Dx : DOR
IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN
Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)
Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result
Attempted cycle Clomid + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)
IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP Beta #1 752 Beta #2 1536 Beta #3 3797
EDD 10/27/14

@iloveflipflops I exclusively pumped for a month and resumed my period about a week after I stopped
Your cycle is going to be out of whack for awhile because of all the hormones involved with having your LO and pumping. Some women start ovulating again right away and some go months after they stop BFing before they begin to ovulate again. You being regular before conceiving your son has no bearing on what will happen going forward. Periods change all the time for no reason at all, let alone after having a baby. If your doc gave you the 6 month mark to check things out and you're unhappy with that ask him/her why you're being asked to wait that long.
My anecdotes...
I went on the full pill 6 weeks PP after my son so don't know when my cycle returned because my monthly period was withdrawal bleeding from the pill. I stopped taking the pill when I started losing my milk supply at 8 months, stopped BFing completely by 10 months, and conceived DD at 11 months. I'm 12 weeks PP with DD now, EBFing, no birth control yet, and no period yet. Planning on starting the mini pill tomorrow actually.
There's no way of telling. My friend pumped 3 or 4 months and then staying nursing and she still doesn't have hers yet and she's almost 8 months pp
