Good Morning All! I was driving home from work yesterday and felt a little crampy like AF is just around the corner. I am 14DPO today so I would be natually seeing AF. Well I did have some old blood spotting (TMI sorry  ) not much but a little. I still used my progesterone last night but I still woke up this morning with more spotting but now it is fresh blood. DANG IT. I also have normal AF cramps. Looks like today might be CD1 or tomorrow.
I go today for my bloodwork but I am afraid it will be a BFN. On to the next medicated iui cycle and the last. So this next cycle HAS to work. UGH!!!!
It's crazy that all those eggs, good sperm count and perfectly timed IUI two days in a row doesn't work. Just amazing!

I am actually okay. I think it's yet again cause there is a plan for next cycle still.
Now - if I get a BFN after next cycle I will be a freak because this is suppose to be our last cycle that DH and I agreed on. Then we will take a break (I hate breaks) and save for IVF of adopt. So this next one HAS to work. IT HAS to. I am not taking BFN for an answer!

Gretchen, you had better show this to your ovaries! It is your one-way ticket to join me in the October DDC, and I'm not taking "no" for an answer!!

So sorry to hear this. But your positive thinking for the next cycle is inspiring and just has to work. BFP, this time, next month.

I am ready for some more belly shots! Bring them on! I act tough now, but I'll be whining by this time next week. I am such a wimp.
I am cashing in the that one way ticket to pregnancy! I am sure that is a good ticket and not a scam.
Thank you for all your support laides. All of this is possible because of you and Sweet Baby Jesus!

Well by the time I left for my RE appointment, I was in full flow. So Def CD1
Still had to do stupid blood work. Two pokes, one in each arm, OUCH!
He did an ultra sound and said I have the month off. Just natural is all I can do. I guess my ovaries are still double the size. WHAT? Didn't he hear me when I said ONE MORE TRY!
So we will just have lots of sex and play normal for a month I suppose.
This was not what I had in mind.... phewy!

Aw sorry this wasn't your month and now a month off.  Stupid bodies not getting the message. Maybe a normal cycle is what you need though, just to feel normal for a bit. Hope this break cycle flies by for you!

Well RATS! You know, some of those meds stick around for a while, so I'd make sure you give it your best shot this month...who doesn't love a free baby?

Melissa - you always say the right things. I would love a free baby. That's it, I am getting knocked up for free in about 12 days by my DH instead of in a dr. office with a catherater. Woo hoo! My DH will be so happy!

I'm sorry Gretchen. I find that when that has happened to me, I might feel bad for a day but then I pull myself up and look towards the next cycle and I feel better. I know that is what you're doing too.

I'm sorry  . Keep in mind, natural BFPs happen after medicated cycles all the time. Maybe you'll be next!!
