.Omg JF...your baby is soooo beautiful!

Lisa I wish we lived closer so we could toast together! But if you're up to it grab some blueberry stoli with some fresh lemon, a splash for triple sec garnish with some blueberries (I use to bartend) ..and then put on ssomething sexy for dh and make that baby! You can do it mama!

Krystina I hope this cycle you get your rainbow. That would be wonderful.
Jaime congrats on your baby boy!
I think that when I become pregnant I would love to not find out but don't know if I can do it.

Nice pics girls.

We are going full steam ahead with the IUI process. We sat down and did alot of pros/cons and just basically talked it all out. Went over finances. We have enough in savings for hubby's next year of tuition bills and for a few rounds of IUI's. Plus, I have $2,000 in my FSA (money gets taken out of my salary and goes to an acct that I can use for medical bills). So we are going to do it. I feel good about it for the most part. Thanks for the comments ladies.

That sounds like a great plan, Lisa. Do they say how many rounds is average?

One really informative site said women under 35 have a 16% increased chance each cycle. It said most doctors go for a six month period, and if it doesn't happen in that time they move to the next step. IUI is like glorified sex anyway. The only difference is that the sperm is closer to the targets. So I liken it to the saying that a normal couple would see results in about six months. Only they have a 25% chance each cycle.

Jamie, great pics, he seems nice and comfortable in there.

Lisa, glad you and hubby have a game plan. Wishing you all the best.

Monique and Krystina, I think I'd want to wait too but I don't know if I could last.

Still waiting..........?

 

[jf1414]

Lisa you are going to get your baby! Just keep trying and dont lose hope. My cousin just got pregnant and was trying for 7 years. She eventually got her baby I believe with some sort of assistance but she never gave up! xoxo wishing you the best!

Krystina where are you in your cycle???
