I just phoned the dr office for the results of my blood test and the doctor told me that I didn't ovulate. So everything that I have been feeling has NOTHING to do with pregnancy....does this make sense??? I know it's not all in my head...the sore bbs, the cramping..it's all real and very annoying....I have tears in my eyes because I really thought I had ovulated. I had the EWCM and everything...this just doesn't make sense.
Oh Nicole, I am sooo sorry!!!!! Crossing my fingers that they are WRONG!
Hugs,
Elizabeth

Oh man, Nicole!!! I think I know how you feel. There was one cycle where everything was perfect...I had ovulation cramping right around O time, I had a little spotting 5dpo, I had sore bbs (which I had never had before, at the time, but now I guess it's a new AF symptom. yay.), and I had light cramping. AF was a few days late...it looked so promising. Then, BAM! AF. I don't know what happened...early m/c or what. It was horrible. I want to scream in frustration, on your behalf, because I know it really sucks.
I hope everything works out for the best!

Thanks Ladies. I am just so confused. I know I had EWCM and then Ovary pains three days later....I had all the symptoms but I know regardless of if she is wrong about me ovulating....my progestrone is obviously low which means that for sure I am not pg....not matter if I did O and just didn't test in time or not, I am definately not pg.
I know now that this is going to be a long journey for me. I don't think I have ovulated since August. I am so angry with my body, I can't even describe it. I was ovulating just fine up until I got married and then it stopped and now I have to wait until Jan to see my dr and see what she says and then I have to probably start taking Clomid or whatever she is going to put me on and then see how that goes. I always hoped it wouldn't take me too long to get pg but I always knew deep down that it would be a struggle. It's very upsetting for me. I am wondering now if maybe I have PCOS or something.

Hi Nicole:
I just read your post and had to write to say how sorry I am to hear about your news from the dr and how much I understand your pain!!! I know how sad and frustrating that must be for you, and I know words probably don't help much but I guess this is just to show solidarity! Hang in there! I also had a month with lots of symptoms that were different and I was pretty sure I was pg, and like you, was crushed. Sometimes I wish our bodies weren't so complicated.
I know January must seem far away, but it is good that you have an appointment to start taking the steps you need to get your BFP. It can be a frustrating and difficult journey, this TTC. I'll be thinking of you! Lately I've been trying to focus on the fact that though I want a BFP NOW (it feels like we have been trying for so long, and it's hard to keep positive) I know that when we DO get our BFP, that will be the most important thing, and that the time, the frustration and sadness we went through to get it, will melt away. Stay strong Nicole!
Alice thank you for your kind words brought tears to my eyes. I honestly hate this whole ttc journey. I am happy I have you all for support but I honestly don't even know what to think anymore. I decided to take an opk test to see if it said anything and it had a test line but not as dark but last week I took one and it had no test line atall so I am happy there was a test line this time but it still means nothing to me. Im going to try and enjoy my life with hubby and not think about a baby. It will be hard but I need to try.
