Back from bump break with a ?

KristyLynn26

Hi Ladies! First of all I've missed you and I'd like to come back after my much needed bump break after our failed IVF cycle last month.  

How is everyone?  It's been a hectic month this past month with the holidays and the remodel going on in our kitchen but I loved every minute with DH and DD and we are ready to move forward with IVF #2 in the new year. 

Now for my question... I am currently on day 39 of what is normally a 26-28 day cycle. All tests have been BFNs, but this has never happened to me before. With the holidays and everything I'm not exactly in a rush to start our next IVF cycle but I'm so tired of my body throwing a different curve ball every stinking month. Is it possible I ovulated late or not at all this month? When should I call my RE?

Thanks again! Hope everyone had a terrific holiday and wishing everyone a wonderful New Year!

I am so glad to see you back.  I was wondering how you are.  I just had my third IUI and it was a bust.   we will move onto IVF.

 

I am glad the remodel went well and the holidays.  I hope the new year is good for us both!  Hugs!

I don't have a specific answer as to what's causing the delay, but I do know the answer on how to "fix" it.

My PP periods were really long, and we needed to start IVF #2 ASAP, so the RE gave me prometrium to kick start my period once it got to over 40 days.  It happened twice, but the first time AF showed up right as I got my prescription filled.

I'm not sure how far PP you are, but it might be somehow related to that, otherwise, not quite sure what's going on.

Good luck in IVF #2 and boo to longer cycles. It's possible you O'd later than usual.  I've heard generally that you should call if your cycles are 60 days and you get BFNs--you cang et an Rx to restart your cycle.

I'm so sorry you have to move to IVF too It will be nice to have someone to talk to again this cycle though.

I missed all of you too but it was nice to try and forget about IF for a month and focus on my family. It was really starting to wear on me and I think the break was just what I needed.  Now I'm ready to jump back in and move forward with IVF #2.

Thank you!  This was definitely a change and has never happened before but thankfully today, on day 40, I finally started. Now just hoping I can move forward with IVF #2 ASAP

Thank you!  I've never had to deal with long cycles before so this definitely did a number on me. One more thing to question and wonder about.

IUI #2 was our lucky cycle with DD so I'm hoping that IVF #2 will be our lucky number again.  Here's hoping the new year brings BFPs for all of us!
