I'm surprised too. But it just seems like docs don't want to listen. it has taken me almost a year to convince someone at the clinic that I don't ovulate on cd 14. 
On my second cycle my temps didn't confirm O but I had a huge dip on cd 17 and a huge rise on cd 18. But I sucked at temping and so it was likely me. I had to do my progesterone test on cd 21 as the doc wanted. it was only 12. It showed ovulation but it was low. probably because I ovulated later. So I asked the doc when they called with the results if I should change it to 7 dpo as I think I ovulated on cd 17 not 14. they said no, keep it at cd 21. Well I said screw that and temped hard core the next cycle. Sure enough I got a positive opk on cd 16 and ovulated cd 17. that was my bfp cycle. did my progesterone test on cd 24
after that I never talked to them about what cd I did my progesterone test on until this past cycle. I had to meticulously go over my past cycles with this nurse as they assumed that I took the progesterone test too late and that's why it was low. I had to convince her that I now ovulate (based on temps and positive opks) on cd 19. cd 21 would show nothing if I kept it at that.
It is so frustrating. But I don't want to go anywhere else as this new doc is the one that put me on letrozole right away last year as my doc was on maternity leave at the time. He seems to be pretty good and I requested to have him again when my doctor quit.
I had emailed his nurse on thursday so she will get the email first thing on monday I think so I am hoping I will hear something by the time I wake up. Now to get through this day. lol

. As for me CD10 and I feel like I might O a bit earlier this time around. We'll see what the opks do tomorrow. I'm not feeling super hopeful even though I have the progesterone now. I think more just nervous about starting something new and how I'm going to react to it. I'm super stressed out this week what with the move, and DH's grandfather's funeral, and summer schedules for my clients. Definitely not an ideal O week, but we'll get 'er done 
. I also have this lovely thought about a life starting this month so soon after DH's grandfather's death. Time will tell...
If I am resistant to it this cycle will tell me that. and then we can move on to whatever next steps the doc has. I will find that out tomorrow.
