AF showed up today. She is very angry this cycle. I thought AF would be late this month due to progesterone, but she was right on time. On to another month TTC. ~X(

I really appreciate all of the prayers everyone ! I am still in disbelief after the news . I keep home testing and seeing positives and wondering if the doctor could be wrong ? I know that is so unlikely and that my doc knows what he's doing I'm just wondering why my level isn't going down . I wish I could give you a hug @Drove2u . How are you holding up ? I have had waves of feeling positive and then randomly crying (at the grocery store .. Ugh !!)
@babyexpress I'm sorry AF is being an angry b$&@! this month but you are one step closer to moving on to the next cycle . Periods just sleep like a slap in the face at this point . Ugh !!!
I am really praying for you @kristingolden11 !! We need a success !!!

@mskeenan I had a breakdown at the Bach party this weekend and told one friend. I cried it out and then felt better and continued on. Have you gotten AF yet? I haven't and took a hpt today and it said negative so it's looking like it won't be a miracle baby. I had some hope my levels would rise.
@Drove2u I am so sorry !! I am impressed you continued on and only broke down once . I broke down probably five times this weekend . Luckily I spent a lot of time alone - maybe that wasn't good for me . No - no period yet over here . No signs of it coming . I took a pregnancy test today and it's still positive . I am so confused !

@mskeenan I would be so confused with all the positive tests. We all want that symbol or line saying pregnant. You get it and you can't even enjoy it. I can't imagine how frustrating that must be.

@babyexpress is it horrible I'm kind of hoping for a miracle ? If I have to go another week with positive tests with the doc telling me to wait for AF I am gonna go insane . I keep expecting the lines to get more faint and they aren't . I don't know if this is normal for a chemical pregnancy or not .

@alexiskiriluk they were 15 14dpiui , 27 16dpiui and 30 18 dpiui . I know that's not normal but not sure why the test lines aren't going away ! Still no AF and my last progesterone pill was Friday am

@mskeenan I wonder if there are crappier HPTs that only go positive with a higher HCG level. I believe I saw one once with 30. I wonder if it would help you at all to see about buying an using a less sensitive test. I am so sorry you are going through this. In addition to that, it's terrible that you don't know whether to get your hopes up or not. I hope you get some answers real soon!
Married to DH 10/6/12
TTC since 5/14
Unexplained with (controlled) hypothyroidism and suspected ovulatory dysfunction (but, I do ovulate on my own)
Clomid 50 mg 3/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
Clomid 50 mg + metformin 4/15 (unmonitored) - BFN
First RE appt. 5/15; Natural cycle 5/15 monitored with 2 mature follicles and Pregnyl Trigger (full dose) + prometrium - BFN
6/15 HSG - clear tubes & normal uterus; great PCT test results
TI - 100 mg Clomid + prometrium (AM & PM) + vaginal estrace (AM & PM) 6-7/15 (monitored) --> no additional response and thinned lining - BFN
TI - Injectables (follistim + Gonal-F, Ganirelix, & 1/2 dose Pregnyl) + prometrium (AM & PM) 9/15 --> 3-7 mature follicles (3 definites and 4+ that could have matured due to trigger) @ O -->BFN + 5 large cysts
I don't think it would hurt to get it redrawn once more @mskeenan. It may help to ease your mind one way or another. I had my second beta today and it was up from 28 to 70, so a good sign I think. Baby dust to all of you, praying for success.
@mskeenan I know it's awful. With my first chemical pregnancy I was bleeding. Like AF bleeding and got Bfps still for like a good week. I mean while bleeding it out. Our bodies are just so confusing.
@babyexpress thanks for asking. No AF yet. But bfn this morning. Just waiting now.
Just got AF . What a painful slap after I already feel down . Blah the cramps are horrible ! Why do they have to hurt when I already hurt emotionally ? Blah I'm ready to move on !

I'm sorry!!! I really was so hoping that you just had some funny mix up with your blood work! I hate to say this, because i can't stand when people say it but....You got pregnant and you will get pregnant again! Sending you a hug tonight!
Oh @mskeenan that is awful. At least now you have some finality to that cycle rather than keep lingering. I hope AF has a short stay and you can begin again soon.
So sorry @mskeenan. I was also hoping for some mixup and a good ending. But at least you can move forward and try again! I know it's rough now, but it will get better. Hugs!!
So sorry AF arrived @mskeenan she has been really mean this month

Still nothing @mskeenan I don't know at what point I need to call my doctor. If I don't get it by Friday I guess I will. Then it will be a full week late.
@Drove2u yeah it can't hurt to call if you are worried ! I stopped my progesterone on Friday and my doc had told me to call by wed if I hadn't started .

I got AF. I'm going to call them today. I'm leaving for Germany soon. It's only for two nights but anxious to find out if I can do iui and the trip or if I have to cancel one.
Good you got it @Drove2u . I'm running into the same problem . DH and I will be in New York for a couple days and I'm worried it's right about the time I would need my next IUI . I'm going to ask if I can be put on BC to delay my cycle start if they don't think I will be ready before I leave .

@mskeenan at least you guys will be together so you can always TI. I'm traveling alone so this month might be a complete bust. @babyexpress my baseline is tomorrow.
Hi @babyexpress saw that you are back after a few days. I did my baseline last Friday and started Bravelle last Saturday. Today is CD8 for me. I actually already went back to RE yesterday but not much happening yet. I go back Saturday.
Did you decide what you are doing this cycle as far as meds?
I'm still gone until tomorrow afternoon and my appt isn't until Monday. I'm on CD6, so I'm feeling like this month is a total bust for me too. I will try to live vicariously through all of you this month. But who knows, maybe I will get checked on Monday and it will be full steam ahead.
