3 days post iui, would like anyone also during this 2ww

Okay, so I feel like I am going to go CRAZY during this aweful 2ww.  Why is it that life seems to be going by soo quick any other time, except for now of coarse?!? LOL!  Maybe b/c this is my first real chance in 4 yrs to have a pos. hpt, but I feel I am definately getting antsy.  I would ask if anyone has any symptoms, (I'm pushing it I know).  I don't, but it would be great to have someone else to talk to.

Welcome!!!  I have had 2 IUI's now.  I use the Ovidrel trigger injection prior to the IUI and have found that it makes me pretty bloated and constipated.  If you used that injection as well it may be the side effects from that injection.  Are you taking the Progesterone suppositories?  If you have to take them, you will find that between the trigger injection and them that your bbs may be sore as I have had that with both IUI's.  I am only 1 day ahead of you as I am 4dpiui.  

Good luck!

It is good to hear from you.  I too have had some weight gain from the Follistim and it is driving me crazy.  I am hoping that by eating lots of fruits and veggies that it will help take away some of the excess weight -- it may be wishful thinking!?!?

I am sure that it is hard seeing everyone at work get pregnant.  I know that seeing my friends and cousins all get pregnant has been overwhelming for me at times.  Hang in there!

We have decided to take this cycle off.  I've been struggling with depression and weight gain since my miscarriage in June.  It doesn't help that there is a baby boom at the school where I teach.  I think we're up to 12 pregnant ladies now.  I am, however, now taking medication and I am doing much better.  We may take next cycle off and start fresh in March (unless I get a BFP in the meantime).  

1faith1- I am thinking of you.  I have prayers said and fingers crossed!  

babyhopes81- Welcome & good luck.  This board is a lifeline!

I had my 2nd IUI yesterday and am crossing my fingers :)  Again DH's motility and morphology were good -- we get concerned about this as in the past he had problems with them being a little low.  Maybe the Zinc he is taking is helping!  We BD'd last night and will be doing it again tonight and hopefully that will help as well.  I start taking the Progesterone suppositories tonight.  I can do HPT on 1/31 so we'll see!
