Cycle 22, CD 26, Negative Blood Test

So, this cycle is officially over.  I got the call today and set up the appointment for the IVF consult for next Wednesday.  Looks like we’ll be finding out more about stims and progesterone shots and whatnot. I got over my sad about this when I started spotting, so it wasn’t too bad of  a [...]

Cycle 22, CD 25, 11 DPIUI, Spotting

So, I’m spotting again.  For those of you following along, you’ve heard lots about me spotting.  For any new folks, I spot every month before my period.  Once, I spotted for 10 days in a row and it was terrible. I’m supposed to go take a pregnancy test tomorrow, and I guess I will, unless [...]

Cycle 22, Day 2

So, after a busy week/weekend, I’m popping in to write this, mostly to make it a plan that is more concrete and so it will quit circling around in my head. I am going to do one more medicated cycle this month (May).  Hopefully that will be the end of the story for the “how [...]

Cycle 21, CD 6, Day 3 of Clomid.

So, the Clomid headaches have teamed up with my cold headache to make me feel like my entire head might pop, like the balloon filled with glitter in the new Target commercial.  Well, except not so pretty and nostalgia inducing, and a little more Night of the Living Dead-ish. Also, I can only taste salt. [...]

Cycle 21, CD 3. Ultrasound and Clomid

Well, well, I see you over there, Clomid.  We meet again, you and I.  We’re off on another journey today, and I can say with all honestly that I hope these five days I spend with you are one of the few times I ever have to see you again.  So, let’s make it as [...]

Cycle 21, CD 1

I spent the whole first day of my 21st cycle cleaning out a shed just to come in and find that the sewer line was blocked up again, so no shower.  You can imagine how great I feel right now.  Thank goodness for the hot tub, jump in, rinse off and pretend that brominated water [...]

Cycle 20, CD 27, 13 DPO

So, second day with no spotting (yesterday, there was just a little bit in the morning).  I found this great website that finally seems to explain the spotting to me, and explains why I’ve stopped spotting but haven’t started my period yet.  Sometimes, it’s just so nice to KNOW something, or at least think I [...]

Cycle 20, CD 26, Blood test negative

The bloodtest came back negative.  I’ve stopped spotting, so now I just wait on my period. I guess I was the fool today for thinking this might work out this time.

Cycle 20, CD 23, 9 DPO, Spotting

So, I just started spotting.  I actually saw something this morning that looked like spotting and I decided I must be crazy, but now, I’m sure.  I’m so upset.  I’m so mad.  I’m so sad.  I’m just so… everything. I know, I know.  It’s just spotting.  Some people spot.  Then, those people can still be [...]

Cycle 20, CD 17, 3 (or 4) DPO, 5 DPT

My birthday is coming up this weekend.  I’ll be the big 34, and that puts me one year closer to the sacred (or profane, perhaps) 35, when my fertility will be officially declining.  I’m trying not to think about that too much.  Plus, two of the blogs I follow just got a BFP (Yolk and [...]
