TTC AFTER 35 Weekly Check In 3/12/18

well I woke up with some spotting!  and I have a feeling AF is coming later today cause I'm cramping a bit!  Right on time!  So excited. Hoping things will level out soon now.  I usually get a couple days of spotting prior but not this time.  On the exact day so I'm glad I didn't take the provera they wanted me to last month.  That clomid cycle was a 3 week one for me with a really oddly light period.  I slept better last night and only woke up twice but had some morning nausea which sucked but hey I got more sleep!  Hoping to get a nap in today.

@vlagrl29 FX you get this issue solved soon! And, I had started a new discussion here about how CD1 sucks but now, I'm totally changing my tune! I can now appreciate how important it is!

@vlagrl29 CD 1 dance! Glad you didn't have to mess with any other meds!

@ndz2018 FX for yours to get here too! Least since it's been awhile from retrieval, maybe your body clock is right on time!

@kristimh80 It for sure feels like it’s coming! My cramps feel a tad different idk if it’s Bc they went in there and cut the septum down or what... let’s hope this is my last period for some time

@ndz2018 Makes sense! What is your transfer timeline when you start? Me doctor does them around day 21 of the cycle.

@kristimh80 About the same! I asked my SIL who had hers in Dec(same clinic) and she said a little less than 3 weeks. I feel like this is the longest cycle ever but I’m reality it’s been less than 28 days

@ndz2018 Awesome!! I hope it comes Monday! We'll be close But I agree...this last cycle seemed to take forever......

And I actually fell asleep and got a map! Fx this keeps getting better.

@kristimh80 I hope so too! Do you have actual date yet? And what day do you go in for blood work and/or U/S?

@vlagrl29 Good! I hope You get another good night sleep tonight !

I'm just afraid it will be a light AF again. Does it take a bit to get your normal flow back? It is red just not very heavy yet. Never thought I'd be wishing for a heavy flow lol

@ndz2018 I have my sonogram and bloodwork on Monday the 26th so will know more then. But it should land the 1st week of April.

@vlagrl29 Mine was pretty heavy the first day then was lighter than normal the rest of the time. But hormonal affects everyone differently, so never know.

vlagrl29

@kristimh80 - yeah I can tell it's already lighter than it use to be.  Guessing as the months go on the more it will be like is use too.  I don't even have to wear a pad at night - just a panty liner.

@vlagrl29 Enjoy it while you can! Then again it maybe the calm before the storm
