My appt went well today. My follies seem to grow at the last minute. I have a three at 18 and two at 17 along with some at 16 and 15 then mutliple at 12, 10, and under 10. I do the trigger shot tonight and will then have my 2nd IUI on Friday. We are excited again!!! I took Thursday and Friday off this week and do not have to go back until next Tuesday. I can't wait for the time off. I have decided on Friday that I am going to just put myself on "couch" rest and take it easy. After my first IUI, DH and I went to lunch and did some shopping and this time I am not doing that.
Felecia -- I am excited that your appt is coming up soon. I just found out that the Gyne that I went to before going to the RE is no longer in the practice that I went to. I am bummed b/c he was so nice. He was very nice when we started out with him and the Clomid and then he referred me to the RE. Bummer! Hang in there and hopefully all works out well with the appt.
Hi guys!!!
This cycle is a little different. Since the iui, I've had bloating and pressure (annoying at times) that feels like a bad case of gas. My boobs are VERY sore and sensitive. I did not have these problems after my first cycle, but I didn't produce as many follies either. With everything going crazy here at work I have't really had time to focus on the possibility of being pregnant, I guess I should be greatful for the distraction..?
Janice--How was your appointment?
Thanks for the support Janice! I know one day it will happen. I just have to say, the only positive about AF coming is that it only lasted 24 hrs total. I don't really know if that is normal, I may spot a shade on day 3 or 4, but that's it. All well, can't complain! I am just looking forward to my appointment on the 23rd w/ my new OB/GYN so I can finally get this stupid hystero done.
How is everyone else doing? Cheers-Felecia
This whole process is extremely difficult. I have also never been pregnant and have never experienced the BFP. Just to know that I could become pregnant would be nice. I get so frustrated sometimes. I try to stay positive, but it can be so hard. I go for my next u/s and blood work tomorrow and hopefully the follies finally grew...who knows :) Know that we are always here for you during this time.
1faith1 -- how are you doing? I hope your hanging in there.
Dani414 -- how are you? Are you getting ready for another IUI soon?
I'm still hoping for a whole bunch of BFP's this year!!
Hey Janice, all- well AF did show when I was at work today which is a total bummer (plus I wasted a test)! I really appreciate all the support I get from you fellow ladies. This is already an extremely difficult process as you ALL know, (preaching to the choir there-lol), but talking with each of yous really makes it more bearable. I just have to say, everytime AF comes, it doesn't get any easier & I am truelly starting to think I will never see a BFP. It's not like I have gotten preggo & miscarried, I just can't seem to even get a BFP. Well, that was my moment of monthly breakdown. Tomorrows another day & will be the start of a better one. Felecia
I am so sorry that you got a BFN today. My thoughts are with you. I'll cross my fingers that in a couple of days it will be a BFP.
All -- I had my CD13 u/s today and had 2 follies on the left of 14mm and 15mm. My right had one at 10mm. I was kinda disappointed since last month I had more follies. My E2 level did increase today. I am supposed to do 2 more days of Follistim and go back on Wednesday for another u/s and blood work. If all is well that day, then I will do the trigger shot and still have an IUI on Thursday. I really hope the follies grow b/c taking these injections for nothing this month is just going to annoy me!
