Upon my suspicion that I hadn't ovulated, my RE sent me for a progesterone test. Sure enough, yesterday's results indicated I hadn't ovulated. So she had me start testing with OPK's again. The morning opk was pretty dark, but not 100% positive. Throughout the day, they got lighter and lighter. I just felt like I should have gone in. And this morning, that thought was confirmed when I took my temperature. Temp was up today - I ovulated yesterday. So my cancelled and then un-cancelled cycle turned into a missed cycle. Sigh.

But now we can move on. We know how my body reacts to clomid. So we can treat the things we need to treat.

I'm reading a book called the TAO of Fertility and I'm really enjoying it. There are actually a lot of things in it that I'd like to do anyway, regardless of doing it for fertility. I'm also looking for an acupuncturist who specializes in fertility, and will start that up ASAP.

So lots of stuff happening, and we're optimistic for the moment. Now I just have to wait for TOM to hurry and get here in 2 long weeks. So it looks like my next IUI opportunity will be late June/early July. It's SO long to wait, especially with my diminishing supply.
