I think I am just fooling myself that my period is implantation bleeding. It is day 11 after IUI and saw red yesterday. It happened to be my husbands birthday too. This was the second try. My last period came on my birthday. I have recently concluded that only people who are going thru this can possibly understand the way that we feel because they just don't get it! I have had people ask about the process and LAUGH when I tell them! Laugh??? I am frustrated.

You are only hoping that it will be the real thing. I do it all the time.
Take care.

I'm sorry, people can really be so inconsiderate when they can not speak intelligently on the subject. Just ignore them. It's all you can do. I've never had Implantation bleeding with either of my pregnancies but I understand that if you do it's like spotting. But everyone is different. Stay positive. Good luck!

You know, I think it's ok for me to joke about the "turkey baster" method but it was my sister in law who has 3 kids who laughed when I had to explain how hub gives the sperm. I am very defensive of him so it angered me. Thanks for your notes, zozo and GMLAH. I truly wish you success in this endeavor that has brought us together.

Yikes! I sound like a big ball of anger. I need to lighten up! You will see that I am normally a lot more fun and happy. I am not making a great first impression

It is okay to be angry. We love you and understand exactly how you are feeling
:-)
Did you get full flow or just a little blood?

deleted_user 10/27/2007

I understand the laughing thing...I know it doesn't help, but from a psychological./counseling perspective...when people are uncomfortable they laugh...more people need to learn to control this..and I just want to smack them when they don't..but you would be shocked how many of my client laugh about inappropriate things...especially the imature ones.

Lioness: thanks so much for the love! So far, just some blood. I am hoping hard that the whole flow doesn't show. I haven't even had my endometrial biopsy yet (scheduled Mon) so it seems kind of early for AF but it feels like she's almost here.

Idahobaby:

You know, you're right. There is a lot of laughing to mask discomfort. That was a comment I needed to hear. It lets me get to acceptance. Thanks!

deleted_user 10/28/2007

here is to hoping the blood is from implant bleeding! Baby dust your way.

deleted_user 10/28/2007

Sweetie hopfully you will laugh at her with you get your bfp. If I was you I wouldn't even explain anyone what I am going through.
Good luck to you

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
