Susan... how exciting to be cycle buddies! I have just gone and made all my infertility appointments at the University so that I will be able to feel like I'm doing something if it doesn't work for me this cycle, but I'm getting a little hopeful that this might be it, too! I'll be crushed, of course, if the temp tomorrow is down, but if it's up, I'll be ready to do back flips for sure!
I have absolutely no symptoms whatsoever as far as I can tell. I've had every symptom in the book in previous cycles, so I've just decided to discount everything unless it's incredibly weird. The last time I had symptoms I'd never had before, it was AF showing up three days early, UGH! So I'm trying not to scrutinize every twinge, chart how often I pee, or feel my bbs every two minutes (no wonder they hurt sometimes, eh?! *GRIN*).
I will know, one way or the other, by Sunday or Monday. DH goes in for an SA this Friday, so we'll have the results for our initial consult with the RE next Wednesday, if we need it. I'm sticking to the progesterone cream, hoping that will help maintain any pg I'm lucky enough to start.
I couldn't believe how easy it was to get the appointments though. After last month, when I asked my ob-gyn to start some testing and she basically refused, making us wait until a year of ttc had gone by, I was really discouraged. On a bit of a lark, I called the university's clinic thinking that they wouldn't give me an appointment if I didn't have a referral from my ob-gyn, but they did. The nurse even commented on our "only" trying for six months, but understood that we wanted to do some preliminary testing and she was exciting about the fact that I had been charting for 9 months! Wow, I never expected that.
So anyway, I'm hopeful on two fronts: Maybe we're PG, and if not, I've got some testing underway! Yippee.
I have so much hope for you... we'll both keep everything crossed for each other. Are you planning to test? If so, when? I've given up on HPTs and just started waiting for AF to arrive. If she's not here on Monday, I suppose I'll test. I can hardly imagine it.
