Don't see anything Nann but 9 dpo is still pretty early!
Oh my gosh Tfahn, that's crazy! Really confusing...did you take a HPT last cycle during the TWW? I've never heard of clomid causing false positive HPTs but then again I don't know much about that med. I hope you get answers soon.
But I had my period and below coverline temps. I had different blood work yesterday and my progesterone level was <1, I guess I could be having a MC if I somehow was pregnant, that is one of the scenarios in my head for the bleeding cause. Stalking my hospital portal page to look for the blood test results. I just need to know what is going on.
Yes I took pregnancy tests last cycle On Dec 22-24, all 3 days were BFN, then started my period on the 26th.
I don't know if it's the same thing or not but one of my first cycles of clomid I had this really weird reaction... I had AF and then a week later AF showed again. In my case it happened at the END of the cycle not the beginning though and I never tested so I have no idea about that aspect... I really hope everything works out ok. Prayers and hugs!Quote:

Thanks TwoinTow.
Hi Nann, I can't see anything I'm afraid, but I rarely do on my iPad!
Tfahn, that is really strange. Fingers crossed all is well, keep us updated
Tfahn update when you find out. I've never heard that happening either but I've learned that when ttc anything crazy (and most likely harmless) that can happen, will happen!
Nann I feel like that all the time but then I really need to hear how other women are doing. It's a constant battle and it sucks. Hoping we're close to the end of the road.

Well not great news under the circumstances. The HCG blood test was 154 but the progesterone was <1 so technically I am pregnant. They are doing a repeat HCG on Friday. So with the bleeding today I can only assume that I am having a MC or its possible it's an Etopic pregnancy with the low hormones levels. I had a normal period, 2 days of heavy/med flow and then 2 days of light/spotting before starting the Clomid and since it was a normal period for me I never took another pregnancy test. So along with the Clomid I took I also started taking the Mucinex tablets the other day, and took some Tylenol and aspirin for a bad headache. Just feeling incredibly guilty over the whole thing. It might have been a bad outcome regardless of the Clomid but it doesn't stop the guilt. The low progesterone points to a bad outcome so I guess I just need to wait it out until Friday.
I'm so sorry :'( I certainly can understand the guilt but it may help u to know that it's a completely normal reaction no matter the circumstances surrounding the miscarriage. (((Hugs))) Try not to be hard on yourself, I'd never have considered the possibility if pregnancy after BFNs and AF showed and I'd dare say nobody else would have either. You had no way of knowing you were pregnant and you did nothing wrong. Hugs!!Quote:

I'm so sorry Tfahn. :( This wasn't your fault...you had no idea you were pregnant and even got what appeared to be AF. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that everything will turn out okay. Keep us updated. Big hugs!
You did nothing wrong and things may still turn out okay. Fx for you!
So sorry to hear this news tfahn.. Keeping you in my prayers. Please don't blame yourself. Everything happens for a reason and there's no way of knowing what caused this. So you can't dissect all your decisions else you'll go crazy! Hopeful that everything is going to be alright.. /:
Thanks Twointow and ksmom. Just not looking forward to explaining everything to DH tonight, He knew I was bleeding this morning but he has no idea about anything else. It just sucks cause I really thought December was going to be our month, I had the HSG done and 10 DPO was my DH's birthday and DD1 original due date. I tested Dec 22-24 but didn't Christmas morning for some reason and bleeding started the 26th. My temps still don't reflect a pregnancy in my opinion which I guess is caused by my low progesterone levels.
Tfahn, I don't think this was your fault at all and I hope you are feeling a little better. My dr once told me women could go through a lot with a healthy pregnancy and it would work out fine but if a pregnancy is not healthy, nothing will change that. I'm so sorry to hear this though. I completely understand having so many emotional ideas attached to a certain due date.
I really hope the next news you get helps bring some peace. I'll be thinking of you and your dh.

I have read a lot of stories on the internet about the same thing happening to other women. They had normal for them periods and then took clomid. Some had successful pregnancies, some other had miscarriages. I would hold out some hope for a good outcome on Friday if my progesterone level was higher. My progesterone was at 11.2 on 12/21 when checked midcycle but with a level of <1 and pregnant that is what is troubling. The RE did offer to give me progesterone supplements but I think, and they agreed, that if the progesterone is that low then something is wrong with the fetus and it is not signaling my body to make progesterone for a reason. At this point I am just praying that it is not an Etopic
I would echo what the other ladies have said, you had no way of knowing. This is such an emotional journey. Could they scan you to find out if it is an ectopic or is it too early?
Thanks Quinn and TTC2015. I think the RE is waiting til Friday to see the new numbers and go from there in regards to scans/next steps.
Thinking about you tfahn. Will keep you in my prayers as well. And yes, like the others said, there would be no way to know or think you were pregnant after AF.
Tfahn, I'm keeping you in my prayers! I know it's hard not to play scenarios and what ifs in your head, but please know you did not cause this! I know it's hard right now being in limbo. The same thing happened to me before I conceived DS2 (except I wasn't on Clomid). It sucks, I know but I'm praying that you conceive your rainbow baby soon!
Huge hugs!!

Thinking of you Tfahn & sending big ((hugs))
Oh wow Tfahn, I'm so sorry you are going through this. It is very unusual and your chart did not look like a pregnancy one at all. I would have taken the clomid too without even considering being pregnant in that situation. I really hope you find out what is going on soon.
Meanwhile I'm too busy reading the forum to notice ants are all over my lunch :( I think I managed to save it so I won't go hungry. I hope that provides some laughs for you guys :)
Are ants allowed on LE diet?
Purple I think ants are fine as long as you don't go over on protein. ;) :giggle:
Haha purple, made me laugh while I'm having a bit of a late lunch of sausage & eggs.

Oh no tfahn! You really didn't do anything wrong and most of us would have done the exact same thing in your situation. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you that things work out. You never know. (((HUGS)))
Well my chart went crazy, my jaw dropped when I saw the temp. And I'm cramping again. Any of you ladies who have gone IVF, did you have uterine cramping on Gonal-F/FSH?
That's a huge temp spike! No ides about the cramping, is it painful?
Hard to day bc I sm on strong opiates 24/7 but since I feel it through that I guess somewhat? Ibuprofen would probably do the trick but of course I can't take it.
What's weird is I have a retroverted uterus so during AF my cramping is mostly in my low back. Alllll the cramping I've had this cycle has been in the front. 2 years ago, same time of year, I had a similar front cramping post O. I was TTC but BFN.
Naturally since I've typed this post the pain has ratcheted up, grr. I'd say it's close to AF level. Maybe AF is about to arrive? But with that temp jump? I am so confused! I do sometimes have really short LPs so anything is possible.
Implantation cramping maybe? When I got pregnant back in October, I had the worst cramping at 7 dpo. It was so bad that I had to breathe through it like I was in labor! lol It felt like contractions or strong AF cramps. My temp had also jumped up by 0.7 that morning. I hope it's a good sign for you Maiden!
I don't remember any cramping from the gonal f Maiden, later on with ohss I had a lot of discomfit and bloating but the gonal f was pretty symptom free.
Another bfn 10dpo ugh.. /:
Ok so someone suggested I put the test on a white surface for my pic so I did, but I since it was a quick last minute pic, it was taken 26 minutes after I tested. Is this an evap? Or could these be a faint line. Tell me straight! I can handle it! :)

Or my mind is tricking me once again and there's no line.. Booooooooooo lol
I don't think I see anything Nann, sorry. :( After 10 minutes the tests are invalid. I got a few evaps this TWW (I even dipped one in plain water and still a light gray line showed up). FX for a BFP soon!
I don't see anything, sorry nann

Yeah I figured as much [emoji17]
Thanks ksmom and tfahn.
I've had cramping on 2DPO, 4DPO, and today, 6DPO. The cramping on 2DPO was the worst, with weird pain on the sides I have never felt before. I suspect maybe that was my tubes working the eggs down?
The cramping at 4DPO was the mildest but lasted the longest. Today it was pretty brief. But then not long after I noticed my breasts are tender (which I've never had without my nips being sensitive also), they tingle uncomfortably in response to slight pressure.
Wouldn't 6DPO be too early for implantation? Especially since I BDed so late on O day so more 5DPO + 9 hours. That definitely seems too early. I think it must just be the drugs and the fact that I have all those extra nerves (3x normal at least in my peripheral nervous system). Plus I have always been very sensitive to hormones, whether synthetic or natural.
I temped later in the day and my temp was nearly 100 (and I lie in bed all day), so I do think my temp today was valid. What's strange is I am normally warm/hot after O, but this cycle I was hot before and have been freezing since. The warmer I get the colder I feel! Overall it's just a crazy cycle. I hope I react less to Clomid next cycle, I'm kinda worried now!
Nann, I'm sorry I don't see anything. But cheapies are rarely sensitive.
Sorry nann, I don't see anything :(
maiden- 5DPO is the absolute earliest the egg can implant as it takes that long for it to hatch. So, it IS possible to have implantation on 5 DPO :) FX for you!
Nann, my FRER was really faint at 10dpo so I'm not surprised that test isn't showing anything this early. Keep hope!! [emoji92]
I'm stalking so much as most of you are getting close to testing! I love seeing the BFPs!

Nann - sorry I can't see anything either, but 10 Dpo is still early. Fx a bfp will show in a day or two.
Maiden - fx this is your bfp cycle.
