Well, 5dpiui

That's right, 5 days past IUI. For those of you counting, I am considering the first iui to be the "past iui date" because I am really impatient and this makes it seem like time is moving faster. I am dying here in the 2ww though. This is the first "real" one I've had. I have had 2ww's before, but it turned out that I had ever ovulated so I never even stood a chance. Well, I have my progesterone check on Weds. but I am pretty sure I ovulated. Tons of weird things have been going on in my abdomen lately. I think I ovulated the night between IUI #1 and #2 because I went to sleep feeling very aware of my left ovary (which had all of the follies that would have released) and woke up with a lot less pressure there but more bloating. My RE said that I would be bloated for at least a week. I don't mind so long as the bloat is actually taking me somewhere.

I have been really bloated since about 2 days past trigger and I continue to be so bloated that I can't sleep well. I have also been really tired lately, which I am guessing is from the progesterone supplements. Each night I go to bed earlier and earlier and this weekend I slept about 12 hours each night. My nipples are also crazy sore. I have never had sore boobs, ever. This sucks mainlybecuase I am a stomach sleeper. And then there's the cramping that began last night and is in full force today. I am not kidding when I say that I have gone to the bathroom expecting AF to show up only to find nothing. Of course I am glad to not see AF but I don't know what this cramping is all about. I thought implantation occurred 7-10DPO but some people have said that it could be implantation cramping, and these are pregnant ladies so now I don't know. That just seems so early to me, but of course I would be so happy if that were it. I am just hoping that AF stays away. I am planning on testing Sat. morning at 10/11 dpiui. I know that's a little early, but like I said, I'm impatient!
