So I haven't been on here in a long time (since December) because a lot of people got mad at me for being upset after not conceiving in 6 months...I thought I had 2 positive pregnancy tests in December but I think it might've been a chemical since I got AF 2 days late. Well I actually had an IUI in January, didn't work. Found out in May that I was allergic to sperm. Yes you read it right, sperm!

we did a post coital test and after only 3 hrs they were all completely dead. Doctor says it's very rare and that we'll have to stick to IUI's. Well when I started AF in May I asked to try clomid as well and he agreed. I took it from cycle day 4-8. So here are my symptoms and other things that I will put up for everyone...
CD12- went in to get ultrasound to look at follicle sizes. On my left one was 2.8cm, my right had one 2.0cm and 1.8cm. Wanted to do trigger shot but dr didn't realize there was no pharmacies around that had it in stock

extremely upset.
CD13- was going to do IUI today but OPK's said I wasn't quite ovulating.
CD14- OPK getting darker.
CD15- did my IUI today, didn't hurt nearly as bad as the first time. Dr also said my CM looked much better this time as well

1dpo- nothing
2-6dpo- nipples were really sore, figured it was the clomid side effects.
7-8dpo- whole boob started hurting now.
9dpo- boobs are still sore, took a HPT in the morning, knew it'd be negative but couldn't help myself, and it was. That night me and SO went to dinner and I ate an entire Belgian waffle with strawberries, chocolate, whipped cream, maple glazed syrup, plus bacon before he even got halfway done. Then I continued to help him eat his. He called it, said "you've got to be pregnant"
10dpo- I had one FRER left so took it that morning. Laid back down instead of actually waiting in the bathroom. 3 min later I looked and saw a faint line! Went to doctors, HAD to have it confirmed to know it wasn't an evap or just my imagination. They called me a half hr after my blood test was done saying it was positive. Bought 2 more pregnancy tests anyway.
11dpo- a darker positive today.
I'm still trying to come off of cloud 9. I just can't believe this had finally happened. I know there are women out there who have infertility that is probably worse then mine or women who have been trying longer. But if we wouldn't have done the post coital then we would've tried and tried not knowing I couldn't get pregnant naturally. So please don't be rude about this discussion. It was a long 11 months and I prayed I wouldn't have to go past that yr mark and they were finally answered. I honestly think Clomid did the trick, and we used preseed and rePHresh. So baby dust to those who have been ttc, I know now that it will happen for you!!

Oh thank you so much! Now I know if my whole boob starts hurting at 7dpo it must be my lucky month.
Wait, I won't get my BFP because I didn't use PreSeed and rePHresh.
Wait, I will because I just got baby dusted.
Wait, you don't care whether I get a BFP or not because we've never met before and I have no idea who you are other than self-centered.
Wait, that means I don't care about your BFP either! Whew, glad that's settled.
Now, back to my boobs....

Uh it is. But you said it's been a long 11 months. I just hit the 2 year mark this month. That's 24 months of TTC. That's who knows how many cycles (since my cycles run 23-24 days)....
