Just read a really good article about progesterone supplements that I found this morning, sounds like it is only really helpful with IVF patients. I don't think if I would have started taking them 4 days ago like the RE wanted would have changed anything, which made me feel better.

Fingers crossed for you 1moregirl.
Its so weird my pregnancy with my youngest my DS and I had few mc after him but since my son when I am pregnant right before I find out my first symtpom is always that indigestion heartburn feeling. Even with my first DS, that's what kept me from not worrying because I had that constant indigestion lol.
This time I don't have it which is weird because since my DS who is now 2 each pregnancy I had it. I didn't have it with DD I didn't even know I was pregnant till 10 weeks, I just was scared to test, but I did feel little sick at time but mostly tired. I know I'm early but just weird because indigestion always starts 8dpo with my DS and past two pregnancies that I miscarried further along. Not my chemical last month.
I just get tender boobs at times.DS *11/07*
DD *03/09*
DS *01/14*
DD *11/16*
Praying for one more Daughter
I am so thankful and blessed!

Tfahn, so sorry about the temp drop. I honestly really thi k you need Femara as you are not responding to Clomid even at 100mg. I want to see you Oing earlier with a 14 day LP. If I could, I'd start you on 5mg Femara CD3-7.
Glad you got another attempt in, 1moregirl.

Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic
Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner

Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

I have an appt with the RE for Monday. I will ask about the Femara, not sure they will give me that or not, they have never mentioned that drug before. Have you ever taken it Maiden? I am also going to ask about getting scanned around the time I ovulate to check egg sizes and lining just to see what is going on.

Princessmom your beta level sounds great and yay for good progesterone! FX the hcg doubles!
Best of luck BR!!
Maiden and PBN, your charts are looking good so far.I'm really, REALLY hoping both of you get BFPs this month!
Tfahn, I'm so sorry.I really thought this was your month. I hope the RE is able to prescribe Femara or try something else different so you can get your long awaited BFP. It's so not fair you've been trying so long!
Good luck 1moregirl! I hope you catch the egg!
I had my RE appointment today and good news is, pretty much everything looks great! DH's SA was good, especially his sperm count which was quite high. The RE said my progesterone was a little low along with my prolactin. I thought I O'ed a few days ago but my temps don't reflect it so I told the doctor I'm now on CD26 with no ovulation. So next cycle, she's prescribing Femara and I'm supposed to go in for a few blood tests then an ultrasound. If I get pregnant, I'll be put on progesterone then have an early ultrasound to make sure baby is in the right spot. I'm really excited to be taking Femara considering how frustrated I get with late O!'12

Ksmom, that is awesome about the Femara. Maybe you will get pregnant this cycle and not need it!
tfahn, my dr won't prescribe Femara, especially bc I already respond 'well enough' to Clomid. I don't fully agree bc I'm still Oing late. But I'm just now 35 and age makes a difference. Older women do a lot better on Femara over Clomid. Femara is truly a wonder drug, very effective, safe, with no side effects, I want to be on it sooooo badly.
