Any updates?

AF showed up yesterday...3 days early, at only 11 days after the IUI. I usually have a 14-15 day LP, this is twice now that I have had an 11 day LP and both times were my only times on the Crinone progesterone. I am not taking it next time. I am waiting on a call from the RE's nurse to talk about it. Both cycles on this prog. I was in a lot of pain...like if I coughed or sneezed in the wrong position I would have this horrible tearing pain in my uterus (which I usually only get when I am pregnant) and I noticed the left over progesterone never really came back out like the prog. I was on with Jericho. Until now that is...thanks to AF now all this built up gunk is coming out. I'm wondering if that build up irritated my cervix/uterus enough to screw up implantation. Everything else about my cycles were good...2-4 follies, good sperm, ultrasounds and trigger for timing...I can't think of any other reason. I think we will try once more in a few months...without this type of progesterone.

How about you, how are you doing?

So far BFNs but my chart is looking really good... This is my first month charting but from everything I have read the high temps, little dip and high again are really good signs so who knows?

I have never tried the crinone but had some donated to me.. maybe I will stay away from it. I am on prometrium. It's still a messy vaginal suppository but so far seems okay. I get a few cramps/pulls/twinges but I try not to read into it. 

I too am a little baffled by your lack of bfp last couple cycles since everything seemed good and your other 2 pregnancies didn't seem to take too long. Well I guess trips were 6 iuis.. but Jericho was only 2 or 3? I have faith it will happen again for you!

Let me know when you are thinking of trying again, I like to be able to cheer you (and other long time members) on!

Yes...I was thinking your chart looks very good...fingers crossed!

Jericho was only 2 IUI's...but he was a different type of progesterone, I will switching back to that kind next time. I will gladly take the mess over the gunky build up and pain. That HAD to be a part of the problem...hopefully.

I'm not sure when we will try next, the latest would be early next year after we get our tax returns LOL if we can't swing it before then. I will KUP Thanks for the support!

I'm so sorry to read about the BFN.

I didn't like the crinone either, and it is super expensive too! (I got mine at strohekers with the other meds and didn't realize how much it cost at the time.) I switched back to suppositories though, more affordable and less waste without the applicator, etc.

Thanks.

I got mine for free both times, which was cool. But I am for sure going back to the other kind next time.

I'm starting to get things ready for our next, and probably last, try. I found my meds cheap from a "donation" passed down kind of place...hopefully they will be here in 4 days! Probably waiting until tax returns for the sperm and the actual IUI though. Here is hoping next time works.
