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

[felsha]

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.

Well, today I just woke up & realized it is day 27 for me ( miscounted by a day earlier).  Still not trying to get my hopes up, by w/out treatments, my cycle runs 25-27 days, rarely ever longer.  I haven't noticed any pre menstraul spotting yet.  I was actually going to test today, but decided against it.  I really can't bear another BFN.  I think I will definately test tomorrow or maybe later on tonight if still nothing.  I have had sore BBs, but I actually think they only dissapear when AF comes.  Anyways, dani, that was a beautiful verse, & I truelly do know all of our times our coming, (hopefully soon)!  I'll keep you posted as soon as I test or AF starts, preferably with my first BFP~Felecia

I'm sorry I didn't see your post earlier.  Whatever you decide we're here to support you.  When I had 3 follicles last cycle I worried about what would happen if they all took, and it was scary.  My husband and I decided that if the Lord was willing to give them to us we were willing to take them.  Sadly that wasn't His plan last month. I remember that feeling of excitement and terror all rolled into one.

It seems as if everyday someone else I know finds out they’re pregnant.  In my school alone we have 12 pregnant teachers.  Well, make that 10-2 just had their babies.  I'm happy for them, but at the same time scared and worried.  Often times I just feel inferior.  On Tuesday a coworker placed a card in my box with this verse. I share it with you because it lifted my sprits when I desperately needed it.  

Jer 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

I hope I have not offended anyone on this board by posting the verse.  I've never been one to share my faith or quote the bible, but having lost my baby and struggling with infertility has made me try to find some meaning in all of it.  The card I received was a like a warm blanket that wrapped me and held me that day.  I hope it offers some comfort.  I believe that once one of us gets pregnant there will be a domino effect.  

Ladies, this is our year!

I agree with Felecia and would go for it.  I know just from my previous IUI I had 5-7 good sized follies and nothing happened.  I think that if it was me that I would go for it in hopes of becoming pregnant.  I will keep my fingers crossed for you!!!!

I had my CD10 u/s and blood work today.  On the left ovary I had 2 follies at 10mm and 11mm and on the right I had one 10mm.  There were of course several under 10mm.  My estradiol level dropped a little.  I was bummed, but the same thing happened last time and when I went back for my CD13 u/s I had the 5-7 good ones so I am hoping this happens again for this month.  He increased my dose to 150iu follistim so we will see!

Hey Angel, if it we me personally, I would take the risk.  I know sometimes that even if you do have all those follicles, they might not even contain an egg (to be released).  I have seen so many times, that women on these forums will cancel. Some that choose to continue, usually only have 1 viable preg or 2.  I think it would be a blessing no matter how many you have.  Good Luck & keep us posted.  I'll be thinking & praying for you!

ladies,
I have a very hard decision to make and it is tearing me apart.  Today my doc informed me that if I conceive this month there is a large possibility of 3 or more babies.  he asked how I felt about selective reduction or stopping for this cycle.  I am so confused, I can't believe the difference a few iu's make.  Last cycle i started so slow , i only had one follicle at the time of the iui, now i have over 7. (2 on my left and 5 on my right).  they are all between 15-17 mm so he is sure that they will be releasing and that they will be the right size by tonight.  I am supposed to take the trigger at 6 but I am so scared..... I know it is kind of hard to advise in situations such as this but i can't think straight so any words of wisdom will do...

Well, I have 3 days to go until either AF shows or not.  I have been soo worried (it just never gets any easier)!  I keep hoping & praying that it will work since this was a natural cycle, before I go see my new ob/gyn.  I am trying not to think about it.  I don't think I will test until at least the day of or after.  I have been having ocassional cramping for the past 2 days now.  Wish me luck!
