The crinone made me feel pretty strange too. When I was pg I took a hpt at 10dpiui (it was Mother's Day) and it was BFN. I did not believe I was pg at all. I went in to take the blood test just so I could start the next cycle. When it came back BFP, I was shocked. My little guy was probably a late implanter since my beta was only 40 at 14dpiui. At 12dpo, my beta was probably only ~20 or less - most hpt's would not have picked that up. I agree with misslollipop - 2 days can make a big difference. The beta is supposed to double every 48-72 hours - the number starts at 0. It takes a few days to be detectable. Fingers crossed!

keep positive, 2days can make a big difference, when it comes to hcg levels, they might have been low that a test may not have picked up, and might be the right level on wednesday, good luck hope you get the BFP..

I'm super bummed tonight and need some support and encouraging words. So fri I started to spot but my RE wanted me to start progesterone suppositories that night. I have been taking them for 3 nights and no spotting. I called RE today to ask if prog can delay AF and told her aboutthe spotting on Friday. She said that it is possible. She asked me to take a home pregnancy test today and call her back. It was a BFN :( she told me to test again on Wednesday (which will be 14 DPO) and it is a BFN again to stop taking the prog and wait until AF comes :( :( I said "if Wed is a BFN again is it safe to say that I'm not PG" and she said yes :( has anyone experienced this?? Will 2 days make a difference? My bb's aren't as sore as they have been. This progesterone really puts me into a funk!! I'm bummed :(

I spotted yesterday and started prometrium last night. Only side effect was a headache today. Of course it came on the day that I had to host my BFFS baby shower lol the spotting stopped today so I'm not sure what that is all about :( def think about it all the time and trying to stay busy! Hope you are having a good weekend!

The more I try to not think about it, the more I do. Great that you definitely O'd. I took prometrium pills once before. I felt nothing. The only difference btn that month and the other months is that my AF was late. It was the only month my AF was late - I'm usually like a clock. But my AF did not come until 2 days after I stopped taking the prometrium. Fingers crossed. SSBD!

Thanks for your kind words! The new job def helped this week to take my mind off but not completely lol
So... RE called today and said that my progesterone level was 9.7 and that I def O'd. She said that my prog level should be 10+ and wanted me to start progesterone suppositories tonight. It is prometrium. Anyone else on this right now? Any symptoms? I wiped today and it looks like AF might be on the way :( she said to do prog until full flow and stop. If AF doesn't come to start poas Wednesday. I hope it is implantation bleeding but I'm trying to be realistic and not pessimistic :) if AF comes... Starting all over again next cycle :)

lamttc - I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you. It's not over until AF shows up or a blood test says you are not pg.

Kellykonnor - congrats on the new job! Hopefully that is making the tww go by faster.

SSBD!

I'm sorry about AF showing up. the 1st and 2nd cycles i did, AF showed the day before my beta. i was told if i was having a full flow that i didnt need to get the beta but it's good to go anyway just to make sure. good luck on your next cycle.... i hope it happens for you soon.

yeah its pretty weird..the sore boobs are a constant..Ive had heartburn (now gone), and cramping every so often.  Im trying not to over think it all but is so tough.  Yesterday I was craving pb&j sandqwich...cravings? The mind is a powerful thing and when your emotions are wrapped in it; its the worst combination!!!
Tomorrow I go in to get tested...Im almost out of the TWW..I see the light at the end of the tunnel...lets hope there is lots of sunshine and rainbows on the other side. = )

Hi girls! Started my new Job this week so I haven been MIA. I went to have my progesterone test today. They have to send it to the lab so it might take 2 days to get it back. They said that if I don't get AF by next Wed to take a HPT. If it is positive ... I need to come in for blood test. If BFN then to call them to get the next step. I'm trying not to think about it but my bb's hurt sooo much and have been since Sunday night. I'm soo scared that AF is around the corner :( I'm getting pretty bad headaches also for the past 2 days and tired. I'm not taking progesterone or anything else so I'm not sure what is causing it. Anyone else having these symptoms??

Holdnmybreath - the first time I took prog I had "symptoms" - my bbs were so sore and I was exhausted; I also ended up getting pg that cycle. This time I also took prog and just had minor cramping no other symptoms. I know last time I felt the symptoms too soon to be b/c of the pg, but it does make me wonder.

Kellykonnor - what did your RE say?

Everyone - SSBD! I'm looking forward to hearing about some BFPs.

Sorry to hear....I was hoping for the best for you...and ALL of us to be exact.
So..Friday is my day...I am trying not to think about...hence I took a break from visiting the site yesterday.
I am very nervous everytime I go to the bathroom..dreading that AF will appear.   Aside from that my boobs/nipples are sore, ...anyone else having "symptoms"...or on prog..still cant figure out if this from it...???
