One week down one to go!
I went for my prog check today. Even though my dr said I didn't have to, I kept thinking what if this is the month my prog is low and I am pregnant?! I couldn't live with not knowing. I am sure it is fine which is alright by me since I hate the endometrin. Yuck! I can't wait till my Beta next thurs!! I keep feeling myself up to see if my BB's are sore or if I have any "symptoms" The last time I had my BFP (for the short time I had it) I was sore but I also had the trigger and prog supps. I am totally playing mind games with myself. I haven't been sleeping well the past few days and having really weird dreams. Hoping that's not another game my mind is playing on me.
How's everyone else doing??
ETA- never got a call yesterday so progesterone is fine. Now to just wait till next thurs for Beta or AF

Well, I had the trigger and i'm on crinone so i have so many symptoms and drive myself crazy. I know there's no way i'll be able to hold out until next Thurs for my beta.
My mind has been so preoccupied with TTC that i had no idea that yesterday was my anniversary until a delivery of flowers, a balloon, and choc covered strawberries arrived for me at work. 2ww sucks!!

It feels like the last week took a year to pass! I can't believe it's still another whole week. Good luck Goldie with your 12d16hr40min (I updated based on your posting time!!) LOL
ETA: ARRGGG... LIF's timestamp is behind my computer's clock. Oh well, close enough

Progesterone is the "pregnancy hormone". It prepares the uterus for implantation. The levels also confirm ovulation; the "corpus luteum" is what the follicle turns into after O and it produces progesterone. If your progesterone is low an embryo may have trouble implanting, and they would just put you on progesterone supplements. Normal is over 15 in a medicated cycle, my RE is super cautious and he wants it above 10.

Hang in there. How long after an IUI is a Beta? Could you just wait until your AF date so you don;t have to waste a trip and money or do they make you go in? Just wondering since this will be my first IUI cycle. Good to know there will be some symptoms from trigger and progesterone suppositories. This whole process is nuts. Good luck!

Beta is usually 14 days after IUi. One of the ladies said her office does not do betas, so I guess you could discuss it with your RE to either have the beta or wait til af. I didn't have any symptoms from trigger. I've learned from this forum that everyone responds so differently to all these medications. So weird lol

Re: One week down one to go!
So only a few days left. Had a minor breakdown yesterday in the car with DH. He tries to understand but he doesn't. I want this so badly it hurts. I know he does too but I definitely think he will be ok either way. Me not so much. I feel like my only calling in life is to be a mother and it hurts to think it may never happen. Trying to stay positive. Only a couple more days and I will know if IUI #3 was successful. Sorry pity party over. Just needed to vent. Thanks!

Re: One week down one to go!
I know exactly how you feel!! I caved and tested. I used a FRER this morning and there was definitely not even a hint of a 2nd line :( Definitely think this month is a bust. I wanted it so badly... this was my first cycle after my miscarriage in Dec.
Now off to be a moody b*tch at work!!

Almost there!! Try not to look into symptoms(easier said than done), but try not to because progesterone mimics pregnancy symptoms and you will drive yourself insane.
Good luck with your beta!

Re: One week down one to go!
Hang in there! DH is driving me crazy lately. He is afraid of me now bc he kept saying "maybe you are preg" every time I said I was thirsty, had to pee, needed a snack.. ect.. I yelled at him saying this isn't a freaking joke!! Now he is watching himself I feel like I am out too.. Cramps were really bad this weekend and boobs hurt and I tested to see if trigger was out and it was completely neg- not even a tiny pink line :/ I only have a few days to go so I am just praying everyday!! I really want to have another baby! My Dad has cancer and is fighting it hard-- told me last week to have faith and that he knows I will get pregnant despite what Drs are saying.. made me break down but he is right! They told me I would never get pregnant and I did on my own with my DS.. I beat the odds and numbers that they gave me. I know I can do it again. Sorry to vent on your thead but feeling very overwhelmed (and hormonal)

That's funny. Wish DH thought like that. He is very nonchalant about it. I'm sorry to hear about your father. I hope this is both your months (you get a BFP and he gets better!)

Re: One week down one to go!
Try not to get too mad at him. It's a totally different experience for them unfortunately. DH only felt my pain when they were doing all of his SA, testicular sonograms, and prostate checks (ouch!).. then he was like-- how do you guys go through all of this monthly! I hope this month is a charm for you! Have you caved in and tested yet? You should be 11piui right? This week is going to be insane!

I don't get mad at him. Wish I could be as nonchalant as he is. I think this month is a bust. Started feeling crampy today. Not sure if it means AF but we shall see. I am trying not to get my hopes up only to be disappointed.

Nonchalant is PERFECT to describe our DH's lol I don't get it!!! I showed him all my HPT's including the new one this morning and I think he grunted twice and said it's a little darker and walked out to pee and get his coffee while I'm ready to have a heart attack
