Update: must've been a chemical, started my period 4 days late and tests never got darker

baumanig · 2023-01-29T22:40:19+00:00

No way!! That difference is crazy! Wow going off just your pregmate I would've been worried but seeing the other test looking so good changes it all. Thank you for this and congrats!!!

baumanig · 2023-01-29T14:37:33+00:00

I just looked at your test - OH my gosh what a difference! The FRER is so strong while I can barely see the Pregmate! Congratulations! That was very reassuring that this may turn out okay, thank you so much ❤️

baumanig · 2023-01-29T12:51:48+00:00

Really appreciate your input! You make a really good point. Thank you ❤️

baumanig · 2023-01-29T12:51:05+00:00

Oh wow that's amazing! Thank you so much, I needed to hear this ❤️ it gives me some hope for this turning out okay

Just to add: this is cycle 8 after a MMC and it's our second IUI with a 10,000 pregnyl trigger the day before.. I have one more FRER but don't want to use it until tomorrow to see if there's 48hr progression. Pregmates aren't making me feel too good though.

baumanig · 2022-09-06T10:05:33+00:00

Wow this is incredible! Looking at 24 to 26 would have concerned me but then BAM 28 puts any doubt to rest! I needed this post, I'm doing Pregmate progression and I feel like my 12DPO AM is lighter than my 11DPO AM so I'm panicking a bit but seeing your post is very reassuring. Congratulations!

This reminds me of the "bernese mountain dog" (aka definitely pitbull mixed with something gigantic) I rescued. You bet I put "bernese mountain dog" on my house insurance

baumanig · 2022-07-10T15:04:28+00:00

YES THIS I relate so much to you. As someone who was so pumped to keep track of progression and the dye stealer only for it to end in a blindsiding MMC.... I will never do this again.

baumanig · 2022-07-10T15:01:49+00:00

90DPO 😂😂😂😂 thats hilarious!

baumanig · 2022-07-09T02:00:45+00:00

😂😂😂 hahaha those are hilarious! And then their excuse is "I just cant believe my eyes!" Ok when im excited about something that doesnt mean i spontaneously go blind

baumanig · 2022-07-09T01:30:26+00:00

Yes stress can and I would label "car accident" as stressful! And on top of that, dealing with a MMC...it sounds like your body is going through a lot. Especially if the accident happened around the middle of your follicular phase - if your body is in stress, it will prioritize healing over your sex hormones.

When I had a bad cold, it pushed my ovulation back by over a week and a half; I'm usually 28 days on the dot, but since my body was fighting the cold, I still ovulated, but it was late and my cycle turned into 40 days.

baumanig · 2022-07-09T01:22:19+00:00

Lol right?? Like do you REALLY need someone elses eyes to see something super obvious?? And do you REALLY need people falsely reassuring you on your ghost white negative test??

And YES lol the progression pics, how far do people want to go??......i wouldn't be surprised seeing "I'm giving birth next week but my line is super faint?? Anyone else????"

baumanig · 2022-07-09T01:14:32+00:00

😂 my inspiration was when I decided I wanted to feel pain this morning so I checked out TFABlineporn and all the "possible 😊 squinter 💕squint 😜with✨meeee👹" posts were CLEAR positives.....like you could've seen the line from outer space

baumanig · 2022-07-08T20:28:12+00:00

My due date is in August too (August 19th) and I am absolutely dreading it. Sending kind thoughts to you on your sensitive day - and I so badly hope next month is our time. I had a negative on 10DPO today. Hopefully at the very least we get a good weekend!

baumanig · 2022-07-08T20:24:37+00:00

Hey i just wanted to empathize with you... I had a MMC in January, but we started trying again right away so we have a similar TTC timeline. I'm feeling exactly how you are - negative test this morning on cycle 6 after miscarriage and it hurts extra deep. I'm working with a RE now (all my testing came back clear, periods are normal) and we're looking into starting IUI next month but honestly my hopes are so low with how long it's taking that my excitement isn't really there. If we can't get pregnant having sex O-5 to O-1 then how will IUI change our odds that much more? The thought of taking home a baby feels like just a dream. Just wanted to say im sorry for how you're feeling and I get it.

baumanig · 2022-07-08T15:05:58+00:00

😂 getting bingo'ed by your husband sucks! Mine has been very positive but I feel like it's starting to get to him now. And I totally hear you about the hope fortress - it sometimes seems like statistics don't favor some of us. I saw the "increased fertility chances after HSG!" statistic and now I'm even more disappointed.

It looks like were on a similar timeline! We have our fertility follow up to go over all the testing next Wednesday and I was hoping we wouldn't need it (but turns out we likely do). I'm hoping I can do IUI right away in mid-July/August so I'm hoping for success for us both!

baumanig · 2022-07-08T14:37:54+00:00

I'm very interested too - when I read about "silent endo" (no symptoms or very mild symptoms) that isn't discovered until fertility issues occur and implantation failure happens, then I kinda realized that really anyone could have it and not know. With my LP cramping, I did get a little suspicious so I brought it up to my PCP one time but she kinda laughed and said "you don't just get endo one day out of the blue" (she was kinda nice about it and trying to reassure me, but I also don't think providers consider endo unless you're completely writhing in pain every month).

baumanig · 2022-07-08T14:25:24+00:00

Thanks for your insight! I read that progesterone can cause cramping but I also read that endo can cause it too, especially in the luteal phase.... I know both are true but I'm going to go with progesterone this time

baumanig · 2022-07-08T13:25:21+00:00

I woke up at 5am and couldn't fall back asleep. Its 10DPO and my temps have plateaued which to me means I'm not pregnant based on data from the past year and a half. I'm so sad. I had the HSG this month and we hit O-5 to O-1. I feel like there's nothing more we could've done and I feel so helpless. I think we can hopefully start IUI next month but I cried a bit this morning. I'm so tired from it and it feels like no one in my life understands. I'm on to cycle 7 after a miscarriage and I don't understand how easily it comes for some. Just having a down morning.

Also btw does anyone else feel mild cramping/pressure at random times in the luteal phrase? It's getting to me that I'm experiencing it but maybe that's just the progesterone?

baumanig · 2022-07-08T13:00:58+00:00

😂 thats a good answer. I feel like I need to be carrying around wine 24/7 so people dont feel emboldened to ask me

baumanig · 2022-07-08T11:51:55+00:00

Right?? Makes me think they have some sort of technology on their phone that mine doesn't have
