So here is a little more detail. On Friday I posted that i got a BFN, I also tested on Saturday and got a BFN. I thought it was really over. I tested Monday morning using a CVS blue dye test and the line was so flipping light i thought i was just seeing where the shadow of the dye was....i was also told that the blue dye tests are not as reliable. After work I went to walmart and got FRER pink dye tests. I took one as soon as I got home and boom there was a line that not only I could see, but my fellow interneters and DH.
This morning I took both the blue and pink tests....the blue was darker than it was yesterday and the pink was lighter than it was yesterday...I don't know what to think of that, I do know that if i continue to poke and touch my boobs the way i am people at work are going to think i am fondling myself!!! I am going out of town tomorrow, so I will have my BETA on Thursday.
Stick baby stick...please

R ~ 21mm
L ~ 26 and 18mm.
My lining is 6.3, the thinnest it's every been. Usually it's double that. No explanation for why so thin.
E2 ~ 1021
LH ~ 9.**
CD 21
R ~ 26mm
L ~ 31 and 28mm
Lining ~ 9 ((woooot))
Depending on today's bloodwork, IUI tomorrow or Monday. RE said that since my e2 is that high, all 3 of my follies must have mature eggies. Come on BFP!!
**********UPDATE***********
No surge yet...going back on Monday.

CD 13
Well...my appointment didn't go so good. I don't have any measurable follies and I got the you need to lose weight/IVF talk. He said he would not stop treating me, but since the clomid takes so long and so much to work he thinks after a year this is what it is. Lose weight ...fine. IVF...not so fine. I will never have $10,000 just lying around to put into a cycle that may or may not work. My insurance does not cover IVF or injectables. I am taking 200mg of clomid for 7 more days and going back next Friday. I am so freaking bummed.
Thanks Megan!!!!! I love to smell pretty. (I won a give away on her blog)

Again I have abandoned my blog. Forgive me. I am having a problem accepting that the last cycle was not a winner.
All my IF friends are turning up pregnant all over the place and as happy as I am for them, I am so sad for me. I don't feel guilty for being sad. We all go through it. Some admit it and others just keep it to themselves.
RE said 200mg of clomid CD 5-9...I said 200mg CD 5&6 and 250mgs CD 7-11....since I had enough left over to do that. First follie scan is on Friday. Can't wait.

Nope, didn't test today. Glad I didn't. A little while ago....spotting. I am ok. I had my cry the other day. There's always next month. April will be 1 year w/ my RE. April will be my 31st birthday.
I'll call the RE on Monday and see what the plan for next cycle is. I think I'll ask for Femara. I've only had it once as a second treatment during a failed clomid cycle.
Maybe my eggs were over matured ...they were kinda big and it was kinda late in the cycle. I'd rather have AF than another failed pregnancy.
Thank you all for your support and optimism. It kept my head afloat.

3dpiui
And already going nuts w/ phantom symptoms.
IUI day ~ Constipated
1dpiui ~ Constipated, burning nips, started prometrium in the PM
2dpiui ~ Semi-constipated, burning nips, nausea in the pm w/ watery mouth, felt
like i was going to puke - thought I had food poisoning
3dpiui ~ Loads of Creamy white thick CM ...like leaking out or something lol
The only thing I am worried about is that my boobs don't hurt. Of the 4 cycles I previously O'd in, I always got sore boobs as soon as I O'd. And even after starting the prometrium...no sore boobs....what gives....I'd rather have the sore boobs than the constipation...that's for sure.

Riddle me this...
What do you get when you have 3 released eggies and 80+ million soldiers going to war?!?!?!
Hopefully a STICKY BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our regular RE did not do the IUI today, the RE that did the traumatizing D&C did. He did; however, redeem himself. He was AWESOME!!! He swooped in and told DH to come over and look at my cervix. DH said it was a hole w/some white mucous. He then told DH that he is going to put the tube through my cervix and I would feel a cramp, which I did. He then told DH to push his guys in....maybe that would be the trick for this time. DH was loving being a part of it all...and of course loving hearing about his swimmers being a-plenty. He said I was going to get a scan to see if I released my eggs or not and if I did we do BD tonight and if I didn't we do another IUI tomorrow. The scan showed at least one released on the Right and both released from the Left.
Yesterday's stats were:
E2 - 1184
LH - 25.*
P4 - 2.**
2ww here we come!!!

Went to the RE today. Now mind you last night I was feeling things especially after DH and I BD'd...I even told him he I thought he broke my ovaries. On my right side I have ....30mm and 17mm and on my left side ....get this....38mm and 30mm!!!!!!!!!!! There was nothing there a week ago. I was concerned with the 38mm, but the RE said that he has seen them that big w/ clomid and has seen pregnancies occur. Made me feel a lil better. I got a shot of Lupron, which I thought was only for the supression of ovaries during IVF. But he said it was to make sure I release my eggs....I am still confused by that...but hey, he's the RE. He was concerned w/ my E2 last week...it was inthe 400's. I am wondering since the u/s tech has problems seeing my left side ( I had to squish down that side of my fluffy stomach) could she have missed something. Needless to say, I am soooo happy there was progression and I still have hope with this cycle.
Oh after Dr. Google and I consulted regarding triggering w/ Lupron I came across a post on SC with helpful information...here's the link that was in the post.

Went to the RE this morning. I am disappointed. I was feeling very strong O pains on my left side...well....all I have is 1 follie - 13mm on the Right...NOTHING on the left. WTF!!! Don't get me wrong I am so grateful for my one follie...shoot it only takes one. But I don't get what all those pings and things were on my left side...So I am taking 200mg of clomid for the next three days and going back on Saturday. I don't feel so bad about not being able to BD the last few days (he's been sick).

Had my HSG. Let me just say last time I had it done, I did not take anything for pain b/c I was not told to and I did not have any pain. This time I took 600mg of Ibuprofen and I had pain..aches and cramps in my cervix. There was a problem w/ my left tube, the dye did not go out of it right away, but eventually did. All clear w/ the right tube...which is the side of the ectopic. Uterus...still fine and comfy. So I asked him what I am to do next, call him on my next cycle? At first he said yes, then he asked me if I had been ovulating on my own and I said no. He then said he will give me some antibiotics b/c the dye took a minute to come out and wants to avoid any infections...and....CLOMID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOTTTTTTTT!!!! I am back in the game!!!! He Rx'd me 100mg for 7 days. I have more at home and was going to take 200mg, but then if it works he may think I need 100mg and never Rx the 200 again so I don't want to tell him I took more than he Rx'd so I will be a good girl (again) and take only the 100mgs. With this being said I was so excited that I forgot to ask about the baby aspirin. I go back for my first u/s on Sunday the 1st of March.
