I went for a Beta this morning and I'm 14DPO & no AF. but I'm also on progesterone.. I took a HPT and it was a BFN!!! If the HPT came up negative why would the beta be positive after 14DPO??? I'm really just think I'm out.. I'll update for sure when I get the results..
Update.. BFN!!!!! I hate this!!! Now my insurance doesn't cover anymore so I have to pay $1400 for next cycle!!! Well at least I start clomid this month & I might have an IUI..

I'm sorry!!
Have you had an IUI before? They are really no big deal and totally painless. I had one yesterday and today.
Nope I've never had one done.. I just discussed it with DH and he said we can proceed with everything else but he's not ready to do the IUI yet & neither am I. We both agreed that if I'm not pregnant by 6 more months then we will go ahead with it. But for now I have to wait for TBAF to come and I will start clomid this month.. Thank you for your support And I really hope that your IUI's take this month & you get your BFP!!!!!

Sorry you didn't get your BFP. I am sure it will happen soon. Stay hopeful!!
I was curious though, why would you wait a few more months before trying an IUI? It's so not a big deal and all it does is increase your odds of conceiving. For me having the IUI was a no brainer. I wanted to do EVERYTHING in my power to conceive. When I got pregnant with my DD I had one egg and one IUI and I was pregnant. Of course there is no knowing if I conceived because of the IUI or because of all the BD'ing but in the end it's irrelevant how my DD arrived here just that she's here. I was SO glad to have the IUI because for me, I was game for anything that would increase my odds even if it was only by a little bit. If I was going to be monitored anyway and going to be taking meds to try and get pregnant it was worth the one extra step to TTC faster.
With the IUI all you're doing is cutting out the "travel time". They basically take your DH's sample, clean it to get rid of all the bad sperm and then insert the sample of good quality sperm into your cervix right where it needs to be so when the egg is released the little guys are there waiting and ready to go. There is really nothing to it. You're in and out in like 15 minutes.
Just my opinion but if you're going to take the Clomid you may as well have the IUI because the RE will be monitoring you closely, they will know exactly when your eggs are ready, they can give you the trigger shot so you know exactly when you'll ovulate, and then to have the IUI will only increase your odds.
Anyway, just wanted to share my opinion and experience because for me, the highlight of my cycles was having the IUI and knowing a whole "batch" of good sperm was already up there waiting for an egg. It also takes some pressure off the need to BD a gazillion times.
