Now onto other stuff..today is CD21 and even though I was not supposed to be TTC and even though I didn't have any O strips this cycle (only a few in the very beginning, never saw a positive) I still tried to time our BD according to what FF says would of been my fertile window..I apparently O on CD17 and amazingly enough this CD17 seemed to have been just that..I felt nauseous and light headed and headachy, had breast cramps and tummy cramps too and around dinnertime I felt the all too familiar O pains..like something had burst through...I had been thinking that O had occurred on CD14 because I had been feeling the nausea and all the rest on that day but I never did get the sharp O pain that I felt this time...I did see some spotting this cycle but it was early on and I don't think it was related to O and again today there was some light discolouration on t.p. only (but we did BD last night so I think that's where it was coming from this time)..we BD on CD's 13, 15, 17, 18 and 21..
So I guess I'm saying, wish me luck

Vybe--glad to hear that your daycare is doing so well. Extra money is always great
Good luck this month...hope you get your BFP!My update: CD # 29 for me. Used protection all month so I'm not expecting anything. AF should be here in the next few days. I'm supposed to call RE on day one to set up doing the cycle with letrozole...but instead I'm going to call the nurse and ask a bunch of questions about it (why he wants me to do it? what if I dont want to? Side effects? etc.) plus we will be out of town in a couple weeks so I will not be able to do the letrozole this month anyhow. I hope we can try on our own though this month...even if I dont get a BFP this month...I'm just tired of preventing!! Good luck everyone. Hope we have some good news this week from some of you

Ani- If I read right you received a pro shot right? Forgive me if I am getting my info mixed up but it seems it was from you that I read that..I hope that AF doesn't take too long to show up and I hope that your cycles come back to normal soon..I remember last summer, after my m/c my cycle went from 6 days to 9 days long and I did not like it one bit and it only regulated itself after my last m/c this past March..it seems to be a normal thing for a m/c to mess with our cycles..
Perry- I am so sorry that AF showed up
GL with the medicated cycle and do KUP 
Vicky:So happy that the daycare is doing good b/c I remember how worried you were.Good Luck this month,hopefully you'll get your BFP.Oh,and thank you so much that you think about me.
Michelle:Preventing sucks,hang in there.I hope you'll get your BFP soon followed by H& H 9 months.
My update:I guess progesterone did work, just a few days later than what I thought b/c today is CD#1.I am happy to start a new cycle.
Michelle- hope you get your answers from the nurse and please let us know what they say. Is there a reason why the Dr didn't start with clomid? My RE put me on that so I would have stronger ovulation cycles because I was getting preg just not staying preg. It didn't work this time because of my age mainly.
My update- CD#4 just came back from the RE. Well good news and bad news. The good news is that the u/s showed 14 good follies, which is normal, avg between 10-15. My other 2 drug cycles where 1 and 4 follies so I'm excited!!!!!!!!YAY!!!!!!! The bad news is that the pharmacy is out of the follistem drug and they say they should be getting it in maybe Tuesday or Wednesday but I'm suppose to start the shots tonight. I do have some meds left over from last cycle but only for 4 days not the 6 that I need them for. The local specialty pharmacy is also out so I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping the meds come in before I run out. Please wish me luck, this is my last shot.
Anybody hear from Pray?
Good Luck ladies and hope you have a great week!
Michelle- It's good to ask questions and I hope you get some answers. I'm glad you can hopefully stop preventing!
Ani- Good luck this cycle!
Perry- Awesome news...lots of luck!
My update- Still no af, Dr apt on Friday. I haven't tested again since thurs but I am having stronger symptoms the last few days. I'll update after my appointment hopefully with good news!
Michelle - I hope you can stop preventing soon & get back to TTC!
Ani - Good Luck this cycle!
Perry - I hope you get the shots in time!
Britt - Good luck at your appointment! I hope you get good news!
Baby Vibes to all!!!
Me - My update is on the PALS board if anyone is intersted

BFP! April 2012!
Brittanie- Hope you get good news friday! KUP
Mel- Glad everything is going well. KUP
Mini update- The meds came in so I should be getting them by Wednesday. Very relieved! Start acupuncture Wednesday as well.
perry147: Great news about the meds so you can start on wednesday.
I already had progesterone suppositories at home so the Dr. said to use those,that way I didn't have to go in and pay for the shot.

Perry- I am so happy that the shots showed up on time..I will keep you in my prayers for this medicated cycle..GL!!
Mini update: CD24 today..I am expecting a longer cycle this month (more than 30 days)..last night I spotted, really just the one time that I saw it on t.p. Don't know what it means and I don't want to get my hopes up..
I know it wasn't related to BD because we haven't since CD21 and as I mentioned before I did see some spotting on two other occasions this cycle..once on CD10 and once CD21-22 (but this I am attributing to the BD)..
I think I might just go crazy wondering until next week!!
Baby dust ladies and GL to all this cycle

Because even though I am trying to remain calm, I am starting to think I might just be pregnant....
?
I am seriously freaking out here, ladies. I am having STRONG symptoms at this point, and have never ever EVER been more than 4 days late since I got my period 11 years ago. I have zero health issues. What the heck is going on? To top it off, the staff seemed extremely rude and condescending, like they don't think I need an appointment since the test came back negative! I had to repeat my symptoms, miscarriage history, health history, etc, to the lady, only for her to finally agree to transfer me to the person who does scheduling. Then this person is asking me questions and not even letting me answer, interrupting me 3 times!! So she doesn't even know WHY I am making an appointment or what all of my symptoms are. I was trying to explain everything and I think after 45 seconds she just got sick of it and interrupted me and just said "morning or afternoon". Ohhh I'm beyond angry at his staff. I have an appointment on Wednesday now. ugh I'm so emotional.

perry- glad the meds came in so now you can get started and hopefully get results. I have no experience with any medicines like that. I know I would have trouble with the shots. My thoughts are with you also.
my update- stated with a new gyn this week and love her. o'd on day 15 but only bede on day 16 so I am guessing it won't happen this month for me. I start back to work in a month so that will be a really rough time. I think I am finally dealing with some of the feelings I have about the mc and the doctor made me feel good that I really shouldn't have any trouble getting pregnant again. She recommended a thing that you spit on or something and it tests for ovulation. She said it was a little more accurate then the OPK sticks. I don't remember exactly what it is called but was wondering if anyone on here knew or had used it in hte past. I know it started with an O.
Thoughts are with everyone and baby dust to all!!
Perry glad you were able to get the meds you needed. i hope that they work!
Vicki hope you get your answer soon. And if your are indeed preggo hopefully it will be super sticky
Ani-Sorry af took so long. I read on it when I was supposed to use it (end up not needing to because my cycle had started 3 days later on CD 47 or something like that...this was prior to using the opks to figure out when I ovulate). I read that after you finish the progesterone (or provera specifically) it can take up to 10 days for AF to show after the med. My Ob also told me this. Wish it was sooner. Hopefully your cycle will be better this time.
Best wishes ladies.
