So yesterday I'm cleaning my house and all of a sudden I felt lower back pain. I figured it must be from straining while cleaning...no biggie. I sat down for a second to pet my furbaby and felt like i just got my period. But i'm thinking it can't be...it's prob nothing. SO i continue cleaning. Then the cramps started and i was like wow this feels like AF???? So i decided go to the bathroom and tho and behold bright red!!! I was like WTF? I just had my AF less than 2wks ago!! I started freaking out calling my husband, posting on the boards and calling my nurse SIL that has gone through IF treatments too. I kept thinking something's wrong w/me this month. My follistim dose is too high....my mind was running away with me. As I said before I was on bcp for 8 days starting on day 3 of AF ending on the 11th. On the 13th i had my u/s and the 14th i started my meds...15th got my AF... AGAIN!! So I finally called my dr and he said it's normal coming off bcp...follistim hasn't caught up w/your body yet..whatever that means. So i'm thinking it'll prob go away quick and be light..no such luck it's not as heavy as my normal AF cycle but it's still here!!!!
Now honestly I feel like this cycle is going to be a bust now. I dont' know why but I have no confidence that it'll result in a bfp. I know you start taking follistim on day 3 of your AF but I just feel like i'm all screwed up. And on top of it all I'm getting a cold. Guess that has just gotten me down.
Going for my 2nd u/s on the 19th so we'll see how many follies I have growing. They are starting me out at 300 iu's for 5 days... that is also confusing being that my nurse said they were going to start me at a lower dose than the first one (225) and go up slowly so that we can get a quality egg instead of quantity...now she's telling me I didn't respond well last cycle (first I heard) and that they want me to start hard and step down so they have ALOT of follies... watch this month they'll produce too many eggs and my IUI will be cancelled. I'll be so pissed!!!! Thing is there isn't another RE in my area...and this one is 5 mins from my job. I like the dr but I don't like the nurse. She can be such a biotch. So we'll see...i'll update after my u/s on the 19th.
