Trouble TTC

IUI #3...also a fail :(

Well I knew there was a reason I was telling myself to stick it out one more day before testing. I was going to test this morning when I woke up but AF already beat me to it. Going in on Saturday to discuss with our RE what's in store for us next.

This is kind of off the topic but I noticed that AF this month doesn't look like her usually self, pink/red flow...today is only CD1 so I will see what happens in the next couple of days but it is a very dark brown. I'm not worried about it just curious. This may sound silly, but would it be from very, very old lining? Or is there anything else that would change the color of AF so drastically from one cycle to another?

Re: IUI #3...also a fail :(

  • I'm sorry. I have always heard that brown meant it was old too, like you said. That has happened to me a couple times before right at the beginning of my period and I assumed it was old lining, then it went away so I didn't try to figure it out further. I wish I had a better explanation. Hang in there.
    TTC from May 2011 to Jan 2013. Due 9/11/13
