Calling all Donor Sperm/Insemination Buddies!!!

[Cppeace]

Fx for you Waypast! You're timing was fine and hopefully your hubbies sperm buffed up for the competition lol

 

[Savasanna]

Actually, it sounds like your timing was great! With ICIs you really want to do them a day or two ahead of ovulation because it can take a while for the sperm to get through the cervix. It's the IUIs that you want to do as close to o as possible.

Fx for you!

 

[WayPastReady]

Thanks ladies!

Congrats on your BFP, Savasanna!!!!! So happy for you! H&H 9 months!

 

[Savasanna]

Thanks! Not out of the woods yet, though. I had an ultrasound and they didn't see anything. They said not to worry and it's still super early but ...*gulp*. I had another beta today that I'm (im)patiently awaiting the results of.

 

[WayPastReady]

Definitely not unusual to not see anything. Keep thinking positive, and I hope your beta results from today give you some peace.

 

[Cppeace]

Well woke to temp drop and light flow so on to next cycle I go.

 

[WayPastReady]

So sorry, Cppeace. I know it's always disappointing to see AF.

 

[KylasBaby]

Hey ladies! Haven't been on her much as my mother, once again, started stalking a journal I have on here.... but I'm still following just not saying much about our plans as I don't want her finding out.

 

[WayPastReady]

Oh goodness, I'm so sorry. It's so nice to have this space to express our feelings and ask questions with people who understand what we're going through, and even though it's technically a public forum, there is an expectation of privacy and no one should have to worry about having that invaded. I sure hope no one's stalking me...if they are, they're sure getting some entertainment.

 

[Cppeace]

Understand completely Kylasbaby.

 

[WayPastReady]

Savasanna, have you gotten your beta results yet? Hope all is well.

 

[WayPastReady]

Goodness gracious this 2ww of mine is dragging on. I don't know how I'm only 4dpo...feels like 7 or 8 already.

 

[Cppeace]

lol that 2ww can drag terribly, but my wit till ovulation is always the longest for me lol

 

[WayPastReady]

Somehow life is now measured by fertility windows lol...AF, waiting for ovulation, ovulation, waiting for AF or BFP. If only we could forget for a few days where we are in our cycle!

Soon we'll be tracking time by the gestation of our miracles!

 

[Cppeace]

Lol hopefully.

 

[Cppeace]

I was so hopeful and such the first 6 months or so of ttc but my limbo/miscarriage really brought me down and now I'm trying to get back to feeling hopeful again since add AI in the mix.

 

[WayPastReady]

I can't imagine the pain and disappointment of having a miscarriage. The fear of it happening again is understandable, but hopefully you'll never have to experience that heartache again.

 

[Cppeace]

It's not really the fear of another miscarriage that has me less hopeful it was the fear of just never getting pregnant again. A lot of that was directed at my guy since we just never were having sex at good times for possible conception but with AI now we have much better chance so I'm trying to feel hopeful again.
The limbo I had was much worse on me than the actual miscarriage. I only knew I was pregnant for 10 days before I miscarried I got to wonder, doubt, deny, hope and feel every other emotion daily for almost 3 months of limbo before getting that bfp.

 

[WayPastReady]

Not knowing is the worst! I agree that if I knew it would eventually happen it would be a lot easier to wait, but I think this new route will definitely increase your odds of achieving pregnancy again since you'll get the sperm at the right time.

 

[Cppeace]

I believe so too. I think we'll all get our bfps soon
