Happy Monday ladies~ or not. I had my IUI yesterday. All went GREAT! Dh's count was through the roof. I had 2-4 follies that were ready. Now it is just waiting.

ingenue~ how did the u/s go? inquiring minds want to know. LOL

Stacy~ Good luck Thursday, I hope that this one is a winner. LOL about the chiropractor, I did not know that it could be benificial. I went two days before my IUI. Ill take any help possible.

morenas~ I am glad that you and baby are doing well after such a rough start. It is an inspiration that there is always hope. I hope its all wonderful from here.

Ellimae u/s is tomo morning...will update u as soon as I can. I'm nervous..I think my iui will prob be sunday. In which case, we're pretty much doing time together in the 2ww mental/emotional prison! Lol xx

Alrndn thanks for the tip, will ask my doc if this cycle is a bust. I hope to God it works for me this month! X

ingenue~ Sorry about that but now how did the u/s really go? FX that you have lots of great follies and you can do the IUI Sunday. I guess you are right we will be stuck in the everlasting tww together. It is a long one, no doubt. I am trying to distract myself as much as possible but it does not seem to be working all that well. Keep us posted. Ill be waiting to hear the report

Did my ultrasound today-seems I only have one folli ready-ish at 15, what's the normal size required for iui? .all those pills and just one! We're gonna do trigger shot on fri, and do back to back iui's sat and Sunday.
What's happening with everyone?

Had my IUI this morning. Everything went good! DH count was 11 million total motile sperm which they said is good. This one did not hurt, the last one was pretty painful. They said to test on oct 26th (2 weeks from the day of HCG shot). I am currently laying on the couch with my legs in the air, haha!

Elliemae I am wishing you the best and praying that this is your time!

Ingenue, I only had one my first IUI, but this time i had 2. I think like 19-21 is normal but not sure. mine were 16 and 17 on monday so they wanted to do it today to let them get bigger. I hope this is your time! Im ready for some BFP's!!!!!

Hi ladies, did my iui today everything went well....my dhs sperm numbers were borderline good. I think stress is really effecting his guys :( initially we wanted to do 2 iui's but my doc doesn't think it'll make a difference and dh is gnu out of town tmomo, so be it.
Officially on my 2ww. Fx for all of us!

AF came on thursday. :( i'm done with fertility drugs. i don't have faith that my dr. can get me pregnant. i have spent way too much time, money, and effort. my husband and i are moving ahead with our adoption. i guess pregnancy is just not for me. i still wish the best to all of you. i hope your 2ww goes fast and you get a great outcome. baby dust to all.

Hello Ladies, I've read blogs like this a million times over and over. Decided I wanted to be a part of it.. I need anything that could help me stay sane in this struggle. Am 24 years old and been TTC for almost 2 yrs now. My RE says I have PCOS but that there is a solution.. I was put on clomid 50g (didn't do anything to me) now i just finished a second round 100g this time. I have my appt for sono wednesday 10/20/2010. I pray that there are some mature follies in there! I will keep yall posted! I will pray for all of yall and baby dust by the tons to all!!!!!

ingenue: I am praying this one sticks for you! how are you feeling?
when can you test?

abster86: let us know how your u/s goes today! hope you have lots of good follicles!

 

abster86 - October 20

stacy1225: my follicles are not at the size my doctor wants them to be yet. Since they are so close, she wants to see me again this Friday am.
I hope i get a green light then! Am growing more and more anxious!

 

stacy1225 - October 24

Elliemae: Have you tested yet? ready to hear from ya! hope you have some exciting news to tell us!!

Abster: did you go back for your repeat u/s? how were your follicles? when do you do iui?

I test this tuesday. I am not feeling very positive about it cause i have been having on and off cramps for like a week now. Pretty sure AF is going to show her ugly face but I am still trying to be positive! Baby dust to all!

 

stacy1225 - October 26

well i tested this am, BFN! BOO!!!! Still havent started period yet but i feel it coming....

 

abster86 - October 26

Stacy1225 & all:

:( this is my sad face... no mature follies.. My Dr. wasn't there so I have been scheduled for a consulation to discuss the next step.. My nurse said it would be injectables or provera to induce my period and start all over again. I have an appt today at 1:45. I believe i have a sono too.. to take a last look and make sure if my follies haven't grown since. Am so sad.. i hope for some better news or some new light to hope.. Thanks for your support.

Have spent over 2 hours reading these blogs and finally decided to join. My husband and I have been ttc for 2+ years. After our first attempt at IUI on 10/15 and 10/16, we just took a hpt and it was a BFN. It's really tough to not be sad. It has helped to read these, thanks so much for sharing. Knowing I'm not alone is nice.

 

hopefulstill - November 4

I have been reading posts for a while, and it has been so helpful. I finally decided to post. We have been ttc for 2 years now. We had twins 2 1/2 years ago that lived only about an hour, dying within 10 minutes of each other. We have had several miscarriages since. We did 4 IUI w/ clomid, to no avail. I have low progesterone, so we have been trying natural w/ prometrium for 4 months. we needed a break from IUI. I got a BFN this morning. I guess we are going back to the dr to see our next step, which I know is injectables. I am trying not to be mad at God, but it is so hard. I was so sure this time. Actually, if I had gotten PG this time, my due date would have been my twins birthday- I just knew that was a sign. Dumb, but I was trying to cling to hope. I am amazed at how hard this is on my self esteem. I have never had a problem with that before, but I feel worthless now. I hate what this is doing to me - but to stop trying doesn't feel like it will fix anything - so I keep going. I will be ok after I start and I can move on to the next month, ya know? Thanks for being here. It is comforting to know others have been here but have had success.
