Didn't ovulate?!?!?!

That's what the bloodwork shows. My progesterone level is only a 1...and they would expect a 10. I charted this cycle and saw a definite temperature shift, but maybe that was just due to the trigger shot in my system?

Next time I am getting a "real" HCG shot - intramuscular. And I'll be on progesterone too. Yay! So apparently there is even more wrong with me now. Fantastic. I know it's not the end of the world, but this is frustrating. The two friends that have kids around Riley's age, that freaked out when I told them we were going to TTC in August, are now both pregnant. They are both about 20 weeks too. Ugghhh....guess I'll start the birth control now.

Cramps...really?

Cramps started yesterday (Monday). Today they are still here and now I have spotting. I'm only 8dpiui. I shouldn't be starting yet. Ugghhh!

I went on for a blood draw because the nurse agreed that it was too early.

Not going to cancel

All of the follicles have grown some. I have 5 in the lead now. The biggest one is only 17mm. The doc decided to trigger me today. I think it is too early. I would prefer to wait, but it is his call. Plus, he had me take it in front of him.

Only 1mm of growth

That's in 2 days. It should have been at least 4mm of growth. I've got two follicle in the lead - one on each side. But only leading by about 1mm. Behind that are another 60 follicles.

Scanning again

Today is day 8 of try #2 for take home baby #2 (our 4th child). I'm waiting to check the numerous follicles and hoping that some are still growing. I fear that the decision to keep me on the dame dose was wrong. I'm worried that there has been no growth. Guess I'll know for sure in a few minutes.

My worry was right. No growth.

Lot of activity

I've got lots and lots of follicles. There is about 20 total that are 7.5 mm...so the nurses are stumped. I am keeping with the same dose so hopefully all of the follicles don't continue to grow. I only need one or two after all, so tell my body to cooperate!
