Help - Did I screw up my IUI

I might just be going off and I hope I am wrong but…

I got a bfn on my hpt 13dpiui and had a very very light spotting. Well, I immediately gave up and stopped taking my prometrium that day. Now, I am bleeding up a storm (a lot more than usual). I am so scared that I may have been pg and now having an early mc. I had an hcg today and will find out tomorrow. This is the worst.


How blasted ironic is this? I am hoping my hcg comes back negative…. Because if it is positive, then I will feel like I screwed it up big time…

Word to the wise, never never give up until the BETA. I feel like a fool.

This is posted elsewhere too, I just need some advice/comments...

I don't think that stopping the prometrium screwed things up. It likely just brought on AF.

Hang in there.

NotChicken - Any update?

I may postpone POAS until Aug. 1. Not sure. I feel nervous to do it tomorrow in case it is too soon.

I don't know how you hold out TeamH. I POAS to see what a positive looked like after the trigger. I POAS at 10 dpiui to 'make sure the trigger shot is out of my system' and will probably test tomorrow, friday and saturday. (unless i get a tomorrow) It's totally a mental game for me and I guess, I buy the cheapie internet tests so it doesn't cost much.

anyways, I hope you get your soon!!

NotChicken, did you get your beta test?

Isn't this grand. The nurse at the RE's office said that sometimes you do not get AF when on progesterone, but should get it if you are not pregnant w/in a few days of stopping.

Great, I have been feeling like AF has been coming and hoping that her not coming was a good sign when in fact it may just be that the progesterone is keeping her at bay.

I may test tomorrow. I just feel like I may be disappointed.

Mima - Did you have AF type symptoms around the time of your Beta?

My boobs are sore, and they don't usually get sore, but I think that is b/c of the progesterone and the Estradiol.

How are you feeling?

Good luck to everyone testing this week, I'm rooting for you! Let us know how it goes.

I had my second beta today, and it was 940. Yay! My first ultrasound is on August 21st, which, right now, seems SOOO far away. that the little bean decides to stick around and set up camp ;-)

Congratulations NotChicken!!! Yay, you're :-) I, too, read that anything over 25 is positive, and that it's not so much how high the number is (everyone is different), but that it doubles every 48 hours. You should have a better idea after the next test. Congrats again! How unreal does it feel????!!!

**NotChicken -- congrats on ur BFP!!!
