thanks ladies...so I got home and there was more red stuff but not like a full on period. So of course I start immediately crying and calling the dr at the same time. Why do these things happen when the office closes?

So the dr called back and said that it could implantation bleeding or breakthrough from my higher dose on the gonal f...but to watch it over night and call the office in the am. So thats what I'll do. Although I am super bummed out about it - mostly since I dont know what that means for me. I was having a very positive day today too. Shoot!

Hope you all are having a better night than me!

Well Ladies I'm out this month with you guys. I went Monday for my progestrone check(cd22) and when I got my results I thought I was going to fall out of my chair. Who comes back with a level of .876. ME THATS WHO! Which the nurses says is indignant with my cycle of stims and how well I responded with my follicle growth. So I was told to come back and repeat my progestrone check again Friday. Well low and behold I started spotting last night and had horrible cramps all afternoon and evening. Well it got worse and today she arrived, so what would be cd24 is now cd1. I am so confused why my cycle was such a bust and according to my RE he is a little puzzled too. Well that makes me feel better, NOT.
So I go for u/s tomorrow and hopefully this new cycle will be better. In the meantime I am wishing you guys lots of luck.

Team H hoping tomorrow is
Jess and Alisa I hope the remainder of this 2ww goes quick and I will for

I thought your follies looked great...you had so many and the size was good...what did she mean by that remark? Good luck next month! Think forward!

[OCEANLOVER]

Thanks for the encouragement Babygood1.
The nurse meant that it was very unusual for someone to have responded so well to the meds and get follies that size and then not ovulate. So now I am questioning my Ovidrel injection since I triggered on cd 14, funny thing was I was just curious to see if it would still detect on a preg.test at 7dpiui and I got which I was told it would stay in your system for up to 10 days. Even my RE asked me yesterday if my Ovidrel was ok, not crack in the syringe or if any of it leaked out. I didn't see any of that. Then he also told me that according to my prog. level and getting my AF that number was on track with my system, just not calendar days since I was only on cd24. Oh well, its hard to get the whole thing out of head when god knows these meds are not cheap, but this morning I am going for my u/s with a positive attitude.

[alisa]

Oceanlover - I think you and I are cycle sisters this month! The same thing has happened to me. Now I really question that Ovidrel I had - because I never really felt the ovulating pains like I have in the past.

I had my IUI on CD 10 and what I was told was breakthrough bleeding can be nothing else but AF - she came on with a vengeance this morning. So what is CD1 today was really only CD 19. I'm really bummed out because I had such a good feeling about this month. It was so different from the last 2 months.

So we'll be on a break until our next f/u appt with our dr on 8/21. Now that seems like forever away!

Hi alisa,

I'm also with you! Looks like we're cycle sisters too... I had 3 iui's (last one july 16) and it was a BFN ... i was shocked because it 'felt right' this time and nope.... My dr. is on vacation now and I have a follow up with him aug 27. He doesn't want to do any more iui's .. so i don't know where we're going from here.

Just wanted to let you know you're not alone! GL to you

[alisa]

I'd say I love having more sisters but then I know that means no BFP. So I'll just say, thanks for the support!

Have you thought about what you want to do next? We really are going through this together! Seeing our dr's within the same few weeks. Maybe we can share notes!

We're meeting with the dr on 8/21...hopefully things just move along to IVF - which scares me and of course might start right when we are going to Florida to see my family so who knows what kind of wrench that will throw in!

Good luck everyone!

I just found out today that my buyer dropped out for the sale of my condo. My whole world is falling apart. So much depended on that. I will probably lose the house that I was going to buy, and my deposit. that I do not get a next week to top it off. I am pretty much at the end of what I can take.

[OCEANLOVER]

Oh Alisa to you. I feel bad like I sent you bad vibes since our situation was so similiar. I see that you are meeting with your RE on the 21st and I hope that goes well.
I met with ours today and I have two nice size cysts to get rid of now b4 we can go forward. If all goes well with that I will go back for another iui in Sept. I am actually kinda glad to have the break this month and get my self mentally together. For the rest of the girls still waiting to test I wish you .

[OCEANLOVER]

Where in Florida are you visiting since that is where I live?

[alisa]

Oceanlover - no bad vibes so don't feel bad at all!! I was actually glad that I read your story because it really made me feel better that someone else had the same thing happen and that my situation wasn't some weird freak of nature. Now mind you, I am DEFINITELY not glad that your cycle didn't work out, but I'm glad that you will be able to go another round after your break. I'll be sending you !

We'll be in Orlando - my parents and 3 sisters (with their families) live in Orlando - Winter Garden area. Where are you?

Jess - so so so so sorry about the house sale....when I didn't hear from you again I figured something must have happened but I was hoping that the closing was happening. Feel free to poke me if you need to vent!

Good luck everyone!!!

[fairiedusst]

Can this possibly be? Did we all find better things to do during the 2ww than post here all day?

My boobs are still pretty crazy, but the heartburn stopped. I POAS yesterday to make sure the trigger was out of my system, and it was...until I looked at it again and it had turned pos. What I thought was a good idea at the time just turned out to be a waste of an HPT When am I gonna learn just to wait for AF?

How is everyone else that's still hanging in there? So sorry to lose Alisa and Oceanlover so early on. But I'm sure they want us to keep on keepin on, so let's get on it and micro-analyze every bodily function until we know for sure

[Bufton]

I am 10 dpiui today. I have days where I feel like this is it, then the next I don't. I refuse to buy tests because I am usually a testing freak. I am trying to contol myself. I just have such severe symptoms wih AF, there is no way for me to distinguish the difference! I am still staying positive. I think I am going to test on Monday.

Oh my gosh, Fairiedusst, I just realized we had out IUI's on the same day!!

[fairiedusst]

Bufton, consider it a blessing that you don't have HPTs lying around I bought a bunch of them a few months ago because I found them in a clearance bin. The temptation is awful! Hopefully 7/23 was a good day for both of us.

New slogan? I think positive, therefore I test positive.

[babygood1]

ONLY 8DPIUI and I POAS..what a joke...big no...Still keeping positive.

I hear it can take ten days to implant right?
I did see a ton of girls getting on day 11DPIUI...

GOOD LUCK! This wait drags! Just want to know already....I think about it all day.
