anyone starting the tww this week?
Looking for cycle buddies - Anyone starting the tww this week?
this is my 2nd iui TTC #2. I took Follistim CD3-9. I over-responded and had to coast the past few days while my RE monitored my b/w and follicles to see if the iui would be canceled. On Monday I had 16 measurable follies and the biggest 8 were all within 2 mm of each other. After coasting for a few days, it looks like I will release 2 maybe 3. Hopefully this is our lucky cycle! Me and my DH are blessed to have a beautiful baby boy and we would love to give him a baby brother or sister.

good to hear your spotting has stopped-its very scary and stressful and stress is not a good thing for you or bub.
and yes- i think there is one stubborn bub inside me! first time it wouldnt uncross its legs, then it had its back to us. i just pray that it cooperates for our 19 week scan!

My spotting seems to have stopped for now, so I am praying it stays that way and that things are going well in there. The nurse at my RE office was not very reassuring about the spotting, but I saw my acupuncturist yesterday and he was very reassuring and said it is quite common in early pg. My baby's heart should be forming right now, and if all goes well I will see a heartbeat at my appt Feb 7! Thanks for all the good thoughts and prayers.
docsaf - It is nice to hear that you also did not have many symptoms. It would be reassuring to have some. But you are right - there is always something to worry about. I will be kind of happy if I don't get bad morning sickness b/c I would prefer not to let anyone know at work for a few more months.
kikkleh - sounds like your baby is stubborn already! :) Hopefully you will find out at the appt in Feb!
Risa - I hope all goes well tomorrow! It all sounds good!
lgayle - Thinking of you. Hope your u/s on Fri shows good news.

well, had my ultrasound and the baby had its back to us so couldnt find out the sex. i have the 19 week big one booked for 25th feb so i should definitely find out then, just a long wait! this little thing just doesnt want me to find out yet!
docsaf- I had two big follies, both around 20 mm yesterday, will trigger Wed for IUI on Thursday! Feeling good about this cycle and my new office. Sounds like you and twins are doing well, how exciting.
BeeHappy76- Hope everything is fine, stay positive! Keeping you and baby in my prayers.
Igayle04 - Hope everything is fine with baby, saying a prayer for you.
Hope everyone else is doing well,
Risa

My computer is acting up and it is driving me nuts - sometimes posting and other times just spinning its wheels.
lgayle - I'm so sorry to hear you are going through this. I pray that everything will work out for you. When I had my 1st u/s at 6w my RE stressed before it was done that it was unlikely we would hear a h/b.
Risa - did you have your iui? How many follies?
Beehappy - Sorry to hear about the spotting. But I think it is pretty common. I have not spotted, but I did have a lot of mild cramping with this pg. The first time I was pg, the only symptoms I felt were very sore bb's (which started the day after I started the crinone so I think it was the meds) and very tired (but the whole process sometimes tired me out). I used to get upset that I did not "feel" more pg early on. This pg I am very tired, had cramping for about 2-3 wks, I was nauseous for about 5 weeks and I have a bigger belly now than I did when I was 20+w the first time around. I worried when I had no symptoms; I worried just as much/more when I had symptoms. I hope everything will be okay for you. When will you have your 1st u/s?
kikkleh - good luck with your u/s! Yes, the 3d u/s is really cool. I was amazed at how much detail you can see - hands, feet, mouth,nose, etc. I hope you find out today is you are having a little boy or girl. My DH is still trying to make up his mind if he wants to find out.

Hi ladies - The last few days have been stressful. I have been having spotting. Had another beta this morning and it looks like the #s are still doubling about every 36 hrs, so that is good. I just wish the spotting would stop! Praying everything will be ok...
