6DPO here. Struggling to stay positive. I have my progesterone level checked tomorrow morning and I'm scared they will be below 12 (meaning immature eggs again). Also scared they will be over 12 and I spend the next week thinking this is it only to have another BFN. Argh!! The TWW is the pits!
Only symptom is constipation. But that may be due to the antibiotics I was on last week.
Me: 39 SO: 36
Dx: low progesterone, possible DOR - officially "unexplained"

FX for you @PoeMasque! You reminded me not to give up when I had a BFN at 9dpo...and you were right. Don't lose hope, I'm praying for you and sending so much positive energy! Good luck with progesterone results tomorrow. xoxo
@PoeMasque the struggle is real! Know that I'm thinking of you, riding this TWW right along with you, and praying for positive. I hope your progesterone test goes well today!
AFM, we saw the RE for a consult yesterday and it went well. I'll have my progesterone checked day 21. We talked about some timing stresses. We have a lot at play, not just age, but relocation after DH graduates in May. We don't know where yet which complicates things but he is job hunting. Our insurance right now is awesome with $15,000 lifetime cap for infertility but when we move who knows what coverage we will have, plus with ACA changes, worried if this would be considered a preexisting condition. Anyway, all this has resulted in us feeling that instead of a "deadline" of my September birthday, it's moved up to May, so how can we do our best by then AND take advantage of this insurance. RE suggested we do one more round of IUI but simultaneously do my IVF testing/blood work and IVF class next month, so that's out of the way since we will lose one month to BC. This is all happening so fast. I sarcastically said to the RE, "yeah but all of this is kind of a moot point since I'm sitting here pregnant right now, right?"
Thanks @thistle8677 !! I will definitelt post results here tonight. Eep!
@Momifbysea yay!!! So glad you have a plan, and an aggressive one! There's something nice about the situation deciding for you, but obviously fx that there will be no need

@PoeMasque and @Momifbysea GL to both of you! I'm sure I belong in this TWW but my mind has already let go of it all so I can't get it back there lol.
@Momifbysea - I'm sure it seems like its all happening so fast - It just seems like a lot of deadlines that may stress you out. I hear ya on the ACA stress we are on a marketplace plan so technically I have to be pregnant by April for a December baby. I'm just hoping they keep the pre existing clause is in the trash can or if we have a baby in 2018 it may not be covered. oh well can't stress about what you can't control.
So glad our clinic is open Saturday mornings!! My progesterone is 32 (it was 7.9 this time last cycle)!!! I didn't think I would be so excited about it, but the RE said it signaled "high quality ovulation", so now I'm actually hopeful that this could finally be our month. I know we are still only looking at a 20% chance of conception, but for now I'm just happy to have some hope again.
