Today is cycle day 20 and my temp dropped way down low this morning and I feel some cramping so I think today maybe O day. Which is pretty normal for me. It’s usually between 19 and 24 so here’s hoping I see a temp spike tomorrow or over the next few days. Then the torture of the TWW. Liisa is your progesterone prescription or do you buy the cream online? I’ve been thinking about trying it out since my luteal phase is usually only 11 days. Would it help or make it worse do you think?

@lissa I would normally be ending AF today. However, I started spotting Friday but never really began a flow until after we BD Saturday morning. It was so heavy and awful during sex that we had to stop. I had a light flow the rest of Saturday and only spotting since. That is not normal for me. But I did take a few aleeve between Friday and Saturday, so my blood may have been thin enough to make most of it come out during sex. No more spotting today so far, so now I’m just waiting for my fertile time. Glad to hear your temps are still up. Progesterone never affected my temps much. It definitely worked though!
@Mama I hope today is O day! Sounds like you have all the signs. Good luck!

Hey girls. Sorry @Momma you sure are having a rough go lately. I hope this cycle is better for you.
@Mama i used the cream for a couple of months. I honestly DO think it helped a little. I usually spot 2 days before AF and with the cream (and the suppositories) i only start spotting the night before full flow. So i think that's an improvement. Right now i've switched from cream to suppositories because the RE gave me a three month supply so i'm going to use it up while i have it before we go to the next plan (IVF). I don't have a short LP tho; mine is 16 days. I do have weird (low) post-O temps that are just barely above coverline and lack of symptoms (tender breasts) for some cycles so i honestly think some cycles my body makes enough and some cycles it doesn't. It doesn't hurt to supplement with the cream or the suppositories (or so i've heard).

CD 10 and waiting to O. Finished my Clomid two days ago, and planning on BDing every other day. I go Monday, July 29th for CD 21 Progrestrone test.
Ladies, sorry you are having confusing cycles.
@lissa I have the cream but didnt use last cycle bc I started spotting at 9dpo till AF for like 4 days even with the cream. Not sure why maybe didnt use enough???

Beck thanks I had a chemical last cycle so I think that’s why this cycle is so messed up. But here’s hoping I see higher temps soon that point to O.
Liisa thanks I may look into it to see if it helps me out at all.
Momma by the time I get into my TWW you’ll be in yours it seems like

I have read it is hard to dose with the cream because its basically like a toothpaste tube and you just squeeze out what you need. I tried to do about a healthy dime size twice a day. @Bug i'm sure you're going to get a good plan where progesterone is concerned after you get your labs done. I'm 8 DPO today and woke up with a cramp in my neck (fighting the urge to take ibuprofen) but otherwise everything is normal. I'm feeling strangely positive and optimistic. DH is in a good mood which always affects my mood in a positive way. Going to try to hold off testing for a few more days; it really is torture.

Absolutely nothing here for my temp is still going down. Today is cycle day 22 still not sure if I O or not I don’t think so with how low my temps have been the last 3 days. My cycles are usually 32-34 days long so I need to O soon or this is going to be a really long cycle. Like either today or tomorrow because I usually only have a 11 day luteal phase. Been BD every other day just to have our bases covered.
