Trying to Get Pregnant

Back from Ob/Gyn

I went for my regular pap and it took a lot for me not to test this morning...but what I couldn't believe is that, with so much pride, I whip out my chart and start blabbing about, well FF said that I O'd on the 19th, so I'm 9 DPO today, etc, etc...and he pretty much just looked at the calendar and threw out the FOURTEEN DAY RULE!@?#!@#? I was like are you kidding me, after all my tempting, EWCM observing, temping, you're gonna throw out the 14-day rule. Now, to his credit, he might have thought bc last cycle was a 28 day cycle, that was the case, but dude, it totally threw me off...someone said it, and I'll say it again, ppl on here I think know more about TTCing and Oing that the professionals!

Re: Back from Ob/Gyn

  • My family doctor said that to me also. Even after I told him that I do not ovulate till later. He said "no you O 2 weeks after your period." Indifferent And he used to be a birthing doctor.

    Some people!

  • You timing and chart look good. Don't fret. Sometimes, medical doctors put way too much emphasis on what their textbooks say and not enough on real life. I show my MW the past three cycles, one had a 14 day LP and the other two had 12 day LPs. I threw out her 14-day rule and told her my body is just regulating from BC and all she could say is, "Well, your LP should be the same each month." I smiled because THAT is true.

  • I think you need to take those "education for docs" pages out of the back of TCOYF and give them to your doc. Sounds like he could use some educatin'!

  • Here, here. My GP was amazed at my charts and literally said, "you did this all on your own?" I was like, "uhhh, yeah?!" Thankfully, my OB and R/E are much better versed in charting and all that. Geez.
  • I just had a check up yesterday and talked to my doctor about TTC.  and she told me that most women O 2 weeks BEFORE their period.  For a second I was like "Please don't tell me what I already know isn't true" but it seems like she knows her stuff.  :)
