It could still be a late implanter but I know you know that already. Really hope there's still a chance. Hang in there!

Going to keep on my progesterone until 14dpo just in case but I'm pretty sure it's over.
I have an appointment with my RE next Tuesday morning. Not sure if hes going to keep me on the same protocol for the 3rd attempt, we'll see.

Dream- I am so sorry. :

I am CD6... Thinking maybe start testing on Friday. Woke up with a bad headache this morning. I don't usually get headaches and instantly thought maybe this is it. I will chalk it up to the weather in the south though. So just playing the waiting game for now. I know it is way to early to test, but I am a POAS addict. LOL! Staying busy at work and patiently waiting to hear if I get a second interview for the job I applied for last week. It would be a major pay upgrade and a lot more work. Praying hard I hear something soon.

Im so sorry Dream. We all understand this feeling, a feeling I wouldnt wish upon anyone.
Sarah, whats the job? Fingers crossed! Haha if youre a POAS addict, Sunny, TB and Dream are not the kind of girls you should be around.
I dont know if Im after opinions or whether Im just stating things... I dont have a bank holiday weekend at the end of August and were invited to spend the king weekend in Devon by the coast with husbands mates and their girlfriends. Husband is in the Met Police and bank holiday weekend is Notting Hill carnival so he always has to work. I said Id go without him as theyre now obviously my friends as much as his. But now Im having second thoughts. His friend and his girlfriend had a baby back in October, just before all our shit kicked off. She got pregnant accidentally after 3 months of being together so it was all obviously quite difficult for hubby and myself. Anyway, now Im just worried that three whole days and nights will be too much to be constantly with the baby. Everything will be centred around her which I obviously understand, but I just dont feel in the right headspace now. Im really annoyed at myself for feeling like this. We have made the decision to put TTC on hold, and honestly, sometimes I feel like I genuinely dont want to ever TTC again. And these are decisions that I have made so why do I still find it so difficult to think of being around the baby? Am I going to feel like this forever, will I be eventually push away all my friends? Were only 26 and the only married couple so we were the first (other than the accidental baby) to even contemplate TTC. But eventually they will all start having babies. I was texting my husband earlier telling him that I might not go and he said that hes dreading the time when everyone starts having kids. It breaks my heart knowing that he feels like that when at the moment I cant see myself ever trying again.
Im on a bus in between campuses at work so sorry if thats all a bit rambly and nonsensical. Just having a Debbie Downer day I think.

Ohhh Steph that is hard. You want to be happy for them with the baby but still feel the pain. There are 2 pregnant people here at work and it is hard seeing them walk around. I want to be the pregnant one. I listen to them complain about their feet swelling and all that but inside I think I won't complain about that. I would be so happy to have it. I would like to say go and enjoy yourself and get some baby loving in, but that is easier said then done. The heartbreak is still there. Praying for you that you can make the decision that will be best for you. Maybe the other girls will have some good advice.
I work at a huge specialty pharmacy and I applied for a position called Program Lead. The short version is I would be over certain rare drugs and talk with the manufacturer of the drug. I will have people under me who verify the insurance and prior authorizations. It could be up to a 10k increase in pay a year. That would help us remove the debt. We have been working on getting out of debt for the last 4 months. If all goes well we will only have house, car, and husbands student loans by the end of December. The position will help us get out even quicker to be able to hit the car debt sooner.

Steph- the does sound tough. Just because you dont want to go through any of the trauma you experienced during TTC, doesnt mean you are immune to the fact there are others with children who got them easily.. currently TTC or not, its got to be hard. I think you have to do whats right for your own sanity and mental health. I personally would probably pass if I wasnt in the right headspace. You dont need to do that to yourself. Sending you big hugs!

Steph, I remember you talked about the friend who got pregnant. If they're close, can you just talk to them about it? I'm sure they'd understand if you tell them you're just not ready to be around a baby all day. I don't think I'd want to go. Take your time, just because you're not feeling up for it right now doesn't mean you won't feel up for it in a couple of months/years (being around pregnant people/babies that is).
Sarah, that sounds like an excellent opportunity, and yay for hopefully getting out of (consumer) debt soon.

Steph - I could have written that post myself. Your feelings are totally valid. This stuff still burns. I think if your DH was able to go with you then it would be easier for you to manage. Going alone could be overwhelming. I wouldn't blame you at all if you changed your mind.
DH and I are working on trying to trust God's plan for our lives. Until now even though it's been soooooo hard I've always truly believed that it would happen at some point. But I've kind of reached a low now where I'm not so sure. DH still believes and I told him for now he's going to have to believe for both of us because I'm pretty much out of hope.

Happy Friday! How is everyone doing today?
I have taken 2 test in the last 2 days, and both are BFN... Today is day CD10. I haven't tested today. AF is suppose to appear either the 8th or 9th... We will see. Boobs are a little sore and feeling a little sick in the mornings. I am not trying to find every symptom because I don't want to get my hopes up.

Dream, will you skip this upcoming cycle or jump right into the next (unmedicated?) IUI? Any idea what the doctor will suggest next week?
Hope you're doing okay.
Sarah, glad you joined the early-testers-group lol. Hope a second line starts showing up very soon
Have a great weekend ladies!!

11DPO and did first urine test this morning. Still a BFN. Only have the HCG strips that came with my OPK’s. Starting to think all these symptoms are in my head. ����*♀️ Do y’all think it is still early at 11DPO?

Thank you ladies- I honestly love you all!! Always such wise words.
My train tickets etc. were already paid for, so Ive decided to give it another couple of weeks and see how I feel. I am close enough to them all to give them the real reason if I wanted to, but I dont want to come across as a bitter, infertile woman! Not saying they would see me like that, but thats how Id think theyd see me.
Sarah, Im not really the test expert but do think 11DPO could still be early. I doubt the symptoms are in your head, but as we all know, so many of these symptoms could be pregnancy or period.
Hope youre all having good weekends. I had a lovely reunion with two of my uni housemates yesterday. Spent the day drinking and eating in the blazing heat on London Southbank. Now Im sat in my garden with my book wondering how its 3pm on Sunday already!

Back in town from my family vacation. Still waiting for AF.
Appt with my RE Tuesday morning. Not sure if he will increase my letrozole dose or not. As long as nothing funky comes up we plan to go straight into our 3rd and final IUI with the next cycle.

Sarah, any updates? Those symptoms are really nothing to worry about one way or the other. It only means that you ovulated, as they're progesterone related. Fx!!
Steph, that sounds like the perfect weekend
Dream, good luck tomorrow! Glad AF is a little late so that you get to come up with a plan for your upcoming cycle in time.
Tb, is your appointment this week? Happy 12 weeks! The miscarriage rate is only 1.7% at this stage, that's reassuring, right?
