What does bfp mean? Dh is dad/husband right? I'm still new with the abrevations. After 3 yrs of trying sand surgery we go pregnant with our first. I lost it 3 months in with no warning. Everything was going great. After 4 more month of trying I gave in and did an iui. Now I m on here, Because I needed to know this is ok and some what normal. I need to be with women like my self. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I am new to the site but have read many posts.  This is my second attempt at IUI and now I am 6dpiui and have mild cramping on both sides and no sore bbs.  From what I gather, it sounds like this is from the HCG? My dr. is supposed to be good but the clinic doesn't seem to give me much information.   I get to test on the 4th and am hoping for the best.  Glad that this site is available.  By the way, you can tell I am new but does RE stand for Reproductive Endocrinologist? Sorry, trying to still figure this out. :)

Welcome to the forum! You're right AF is your period and stands for Aunt Flow. By the way, this thread has been inactive for a while now (since March), so if you want, you can join one of the newer threads ;-) I have one going called "Cycle buddies". We'd love to have you join us!

Best of luck this cycle!

Hi. I'm new here... trying to figure out how to survive the 2ww... DH and I have been ttc for a bit more than 3 yrs now... but this is our first IUI... tried the old fashioned way for a year and a half and then varicocele surgery...
IUI was fri and I'm already losing my mind. I know there's no real chance of it working (natural cycle) but that doesn't really help...
trying to keep busy but that's not helping either... can't believe its only day 4piui...

nevaeh222, Heather5 - Sorry for your AF. Get ready for the next try...dont let the AF bother you..it will happen some day soon...beleive in it.

SamLB - Yep, I was glad to hear that nothing suspicious came out of the sonohysterogram, even though I had a hysteroscopy 6 months back and everything was fine then; so was expecting the same. But definitely releived to get re-assured.
I guess I will call our new thread "2WW Buddies lwill get lucky (#1)"...what say??...it's positive message I think and it rymes. And then we will keep incrementing the number.
I am on CD7...on Femara

OK then girls....lets switch our thread to "2WW Buddies will get Lucky (#1)"...see u there.!!!!

Fab news to hear that there's nothing wrong anywhere - I'm really happy for you - you must be relieved (nice bit of news to make easter even better!)...
let us know when you start the new thread (yes, it's somethng like 250!) - why not give it a different name to find it even more quickly (as there are other "2WW" threads going on at the same time) - so that we all stay together (I know there is a "2WW thread#6" going on already which is what ours would be unless we change the name....what do you reckon?
You must be nearing O time soon (or is it too early? I d0n't know what your cycle is like)...do you use a OPK?
Anyway - catch up with you soon...have a very happy Easter.

well I am back from my vacation and San Diego's sunny weather didn't do much for a BFP..I started cramping on my flight back to Green Bay and lovely AF welcomed me home. I talked to my fertility nurse and she said that my doctor is off next week so we can't start the injectibles this cycle which means I have to wait another freaking month to start them...sooooo irate about this since I was already off the clomid and meds this month. So I won't even be in the running until May...it sucks.
Good luck to all you ladies.

SamLB - Added you to the list. Welcome :)

All - The thread is really getting too long...I think we have more than 250 messages on it, so am planning to start a new thread this weekend (as also suggested by SamLB ... we seem to have thought the same think at the same time :) ). I will keep you posted before I do that.

BTW, I got my sonohysterogram done this morning. No fibroids, leasions, polyps...uterus is of normal anatomy...which means spotting before periods is OK for me, it just hormones acting up. Doc says I am good :)

Yes , I guess you have experienced the same thing....4 people from my work just had babies too......I am happy for them but also it makes it harder...I am trying to learn how to deal with it and have no negative feelings...

Im just going to wait for beta next Thursday...
My sis in law didn't have any symptoms, so I guess if I don't, then it is not the end of the world yet :)

sarah9010 - hi there - I'm just one day behind you, having had my (3rd) IUI this morning (on Good Friday..hhhmmmmm!!). how many have you had or was it your first? have you been on meds? and are you taking prometrium now? look forward to tracking your progress! and...fingers crossed!

shandris - :( so sorry to hear about your BFN...don't forget we're here for you and know how distraught you are - unfortunately all of us have been through the very same heartache so know what you're going through.


Anya - I know, when someone so close to you (even though you love them to bits) is about to 'drop', it makes it EVEN harder than it already is for all of us ttc and having all our various problems... Over the past 5 months, 4 good friends plus sister-in-law have all had babies. it really is difficult, I know . I really feel for you. I don't know if I would test or not - I'd be in 2 minds about it too (and I'd be going crazy too, don't worry!). why not wait til 11 or 12 dpIUI to be sure that your hcg is out of your system...?? I'm praying for you!

G_S - hope you're doing well. So, I had my IUI this morning (no pain this time fortunately, unlike last time) - I guess that means I'm back on the list tomorrow (today is obviously only 0 dpIUI)... did you read my message about maybe starting a new thread as this one has got so long?! I'll leave it in your hands - you're doing SUCH a grand job (...that it makes me wonder what your job is!) keeping us all and the thread up to date..

In case anyone is away for the Easter break and isn't going to be connecting, then HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL...catch up with you soon....don't forget that easter is about eggs, rebirth etc, so let's all keep positive! Hugs to you all ;)

ok finally 1dpiui. 13days to go. I was having this funny cramping for about 2days befor iui. Im thinking it was because i had this huge 28mm follie that was literaly smooshing a 18mm follie. I had my iui yesterday morning and by night time my cramping was going away. Im just guessing thats what it was but how are you  ladys doing today any symptoms or anything???

Thank you Sam again for your support!!

Iam pretty much loosing hope cuz of no symptoms but what ta hell, if not, I just have to start over.....
my sis in law is having a baby any day and she is younger then me.....what a pain for me just to know that it is so hard to get pregnant :(

Thanks anyway and pray for me!

Sarah9010 Welcome and WOW 28mm!

Dippys Congrats on your Beta! Sorry I don't know about predicting twins, but I do think your numbers look great!

I got my beta test results. Nurse said beta is 270 and progesterone is 65. They want me to get 2 more tests done in the next 4 days to confirm that the numbers doubled.

Does anybody know if we can predict twins with these numbers? I had 2 mature follies, hence wondering.
