Michele...Thanks for the prayers! You are so funny! And yes...I will share! If I end up with a baseball team, I would definitely need help from you all!! LOL!!!
But probably, no such luck. The nurse called me back and said that my progesterone level is 7.8. So...the plan....when AF arrives, my doctor will be INCREASING the Clomid to 150 mg....OMG!!!! She went on to tell me that this is pretty common. They have had ladies who start out with a progesterone level of 1-2 and the Clomid increases the progesterone up to at least a level of 12....which she said would be perfect in my case. So, I guess I will have another month of crazy s/e. Gosh...I hate it and dread it....but to have a little sticky bean I guess I am willing to do and go through anything!!! And...Jeremy would be so proud and happy!! I get such a great feeling thinking about it!!
Thanks for the update. I will pray for good progesterone level. Now, did you take prometrium after ovulation? or is the Clomid supposed to increase your levels also? Wow, that was 6 follicles that dropped, HOLY COW, your going to have a baseball team! Can autie Michele have one? come on please, if I ask real pretty.
Chrissy...Sorry about "O" time being a bust...but as we all know..that is life and it just sometimes happens!!! I guess I have always been stubborn....I'm usually NOT the one that says I'm sorry first! Thanks for updating the list this morning!
Steff...Hope everything is going well...keep us posted!
Donna...Thinking about you!
Deb's....Your emails always put a smile on my face!
Michele...Thanks for the words of encouragement!
Christina...Sorry AF showed up, it is always such a letdown.
Well, this is the update for me: I went to the doctor yesterday for progesterone level. I have been hurting really bad since Sunday night with lower pelvic pain--mostly on the right side. I showed him my FF chart with No ovulation detected. He believes that I DID "O". He believes that BBT charts are not accurate when you are on a fertility drug. They performed a vaginal U/S and we found the reason for my pain--I have 4 hemorrhagic corpus luteum cysts on the right side and 2 cysts on the left side. The U/S was so very painful. He seems to think that I did "O" because of all of these cysts present. He said that they most likely should resolve on their own...I will just be in pain until that time. The cysts are also due to hyperstimulation of the ovaries from the Clomid. So.....I will wait and see what my progesterone level is today and then he is to have a "plan" for me. I just hope that my progesterone level is good this time on the increased dose of Clomid. My progesterone last month was only 5.8 (on Clomid 50 mg). Again, they want to see progesterone AT LEAST 15 on a medicated cycle. Anyway...that is my update and I will know more later.

I just talked to Steff, she said they think the lab results are wrong, 176 they are thinking should've been 76- the math doesn't work.... She says her 2nd draw was 150 somthing, which would put her at doubled from 76. She's within 1 month from her last period so they nurse and her Dr. both agreed there is no way that would've been right. You can't be barely 2 weeks preg and have a number of 176. The lab does make errors on occasion all of them do. She's fine, no cramping, no bleeding feeling AWESOME! She said she's going to try and stay off the boards to keep stress to a minimum but she'll be back very very soon, a few days! She's trying to stay calm and the urge to browse upsets her.. So her and DH have agreed no internet til they know where the little peanut is. She's getting a sonogram on Monday and more BW she should be over 1000 by then. She sends everyone her love!
Hope today is a good one for everyone, all you Oing ladies try and get it! Chrissy, find your DH and do it!!!! At least try, lol I have to laugh it's the same with us we are both stubborn, me and my DH until one of us gives in... hey we love each other that's all that matters.
Two stubborn peas in a pod! Stuff for kids didn't end til 9pm... tucked kids in at 9:30 - Eric was snoring away in his chair by 9:45... I finished watching Law and Order and went to bed at 10:00.
24 hour window for the egg... gone! No BDing.
Don't bother with 2WW... just waiting out AF's arrival.
Lisa - thanks for all the pretty pictures on the chart! You are doing a fantastic job!
GOOD LUCK TODAY!!!! I hope you get some positive assistance and get a new game plan laid out.

Chrissy I think he deserves a + for coming home too. Marriage can be hard sometimes... I hope you made up. Talked it out. Beleive me girl we've had our share. About his sister no less, he tried at one point to say she was a great mother --- LOL you all KNOW I went into an absolute rage right?? He knows better now. The drugs, the things going on in her house, there's no way she's a good mother... I think he's seen the light. She's a very confused soul. Michele thank you, it's really been hard on me, I really wish it was one of us that had just given birth. There's a plan thank you for reminding me!! I hope the baby is strong enough to rise above the the life he's been born into. That's my hope and prayer for him.
The prize winning snake is doing great Her picture is in the paper They are doing another one in the summer it was a huge hit in this boring town!!
I hope all is well for everyone, Re appts TTC holy cow I can barely keep up!! We've got some O'ers here let's hope someone gets it! Chrissy maybe you guys made up and got it? I hope so. Steff hope all is well!
I'm waiting to O - hmmm which side will it be on? LOL
Start with Steff, that is some awesome first numbers girl! Did you use your monitor this cycle?
Laurel - I have to say I am in agreement with Chrissy, wrapper off tends to give you better results.
Donna - I so feel you! The injections and the testing is very stressful. I will keep you in my prayers for this cycle!
Chrissy - We all do get emotional during our O time. I spent most of the day crying myself yesterday. DH and I really got into it the night before. Make up sex is fantastic, and in the new large coffy bed too! Sorry if TMI. I pray that you and Eric made up last night also.
Lisa - Let us know how your RE app't went. I am so sorry it is so frustrating for you. Just hold onto the fact that you CAN get pregnant.
Debs - You and I seem to be on the same page, I think I O yesterday also.
Jess - I understand it is so frustrating to see people who do not deserve a child and who abuse there bodies get one. Just rest in the fact the Lord timing is always perfect and you will get your sticky bean soon.
