[Britt11]

just wondering britt, how cum ur having iui??
good luck with it xx

hey, well we are getting it because we are at a FS clinic now. We are both in our early 30's and have been very actively been trying for 10 months now. They did a SA on DH and his morphology is quite low (motility and volume was fine)...my #'s are good except CD3 bloods could be better but they arent horrible.
With the IUI they wash his sperm (get rid of a lot of the bad ones) and inject it right at my cervix, has a much better chance than natural. Also I am on Clomid to induce a superovulation

we are really hoping this works

I am really hoping this is your lucky cycle hon!!
if not, I know the surgery will be very helpful for you. I read a stat that if the fibroid is affecting your fertility once its removed your chances increase by 70%

loulou, did you find that robistussin helped your cm....I tried it last month and didnt seem to get any ewcm .....I mean maybe a bit but I thought it was make more of it. How much did you take?

 

[ttcbaby117]

yeah thanks britt - I have heard that also....I spoke to my dr last week about a possibility that I might have endometriosis and he didnt seemed surprised that I might....UGH, you would think he would have said something about it. So I have an appt in the states on June 21 to speak to my dr over there about the fibroid adn the possible endo....

either way hon you are on the right path, you could also could conceive in the next bit, you never know fx'd for you....I have heard so many success stories after the surgeries. I actually had early endo as a teenager and early 20's it went away with a D&C and being on BCP....i dont have a trace of it anymore (my mother had a hyseterectomy at age 27 for endo)


Smile4me, thanks for the reply. I go in for the procedure the day after my +ve opk, which is likely in about 4-6 days from now good luck with you as well

 

[ttcbaby117]

wow britt - did you have a lap done? how did teh D&C take the endo away...isnt the endo in your abdominal cavity?

 

[ttcbaby117]

sam - hi hun, where is the new forum, I keep saying i am going over there...do you have the link? get the bding in before he leaves and as soon as he returns. it might be enough, I have a girlfriend who swears she got pg while her husband was away....hahahahaha

 

[Britt11]

wow britt - did you have a lap done? how did teh D&C take the endo away...isnt the endo in your abdominal cavity?

I dont know hon, I thought endo had to do with your uterine lining as well- it builds up thick or something- hence to shed it periods are very painful and heavy.
anyway, I was seeing an OBGYN at 22 and it was his recommendation to have the D&C and start BCP- he said it "might" work, and it really did....I used to have periods so heavy and painful I couldnt go out or move for a week...I felt relief within a couple of months....

 

[ttcbaby117]

oh wow....well I have heard of it inside the uterus but I heard it was rare...thanks for sharing. I know I dont have it inside, but maybe outside, so they will have to do a lap to check for it.

no worries, yeah keep us posted on how it goes...I think mine was just a lucky chance that it worked and it did, you should be good on the lap (no I never had that done)


oh here is the link to the new thread. IDK which one we are to post on, I just post on both. I got to get to work ha ha...talk soon

Hi everyone,

Welcome Learr, hope you have a short and sweet stay her in the clomid club x

Britt11, So glad your HSG went well my love, that's great news. Good Luck with the IUI x

TTC, Wishing you luck for this round of clomid lovely x

Babyloulou, Fab news on the +hpt's today x

Sam, I hope your eggy behaves and arrives at the right time x

Caz, I reckon your +opk is just around the corner.

I have scraped into the 2ww by the skin of my teeth. My temps are still pretty rubbish. I don't know if that is just me or if it means I'm still not ovulating properly?! I guess only the bloods will tell me. FF says I O'd on Cd17 so do you ladies think I should go for bloods on CD24 (7dpo) or stick with CD21 (tomorrow) and risk low numbers as I am arguably only 3dpo?

HI Britt- the other thread was set up so that all the girls who have had their bfps- ie. Megs, rudeollie, nursekel, SBB, etc.. could still chat with us clomid girls that they used to be friends with on this thread. It was set up so that people on this thread don't have to hear pregnancy symptoms and things if they are feeling low or whatever. The other thread isn't in the TTC or LTTC section (it's in the general groups section) and so people can discuss what they like in there. But this thread is still here for people who want to not have to listen to the preggers girls. I think people can post where ever they feel like at the time xxx

 

[babyloulou]

Only just noticed your question about the cough medicine ttcbaby! Yes I took it this month- loads of the stuff!! Still didn't have any ewcm really- only a very tiny bit one day early on. I also drank pink grapefruit juice and green tea every day!

The main thing I did though was to use loads and loads of Preseed!! I have been using it for yonks but I only ever used a bit because I was worried about drowning the sperm! Then Rudeollie told me that the month she got her BFP she used a full syringe each time. I also heard another girl with her bfp saying she had used loads too! So I used a full syringe during every BD for about 2 weeks (made things VERY slippy though and slightly weird for OH)- I also used Softcups after every single BD too xxxx

 

[caz & bob]

ho well i think i will use alot more then i only use 1-2 me haha x x x x x

 

[lola13]

Lou - congrats on your bfp!! Do you mind if I ask how often you BD'd and which days relative to ovulation? It gives us material to obsess about!
