With polycystic ovaries there is also the increased chance of 1st trimester miscarriages, so i would rather not get pregnant than have a miscarriage.
6 months is not a long time to try, even without fertility problems, even if it does feel like it.
OOOO *bounces* we could be pregnant
Around the time of ovulation, some women feel a dull pain on one side of the lower abdomen. This pain is known as mittelschmerz (literally, middle pain). The pain may last for a few minutes to a few hours. The pain is felt on the same side as the ovary that released the egg, but the precise cause of the pain is unknown. The pain may precede or follow the rupture of the follicle and may not occur in all cycles. Egg release does not alternate between the two ovaries and appears to be random. If one ovary is removed, the remaining ovary releases an egg every month.
If this was the case, I'd have got this pain over a week ago when my ovulation test was positive tho right?
So if your ovulating regularily you may not notice any pain around ovulation, and this could be mild implantation pain.
When are you due?
Youve been trying for a while and doing all the right things, so theres a fairly good chance that you will be, or if youre not, it will be within the next few months, so dont get too downhearted - sometimes it just takes a little more time than youd like.
Exciting for monday though!! I hope its + for you!!
awwww, thats my little boys birthday!!!
Lol, my husbands (and his dads) birthday is on 07/02 so it would be smiles all round if we both got the + sign in the next few days
The makers of expensve pregnacy tests have a huuuuuge mark up on them and its for no other reason than "because they can" They all detect the same stuff.
I researched a bit into it when I was TTC, and a sensitive pregnancy test is one that detects 20 - 25 mIU (how much HCG hormone in your wee)
The cheap one from poundland detected 25Miu - exactly the same sensitivity as clearblue and first response.
I got my + on a poundland test 3 days before my period was due.
That DOESNT mean to say that everyone does get a result that early though, Try again tommorow maybe and then if thats - and you dont come on, try again in a few days.
please dont keep wasting your money on the expensive ones though. Youll bankrupt yourself. theyre a con.
:yes:
You can buy cheap dipstick tests on the internet in bulk. I got 25 sticks for £5.
Sorry Janjan
When they say you can test early, it doesnt mean that its just as reliable when you test early as when you test on time.
no If there wasnt enough hormone yet to be detected, you wont get any line at all.
The hormone should double every two days, so maybe retake a test on tuesday, and then thursday if you still havent come on.
I'm not exactly hopefully, but until I come on there's no point being too sure. As I said earlier my gums have been bleeding quite alot this week when brushing (sign according to the net), also I've had a tight feeling between my ovaries where the fallopian tube meets. But I could just be reading too far into it, I really hope not.
does that mean there would literally be no result/line at all? or it would just be negative because its not picking it up
both. There would be no line because there wouldnt be enough hormone to cause the chemical reaction that makes the line appear.
Its very easy to get a false negative if you test too early.
I know it can be hard to wait, but sometimes it pays to be patient.
