anyone starting the tww this week?

Looking for cycle buddies - Anyone starting the tww this week?

this is my 2nd iui TTC #2. I took Follistim CD3-9. I over-responded and had to coast the past few days while my RE monitored my b/w and follicles to see if the iui would be canceled. On Monday I had 16 measurable follies and the biggest 8 were all within 2 mm of each other. After coasting for a few days, it looks like I will release 2 maybe 3. Hopefully this is our lucky cycle! Me and my DH are blessed to have a beautiful baby boy and we would love to give him a baby brother or sister.

Docsaf-Im anxiously awaiting your results as well!!! I am not on Crinone, nor on pregesterone so Im not sure why they are hurting so badly.I was reading and alot of sites say that they can hurt right after conception because the progesterone is already started and thats what makes them sore, not after implantation. So maybe thats why yours hurt at 2dpiui when you were pregnant that cycle. I dont know whats going on but they are so sore!! I dont really have any other symptoms so Im trying to stay realistic. My cm was little scarce yesterday but seems to be picking up again  today. Im 9dpiui so Im hoping this week goes by fast as my beta is monday.

Kikkleh-Im soo excited for your BFP cant wait to hear more, I hope you keep us posted.

For all of those in your tww, I hope this is our month! I hope we all get BFPs and we can all share our pregnancy journey together as we!!

Here's to Hoping! Babydust and love to all!

I went in for my beta this morning and I am waiting for the results. AF has not arrived, so I am hopeful. The last few months the I have been getting AF before 14dpo even while taking the crinone. I am taking more crinone, but hopefully it is a good sign that AF has not arrived. I'm nervous and I've been trying to stay off the message board. I'm trying to relax and not obsess.:)

Durban81 - that is a nice, big follie! Good luck! I'm sure we've all been there (I know I have) it's hard to be happy on the outside right away for someone else getting pg when you've been trying so long and are not. I'm sure your friend did not notice. Hopefully this is a playmate for your future LO.

Risa - great follies! that stinks about the bloodwork expiring, but bd'ing works for many people too.

MJinWaiting - The first time I took crinone, my bb's were killing me. They started hurting about 2 days after my iui so I know it was not pg-related, but I was also pg that month. They haven't hurt since. I released 2 or 3 follies the first time I took clomid. I have had injectable iui cycles where I probably only released 1 or 2. I over-respond to Follistim so I have had cycles where there was 1 big one and many others 2mm smaller than the big one. My RE will cancel the cycle if he thinks that more than 3 will be released so I coasted a few cycles so that the smaller ones would not catch up to the big one. So, I have probably released more follies during a clomid cycle than an injectables cycle; but I always produced many more follies during injectable cycles and I could have released more if my RE was not so careful about too many.

Cleto - For the ivf cycle I had many small follies. When they were being measured, most of them looked long and oval. I was concerned so I asked the u/s tech and she told me that they are sort of like water balloons - they are not rigid. If there are a lot of them in a small space they squish each other and some of them look more like ovals than circles.

kikkleh - great beta! When will you have an u/s?

lgayle04 - I think 2 follies of good size sound great.
