3 failed IUIs. How do you cope?

[Maverick007]

What a bummer. I hope you just get lucky w/ this IUI Chris! Keep us posted on how things go.

Sorry to hear that Chris...I also didn't know they check progesterone levels. Soo many things we dont' realize before we start this journey. SOOO FRUSTRATING! Fingers crossed this is the IUI that takes.

Hows everyone else doing?? Strawberry when do you test?

 

[Maverick007]

Strawberry, just wondering the same...I think you said Oct. 1 is official test day? Which is tomorrow! How are you feeling now that some time has passed?

Chris let us know how it goes today... Hope you're feeling better, and really hoping and praying the new ivf protocol for next month is exactly what it takes for you.

I have my beta tomorrow... I was feeling hopeful at the end of last week as I had sore inflated bbs and some cramping that felt different from AF. But over the weekend the bbs deflated and I feel 100% normal, nothing different at all. Haven't tested yet, but will probably take one tonight or tomorrow morning so I don't have to hear it from the nurse while I'm at work. Feeling very emotional today but trying to hold out some hope.

Everything crossed for you girl!

*****hand squeeeeeeeze****** The wait is soooo tough I know. I had my symptoms disappear and then they reappeared again ever so slightly when I was 12 or 13 days past transfer. They still come and go all the time. It's definitely no reason to count yourself out. I'm very hopeful for you. Good luck.

Thanks guys I will keep you posted...

Thank you ladies. I had no idea that these things can happen either! I had my iui this morning and it was so extremely painful that I cried. My insides are so swollen I guess from the IVF medications. I am still in pain and going to acupuncture tonight hoping it helps some. As for what happened with my IVF cycle the nurse old me today that it's not too common but def does happen to people. Of course I get it! Anyway, my body pretty much ignored the ganerilex that prevents you from ovulating and so I have an appointment with the RE to discuss my next protocol which will be lupron.

Strawberry- I agree I would def test before the beta and I am hoping and praying for you my love

 

[Sunshine24]

[PinkPeony]

Yayayayayayayay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a good feeling for you! Congratulations!

 

[Nicedips]

Woohoooo! congratulations sooo happy for you

 

[Strawberry13]

Thank you so much guys. But I think I may have bad news... I'm so confused. This morning I took a digi, didn't have to pee too much bc I went in the middle of the night, and it was negative! I think it might be a chemical. I'm so bummed. What do you guys think? Getting my beta now...

 

[StayHopeful]

Don't freak out yet, Strawberry. The FRER tests are really sensitive and can detect hcg levels as low as 12, whereas most digis don't detect anything below 50. So it may just be that your level isn't quite to digi level yet. Good luck with your beta and keep us posted! That should give you some answers.

 

[Maverick007]

Yes, what Stay Hopeful said...home tests are nowhere near as reliable as a blood test so the blood test will tell you what's going on.

 

[PinkPeony]

Agreed! Those digi's are notorious for not picking up early bfp's while FRER's are the best. That's a nice line on the FRER. I'm sure you'll have a positive beta.
