Secondary IF

The Doc said it's a No

So after last month's failed FET, I got AF and life moved on. I was ready to try for another FET cycle. I set up my appts and bought more OPK's. I felt like on CD 8 I was going to ovulate soon, so I started testing. On the night of CD 9, I was in immense ovulation pain in my right follicle (I am that in tune with my body). I called the doctor's office on Saturday morning since they were open for a half day to ask them if I should do something, but the phone kept ringing. I called the other number they gave me and it said to leave a message and that the after hours/on call doc would call back. It never let me leave a message, but instead dropped the call. I tried again. It was very frustrating. I figured since I had an u/s scheduled today, Monday, it wouldn't effect the process and to keep testing just in case. I kept testing and getting a "high" reading, but never a "peak". I also chart and noticed that my temps had risen 3x over the cover line. In short, I ovulated. I told the doctor today that I ovulated and he was skeptical that I knew my body that well. Then he looked and found a collapsed follicle, then asked me to do a progesterone test. He even mentioned that my lining looked good. My results for the progesterone test were 5.5. I thought we'd be ready to move forward with an FET this week, but instead he called to tell me that he thought it was best I skip this cycle since they can't pinpoint when I ovulated. I'm so frustrated. Especially when no one listens to me and the office's phones don't work. And now, next month I'm traveling for work a lot, so I won't be able to be at all the appts and u/s's. So now I'm looking at April, maybe May. I'm becoming emotionally spent and questioning if this is worth my emotional sanity. I just needed to vent. March is turning out to suck. :(

  • Ugh. The worst. I am sorry thongs didn't work out the way they were supposed to. I hope you can find a way to work a cycle in next month.

  • Thanks @Flamingemu! I'm going to utilize this month to try to lose some weight and do some of the things I've had on my spring cleaning list that I wouldn't get to do if I was pregnant. Trying to look at the positive. Thank you for the kind thoughts. :)
