Trouble TTC

that was weird (BFN)

AF arrived at least a couple of days late (on a partially medicated cycle). That's never happened before.

B*tch of an AF it's been, too. Cramps wiped me out Saturday, but I still had to help bail water out of our basement. They were somewhat better Sunday, but I had to help bail water out of my MIL's basement after her sump pump failed.

I was very conflicted the whole weekend. On the one hand, ow. On the other hand, get to start a new cycle with a new chance of conceiving. FX baseline checks out and I start meds on Thursday!

Re: that was weird (BFN)

  • @Buttmonkey34: Not too sad, actually. There was an extremely low chance of conception this cycle due to spontaneous early ovulation and spontaneously increased MFI issues. I was just waiting (and waiting and waiting) for AF. The part that sucked was the ow! Cramps are already mostly gone, so life's continuing at its usual frantic pace since I lost the weekend to basement flooding and AF pain.

    The bailing water has got to suck. I'm sorry that happened! Hope the sump pump gets fixed soon!
    Mask Creatures: [with increasing intensity] Mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy.
    The Doctor: Go to your room.
    [mask creatures stop]
    The Doctor: Go to your room! I mean it. I am very, very angry with you. I'm very, very cross. Go... To... Your... Room!
    [mask creatures turn and go back to their beds]
    The Doctor: [sighing] I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.
