8dpiui My First IUI!!!

[Sandra B]

Hi... I had my first IUI 2/06/12. I took 100mg clomid cd 3-7 and took a trigger shot (Ovidrell 250) 2/04/12. I had at least 5 mature follies and my dh'a sperm count after the wash was 13 million. I was so crampy and bloated the day of my iui and stayed that way for a week. I tested my trigger shot out (atleast I thought so) 2/12/12 but yesterday morning and this morning I got two faint positives... I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

 

[babydrms]

Well, it could mean the trigger plus the low levels of a developing pregnancy are now equal enough for a line. I am actually surprised they inseminated with so many follies!

I also triggered with ovidrell 500 on 2/3 (for IVF) and tested mine out of my system around the 11th...haven't tested yet, but thinking maybe friday...

You may just have high levels of HCG from multiples and that is why you are getting such early results.

Good Luck Fx'd and look forward to your update!

So you tested out your ovidrell 500 which is like 10000 units of hcg in about 7 days? That's pretty fast and makes me hopeful I hope what I'm picking up isn't my stupid trigger lol. I don't wanna see another friggin BFN there should be a certain limit a girl hasta see! I really don't mind multiples at all... I sure hope you're right! I bet you are so anxious to test... I couldn't wait till Friday I have no self control when it comes to peeing on a stick Haha. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Keep me updated!

Thank you Honeycheeks depending on the type of day I'm having I either say "It gets harder every month" or "It gets easier every month" I think after awhile you cry a day when af shows then you suck it up and start your new cycle hoping this month is it. I'm so happy I found this site. Its nice to know I'm not the only one dealing with this

So my hpt from this morning is super faint again. I'm now11 days past trigger and 9dpiui. Any one have a faint positive 11 days after trigger and ended up preggers?

As far as my hcg testing out already - I am also using the internet cheap strips, I wasn't going to waste the $$ on a FRER. It didn't seem fast to have the Ovidrell out of my system...the ladies on assisted conception forum always say about 6-8 days. I was also drinking literally gallons a day trying to stave off hyperstimulation, I was definitely walking the line, lol.

Anyways, I did order three FRER from amazon and they are already here and I am sooooo tempted to pee on one! The good thing is I can't do it without DH here and since I want it to be first urine of the day...

As far as the line still being faint, one of the other ladies posted all of hers and they didn't get dark until closer to 14 days...hope that helps!! FX'd!!

 

[Sandra B]

I'm pretty sure its 1000 units of hcg you lose a day with the ovidrell... if I'm right you did do it fast. I wonder if all that water helped to get it out of your system faster? If I haveta do another iui here in a couple weeks I'll def be drinking lots more water lol!

I can't believe your holding three FRER in your hands and not peeing on them lol I use wondfo test strips and they have been right for two years so far. Plus ya can't beat the price especially when you use them as much as me! Please let me know as soon as you take your test!

 

[babydrms]

That sounds reasonable as far as the decline in Hcg. Then again, I am finding not many people use two syringes of Ovidrell either, lol. So weird how every doc is different. I was drinking gatorade, coconut water and Ensure protein shakes...plain water doesn't help OHSS, but since my levels were so high and belly was so bloated I wasn't taking any chances.

The wondo is what I use as well. Lol, exactly, love the price and the fact that I could order 25 at a time!! As far as the FRER, I just want to believe for a little longer...usually I POAS like crazy but I just don't want to admit defeat...feeling like a downer today. My bb's aren't as tender and my belly isn't as bloated, which usually is a BFN.

 

[Sandra B]

I think its funny how we stress over every "maybe" symptom. I am still bloated from my iui. It felt like I could feel every egg being ovulated on my way to our endo specialist which is a 4 hour drive for us to Cincinnati. So it was an unpleasant trip lol. I was so gassy and sore till sat lol. So I feel like all my symptoms are gone except my sore boobs and frequent trips to the restroom. Hang in there tho you only have a few days

 

[babydrms]

Well the symptoms are all relative. The bloating from my ovaries being 9 cm each usually gets worse before it gets better if you are PG...and my belly was looking 4-5 months preggo for the past couple weeks. It was HUGE! Then on top of it I am on estrogen and progesterone so my bb's have been sore for while, even before the transfer - but if I were PG, they should be getting worse. The cramping has also been so random and painful. I have heard cramping after transfer decreases chance of implantation - then you have the school of thought that cramping is a sign of implantation.

Yesterday I was having a really good feeling. Today - not so much.

Hey guys sorry I haven't been on here. I've been sad I had a BFN yesterday morning at10 dpiui and a BFN this morning 11dpiui I feel like I got my hopes up too soon. Just thought maybe this month was gonna be different... its hard telling my husband he gets this look that just breaks my heart. Just wish I could be a Mommy..... that aint too much to a ask for I mean if all these little girls can have babies on MTV then I should too I'm being pathetic I know, but this is my 25th unsuccessful month

I have a BFN too. I know what you mean about little girls having babies...I deliver them for a living and see "unintentional" pregnancies all the time. Starting to get more and more bitter at work.

 

[Sandra B]

Its sad because you have such an amazing career but you have to see the unfortunate situations a lot of helpless babies get born into. It would be hard to not steal every baby that you feel sorry for.

There was one left behind for adoption, which wasn't set up in advance - so they left her at the hospital for the agency to come and collect...It was a slow night at work and I sat and held her all night long. DH was nervous I was going to show up with her in my purse! lol. She was perfect. Makes me hopeful if this all doesn't work out that we can adopt some day.
