Newbie

Hi everyone. I'm a newlywed. My husband and I were together for 9 years before we got married this past September. We've recently decided that we would TTC, even though I've been off the pill for over a year. I saw my OB at end of Oct and asked what we need to do. Well I missed my period Nov. 25th and I've been regular since May. Plus, I think I OV Nov. 14th. I took a test the next night, BFN. I took one this past Tuesday, still BFN. I have been nauseous, bloated and I definitely have exaggerated sense of smell (which stinks since I'm a nurse and work in a hospital!) My OB's office said to wait a few weeks and then I have to go in for BW if no AF. My question is, how long do I need to wait before I take a PT again?? I'd like to know it's not in my head. And my BB started to get sore last night. Thanks for any advice any of you ladies can offer

    If you ovulated 3+ weeks ago, an HPT would be positive by now. It's quite possible that you ovulated late. Keep testing once a week until your period starts or until you've hit 60 days. At that point your dr will give you progesterone to kick start a new cycle.

    Taking a pregnancy test the day after you think you ovulated is guaranteed to be negative.

    I would suggest the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility and/or the tutorial on fertilityfriend.com to learn more about your cycle and get a handle on things.

    If your DR said a few eeks, then I would wait a few weeks then go in for it. The packaging says take a new test every 3 days id BFN. GL Im in the same boat!

    Thanks! I should probably clarify what I said after reading your post..I tested the night after I missed my AF. I will definitely check out the website though. Thanks!!! I hope it's positive though (whenever I do test again). It's been a pretty sad year and we could use some good news!
