I got a positive OPK this morning. On CD 11. In shock, I checked my cervix and it was soft and open and producing some nice mucus. Fertility Friend says I am to ovulate sometime between CD 11 and CD 13. This is bananas. With and without Clomid my typical ovulation day is right at CD 19. This is so fun! It is so fast! It is like a whirlwind! I love Femara!
I need to call my RE and see if and how this changes things. I wasn’t scheduled to go in until tomorrow morning for the monitoring ultrasound. OMG! What if we trigger today and do the IUI tomorrow? This is such uncharted territory. Is it possible to ovulate too soon? CD 12?
I must say, after months and months and months of 32-35 days cycles, this feels like nothing short of a miracle. Even though we aren’t moving forward on the path I would prefer, moving forward on the expedited, moving path, much like the walkways at an airport, is really quite refreshing. Essentially, we are able to cut out one entire week from my cycle. At this rate, instead of 11 cycles per year, I will have 13.5 cycles per year. That is three extra opportunities to make a baby per annum. That’s fun.
Femara rocks.
And I can personally state that cd12 is not too soon to ovulate. I ovulated on cd 11 and got a BFP ten days later.
Good luck! Keeping everything crossed for you!
It is magical!
Awesome! I say run with it! Crossing fingers that this is a lucky break with many more to come!
Now that sounds a lot more efficient. My cycles are about the same length as yours, and I’ve always thought it annoying to have to waste 20-25% more time than somebody with an average cycle.
Get to it!
It IS so annoying. I once was on an online forum with a woman that had a 23 day cycle. She lapped me twice. She then got pregnant and I recused myself and moved over to the IF world.
Yay you!!! Things will be great! Sending good vibes your way. Xoxo
Yes!! This is great! Super exciting, you are on the fast track now!!
Hooray, fantastic, keep it up ovaries! I am all for more shots at the target.
That’s amazing! I’m a CD16-19 ovulater myself when I was on Clomid… cannot imagine what a relief it would be to cut out a few days of bullshit. Yay! Exciting.
It really is a relief. Warp speed.
Woo hoo! Cd11 sounds good, we did our iui on cd 13 this month and it seems to have gone well…
Ha! It certainly did go well!
Femara pushed up my ovulation date on my first round (didn’t do squat on the 2nd boo). Fingers crossed this one is the one for you!
Boo! Why are ovaries so fickle!
Femara got me to ovulate MUCH earlier too…good luck!
How exciting! Good luck!
Femara helps me ovulate sooner too! Best wishes!
OOooo! Sending so many good vibes to you darling!!!
Whoa!! Go with it. I never took Femara, but it sounds like it’s working!!
Nice!! I’m SO glad that Femara is treating you well! I was really hopeful it would. FX that this cycle is the one.
Its bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
Ahem sorry. Gwen Stefani moment. Anyways I’m so glad Femara is kicking ass and taking names! I’ve never tried it personally but I hear good things. I’m hoping it produces some excellent results for you!
That’s great! I’ve never been on femara so no idea there, but on my succesful cycle (on injectables) I triggered CD12 and had my IUI CD13. So I definitely don’t think it’s too soon!
That can only be a good thing! Good luck
