My first appointment is Thursday with fertility dr. From all the research I can find, and the opinion of my ob/gyn...and dh's urologist...It looks like IVF will be our best option now. I know that we've only tried iui twice, but the past two times...everything looked great on my end, but we just struggle so much with dh's sperm count. One month it was 3 million and then 5 million....the motility isn't good and his uro says that men that have this issue very rarely succeed with iui:( But I'm anxious to hear what re says to do. We are absolutely obsessed with having at least one child of our own...We aren't against adoption, but just want so badly to have one on our own.... Please keep me posted on what you do next...

Hi!  I am new to this.  We had our first IUI last week.  I am 7 days post.  I had my prog. test today and it was above 40, hopefully this is good.  I really don't feel very educated on all of this.  I go in next Frid for my beta.  I took gonal f and ovidrel, they had me do another ovidrel shot today, so i don't think i can take a hpt without getting a false pos.  I hope all goes well for all of you girls, and i am excited i found somewhere where I can communicate with others going through similar things.  My family and friends all get pregnant if they blink and it makes it hard to talk to them.  

Also, happy early b-day andria, i share the same b-day as you!

Ok so my re called me this morning and said he doesn't think I need to do the lupron & gonal-f...he also doesn't want me to take the month off. He said he is confident that another round of 100mg of clomid and maybe 150iu of gonal f will do the trick! If not then he'll just up the dosage of gonal-f until we get it right! So my baseline apt is on thur.. And I can start the clomid that night (cd4) I soooo happy that I don't have to waist this month away!!!! I just might get a great bday present after all (sept 19)

How is everyone??

Oh how exciting..... I wanna go!!! LOL But yes I understand every word you said! This ttc thing is just too crazy & stressful...more than I ever imagined!! But I keep telling myself how much it will be worth it in the end!

So are you thinking of looking into another RE?? You are wanting to do another round of IUI right? Does your INS cover the iui? If I had your INS I'd definately take advantage of the accupuncture..I hear so much good things about it! It can't hurt to try right? But I know my INS (tricare) would never pay for that! Heck it won't even pay for the iui..it does thankfully cover my meds & all tests, so I am thankful for that!

Oh yea and what kind of skin reaction did you have?

You never know!!!!  & yeah it must be the meds!  I have had one strange 2 weeks+!  break-outs, weird skin reactions, & then the usual pg symptoms!
Part of me wants to AF to come like NOW, then part of me wants to not start for a few more days so I can get my eggy's (AKA ducks) all in order!
I went online on healthnet (my ins) & saw that I have 2-3 RE's under my group :)  & acupuncturist too..... double :))
My time really is running out.........we have a big summer holiday planned for next summer.....we will be going to Tuscany Italy, about 40 min. outside the city of Florence:)
for 4 weeks, in a beautiful Villa ( kinda booked it after my mc, I was so sad) & I was REALLY hoping we would have a 8-12 week old w/us!  I can push our dates back a few weeks, but this is not working out as I planned :<!!!!  
The thing is, life has to go on beyond crazy ttc!  I/we can't put our lives on hold forever, but on the other side I feel like I need to do everything within reason to make this happen.  It's so hard, so physically, emotionally & financially consuming.......

But I'm gonna chart this month and pray for a miracle!!

But anyways, to answer your question yes my boobs still feel funny! And I didn't get any af cramps until about an hour before af...which is totally weird for me?? Maybe it's the meds??
