Now,when i calculate the time diff.between shot and iui its not even 24 hrs..last time she did the same..so i am thinking of taking the shot tomm around 5 am :) ths way it will be approx.28hrs ... lol i know it sounds crazy:) but i wana try it my way this time:)
i have already prepared myself for ivf next cycle :) Crazy me:)
Ladies, I need prayers for my precious baby girl. She's having surgery (tubes inserted in both ears and adnoids removed). I'll post later to let you know how she's doing.
God Bless...
Jessime We will pray for her, its hard to go through something like surgery when they are little.
Pearl i don't blame you, as much as you are putting into it do what you feel is the best. I know thats what I would do too. Good Luck Sat. We are pretty much together this cycle I go to the RE today to see whats going on and see when I take the shot. No iui though. Good Luck!
Well as for me CD15 of my last clomid cycle..... off to the re to see whats a brewing and see when I take the HCG shot. Please pray that this is my month 6 months after my miscarriage and a dear friend of mine who was about a month ahead of me is getting ready to have her little bundle of joy and I am having a rough time. I will try to update my status if I can from my phone. I will be back Monday from a much needed vacation. Well off to the salon before I leave.
Snow blowers a blowing everyones way!
SSBD Hugs
Mandy
Have a wonderful vaccation:)enjoy
Jessime: Good luck you and the baby are in my prayers
mommyof2" Stay optimistic we will get there!
Agini: Thanks for the the well wishes I am only 3dpiui so I still have a long wait
All: Today I woke up and had mild cramping on my left side at only 3dpiui I should not feel anything at this pot right? bb's still sore from trigger...no bloating I feel great other than the cramping feeling.
Pearl : goodluck to u on saturday.tons & tons of baby dust to u too & sticky baby vibes.dont think about ivf or anything right now just think all the time that this time it will work.embys gonna stick good this time.just keep visualising poitive & goodthings.
agini/all: thanks for the info...IU have never had cramping 3 days after iui or any symptoms at all but maybe thats good seeing that I never had bfp from iui either....the cramps have subsided and I feel fine now...
This is my first IVF. I had 15 eggs, and 13 got fertilized with ICSI. Used 2 embryos for fresh cycle (which didnt work either) and 4 embryos were frozen. I've used 2 now, so have 2 more left. We will go for another frozen cycle soon.
My DH and I are so confused.. Our doctor said we had very good chances since I was 28 yrs old and the embryos were very good quality. My DH has very low sperm count but with ICS we got 13 eggs fertilized.
But I guess I just have to try again...I'm considering acupuncture since it seems to work for some. The highs and lows are just too frustrating and I dont know how much more I can take.
I got a message from the doctors office yesterday. They were able to freeze 4 out of the 7 remaining. The grades of the frozen are (2) 5AA and (2) 5BB. They are good quality from what the RE said so I am happy about that. I have 6 more days to go before I test.
toni81: Sorry to hear about your AF coming. Don't give up hope. Continue to move foward and have faith. I know you may not want to hear this, but they may not have been healthy so they aborted themselves, You are bound to get pregnant. The bad thing about IVF is that the RE can't really say that the embies chosen are gonna make it Sure they look good, but there is no testing of any kind that I know of that can assure the RE that those are the ones to transfer so they go by growth.
It is frustrating, but the end result, when we do get pregnant will be all worth it. I wanted to do acupuncture this time, but the time between the RE's office and the location was too far apart so I didn't go, I did take the advice of some of the members here on the forum, to soak my feet in warm water every night, wear socks after, eat pineapple for 5 days to help with the implantation. I am on day 4 today of eating my pineapples so I hope it works, You may want to try this next time also, Good Luck to you.
bfromthed: how r u? hope you are doing okay. Keep thinking positive. I am praying that this will be the one for you.
Agini: thanks for the advice. I have been trying to drink as many fluids as I can. When I am at work, I get so caught up in my work, that I forget to drink water or even eat lunch...this is bad....I have to discipline myself more. How are u and the baby? DId you get your u/s yet?
Good luck to everyone and lots of baby dust to all.
Pebbles
Pebbles: Thanks for the well wishes I am feeling okay no bloating I had cramping yesterday 3dpiui for about 30 minutes??? I still have sore bb's from trigger and thats it...good luck to you!
Pearl: Glad to know you are in the wait...it only takes one! Keep me posted with signs/symptoms as you go along...we are 4 days apart.
ALL: I have a ? yesterday I had mild cramping for about 30 minutes and then nothing that was 3dpiui...now my temp 2 days ago was 97.8... yesterday 97.7... and this morning 97.4???? I am only CD 21 and I ususally run 30-44 days between cycles... I don't know what to make of it? Any thoughts? Whats scary to me is usually I get chills and very cold days before af starts and today I am cold nose and feet....JESUS help me!please.........
Pearl: goodluck girl, tons & tons of sticky babyvibes on ur way.just think positive that this time it will work & as i suggest pebbles iam suggesting u also that -: i watched online so many documentry movies about pregnency,baby birth,baby's growth inside womb.that will help u to think postive & visualise about baby is sticking inside u,& u will have this goodfelling.try to watch those kinds of documentry movies.try on youtube .goodluck.i will pray to god that u all will get ur BFP's this month.
Bfromthed: dont worry too much about temp, r u checking same time everyday,b4 u check ur temp they say that u should be in bed atleast 4 hours ,if u got up form bed & then check temp it varys,even if time is different it varys.so dont think or worry too much,just leave it on god he will takecare of it.just relax & try to be happy.goodluck.
Toni: iam so sorry about ur AF.i know its so frustrating .but iam glad u r thinking to try again.& iam glad u r planing to do acupuncture b4 u do 2nd ivf thats great .thats what i did when my 1st ivf failed ,i start acu---then did 2nd ivf,& iam still doing acu----iam 9weeks pregnent rightnoe.so goodluck to u.
Shellbell: how r u my dear???whats going on with u???hope u r doing good.thinking of u all the time.
How are you doing?
Heather5 Just checking on you I hope all is well
Heather, Pearl, Agini, Pearl, bfromthed, Pebbles,/everyone,
I just took a pragnancy test, its a cheap $10 cvs brand and its a light positive the same test I did 3 days ago and it was a negative....I just did it and didnt expect to see any line bec I have been peeing all day and there was barely any pee So i figure it will be negative its light but there is a line....WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK????? I AM SO SCARED!!!!!
It's another work day for me tomorrow so hopefully I won't have to think about it too much.
Good luck and keep me posted on your beta.
Have a nice evening.
As for me, I don't think this is my month either... DH and I only BD on CD 12 and 13. We're supposed to BD CD 12-16 every other day. DH decided to tell me that he believes it will happen when God wants it to happen so I've decided to not take meds next month. Sad thing is, I've been on fertility drugs since Jan and now he decides to give me this information! I'm so upset I don't know what to do. I told him did he forget that my endometriosis is getting so bad that I might have to have a hyst.? He said that he forgot about that... I also told him that I need him to be more affectionate and understanding. Everyone, please pray for me and my family.
My baby girl isn't doing too good. She's been running fever off and on all day. I'll probably have to take off tomorrow to be with her.
God Bless you ladies and have a wonderful week.
Jess
I can imagine how anxious you must be right now,to take another hpt in the morning!
I am so praying it's your little bean saying hello for the first time...!
Good Luck.
Send me news:)
Today i feel okay had some mild crams this morning but nothing now...bbs are not as tender temp up to 97.9??? Had progestrone drawn today wont get results bk until tomorrow afternoon (hospital lab is slow unless its stat) I will keep you guys posted I am 6dpiui #7 and getting anxious already! My mind is praying that this one will work but Im not feeling much body wise...I know i HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO STILL.
Very sore bbs tho. Ouch!
The soonest I can get to the store is Tues afternoon. So if no AF will test Wed morning. :) 16dpo. I have pretty good willpower and frankly I hate to see the BFN so like many I am hesitant to test.
Shellbelle!!!!!!!! Wow thats great news. I am so glad that you got a line that must mean something good since there was no HCG in your system three days ago. Keep me posted I am so hoping that its your month you deserve it girl!!!!! I will be praying for you!!!

Ahhhh 12 more days of waiting....I hope its BFP ths time..
Good luck everyone...
I love reading the success stories!
I am so sorry guys but I chickened out and didnt do the digital this morning, I am scared it might not show up bec I heard First response is the best one and I have a clearblue, I read that you need alot of hcg in your system to get a positive on the digital ones, not sure how true that is, I am afraid i will see a negative, I cry and cry last night when i saw that fain line....my heart will sink to the bottom if I see a negative...I kept looking at the faint positive all the time.... GOOD LUCK TO ALL YOU GUYS, WILL KEEP PRAYING FOR EVERONE !!!!!
Pearl, I had cramping before with iui, its normal bec of the procedure you sometimes can get cramping afterwards, so you will be ok....ont time i got it for 3 days straight... good luck and god bless you and hope this is it for you.
Bfromthed, any news on the prog, good luck I pray that this will be your month....
mgs1969, did u do an hpt? starting yesterday I was so crampy i never get cramp like this before AF, so i figure something was up, and I feel alot of burning sensation going on in my lower abdomen....and i am very bloated and do feel some in and out pulling on my belly button...GOOD LUCK TO BOTH OF ON OUR BETA TOMORROW.
Everyone: Thanks for asking about me. I'm doing fine. Still no major symptoms, but the sonogram last week did make me feel a little better ;-) I have my next appointment Friday of next week, so a whole week and a half to go! I wish I could just snap my fingers and be there already. Seems like the waiting game doesn't stop after the 2WW after all ;-)
Sorry I've been MIA for a few days, by the way, I'll be reading through the rest of the posts a little later today, and hopefully update the list, too, unless work gets too crazy!
SSBD, everyone!!!
Heather
So sorry youre not doing good, talk to your Dr and let them advise you on what to do, please dont stress and take it easy, keep praying and God will answer our prayers....sending you a big bear hug!!!!!
Pebbles, I know how the 2ww can be, but I have been trying to keep busy at work and around the hosue so its was easy for me and I have been watching a lot of movies, its does keep your mind away!!!! good luck and I hope and pray you get that BFP!!!!
Heather, thank you so mush, glad to hear you are doing ok, will keep you posted tomorrow you were right the crampyness started yesterday (7dpt)...i kow we are all different but its funny how the cramps started exactly like yours. I gotta tell you I am in denial and I will believe this until I see something on the sonogram!!!!
ALL: I had a screening today and back on the IUI wagon. All looks good. Got a couple of follicles cooking on each side. No cysts. Already started my Clomid, 25 mg CD 3-7. I go back on Saturday morning, C/D 10 for US/E2 check. Will keep you all posted. I am hoping this cycle will do the trick, so I don't have to go the IVF route. Keeping all of us in my prayers. Please send some prayers back! Greetings, SSBD, and sticky vibes. I miss everyone's banter.
Heather5: Glad to hear you're doing ok.
Heather5 glad to see your back...take your time reading there are lots...I am now 6dpiui had cramping yesterday and nothing today even my bbs are not as sore...

thanks so much for the encouragement. just been relaxing the past few days, and now looking ahead to trying again.
need your help guys, we are trying to decide whether to do our next FET right away or to keep a month's gap between cycles. do you think there's anything wrong with doing it back to back? or its better to wait?
shellbell - how did your blood test go? good luck to you dear!
