that. I hope that af comes soon for you, OR better yet you just O'd a little late and you will be getting a BFP in a few days here!!
Keep us posted. When you are not sure where you are in your cycle it can make it so frustrating!! Could you take a temp and see where it is? If it is on the higher end then you will know you at least O'd sometime, and are in your lp of the cycle.

Well what makes me leary is that my hcg was 0. Wouldn't I at least have a little in there by then? I don't know. Maybe I'm one of those weird women that don't get a positive test until way late in her pregnancy. It's just frustrating. I'm really anxious for my appointment. I just want to know what is going on.

I have been diagnosed with PCOS. My Doctor started me on Provera. He believes that this medication plus weight loss will get my cycles back on track. We didn't discuss the fact that I may be pregnant. All of the negative tests were proof enough that I am not. So he told me to take one more hpt just to be sure then start the Provera right away. I thought it would be so funny if I took the test just to make sure an it came out a BFP. But alas it was not. So I started the provera today and will keep taking it for 10 days. I should see af when the pills are gone. I'm glad I at least have a plan of action now. Thanks for the encouraging words everyone. I'm going to need more of it!

I am sorry for the dignosis of PCOS. But at least you now what you are dealing with here and they can help you.
I have taken Provera MANY times to start af when I needed it. I hope soon your cycles will get more regular and you get a bfp very soon!!

Thank you for the kind words. If there are any ladies reading this I would love some advice about this. I took my last Provera yesterday and have been bding regularly. Is it too much to hope to concieve while taking it for the first time? Probably. I have been really discouraged this whole week. I see a lot of girls that get pregnant with no problem and it makes me mad cuz most of them shouldn't have children, whether it be right now or ever. Today my husband got a call from his best friend and told him that he and his fiancee who is almost 20 and already an alcoholic are now expecting. I think he got more mad than I did. But don't get me wrong I was feeling so many emotions and angry was definetly one of them. We don't like her to begin with and were hoping they would break up before making the big mistake of marrying eachother but now they are linked for life. I'm getting off topic. Like I said before, anyone with PCOS I welcome your advice cuz I'm clueless!

I'm pretty sure that Provera is used to bring on your period so that you can start a new cycle after your period is over. I don't think provera will help you get pg while you're taking it.
Once your period is over, you can start to take your temperature every day at the same time (Fertility friend has free charts that you can use). Taking your temperature at the same time every morning before you get out of bed will help you get the proper results every time. After a few cycles you'll start to see what is normal for you. You can look at other people's charts to get an idea of how it should look. For me, my temps would go down for 2-3 days and then spike up really high. The day before the spike is usually your ovulation day. Since you have PCOS and don't ovulate regularly or possibly not at all some cycles, you could go for quite a while before you see a temp shift. Each individual temperature isn't as significant as the big picture (thermal shift)
Maybe you know all that already, I don't know.
Provera (if that's what it is) is not used to help you get pg.

No I didn't know that already, thank you! I know that Provera isn't a fertility drug, I know its purpose is to make af come. But I recall my doctor saying that during this whole process of getting af to come I could get pg. He said it has happend but don't rely on it, just focus on getting my periods regular again. I was really just thinking out loud when I said that. You know how it is, you want it so bad that you get outlandish thoughts in your head. And since we has no idea where my cycle was he just had me take an hpt one more time and just start it. So as of right now I have no idea what my body is doing, I would really like to know. Where do I get a basal thermometer? I really didn't want to chart but in my new situation I think it may make things easier. Can I just buy one at a regular department store?

I am not sure where girls get a basal. I use a normal everyday thermomitor and I seem to do ok with it.
I agree that temping would be a good thing for you. I know it is a pain, but when you have irregular cycles like you and me, it is nice to see by a chart if and when you O. That way you know where in your cycle you are as well.
hmm I never known that you have to be invited to FF to be able to join. I'll see what i can do for you. I never invited anyone before but I will try.
