Kris - I really hope the bleeding is NOT from the bike! That is a whole different not-so-good problem altogether. Hoping it's implantation!

Tsyork - your symptoms sound good too! Good luck!

More cramping tonight, and lots of it. I think must be heading my way but it seems rather early for that. My last cycle started on June 2nd. Then again my cycle has never been in the least bit predictable.

I'm kind of dreading tomorrow to be honest... after the phone call it's all over and we have no next step to fall back on. What really sucks is alerting the masses that it didn't work... again. I would stop telling people when we're trying and testing but I want their prayers and support.

I'm ready to be a mommy.

Heatherly, I went ahead and added your , but it's all temporary just in case doesn't show. I hate seeing these come in, but I know we are all in this together and I know that we have all experienced this so we must continue to fight for it and hang in there

Ok ladies, I know that I am going to be the last one with bad news.. my spotting is getting heavier and my temp is starting to drop so I know will show up soon.. I am hoping for today as I am eager to get started again. Thankfully DH is on board for a next cycle. I was worried that he wasn't going to be with all the problems I had. I am going to go unmedicated so this way if the spotting starts up after my next IUI I will know it what caused it.

From now on I hope to only see from you all.

to you all. I will continue to check in.

Well I am seeing too many BFN for my liking. There has got to be some BFP coming soon! Not sure if it is going to be me though. This is my first month on injectables and also my first month doing iui so I am not sure what I am supposed to be feeling. I felt very slight cramping yesterday afternoon but it didn't last very long. But now it feels like it is back. I have been peeing a lot and my breasts are pretty sore. I just hope its not AF on her way. We will see on thurs though. 2 more days! I have been REALLY REALLY tempted to get a hpt, but I have resisted so far. If its a BFN on thurs I am going to be so depressed. I am already getting down about it. My DH was getting quite mad at me last night. He is a very positive person and I was making negative comments last night and he got mad and told me that until thurs I need to be positive. I am trying, but its hard.

I am for all of you. For the BFN's, next month is your month! to all!

Leaving for my b/w in about 45 minutes. I'm still getting cramps which is odd for me. I don't usually get cramps until a few hours before my period starts but I've been feeling them for 2 days now and haven't seen a single spot or speck of blood.

Also as of about 30 minutes ago I'm getting shooting pains up under my left shoulder blade. Of course the first thing I thought was ectopic? But it's way too soon for ectopic symptoms isn't it? Everything I've read says 6-8 weeks and I just had my IUI 14 days ago.

I'm probably just stressing myself out. My pee sticks were all negative so I'm not holding my breath but I'm hoping for a with a nice strong beta number today. I can dream can't I?

Wish me luck.

Wow, ladies, I'm so sorry for all of those with confirmed BFNs. It's frustrating, but like several of you have said, there's always next month. Try and stay positive!! Next month is your month!


Babson, taking a break is probably a good idea. If we are pg this cycle, we're taking one too. I have to have my cancer scan and then it's a mandatory 2-3 months off, but I'll need it. Our bodies go through so much as it is...we have to take some R&R and spend time with our dh! We've got to keep them happy!

to everyone and !

Waiting for someone to come and give us some good news.

I'm so sorry about everyone's s! I know how disappointing it is. I am that it happens for you on your next cycle!

AFM, I'm 10 dpiui today, and I'm trying to talk myself out of POAS. I didn't do it last month because I wanted to hold out hope until the blood test, but I'm finding it way harder this month to have willpower. My symptoms this month are different (I think, although it's probably just wishful thinking), and I'm trying to convince myself it's because this was my first cycle on follistim. Did anyone else notice a difference from clomid vs. follistim is the 2ww? I'm also on the progesterone, so that's probably what's causing all of the symptoms anyway.

Only four more days until the b/w; I can handle it, right?

Mrs. Smashy, hang in there and wait a few more days. POAS may not be accurate yet and why get a false response when the b/w will be so much more accurate. It's only 4 days. I am also 10 dpiui and I am not planning on poas until saturday. My RE's office said wait 14 days and if it's a then I can call and do the b/w. I am getting more anxious for that day to come. I have had the last 2 days off and actually, going to work the next 3 may help pass the time. At least that's a few hours that I might not think so much about it. Good luck ladies, for all of you and let's see some soon.

Angsea - Praying for you today! I hope you get that surprise BFP!

Nicky - Sorry for your AF showing up I'm so glad your DH is on board with doing another round. Good luck to you!

Resist the stick, gals!! It's hard, but I felt much better last month not thinking so much about testing and just waiting for good ole' AF to show up. Unfortunately she did, but I didn't stress myself out nearly as much as seeing the BFN on the test. I hate HPT's!!

AFM, my spotting has stopped after seeing it three times last night. Now I just have a heaviness in my lower abdomen and kind of sore on both sides and overall feel yucky. I don't recall having this feeling before, but I'm trying to keep my hopes in check.

Bring on the BFP's!
