Hi Aunt Flo

Spotting this morning. Oh well. Hoping that the insurance approval is in before she comes for real, so that we don't need to wait two whole cycles to do IUI #2 with G*nal-f.

Mental Notes:
Nausea is possible without a pregnancy during the Luteal Phase. (Clomid/HCG - DPI9)
Luteal Phase is longer with the HCG shot - approximately 17 days.
Infertility SUCKS.

Crap. I'm so, so sorry. I hope you don't have to wait too long for the next cycle. The waiting (for everything) is one of the most frustrating parts of IF.

And, as a sidebar, the meds have the exact opposite effect on my luteal phase--I had the two shortest cycles ever with the meds. Good times.

I'm so sorry that things didn't work out. I hate IF. I hope you'll be able to try again soon.

Oh I HATE Aunt Flo...I am sorry.
(my LP was normally about 5-7 days later when I did medicated cycles ) and the progesterone gave me nausea , made me SO TIRED and very hungry...go figure. I just want to have sex and get PG and I know you do too sweetie.

*BIG HUGS*

I'm sorry this just sucks...and btw, after a trigger shot cycle I always end up with f'ed up Day 3 blood levels and a big cyst or two.

Not saying it will happen to you, but you might have to skip a month.

I'm so sorry about the spotting. What an evil witch.

I am crossing my fingers about the insurance. I am so impatient and I would HATE to have to wait just because of paperwork.

Sorry to hear about AF! Hope the insurance gets it's butt in gear so you can get this cycle rolling!

BTW, the trigger shot always made me have strange bouts of nausea too - I was convinced each cycle until this last one that I was pregnant because of it. Go figure.

Good luck!
