Cycle buddy check in - 2WW'ers
Sara, Daisy, Larkin and whoever is in their 2ww - how is every one doing?
My chart looks good for once and I just started my progesterone supps last night. We BD'd last time for good measure but that was probably too late to make a difference. Still spotting a little but its not red, so I'm not overly concerned. My soreness from the IUI is just about gone, and the cramps have not yet started, but I'm sure their coming. I won't be on Fri - Sun because DH and I will be away for his b-day. Good luck to all of you!

Re: Cycle buddy check in - 2WW'ers
I'm doing good! I don't have a good feeling for this cycle! But I still am hopeful! lol I might test sun/mon! & if I'm not pg or get AF by the 21th, then I will go on BCP for one month( I'm fine with this since they can't mess my cycles up more then they already are! lol ) then do the hsg in jan/feb. So we'll see what happens
GL all!
Hey Jen! Thanks for checking up on us! I'm excited to hear your chart looks good and I'm glad you could get a BD in before those progesterone supps! Even if was just for fun...
I'm doing fine. I'm 10dpiui today. I've decided to I'll poas on Tuesday if I don't see AF before then. See Carrie's pp for my CRAZY explanation!!! I'm feeling fine. It's been a busy week this week, something planned every night after work. Fun stuff, but it's been really wearing me down. I'm catching up with a lot of old friends, my brother and getting a haircut. Hoping it will be good for keeping my mind off the 2ww! No symptoms any more that I'm aware of. Just waiting...
Blacksheep, you're testing this weekend? If you see a neg don't get upset b/c that's early, I'd test again mid to late next week if you haven't started AF. Good luck. that would be nice if you don't have to have any treatment.
Sara, yes I read the explanation in the post below and I think it makes total sense. I'm really pulling for you.

I'm 9dpiui and I feel like I'm on an emotional rollercoaster. One minute I feel like there is no way that this worked and the next minute I feel like it had to work. I'm turning into a basket case. I've been really bitchy and have been attributing that to PMS and AF right around the corner. I've also been sad and restless thinking about the possibilities. I'm trying to hold out until Sunday to test but I might break down and test Saturday.... if I don't lose my mind before then.
The 2ww sucks!

I hope that I don't have to any more IF stuff. But I dout it! If I tes on Sun I will be 11dpo. We'll see how I feel! Maybe I wont! When do you think you'll test?

Thanks for checking in! I am now 5dpiui. My cramps have gone away...but my stomach feels swollen:( maybe thats a good sign. I feel like each day just creeps along, even though I'm busy w/ work and holiday parties, etc.
Jensneb: I had a questsion about progersterone supplements? Did you have to go in and have your prog. levels checked after IUI? Just curious b/c I go in tomorrow morning to have my progersterone levels checked and I remember my RE said if they're not a certain level or something, she would put me on a progesterone suppl. I'm already taking estrace for my lining thickness. Thanks, and have fun w/ your DH this weekend:)
My beta is on Monday. I poas on Sat to check if hcg was out of my system, then again 6dp5dt. Both negative. I planned to poas again this Sunday, but I'm considering just holding out for beta. I really truly feel as though this cycle is unsuccessful. And I'm strangely calm about it. It's like I already know and have already accepted it. I feel nothing - 100% normal (like pre-ivf). Like stims and retrieval never even happened. It's such a strange feeling!
I'd take shots in the belly and butt and bloating and crankiness any day over this 2ww crap. If I decide not to go through this again, it would be because of the mental stress leading up to this point; not the physical aspect.
So to answer your question, I don't know how I'm doing!

Ya, for IUI #1 I didn't test until 21dpiui! But that was my chemical pregnancy so that explained it all...
I guess my willpower is pretty good. I guess it's because my mom and Brian always tell me I should wait as long as possible. Not sure why. I think I'm scared! That was what my poll was this week on SAIF. The highest percentage was actually the 11dpiui or earlier!!! I was shocked by that. My RE says to wait until 14dpiui, I guess to make sure it won't show the trigger, I'm not sure. You are going to test 11pdiui right? If I'm supposed to start before I test then I guess I will...but GOSH I hope not...or after that either for that matter! I just want to know for ALL OF US!!!!
thanks for the 2ww check in. I usually lurk on these boards since I can't post during the day....but I am really pulling for all of you girls!!
This is a really long 2ww for me. I was so bummed after IUI #1 failed-- this is our second with clomid and ovidrel. I am 5dpo. anyone else almost feel afraid to test? Sometimes I would rather live in "maybe I am pregnant land" then know I am not. so, I think I will put it off as long as possible (if I can). my beta is scheduled for the 22nd. **fingers crossed** Good luck to all!!!
