Ok ladies, I am on 17dpo and still getting a BFN. I am on cd 38 and my cycles are usually 34 or 35 days long. I am trying not to get my hopes up. I used OPK and that is how i know when I o'd but no sign of AF here. I have been having breast soreness/tenderness for the past week or so. No migraine like usual with AF. I have my yearly pap tomorrow so I guess I will find out for sure then. Please keep me in your prayers because I am not wanting to hear we aren't AGAIN. I am just getting really frustrated with this whole TTC thing. I find myself trying to give it up to God's control but then I try to make deals with Him. I am really struggling with letting go, I am such a control freak!! Thanks for listening!

You and your body have gone through so much, I am glad you had an appointment so that you can hopfully find out what is going on.

Trust God!

no, nobody said anything about problems after donation. I asked my OB if I would still be ok having more kids and he said that it wouldn't be an issue if I did. I will ask him about that tomorrow. We stopped trying around jan 07 because we knew the donation was going to happen but before that it had been 1 year with 2 pregnancies that ended in m/c . Anyway thanks for the heads up. I will keep you guys posted.

Heather,
I'm so sorry for what you've been through the last while... I totally hear what you mean about being a control freak... I'm struggling too to let God take control, but every day is a new day and a new opportunity to give it to to Him more completely than the day before! Let us know how things go tomorrow at your appointment.

Blessings!
Sarah

Well, I didn't go to my appointment because AF showed up!! I was kinda relieved because then I had an answer as to what was going on. The wondering whether I'm pregnant or not is the worst part. I am going to try to totally let control of this and give it up to God. I think the only way for me to totally do that is to not do OPK and to just let whatever happens happen. If I use the OPK then I know when I o'd and we have sex so then when I don't get pregnant I wonder what went wrong because we did things right. Anway, please pray that I can relax about this and give it to God totally. Thanks!!

I peronally don't think OPK work as effectively as testing CM. I got pregnant with one shot using the CM testing method. A friend of mine who had trouble conceiving also used this method and, while she didn't get pregnant as fast as I did, she did get pregnant within 6 months of trying.
