Trouble TTC

Progesterone suppositories messing with my emotions?

Just needed to vent a little before I go totally crazy. We had our 3rd iui last weekend after doing puregon injections (which in my opinion didn't work for me as I still only produced one egg) and I have been on progesterone suppositories for a week, since we are in our tww I have cut out all things you shouldn't have when pregnant. Friday was a very emotional day, frustrated for no particular reason, I felt like I could completely burst! I broke down and decided to have a beer at dinner and felt kind of sick afterwards. Yesterday I had a wedding and bad me had a glass of wine and one beer and again felt kind of sick after the beer. Not too sure what's going on but these raging hormones are driving me absolutely crazy!!! I pray that this time we will get our BFP and then the mood swings and what not will all be worth it, but I'm not feeling any other symptoms and maybe that's what's adding to the frustration. Thanks for letting me vent and hopefully today will be a better day.

  • @vssbrm glad to know I'm not the only one, I feel like a yo-yo and totally broke down crying yesterday morning for no apparent reason.
  • Progesterone is theeeee worst! Sorry youre going through all of that. I know how it is.
  • I'm scared beyond belief now because I start my first round of progestrone as soon as ovulation is confirmed. Dh will probably volunteer to work ot just to get away. I guess ten weeks of torture is worth it when you think of it.
  • @TryingforaTRbaby thank you! I knew it was probably going to be rough but didn't expect to feel the way I feel some days.

    @turtle148 sorry, didn't mean to scare you but you are right, it will all be worth it and good luck!!!
