Being on progesterone this cycle has been an interesting experience. I had my normal TWW symptoms start once the meds upped my progesterone levels, which was fine. Now that I've ovulated, whoa-my goodness...my bbs and back are killing me and the nausea is kicking in as well. I suppose, on the bright side, I know what to expect when I finally get that BFP. Now I'm just waiting...I've got another 5 days to get off the meds, then I'll have AF, and then we can get back to TTC.
Good luck Ella... I know when I was on meds I hated it
- made me feel awful... That was years ago... Are you doing the prog. suppositories? Now I take the natural progesterone cream (Fertilica) that I put on skin morning and night (1 pump) - it's not as strong as the meds though. I do notice it gives me tiny little pimples on my back when I'm using during the luteal phase. Just that little extra security incase I do get preggers that the bean will hang on.
Hope next month is the one for you and everything goes back to normal or better!!
Thanks dashka! I'm taking the pill, three times a day, and it's terrible because I keep forgetting to take them in the morning when I'm rushing out to work. I've got rearrange my morning routine. The pimples have been terrible this time around too. This is probably the first TWW that I'm not eager to test in, because I'm fairly sure we missed the egg. But today was another EWCM day...I do get multiple patches in my TWW, so that could be it, but it's so confusing at times, especially since I have no idea what's going on with my cycle. FF changed my ov date range again...between CD6 and CD19 at the moment (it was between CD6 and 15 four days ago.

This is one long waiting game isn't it Ella? At least you know you are not alone. Things are looking good for you
and lots of luck to you
The TWW is always so long....but this one is even longer than usual. I can't wait to be back in the TTC game. Taking a month off was a month too long.
Good luck and lots of dust to you too!!
