Hey anyone experience this...I'm on my 2ww, and due for my blood work on Thur(tommorow). My period is reg. and is suppose to come on Friday..(but I hope it doesn't). I spotted on Tue which is about days before my expected period. I'm on progestrone suppositories, and thought I wouldn't have any break through bleeding? I took a hpt yesturday as soon as I spotted, but it showed BFN. Any go through this..any one get a postive reading after a few days?

lifequest-I was on progesterone suppositories when I did both my IUI's, and spotted both cycles just a few days before my period was due. Both of my IUI cycles were bfn. My re said the progesterone affects everyone differently..Some wont get their periods even though they arent pregnant until they stop it, some will spot like I did until I stopped taking it, then it came full force, and some will have a period just like the progesterone wasnt even there. I guess it all depends. Maybe your spotting was something good! I hope you get a BFP out of this!!

CC, thank you for your support...I hope you get a BFP too...keep me posted, when are you going for your BETA?
Good Luck! Your advice sounds right....I'm not going to read to much into it...

You have the right attitude. It can mean different things for everyone. You just never know until you get that beta back! Good luck tomorrow! Im sure it cant come soon enough. No beta for me for awhile, I am starting ivf right now..If all goes well, hopefully by the end of Aug I will have a bfp!

CC, best of luck....my update as of Wed afternoon: No new sypmtoms to report. But just minutes ago, I went to the bathroom and had a lot more blood, I think It's AF, this time...forsure. I do BETA, tommorow, but I'm not confident about my results. Best of Luck to you!!!

Im sorry lifequest. Thats pretty much what happened to me at the end of both my IUI cycles. By the day of my beta I knew it was really my af and not just spotting from being pregnant. Thanks for the luck, I return it to you as well. Will you do another IUI ? How many have you done?

Hey cc, well this was my first IUI, with injections, next month I will do it without meds. than if it doesn't work, in Aug. I will be doing it again with injections. My dr. believes to do it, every other month so my ovaries can take a break. He wants me to do 3 cycles...I guess he means with meds?

Thats a good idea to do every other month w/ the meds..You really do need a break. I ended up having to do that, although it wasnt planned, since I had cysts each time after the bfn and would have to take the month off and take birth control pills to get rid of the cysts. Its good to take a break from the meds. Did you get your beta done today?

CC, I did get my BETA done today, though I have not called them for my results. I know it's a BFN...I have my full blown period as we speak....so I didn't want to hear it from the nurse...
What treatment are you doing now?

 

CC - July 6

Life, Im sorry..That is just what happened to me, exactly. I know how you are feeling. IUI's do work, so you just have to keep plugging along. It really is a maddening effort though. Right now Im on birth control pills to help suppress my cycle, then I will start Lupron, then Bravelle/Menopur..Right now Im just in a holding pattern until I get off the birth control and "really" start.
