The 2ww is making me mental!!

I am scheduled to POAS on Wednesday, but the past 24 hours I feel like I've been a nutcase!!! I've been super fatigued, my emotions are all over the place, I've been having some spotting which I can't tell if it's implantation or the start of my cycle.... It's definitely brown in color with maybe a tinge of pink...? I can't tell!! I'm constantly going to the bathroom staring at my tp, ready to take it to the paint department at Home Depot and let them tell me what color it is!!!! Ok... I'm not going that far, but really, I feel like I'm going insane. I just want to sleep for the next 72 hours.... Ugh, this is the worst 2ww ever!! For me anyway... Encouragement is always appreciated!!

Ug - two weeks is a long, long time! My two cents - (take it or leave it, I have been called a 'pee pusher') is that you are 11dpIUI right? My 'home' board is the LGBT board where about 90% have IUIs or inseminations or some sort - and most start POASing around 10dpIUI and lots start getting squinters around then. You could just pee. Either way, for me, when I would POAS, it would take some of my anxiety away because I got some sort of answer - even if it was 'no' it was "no for now..." but it let me know there was no information available that I didn't already have... vs. sitting around wondering "if I pee now?" "what about now?" It's totally your call, but at 11dpIUI, I would probably start POASing myself!

I'm a pee pusher too, but decide for yourself what is right. I personally would rather know either way as soon as possible so I could prep myself for next steps emotionally. The 2ww really sucks a big one and it makes a bipolar person out of all of us. Hang in there!

Well, my doctor called and said my progesterone level from as week was high! 33! She said if my cycle was coming, it would be a lower number!! Going in tomorrow for a bloodw work test. Maybe I'll POAS tonight when I get home. Just to was some anxiety!!

Keep us posted! Progesterone won't necessarily tell you one way or another, but that is a great number! Let us know if/when you decide to POAS. I'll be rooting for you and sending BFP vibes your way! GL tomorrow regardless!

GL! I always tested early with my IUIs. I would test out my trigger and just keep testing.

Good luck either way you go! I'm too afraid to POAS... I don't think I ever will again unless I have a beta to tell me that there WILL be a second line.
