So I’m out this cycle ::Updated::

28 January 2013

I can’t even begin to describe the pit in my stomach this morning when I took my temperature and saw that it had dropped to 97.3 degrees.  This means that AF is on her way.  I guess there is a slight chance that it was an implantation dip but that’s highly unlikely.  I hesitantly told Ben at 5:45am. See I had to wake up this morning to go get blood work done, to see what my progesterone levels are.  Which is so early, especially on a Monday…and then to see that on the thermometer basically made my heart drop.  Ben’s response when I told him was, what the fuck? And then to have to go have blood work done for a cycle you know is over is even worse.  I didn’t see a doctor and you really can’t know what’s happening until AF arrives…but yeah.

So here I am just waiting.  What do we do next cycle?  I think Ben and I would like to do another IUI cycle…but I guess I’ll have to talk to the doctor about it.  Until then I just have to wait for AF to rear her ugly head.

Just talked to the doctor and she wants me to up my progesterone tonight from 100mg to 200mg and I’ll do that until AF arrives or my doctor’s appointment on Friday.

  2. thanks. I'm hanging in there. not nearly as emotional about it as I would have expected. I guess when you're used to it, it doesn't hurt as much.
