Today marks the 14th day since I had IUI #1 done. Yesterday was Cycle Day 28 for me and no period. Today I have no trace of a period either. Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut, I have been getting negative's on my home pregnancy tests.
I can't help but wonder if it's the Progesterone Suppositories that they had me take the day after the IUI procedure that is keeping my period away. I keep reading lots of posts on fertility boards that say this. However, at the same time, I keep hoping and praying that isn't the case and my HCG levels are not enough for the home test to pick up. One can dream, right?
This whole being late scares me though. I've always been a regular period kinda gal. By the book if you must say. 28 days. So, I'm hoping these fertility drugs didn't mess up my system.
I did put in a call to the clinic this morning to find out what I should do. Whether I should wait a few more days, stop taking the suppositories, come in for a blood test? Ugh.
As I'm typing this, I'm anxiously waiting for Mr. Dubyah to get ready so that we can head on out to the clinic. His appointment is for 0900 and then two hours later, 01100, I'm going to get turkey basted with his giz. My apologies for the way in stating it, but being so informal helps me calm down and not be so down and out about this whole trying to make a baby thing.
So, with that said, wish us luck! Ready or not, here we come guys!
I swear. My AF always seems to come at the most perfect time (sarcastically speaking).
I got my AF during my wedding. My poor BFF had the honor of removing a blood stain from my dress.
I got my AF last year during a camping trip and well, like tradition, I got my AF once again during our camping trip in Santa Margarita. Most importantly, it had to be when I was far, far, away and with sucky reception to call the fertility clinic to order my meds so that we can get started on our first IUI.
But, life goes on and thankfully my parents had "Verizon" as their phone carrier and I was able to call up the fertility clinic and receive calls with no problemo. Phew! Thank you Verizon. But, I still love my iPhone :)
Right now, I am taking two pills of Clomid making up 100mg, a low dose aspirin to help with blood circulation, and ofcourse, prenatal pills. So far, so good. No mood swings yet, but I'm only two days into the meds. What I noticed however is that my cramps are not as bad, no blood clots either, post surgery, which I absolutely love.
