Hello ladies! Background: I've had two losses and am going in for my third FET cycle.
I think I've messed up on this one... After my second miscarriage, I had to wait for the miscarriage bleed (i.e. first period), then I would start the next FET cycle once my second period came.
The miscarriage bleed came and went, and then I waited and waited for my second period so I could call in for first day of menses and start BCP. Well, I spotted a little after 1.5 months or so, called the nurse, and she said to wait. So then, and this is where I messed up, I had some more spotting 2 weeks later, and fed up of waiting, I just called her and said I didn't quite have full flow, but that I was bleeding (I really just had spotting).
So, I was advised to start taking BCP, and now 14 days into taking it, I've been bleeding old brown blood (sorry, TMI), and I have quite bad period cramps for the last 4 days.
The bottom line is - I'm really worried that I started taking the BCP at the wrong time, and that my whole FET is going to be a blow. I have my baseline appointment on 6/29, but how will they be absolutely sure that my lining is OK to start a FET? And does it matter if I didn't really have my period when I called it in?
Needless to say, I feel like a complete idiot. I should have just waited, but, after 2 failed cycles I was frustrated having waited for 2 months without a proper period.
Has anyone ever done this? I'm so scared that they're going to transfer the embryo and it's not even going to be the right time for it! Gah.
