Welcome day33 -- I have found this group of women to be a great support during this time. I hope that this IUI will be the only one you need. I am currently 9dpiui on my 2nd iui -- so I know how the 2ww can take forever!
All -- Well, for some reason I broke down and did a HPT yesterday which would have been 8dpiui. It was BFN. I know that it was too early to test and didn't even want to but DH talked me into it -- mainly because I kept having GI upset and weird eating habits over the past week. I am thinking that it is just the stress, but HOPING that it will be because of a BFP by 1/31. I know you all know this stress and heartache, but this whole process gets to be tiring. I am keeping my head up and praying/hoping that I will get the BFP this month. Unfortunately I have had some cramping. So we'll see!
Take care all!
I wanted to say I also am a first grade teacher trying to get pregnant the last 3 years. This is our first iui and I never imagined how much you think about it and focus on every little feeling. I staed home from work the first 2 days since we are always on our feet at work. Hope everything works out for you.
I am sorry to hear that AF started. You must be frustrated. Hopefully all the testing that your doctor wants to do goes well I was actually talking to the nurse at my RE's office and we were talking about number of follicles and the total sperm count. The nurse told me that she has seen so many people with multiple follies and sperm counts over 100 million after the wash and they still do not get pregnant. It truly makes you realize it is such a miracle....of course I wish I had the luck that some people seem to have :) Hang in there and know that we are all thinking about you!

I woke up this morning with new pain around my abdominal and ovaries.. it feels like i have to pee every 20min.I have to pee during the night and when i go its such a relief but it feels a bit discomforting....
Driving me CRAZY!!!!
Morning All,
Well I hate to say it but my cycle started this morning and today is only day 12. I was spotting over the weekend so doc bought me in for beta...needless to say it was negative. I have to be honest, I knew i was not pregnant....I just felt it. I know my body so well and with all of the things I was feeling I new AF was around the corner. This month was diffrent in alot of ways, first the bloating, and when that ended I knew right away that i was not pregnant....my normal PMS started immediately. I am so confused and well concerned about exactly what could be keeping us from conceiving. My Dh has no fertility problems and my doc said that I have anovulation and that the hormone therapy is what I need. each cycle my levels were great (normal range for normal woman) follie count was good...I just don't know!!! We are going to take the next month or two off so that my doc can schedule me another dye test...eek! I don't want to waste another iui session if he feels that there may be something else hindering us from conceiving. my insurance only covers 6 cycles and we already had 2...so I'm being very cautious about the next steps. I will keep you guys posted...
Best of Luck to you all and thanks for support...welcome babyhopes81!
