Waiting - I think you have every right to be upset by your sister's comments. I know I would be if my sister said the same to me. But from the rational side, try to keep in mind that both of you are probably extra emotional (extra hormones aside!) about such a sensitive subject. I'm sure your sister isn't trying to hurt you...
But you're always welcome to vent!! Lol...

A girl in my office just announced that she is 3+ mo along with her #3... I cried for an hour, and still can't bring myself to talk to her or congratulate her :-/

AFM - I thought about the progesterone influence, but my symptoms didn't start until a few days after OV... The little phantom cramps and twinges make me panic a little... <Deep breaths>
I haven't actually tested yet... I'm making myself wait until Sat morning...
My Endocrinologist says I don't have PCOS, just that my Thyroid levels are not completely under control ... But since I don't OV regularly, my dr started the metformin with the Clomid.
Just trying to be patient at this point... AF is "due" anytime between now and Tues

Rationalization is out the window at this point in my journey. Lol. This would be her 2nd pregnancy since I've been trying. It's just hard.

I'll be waiting for an update saturday!

I havent even OV'd yet and I'm already dying to poas!

And for some reason my dr encouraged me to poas early. This time she wants to do progesterone if I get a bfp so I have to start early.

Tara, I'd be mad at her for her comments too, but if she doesn't know that you are having fertility issues, she likely has no clue how hurtful her comments are.

Can you ask your Dr to put you on progesterone earlier than a bfp? Maybe at 3 or 4dpo? It can help with a stronger implantation. Maybe think about asking for a trigger shot too, if you need any more cycles after this one. That way you can be sure of ovulation and timing.

Good Luck!

I got a positive opk today!! Woohoo!!

Lisserb I think Tara is taking it after she confirms ovulation, she just has to test early to be sure if she is pregnant so she can come off of it if she's not.

Tara - that's fantastic!!

BFN on HPT this morning :-((
Trying to be hopeful that it's just too early...

Only 2 more tries left til surgery...

@mrsC- i'm sorry love. I hope it's just too early. I just read your info....WOW! You are under some stress! So is the surgery to remove his prostate?

@athena- boom chicka wow wow

@lisserb- dr doesnt think I have a progesterone issue. But she said we'll do a 7dpo test to see how high it is. If she thinks it's a little low, I'll start the progesterone. At first she wanted to wait til first sign of a bfp but changed her mind.

No sign of impending OV yet. Cervix was a bit soft yesterday morning but I think it was due to the semen in the softcup since that was semen does. I checked late and it was hard again. My sister and I are fine. Still not sure if she's pregnant but will have to wait and see. If she is, she is. I wont be mad at her if she is, I'll be mad that I'll be stuck around a pregnant woman for 9months.

Cant catch a break. I'm sick for the 2nd time in 3 weeks. I'm a little stuffy but it's mostly in my chest. Got that tight feeling when I breathe that makes me want to cough. Had a temp spike up to 98.2 and got a coverline but opk was neg yesterday unless I missed my surge. Or my temp is up a bit from this cough. Have to wait and see.

Tara I'm sick too. Just hit me out of nowhere last night and now I'm stopped up and coughing. My temp went up some hope it goes up more tomorrow.
