Frustrated (venting)

2nd round IUI. Clomid + trigger. Monitoring this time. Everything looked great. LH was great. Sperm count great. No cramps this time with IUI. Trigger made me feel the egg release. 3 follicles (19, 13, 13)

Day 8 DPIUI??? Not one @$# symptom. Nothing. Nada. Backache but I sit all day so no wonder why I have a backache. Crabbiness yesterday and today. But had that last time. Heck, I even had implantation spotting last time. This time? Nothing. Not even good egg white CM. Last time, I was a mess. hahaha.

Last time I had every symptom of pregnancy after my IUI and got a BFN. This time? Zero symptoms so I feel like it's going to be another BFN.

I'm so mad. I just feel like my body teases me. I have zero answers as to why I can't get pregnant. Husband's friend announcement dinner tonight and I'm just starting to feel b*tchy about it because I know they'll ask what the problem is. I don't have an answer.

And I think part of my crabbiness is that we have one more IUI if this one doesn't take and that's it. After that, it's off to IVF and I so don't want to do it but we have zero money for adoption and I really want to give it my all in trying for my own. I know that sounds mean, especially since I'm adopted, but I finally get what a friend of ours said when she went through IVF--she wanted her own.

Sigh and grrrrr.

I know all of these ups and downs are soooo incredibly tough with this whole ttc thing!! But I think that if you got a BFN last cycle with all of those symptoms that its a good thing your not having all the same symptoms as last month since it ended with BFN!    Change from the normal BFN symptoms might mean something big!!!! a BFP!!! lots of people i  know had fewer actually NO symptoms on their BFP month! I hope this is it for yall!!! GOOD LUCK!!! keep us updated!!

I'm with bny.....I think this could be a good thing.  You aren't feeling anything, which means you aren't feeling any PMS symptoms either.  Most people don't get any symptoms until 13-14 dpIUI or O.  I think you need to stay positive....it ain't over till it's over.

Thanks guys for the support. I know it's early and I sound whiney. The only on and off symptom I have is crabbiness but it isn't out of the ordinary. I know my husband agrees with the both of you. Who knows. I'll keep you posted. Thank you for the support.

Update...

Went to my husband's best friend's pregnancy annoucement (just the 4 of us). Guess what? She got pregnant on HER FIRST TRY. I thought it was 4 months trying. Nope. Did it once, bam, it worked.

I know it's rare but come on.
