Well, kisses on all of your heads. I love my ladies who comment and I tiny pink puffy heart my stalkers who don't ever talk to me.
Why U No Comment, little lurkers?!?! Don't be shy. I promise only to make fun of you if you say stupid stuff. :) I need to give away free cash to those who comment. Yep. That's what I will do. If you comment, I will think real hard about giving someone a million dollars. (J/k if I had a million dollars I would be on a beach somewhere with no human interaction.)
To satisfy your lurky cravings, here's the sporadic reproductive update:
I'm 10 dpo. And spotting.
This can mean one of about 5 options. Number 1 and 2 are I'm pregnant or I'm not pregnant.
No. 3 is implantation bleeding. We all know how much I believe in that shiz. I think Santa comes around more often than IB does.
No. 4 is rough sex spotting. Only problem to that theory is I haven't had rough sex.
No. 5 is the IF train is packing on more baggage and my LP is shortening or progesterone is plummeting fast.
I am not temping, even though we weren't being monitored this month. Since it was a no meds/natural cycle, I only used OPKs even though I know I should have temped.
Ain't nobody got time for that!!!
So here I wait. Just waiting impatiently for these last few days to go by and we can start the next cycle. I'm 90% positive that we will do this cycle as injects + IUI.
If that doesn't work then I don't know where we go from there. No use thinking about it now though, am I right?
Do I get a cookie for leaving the first comment?? I love stalking your blog, I could stand a few more pics of your cute pup though ;) Can I ask a question? You mention spotting at 10DPO and lower progesterone - is spotting before AF something to worry about (especially with a slightly shorter LP)?
ReplyDeleteNot necessarily. My RE said my spotting from 12-14 dpo is normal and isn't because of low progesterone. It's a sign that the progesterone is dropping because AF is coming. However, in addition to my Endo, I'm diagnosed with weak ovulation which means I have a less than desired progesterone level throughout my LP. It's slightly under the 10 mark that he wants on an unmedicated cycle.
DeleteSpotting can be caused by a number of reasons, hence, my jokes and confusion in the post. It really can be caused by so many factors. As long as your LP is within normal ranges, even with spotting before AF, I wouldn't be worried. But if your LP was 6 days, proven by charting and you spotted from 2dpo, then I would be concerned. Keep temping, charting and learn about your body. It can take several months to see what your body's normal range will be especially if you're just coming off birth control. Hope that helps! And yes, you get an imaginary cookie for being the first post! :)
You're so funny! I am still praying for option 1 and 3 for you!!
ReplyDeleteI like to think I am your number one commenter (is that a word?). I think I should automatically win the prize. Or a cookie.
ReplyDeleteIf it's not a word, then it should be! I wish I had stats on who comments the most. I would say that you're probably right!
DeleteCookies and cash for everyone!!!!! Make it rain!!!!
I'm using up all the worlds supply of exclamation points today. Sorry. :)
