Negative test, still waiting

I had a negative test this morning at P+14, but I'm still waiting for CD1 to show.  I tend to only go to P+13, so I had some hope that I might actually get a positive test.  After a long cycle (didn't ovulate until CD 25), I'm still waiting and I'm frustrated.  I don't want to deal with another cycle of TTC right now.  I'm tired and our schedules are not meshing well on that front.  If I do have to deal with another cycle, I just want to hurry up and get it started and do my cycle review and everything.

The last couple days we have been able to go to where K only nurses when she wakes up, at naptime, when she wakes from nap, at bedtime and then once in the morning between 4 and 6.  This is a vast improvement since she still sometimes nurse an hour apart even a month ago.  I do have to tell her no when she asks to nurse outside of those times (she signs milk please), but she seems to handle it pretty well until just before sleeping.  I have no problem continuing to nurse for at least 3 more months, especially if I can manage to get pregnant.

K had been doing really well with having BMs on the toilet, but she has started going in her diaper again the last couple days.  Yes, she is only 17 months, but it's frustrating when she had been having maybe 1 a week in her diaper for months and now she's gone 5 times in 3 days and isn't telling me.

Cycle Review, etc.

I had my first cycle review with PPVI today.  My P+7 progesterone was 27.0 ng/dL and estradiol was 46.2 ng/dL.  Dr. H wants me to take the 500 mg sustained release B6 and Mucinex twice a day starting on day 10 through P+2.  I may have called prematurely since I'm still not have constant flow, just crazy off and on.  It's either P+11 or P+14.  I took an HPT which was negative (just using the old take an HPT, get your period trick).  I also had a followup today with my wonderful practitioner, TCIE.  I do have some nausea starting, but one of the kids I nanny for vomited yesterday, so it could be just stomach virus nausea.  I promised TCIE that if I don't have real flow by Saturday that I'll test again.

Nope

A couple people suggested that I test in case I managed to ovulate and get pregnant, but nope...it was a BFN. Still just spotting really with spurts of light bleeding.

Negative beta...big surprise, right?

Negative beta draw at 9 DPO. Now they want to put me on Provera. I don't even know if I should keep going to this dr (ob/gyn).

BFN beta and plan for next cycle

My dr's office called to tell me that my beta was negative. I was expecting that due to the negative test that morning.

I'm going to be doing unmedicated cycles for a while, since the obgyn said that we need to move on to the RE to do any more treatment. DH wants to plan down some more of our debts before we start doing any treatments so we aren't going to go yet. My hope is to start testing in 6 months or so and we may wait until next April or so to do any treatment (assuming I don't get and stay pregnant in the meantime). I'm 27 so we have time, but I don't want to waiting too much longer than that.

I'm start Vitex today, with EPO and B6. DH hasn't had an SA, but I figure it's better to assume that there is improvement to be made. He is taking arginine, zinc, selenium, l-carnitine, and a multivitamin (he's also taking B1 and B6 for other reasons).

BFN at 14/15 DPO

I got a BFN this morning. I'm 14/15 DPO and 16DPtrigger. I've gotten my beta b/w done tonight, but there's a very high likelyhood I'll be moving on to Cycle #9 in the next few days once I stop the progesterone. I knew that testing on Mother's Day was not going to give me good results.

The beta was negative

The beta was negative. That means that my last progesterone was last night and I hopefully will be getting FP by Saturday. I'm glad to be done with the progesterone, it's making me nauseated, tired, and bloated. They are calling in my rx's and I'll probably have an ultrasound Monday. This was not unexpected but it's still makes me sad. I had a little sliver of hope that I was feeling crappy because I was pregnant and that the HPTs were wrong.

Now I really am just waiting for cycle 8, and hoping for a January baby or at least a 2009 baby. I'm looking forward to FP getting here so we can start fresh. Hopefully, 100 mg of Clomid will give me an earlier o and maybe that will make it more likely that I can get pregnant. I feel like this is our last chance since it's the last medicated cycle. I'll need to get my 7DPO b/w done I think during a non-medicated cycle, so that I can see if I need the supplements to have any chance of pregnancy.

BFN at 14DPO...it's over

I got another BFN at 14 DPO. I took my last progesterone last night and I'll be calling my dr soon to let her know. D know that I got a negative test yesterday, so he already knows that cycle 7 is likely a bust. At this point in time, I'll be lucky/surprised if I'm pregnant by SIL's wedding in Aug (at which point we will have been trying for a year but I've agree to wait until a year from now before additional testing). No 2008 baby for me. Hopefully FP will be here by Friday, so we can start the 100 mg clomid cycle (and maybe even get an earlier o). I'll only be starting cycle 8 but this is month 9 of TTC (cycles of 32-45 days will do that).

BFN at 13DPO

Since I got a BFN this morning at 13DPO, I'm most likely just going to be taking my last progesterone tonight and waiting for FP. I'll test tomorrow, but I doubt that the result will be different. I should hopefully get FP on Friday, and I'll call my dr to get my prescriptions called in. I should hopefully start round 3 of clomid (this time at 100 mg) and estrogen and progesterone on Sunday. This will be my last round of clomid. After this cycle (#8), we'll be going unmedicated until next year when D has agree to start testing.

It's over, just waiting

I tested again at 15 DPO and BFN.  I had decided to take the progesterone one more night and test again.  I'm stopping tonight since the test was negative, so that I can get my period soon.  I'm not sure how long it will take, but hopefully not too long.  Cycle #7 and my last chance at a 2008 baby.

Still in Limbo...BFN at 14 DPO

So I tested again this morning at 14DPO and still BFN.  I'm supposed stop my progesterone tonight and I assume that my period will be here by tomorrow.  I have to call my Dr. on Mon. and figure out this next cycle (#7).

Good News/Bad News at 13 DPO

The good news is I'm at 13 DPO with no spotting. My usual luteal phase is 11 days and my longest is 12 days.  My progesterone at 7DPO was 22 (with 50 mg clomid and progesterone supplements).  The bad news is I tested this morning and got a BFN.  I'm in limbo right now and obsessively checking for spotting.

11 DPO and going back and forth

I've tested with $tree test (BFN). I only did it since I had some old (expired) OPKs around, they were positive (but again they were expired and that's probably why they were so positive.  I'm going back and forth between hopefulness and thinking that I'm definitely not pregnant. My husband says that there's no reason not to continue with meds, so I guess I will.  FP/AF is due tomorrow (or Friday).  I'm not sure if I'm going to test tomorrow or not (probably will end up testing I guess if I'm not spotting).
