Hi there,
My husband and I will be actively trying to conceive this month. I have stopped using retin-A, but I'm wondering if my husband needs to also stop using it. If you have any suggestions or advice, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure I could call my dermatologist tomorrow, but I wondered if anyone out there has had this experience before.

Well i was late on my period and the last possible day i could have my cycle i had bleeding but it was bright red, thin, almost like it was 1 part blood and 2 parts water and i would "dry out" by mid day and have no period by the end of the day. It happened for 5 days (normal cycle length) but it didnt feel right at all. The things i go through when i have my cycle (cravings, irritations, cramps) didnt happen. I did 4 EPT tests (the one that says "pregnant" "not pregnant") in the morning using a cup. 1st day pregnant, 2nd day not pregnant, 3rd day pregnant, 4th day not pregnant. waited a week went to hospital had urine test taken, said not pregnant (test required morning urine, i gave them mid day). Bought cheap tests that same week and over the days it said not pregnant (using morning urine in a cup). So the question is am i pregnant or not and if not was it possible that i miscarried, failed to fertilize or the egg drop or something? i never had a false positive. what i can i do???

Hi girls. We are ttc and I have 2 questions--1. At the doc's office when they do test for progesterone (to confirm ovulation), if the conception did take place and the test is done aroung 8 days after ovulation, will it show positive pregnancy too, or they check for different hormone only? 2. With the last period that was pretty weird (less than usual bleeding, and 1 day passing some clots) any idea of having got pregnant should be absurd. But what could it be that I am feeling nausious, boobs got enlarged and a bit sore, mild cramping and high soft cervix? I don't keep my hope since it is silly, but I just don't get the point what's going on. By the way, additional question-- when you check for cervix before ovulation, is it the same firmness in the morning and evening? Mine feels a bit firmer in the morning and very soft in the evening... Is it normal?
Thanks for serios answers, and please don't answer if you only want to get points...

Okay, so my husban is a forest firefighter which takes away from home a lot....which makes it kind of hard to get pregnant. While he is gone on fires, he is usually gone for 2 weeks. My question is, because we can't have sex during this time, and his sperm is built up, is this bad? He gets home tomorrow, and I got my first positive ovulation test today. What are the chances of conceiving and are his sperm going to be good? Kind of a funny question!

i have posted before, but i need some extra advice please = )
i have been reading several websites where they all say that you can get pregnant anytime, not just when you are ovulating.
my husband and i are ttc. my last period started june 25th. we have been trying since june 15th.
my periods tend to be a bit irregular. they always come, but over the course of 6 months, they tend to arrive around a week early each month.
lately i have been experiencing what i think are pregnancy symptoms.
my symptoms include:
my breasts seem to get a bit bigger each day and are very sore.
larger bumpy areoles and nipples (nipples are getting darker and stick out more)
little headaches that come and go several times a day
queasy throughout the day
my sense of smell is a bit stronger
extreme fatigue that requires a long nap each day
just a general odd "not feeling so well" feeling
a runny nose

it is too early to take a test. could this mean that i am infact pregnant?

...How soon after ovulation/conception did you begin to have pregnancy symptoms?

What were those symptoms?

Thanks a bunch!

I seem to be having all the pregnancy symptoms in the book but the sore breasts. And I wasn't having nausea either, but just last night, that started up.
Usually, by breasts get sore before my period comes, but my period is due either today or tomorrow, and there is no soreness whatsoever!

I can test today, but I'm waiting til tomorrow morning.

Anyway, I'm just wondering how many women out there had symptoms before they tested positive, but still no tender or sore boobs.

Thanks in Advance!

I went to the Dr for my monthly diet pills and he came in the room and told me he would not be able to prescribe them this month b/c my pg test came back positive. However, a couple of days after this, I started my period and its really heavy. Im really confused now. Has anything like this ever happened to anyone? Ive had 2 other pregnancies and this did not happen.

I mean considering the egg has to travel down the fallopian tubes and then if not fertilized you get a period...what happens if the fallopian tubes are blocked and the egg can't travel? I would assume you wouldn't have a period(or what period you would have would only be due to the uterine lining deteriorating)..

I have been charting my temps this month for the first time. I believe that I ovulated on Monday the 9th. Well my temps went up from normaly around 97. 5 or so to 97.81 then I had a fall back temp on dpo 2 (which I know can be normal on this day). Then I had a really high temp of 97.99 and then on dpo 4 (today) I had a low temp of 97. 42. Has anyone experienced this so early after ovulation? I don't think implantation can happen this early so I have ruled that out. ? Any help would be great!

Thanks Alot!!

Before ttc, l always have mucus sign and abominal cramps as sign of my ovulation, but since 2months am ttc, l have not visibly noticed the mucus sign during my ovulation period, only the cramps, but this month l have the cramps and pinkish and brownish discharge during the ovulation time.

Do you think l still ovulate or most l have the mucus?

I've noticed that my basal temperature has been lower than my previous cycles (during my period now).

The only thing I could think of being different is that I'm on holidays and that I'm not active and basically just sit around at home all day. Would this lower my basal temperature?

My temp. used to be 36.3-36.5 before ovulation. This cycle it has been around 36.2 and even 36.1 for one day. I'm concerned because would this affect my fertility? I'm afraid my temp. would be too low.

I started my cycle on June 13. Just 2 days ago it felt like I was ovulating. I would normally be getting my period right about now. Nothing like this has ever happened before. I have had one successful pregnancy and one miscarriage which was over a year ago. Everything has been fine since then but now my body kind of feels achy and like it did when I had my miscarriage. I took a pregnancy test today but I think it only picks up the hormone at 100 mui. Any suggestions on what might be going on here?

My husband and I started trying last month for a baby, after a week or two, I knew I wasn't pregnant and then today got my period. I was ok with because there is alot I needed to accomplish this month, so I wasn't feeling that bad. For the last couple of days I have been super biatchy and super emotional. I usually get a little whiny when I pms, but not like this. Could my subconcious be more upset than I feel I am. I mean, I was upset but not like "cry my eyes out shake my fist at god" kind of upset. Anyone else ever feel like that after finding out your not preggers?

I went into the emergency room in January due to stomach problems where they found a ovarian cyst. I have stomach problems also but the simple ovarian cyst has not gone away. My husband and I had been trying to concieve for some time now to no avail. I had an ovarian cycst on both ovaries at one point in between the one on my left ovary came and went in the same month but the one on my right ovary wont go away on its own. So since my doctor doesn't want to do surgery she has decided I need to go on birth control she gave me free samples of nuva ring. I really do not want to be on birth control at all. Does anybody have any other suggestions on how to get the cyst to go away? I can't seem to get pregnant the doctor thinks if the cyst goes away it will be easier, but how will it be easier to get pregnant if I have been on birth control?
