39 and trying to conceive:-(

[trying4four]

Well. He agreed.
They got 3 eggs retrieved. They said they are very good size.
Today they do ICSI and tomorrow they call to tell me if any of them fertilized.
I hope they fertilize.
He flew home for work and I am alone in hotel.

You're not alone...we're here for you!!

 

[trying4four]

Retrieval is done.
They got 3 good sized eggs.
ICSI today and tomorrow we see if they fertilized.

2 out of the 3 eggs fertilized. I couldn't ask for more. This is wonderful.
I can't believe that there's parts of mine and his body mingling together while we are so many miles apart. Life is so weird.
I imagine our DNA as a couple getting to know each other under a shady tree having a picnic on a summer day laughing and kissing and drinking white wine.
But then again I am kind of crazy.

 

[trying4four]

Yay!! Congrats on the two
Are you going to transfer both?

 

[Bonnie1990]

A romantic way to think about it!
When is the transfer?

 

[PositiveUs]

When you are going to transfer everything they don't bother to wait until day 3 or day 5 or grade them, they just get them back in you as soon as they can, so we will transfer both tomorrow (if they both survive -I can't assume anything- but still staying positive), which will be a day 2 transfer.

Looks like we are doing our third IUI on June 10. I hope the saying is true that the 3rd times a charm.

PositiveUS - How did the transfer go? Very exciting.

I'm just waiting around I didn't take any clomid or anything this month so who knows how long my cycle will be this time. The good news is that I've had lots of EWCM this time and that's usually about 4 or 5 days ahead of O, so I'll just keep going along and using my OPKs and BD as much as we can

 

[Bonnie1990]

Yes how was the transfer?

Me-I am either a day off on my cycle or ov late. Just now finally got an almost pos OPK. They have been so faint I was afraid I want going to ov!
We have been bd right along though!

Trying-we will be close again this month!

 

[trying4four]

I've had completely negative OPKs so far. No second line at all. They look like my pregnancy tests
I'm following the TCOYF rule of trying to BD on everyday that I have EW or slippery fluid. My temp is still low so at least I haven't missed anything.
Still going to use the OPKs though. So...officially still waiting for O

 

[trying4four]

Well that was quick...just took my daily OPK and it's positive. So we'll be BDing until my temp goes up. Fingers crossed!!

its a thread of us who were oving around valentines. we have had one drop off and 2 bfp's and 2 of us still waiting

The transfer went well. The clinic offered a free acupuncture right after the transfer and I also got one right before transfer and paid for it. I was going to get both anyway but it's nice they paid for one. The one before is for the cervix (idk. maybe to relax the cervix so the catheter goes in?) and the one after is to stop uterine contractions which is also what the 5mg valium was supposed to do.
I am now 5dpet. No real symptoms that progesterone and estrogen supplements couldn't explain. Took 3 pg tests to see when the hcg shot leaves my system and it is just about gone. Had temp dip today but I am not trying to read too much into that.
Good luck to everyone and all the BDing going on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone thought about getting a post coital test? I wish I would have.
