Hi have2run...Thanks for asking. I hope I don't overdo my stay on your question but I have to just get this all out for my own sanity:
Here's whats' up...I had my first blood test. I hate needles but the first of many more I'm sure) Thyroid normal. Yay! Progesterone 8.5. Not yay. They said min is ten for it to indicate ovulation. sigh. I suffer over this on Friday for 20 mins. But I'm 8DPO so I start thinking WHAT IF I'm PG right now? I want to STAY that way so I need to fix this P number now! I called the fertility specialist I'm due to see next Thursday to try to get in sooner (now?!). No dice. They say call my ObGyn. On vacation! Great. I call back for her partner. Who finally Rxs progesterone to me. It gets called into the pharmacy. (remember this is Friday at about 4 pm) I call to see if it is filled. The young man says...is it a gel? uh well sorta...Pharmacy doesn't have it. I asked them to call other stores. They do. I drive across town and pick it up. ($100!!! another first of many more $$ certainly). I get home with it and 'deal'. Well it IS a gel...a vaginal gel...ewww. All the while my husband is at a stupid work happy hour. Grrr. So that is the story of How Pix Started Progesterone. If I get (an admitted unlikely) BPF next Thurs or so when AF is due then maybe it can be the story of How Mommy Fought for You From the Very Beginning. That's what's new. Thanks for listening. -Pix
About me: A pixie in the city, 41, TTC #1 since May 2010, married 18 years.
Diagnosed with, surgically removed, endometrioma Aug.2010 Sept 2010 IUI #1=BFN, Oct=cyst/bfn, Nov 2010 IUI #2 = bfn. Had to postpone IUI #3 b/c of a cyst natural=BFN. Skipped IUI #3, decided to go for IVF. Found/removed uterine polyps Jan 2011. IVF cancelled, no follicles. IVF #2: 3 great embies put in on Easter Sunday = BFN. Hoping for another chance at IVF in July. TTC is NOT for wimps.

Ugh, Pix, what a run-around! But I'm glad it had a happy ending... good luck to you this cycle :::baby dust:::
Hi, hav2run! I'm in the horse lattitudes of the 2ww... 5 dpo and counting... all my O symptoms seem to have faded away so now I just have to wait. Felt like I was getting a cold yesterday, but a nap seemed to do the trick - felt MUCH better after. Work will be pretty busy the next two weeks so that will help pass the time... oh, and we're moving at the end of the month!
I hope you are well! :::baby dust to you and everyone!:::
I'm headed to Mississippi for a class for work this week. Giving up my Sunday at home to sit on a plane. Will likely O this week while I'm gone, so that's a bummer, too. Oh well, that's what they pay me for... Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

Nothing new with me except I just got a Motorola Droid X which has taken ALOT of my time this weekend I am very excited!
On the TTC front, I am taking a "mini break" from temp taking and worrying about when I will O since it takes my body so darn long. For my own sanity, I am letting it all go this cycle!
