The Journey of Bex


Hi All

Enjoyed reading everyone elses journal so much thought I would start one of my own.

Me and OH decided beginning this month we would start TTC. Had planned to marry next year then TTC but after a chat both realised we want a baby first.

My intention was to come off the pill and "see what happens". Unfortunately though it hasn't worked out that way and I am now becoming a bit obsessive

So to bring you all up to speed...

As it was my first month off the pill for years was unsure how long my natural cycle lasts, when i ovulate etc.

Decided to buy some OPK's and have been testing from CD15 as this is when I thought I would maybe start OVing.

Started to wish I hadn't bothered as I now have had 4 strong positives for the last 4 days and am paranoid my body is messed up !

I think my AF is due either 25th or 27th June but not sure so think I will probably need to accept this month my body is just settling back into life before the pill and start monitoring my OV etc next month.

Thanks for reading xx

Well according to my OPK's I am still ovulating

That is 5 days in a row I have had a strong positive, could swear the test line is getting stronger too.

Was thinking last night that I came off the pill four weeks ago this Saturday so who knows when af will turn up but reckon I will need to stop ov'g first for it to come.

Just hoping my body doesn't take too long to settle down into a normal cycle.

Hi

4 weeks since you came off the pill?? Have you tried a HPT?? Are your opks maybe duds?
I'm sure I read somewhere that sometimes a positive OPK can occur when you are pregnant. Theoretically since an opk detects LH and it is very similar in shape and size to HcG, you can test positive on an opk for pregnancy.....If I was you I would try a hpt. Good luck either way!
