mad mad mad!

I am sooo mad! Mad mad mad mad mad!

Ok, so today is CD15. I normally ovulate on CD 16. I started clomid this month, my follicles were 13mm on cd 12. Not mature enough. So, we decided to wait until tomorrow, CD 16, then we are going to give a trigger injection followed by IUI on tuesday. So, I started my OPK's on CD 11. Faint line. CD 12 darker line. CD 13 faint line, CD 14 even more faint. CD 15 NO LINE! ***! NO LINE! I've tested twice today. I want to scream! I know that clomid fixes LD and places most people on a day 14 ovulation. So, I ovulated eggs that were not mature enough (17mm), and now I have lost a month and money because my 2 eggs already ovulated. Do you think we were able to BD? NOOOOO... I tried friday night, CD 13, but DF said "I only have 20 minutes before I leave for the airport to pick up our friend". I said "honey, it only takes 20 minutes!

Yep... of course I worked 16 hrs yesterday so I could have today off, and we BD this afternoon. I think that was too late. ARRGGHH! mad mad mad.

Steph

I am sorry you are having a rough month. Are you going in tomorrow for an U/S to check your follicles?? Maybe they will have some different news for you than you are expecting.

Im soo sorry about everything. This is my first month on Clomid and I O'ed on the 16th according to FF and I got a - OPK the 15th. I would keep taking them just to be safe. Good luck girl.

I don't know what to tell you.

steph&dam · #5 February 24th, 2008, 08:05 PM

no line what so ever today. Nothing. No lutenizing hormone. My temps dipped on CD11 (96.6) with a spike on CD 12 (97.6) then a second dip on cd 14 (96.3) and today cd 15 up to 96.6. My temps have been all over the board since taking clomid. We added estrogen starting thursday to counteract the side effects of the clomid. I am just bummed. Tomorrow to have the follicle study, it's another $150 out of my pocket. No turkey baby for me. Or turkey baster baby either!

Oh man

I would feel so robbed too! That just sucks. I really hope that you are pleasently suprised in a couple weeks though. You never know, there is always a chance. HUGS

I am hoping that we can all join the Nov DDC. I hope our BD wasn't too late. But, and I know this is TMI, but I wasn't able to "retain", like I wanted to based on where we had it, and that fact that company was sitting in the living room. But it was better than nothing.

it only takes one good swimmer

Let's see if we can guess where you and dh dtd

Were you in the shower?

Yep! Good guess! We only live in 620 sq ft guest house... company in living room... shares wall furnace with bedroom. Shower, only place left where it wasn't so obvious!

BTDT

I sort of figured when you said you couldn't "retain" like you wanted too. LOL I hope it worked!

ShannonMVT · #11 February 24th, 2008, 09:15 PM

Man, that sucks! I hate not knowing when I have Oed and feeling like I may have missed my chance.

But good luck this month! I hope one of your dh's swimmers made it even though you were dtd in the shower.

I'm sorry Steph!!! I hope you were able to get those BD sessions in on time!

I hope you still have your chance for this month. Good luck to you!

Steph, I don't blame you for being frustrated- I would too!

But don't count yourself out just yet. It is far from being over. And DTD in the shower may be the charm!

By the way, with both of my pregnancies I never "retained" the good stuff... I always ran straight for the toilet!

I only started doing that recently b/c I know it's supposed to help out the odds. So I think you can't count yourself out just yet!

update.... EWCM today. I was fairly impressed. I even showed Dan. he was like ewwwwwwww.

I went to the OB, my follicles were 21mm, one was alittle bigger than the other. She went ahead and did the HCG shot. I could have ovulated yesterday, or I am ovulating today. Either way, we will still do an IUI tomorrow.
