What is IUI...

Intrauterine Insemination

 

[charlie15]

Oh dear. Sorry this cycle has been so awful maxi. Maybe a fresh cycle, fresh start is for the best though now. Big hugs Hun

 

[maxxiandniko]

Cycle salvaged. Will start another type of Lupron Tuesday, wait for bleed and start stims again.

 

[Sunshine14]

Welcome soanxious, I have met you before in other threads I am sure. Sorry about all of your losses and the way you were treated by your GP was disgusting. Glad you are changing practices.

Maxi, hope things settle down with your schedule soon. How long do you have to inject for?

I have had an exciting morning in that I have found baby's heart beat. I am 9+5 today and now very but still not quite believing it. With my dd I never heard her HB until in the 2nd tri as I had an anterior placenta and then obviously last time there was no HB. So still pinching myself and will try again next week before I do it with oh. Don't want to get his hopes up an then no be able to find it!

Hope all other ladies are keeping well x

Wow Charlie!!!!! OMG sooo happy for you! I was wondering how u were doing & thinking about when u were due a scan -- that is such fantastic new -- now u can relax a little bit more and then when u get to 12 weeks and have ur official scan u can start to enjoy ur pregnancy -- fingers xd ur our second rainbow baba hun!! When is ur actual 12 week scan? So exciting I have everything crossed for u that things continue to go so well for u hun xx

Maxxi sorry to hear things didn't go to plan for the IVF - did u end up doing the IUI in the end hun?? Where are u at now hun? My friedn did IVF ealier this year and she showed me all the needles & stuff she had to inject and the programme is very serious so I completely understand that u got a bit confused with it all - she had her DH setting it all out for her & adding the powder & liquid to each other & then injecting her & that is the ony way she got through it so fair play to u for giving it ur best shot hun!! That big needle is massive as well so no wonder u got a big bruise!! Also was thinking even though the iVF got cancelled this month hun stay positive and keep in mind that all of those extra hormones flowing through ur body can only be a good thing for next months attempt if that is the way u r going to go??

Mgirl happy birthday to u hun for September - hope ur well hun and had a good celebration - I'm a bit more conscious of age now as I turned 43 a couple of weeks ago but I'm just staying focused on the fact that I only need one good egg - so best wishes to u babe.

2plus how are u doing sweetie? Did I read ealier that ur thinking about IUI? *HOw r things with u hun? Hope ur well xx

ClairCath how are u doing hun? What cd are u at now hun?

Fandabby if ur still checking in occasionally I hope ur well and Mistique is doing well?? & the feeding has gotten easier? - fair play to u for sticking it out as i know how painful it can be xx best wishes hun xx

Sorry if i have missed anyone xx

Soanxious welcome to the thread x not sure if u remember me but we had a few conversations about chemicals earlier in the year - was wondering how u were getting on? I have had 3 cp's in total now followed by a mmc with medical management at 9 weeks - so I did get that pg that u said about previosuly when I moved to London but ended in mmc boo, hoo. I'm still waiting, waiting, waiting for a rainbow baba!! How are things with u?

Anyways, afm -- cd 13 today and I just got a + tonight and dtd cd 9 & 11 but my honey has got flu now so not sure we did enough this month. Sorry haven't been around much recently but been crazy with my birthday, then my sister came from New Zealand (I hadn't seen her for 9 (!) years) then went away for the weekend to a friends 40th party and then my little fella was 8 so it has all been mental -- I was happy to get back to work just to get a break from it all!! Anyway to u all and stay healthy Charlie xx

Aww Sunshine I am ever so sorry that you have lost again

I have not managed to get pregnant again.. I lost 5 in 1 year.

I am currently doing the Clearblue trail testing for the new ov kit and sending my wee off so hoping that makes a difference but as we have been BD daily I just dont know what is wrong with no getting pregnant.. maybe its because I stopped the Q10?

How is Life in London, happier to have more people around? How are the children getting on?

My Granddaughter turned 1 last weekend.. she is so adorable, but it was a hard weekend as the day she was born I started to lose my baby and I mc it the following day.. so I have been on a roller coaster the past few weeks.. x

 

[charlie15]

Maxi, yey for moving onwards to a more positive cycle. That last one was not meant to be me thinks! This one I am sending tons of

Sunshine, thank you so much for your kind words and enthusiasm, I love it it is very reassuring hearing that galloping hb for sure. I have my scan on the 17th November, I will actually be 13 weeks then. Seems like so far away.

Sorry DH has flu, do you think there's no way he can manage another DTD? I guess depends if it's man flu or real flu that he has belated happy birthday to you too, did you do anything special? I will be turning 42 in a few weeks, yikes how did that happen?

Soanxious why did you decide to stop the CQ10? How about BDing alternate days to give OH's swimmers time to replenish??

How is everyone else doing, would be lovely to hear from you lovely ladies again x

 

[Soanxious]

Charlie I stopped taking them for financial reasons, they are £24 for 30 pills... but I have just started taking them again, with that price and the price of my B vitamins and pregnacare and omega 3 etc its costing me around £50 a month on rattling my tummy...

I will try to do it every other day... but its difficult, I just get an over the top worrying urge that it could be that time that is the right one for my egg...

I ended up part of the 1-1.5 % of women who ovulate on Lupron. I ovulated either Saturday or Sunday. I am going to start a different type of Lupron Tuesday, wait for a bleed which should happen late next week ) actually a period since I ovulated) and will start the stims all over again.

 

[Sunshine14]

Good luck Maxxi hope this month it works for you and we will all be routing for you hun xx do you have to take the Lupron and then have a bleed?? and then start the stims again hun?

Charlie 17th November that is only 2 weeks away really - you are almost there and just have to stay really positive now babe - you have found the hb and that is a major thing and then when you get 12 weeks the chance of mc plummets drastically so there is no reason why you won't be holding your rainbow baba in your arms and be our second rainbow!! No pressure darling but you have to do it for the team lol to give us all some hope - we need that second rainbow hun xxxx stay postive and 17th will be here before you know it xx

Soanxious I really agree with Charlie -- dtd every second day is supposed to help recharge the sperm numbers so you could be finding that doing it every day is reducing the totals and that is why you aren't gettign pregnant xx can you try to ease off a bit and see if it makes a difference? I had a friend who was DTD everyday with her hubby and he actually stopped producing sperm because it was too much for him phyisically & once they eased off the bd she got pregnant with her second child ..... just a thought anyways xx

Charlie have to say I laughed when I read ur post as after posting that last message I had actually cornered my honey & managed to get a BD in - I just knew my chances would be higher this month with that one extra one so in 2ww now and will see what happens - have sore throat coming on now so feeling a bit under the weather! I actually spent today holding a belated brithday party for my little fella who was 8 and can safely say have had enough of parties and organising stuff & just want to chill now! Anyway ladies take care all and babydist to you all xxx

Yes. On Tuesday I start injecting with the old school Lupron and then wait for a blee/period. It would technically be my period so because I ovulated. My guess is that I'll get my period anywhere from this Thursday through Sunday. I call in with Day 1 and then scan on day 2 and start the whole stupid thing over if the scan is ok.

 

[Soanxious]

Im finding myself and others that are poorly around ttc time stand a better chance of getting a BFP, as our bodies are already busy fighting off infections so there are less of us fighting off the and more get pregnant.. so I think I will book myself in for a week of colds and bad chest just to get a bfp

And I feel physically fine. Crap.

 

[maxxiandniko]

Starting Lupron tonight. I'm more anxious this time around. Hope I bleed soon but no sign of that yet

 

[Soanxious]

I jinxed myself.. I have a bad cold LOL

 

[Sunshine14]

I think u must have jinxed me too soanxious as I have a rotten cold now that my lovely honey gave me - feeling all shivery & no energy - yuk! No sign of bfp though at 9dpo!!

Maxxi good luck hun -- have everything crossed for u this cycle babe & hope u manage to inject ok xxxx

 

[Soanxious]

Well I wasnt expecting to ov so early.. but looks like I have with a positive opk and my chart. and im getting slightly better, I ended up with a sinus infection that went straight to my chest so now im on an inhaler. meh!

Lets hope we get bfp's

I dont get signs of a bfp will around 10/11dpo.. Fingers Crossed

 

[maxxiandniko]

Except for a slight sore throat and watery, itchy eyes I'm fine but I can't be pregnant anyway. Well it's almost a week on the Lupron and no period. I would have expected my period this weekend as I ovulated over a weekend but nothing, no signs of it either. I'm feeling pretty down about this cycle. Feeling down about the whole thing really. I know that 4 years ago is a long time but things just weren't as hard as they are now. It really is like my body wants to shut down and I'm fighting it. Anyway. I'm groin to call my favorite nurse and ask her up to how long Lupron can delay your period.

 

[2plus1more]

Hi ladies! Maaxi, any sign of your period? I hope this cycle works for you.

I had my appointment with the FS today. I'm trying to stay encouraged. We're doing the antral follicle count, AMH blood test, an HSG, and an IUI in December. Just before the holidays. I already want to poke my eyes out!!! Only reason I'm starting right away is to get a treatment in before the new year/restart of health insurance. He said we can do at least 4 IUIs with a 10% chance of pregnancy for each cycle. I am relieved to say that I like this physician and that the office is very helpful and organized. Makes it easier to digest everything.

Baby dust to everyone!!!

That sounds very exciting. I'm not having a good time of it. No period yet and my dr wants to see me on Friday unless I get my period. I'm really worried she's going to tell me it's time to stop. I have no basis for saying that except that things keep going wrong.

 

[2plus1more]

Try not to stress about your period. I'm sure they deal with that all the time and they'll know best how to get you started again.
