Me too, at 6 DPIUI!

What tricks is your mind playing?

So far, I've had weird cramps, heartburn, extremely vivid dreams, thick white CM, and I'm exhausted.

'tis the time to obsess. . . . I hate this 2ww, it's so much worse than last month, because now I know I'm waiting and if it didn't work, I'm starting an IVF protocol that will drag on forever.

Yes, crazy weird cramps and odd twinges in what feels like the tippy top of the uterus and strange cervical fluid that I can't remember if it's normal for the luteal phase or not (and how many years did I chart and should know this?? I guess I never paid much attention during that part of the cycle). Vivid bizarre dreams, exhaustion, sometimes feeling like my sense of smell is heightened and other times feeling like it's worse than normal. Oh well. I don't suppose there's a chance we can all take naps that last until it's time to test?

Totally on board with that suggestion!

Bfn this morning. Dh is hoping that it's just too early (12dpiui), but I don't seem to have any hope left.

November IUI

I have pcos. I had my iui on Nov. 10, + preg test on nov. 24. 5 weeks today. I had 3 rounds with clomid 150 mg and trigger shot last year, preg on 3rd round miscarried, no heartbeat at first obgyn appointment at 8 weeks. This time round preg on 3rd round, progesterone tested yesterday and only 18 even with endometrin 2xday. I feel like I am going crazy waiting for 6.5 week appointment to see if the baby has a heart beat or if it is dead again. I feel like I can't enjoy what is happening because I am waiting for the other shoe to drop again.

Hi ladies,
Just wanted to update. I trigger a little over a week ago and O'd exactly a week ago (from what I could tell). I was a little disappointed because i only had 1 good follicle (18.6). I had one smaller one (13.5), but they didn't think that one would be mature enough at O. Still trying to hold out hope! No realy symptoms, but I know it's still early. I plan on testing on Friday at 10 days past O. I'm assumming the trigger will be out of my system by then (12 days after trigger). What do you think?

Update on bizarre situation...

Hi everyone. At my last post I had gotten a BFN at 13 dpo, and then I had a weird period (2 days of very light, brown spotting, 2 days of normal bleeding and 1 more day of spotting...I usually have a 12 day period, so this was weird for me). Two days after I stopped bleeding I was still having all the same symptoms that I had attributed to the trigger shot (breast tenderness, starving all the time and just plain exhausted) and they were all more prominent, so I finally caved and took a HPT. Big surprise when it came up as a BFP immediately. Of course I had used the last one, so I ran to the store and bought a few more. This was at 7:30 at night, and this one was also immediately positive. I took another one with FMU the next day and that was also positive. So, I called the doc and they had me come in for blood work. HCG quantitative was only 139 (at 4 wks. 4 days) and prog. was 17.6, so they put me on Prometria and will do a re-test on Monday.

I'm kind of freaking out right now. I know the HCG numbers are low but still in normal range, but the nurse said they were not as high as they would like to see and they want my prog. to be at least 20.

I'm trying not to stress out, but that's not really working out too well. I'm totally waiting for the other shoe to drop (as the previous poster said). It wasn't very helpful when the nurse added that if I have any bleeding or cramping that I need to call them immediately. Thanks for that encouragement.

I'm supposed to be going out of town for a girl's weekend tomorrow, and all I can think about is miscarrying far from home. I know I'm supposed to be thinking positive, and I'm trying, but I truly feel as though I'm losing my mind.

Has anyone else had this happen?

Meesh! A very quiet congratulations for now I know that women have gone on to have successful pregnancies with low-ish betas, so I hope that's you.
