And she's here

AF arrived this morning. I'm only 11 DPO which makes me think luteal phase defect.

I had my hopes up too much with that crazy test, so I'm a little more disappointed than I expected this morning. We weren't even technically trying this cycle.

But- I have the best mood booster about 90 minutes away.

My cousin/BFF is unexpectedly coming into town and will be staying with me for about 5 days. This includes her adorable daughter and my godddaughter Leah. So I am excited about that. I have missed both of them SO much and it's a much needed visit.

And honestly, my mood has been 1000x better in the last week. I don't think it has anything to do with the RE appointment, or anything else, but my depression seems to have lifted, even if just a bit. I feel great. And that means a lot for me!

    Samantha- I'm planning to call my RE today. I am pretty sure they wanted to do bloodwork on CD3. But beyond that I am just hoping that I O on my own again with the Metformin.

    *hugs* I am sorry about the BFN. :(

    If you do have a luteal phase defect the doc can put you on progesterone right after "O" this basically will have your period like clockwork and if you are pregnant, the extra progesterone is good for the baby. It made my cycle very predictable during TTC.

    Glad you are in a good mood but boo for no BFP. 11 days is an awfully short luteal phase. I'd definitely get that checked. Good luck.

    So sorry that AF showed up for you. We are both starting a new cycle on the same day. Fingers crossed that we both get our BFPs this cycle.
