Still waiting patiently for DH to come back. Wonder if will be able to try for the next cycle before he goes reservist. haiz... Cannot do anything.. argggghhhh!!!!

oh ic ... can understand when especially your DH is not back yet and once back.... still have to go on reservist next after that.... My HB also going on reservist most likely in Oct.... hopefully wont fall into the fertile period too ......
Wondering.... how come u on clomid in the 1st place?? Izzit that if u not on clomid, no O?

jaspire: i have been tracking my BBT for 6 cycles liao...if your temp goes up after ur so-called O days then most likely have O..OPK can only test LH surge..LH surge may not means u will 100% O.....to me, it's a tool to help u narrow down ur fertility window...i will test two times a day abt CD13-14..and also test until the test line disappear
wannababy
ya. it seems that if I'm not on clomid, no O.
you know what's worst. DH going to reservist in Sept. There is a 1 month period when he comes back and go reservist. The problem is that my system is so screwed up. I got no bloody idea when my AF will report and if I'll hit the fertile period(on clomid) when he's not around again.

Jaspire,
When we are sick, it's not that "O" won't occur, it might be delayed, I remember when I was v sick in April, (sick for almost a month) my AF came later than usual, and I was v dry thru'out..

The earliest that a sensitive blood test can pick up any HCG at all is 5-7 days after ovulation.
Extremely sensitive home pregnancy tests might in some cases be reliable as soon as 12 dpo.
Considering that it is possible to implant as late as 10 dpo, a qualitative beta might produce a false negative if used for an early pregnancy test.

Hi Eternitystar, my AF din come later... it came ontime as expected but i was v dry thru'out. No CM like dat. So I think prob i din O loh and I still dun really know why or maybe i O but din know loh. LOLx. Anyway, will keep trying... esp this cycle, i oni have limited window period to try cos i will be flying to HK on 13th Aug again. If O late... then i will completely miss it tis cycle. I am keeping my fingers crossed that it will come and not be late...

Estrogen
Estrogen begins surging through the body roughly three or more days before ovulation. This causes the cervical fluid to be clear, thin and stretchy*. This type of cervical fluid is referred to as egg-white cervical mucus" or "ewcm. EWCM offers the best mode of travel for the sperm to get to the egg.
The high levels of estrogen prompts the release of luteinizing hormone (LH). The surge of LH causes the egg to actually come out of its follicle. The time period from which ovulation occurs and a woman's menstruation is called the luteal phase (LP). The average length of time during LP is 12 to 16 days long. The LP, however, can be longer or shorter. An LP shorter than 10 days is considered deficient in progesterone, and is unable to maintain a pregnancy. There are measures to increase the LP, such as hormone therapy and/or herbal and vitamin supplements. No matter what day a woman ovulates, she can always tell approximately what day her menstrual cycle will begin, or what day to take a pregnancy test.
With the collapse of the follicle, a corpus luteum forms.
Progesterone
The corpus luteum begins producing progesterone - the hormone that helps maintain the uterine lining long enough for a fertilized egg to implant. Progesterone is responsible for raising the basal body temperature, also known as the "warm hormone." If a woman is charting her temperatures, she should be able to tell that she had ovulated by an upward shift in her daily basal body temperature. A drop in progesterone signals the body to begin shedding the uterine lining, thus bringing on menstruation.
Stress and Your Health
If pregnancy is the goal, its extremely important to have intercourse around the time of ovulation, preferably right before, or during, ovulation. Sometimes a womans body can prepare for ovulation and release all the right hormones, and stress will halt the process. Vacations, moving, company or anything that causes undue stress, can delay ovulation until the woman is at peace and relaxed again.
The role of hormones combined with the womans state of health - sick or stressed, determines when and if ovulation occurs.
Sometimes ovulation does occur on day 14, but this is, by far, not the rule. Because the different elements that bring about ovulation can be varied or interrupted, its safe to say that ovulation can occur at any point in the cycle, and not the day 14 that so many people once believed.
