Clomid round 3 anyone else?

[Noele0002]

Cntrygrl- That is such a cute name

Star- It's finally June!! Our lucky month hopefully Let these new journeys begin!!

Hoping everyone is doing well!!

 

[star25]

This should be our lucky times noele!
I'm not sure when I'll be starting but if I have to wait for af to start then that will be only 1-2 weeks after first appointment if my cycles stay fairly short
Not sure if I will be doing the short or long protocol but my clinic mainly specialises in the short so hopefully all wont take too long and could be starting in July
Fingers crossed for us!

Where are you in your cycle?

 

[Noele0002]

Star- Fingers crossed that your cycle stays short so you can start sooner than later I think AF should be here in about a week or less for me... Getting emotional, slight back cramps, acne starting up... The usual pre AF symptoms lol

 

[HowarthHopes]

Hi Ladies,
Sounds like you are all doing well? I had my scan yesterday, and unfortunately it looks like my one baby did not develop properly, as we could not see a heartbeat, but the other baby is 100% fine. Feeling very mixed emotions...
Wishing you all a pleasant weekend x x x

 

[Noele0002]

Howarthhopes- I am really sorry to hear that but I am glad to hear the other baby is doing good!!

 

[cntrygrl]

Howarth-- I understand the mixed feelings. Even though we lost twin B very early on you're sad to be losing one, but at the same time glad that the other is thriving. You start rearranging your life for twins and getting things set. It will get easier. I'm here if you need to talk

 

[star25]

So sorry Howarth, sending you hugs and glad other little one is doing well, cant think what your going through, just try to stay strong and look after yourself xx

 

[Noele0002]

Good morning ladies!! I hope everyone is doing good

Star- Less than 10 days to go for your first IVF appointment and I am so excited for you!!

Dannixo- How have you been doing?? Have you finished all those foster classes yet? Anything new going on?

AFM- CD 30 and waiting for AF to arrive. I have no idea when I ovulated since I was not paying attention, temping, or even trying and I remember having ewcm pretty much throughout most of my cycle. It's funny how much of a difference there is in cm when not taking meds. My FF is expecting AF to show by Wednesday so hopefully by the end of this week I will be back on meds and DH and I can give IUI a chance.

 

[Dannixo]

Yes! We got licensed last friday! Just waiting for a call for a placement now. So excited yet nervous! Other then that cd 10 today. Not holding much hope. First month using clearblue fertility monitor

 

[star25]

Congratulations Danni, how are you finding the monitor?

Exciting noele, cant wait for you to start
On the other thread I'm on 4 ladies have had embryo transfer recently and theres been 1 bfn, 1 chemical and 2 bfps, 1 of which is probably twins, just hope I get as lucky!

 

[cntrygrl]

Star-- Your IVF appointment is so SOON! Can't wait!

Danni-- Yay for being certified!

 

[star25]

Nearly just a week to go, yay!

 

[Dannixo]

Congratulations Danni, how are you finding the monitor?

Exciting noele, cant wait for you to start

It is okay, asked for way to many test sticks this month so I skipped quite a few days. It showed me peak at cd 19 which is super late for me

 

[Noele0002]

Dannixo- That is awesome! Congrats! I hope you get a call soon!!

Star- I've got my fingers and toes crossed for you!! Where are you at in your cycle?

 

[star25]

I'm CD19 today, I'm not sure if I start the ivf at the start of a new cycle but think you so so my af might even be too soon after my appointment nxt weds so might have to wait for the one after that depending on how they are for appointments
I plan to take time off work after the transfer until I know whether its worked or not so in those 2 weeks we will go on hol somewhere, not abroad but somewhere nice in the country where we can take the dog with us as I haven't got any other time booked off work til Oct as theres not alot of spaces left so I'll make the most of my opportunity!
I said to my manager today but what if it's in Aug when theres already more people booked off andshe said she doesnt care, whatever it takes for me to have a baby, just hope it becomes a reality!

Howarth, how are you today? X

 

[Noele0002]

Well ladies... AF showed today!! I am happy to be back to TTC this cycle and am currently waiting on a call back from my doctor!! Hoping all goes to plan with this cycle and we can try IUI

 

[star25]

Great news noele, keep us updated, hope you get your bfp

 

[Noele0002]

So I am going in on Monday June 23rd (DH's bday for my CD 13 follie scan and if all goes to plan I will get my HCG shot. Then they want us to come back exactly 24 hours later for the IUI so on Tuesday June 24th. I am pretty excited!

So Cntrygrl, Dannixo, or anyone else who have had an IUI done I am interested in a little insight...

Does it hurt? Stupid question I know but I am still wondering... Did you take it easy the rest of the day? Do you know what the sperm count and all the numbers are supposed to be at after washing?

Also, the doctor told me that my DH should not have intercourse or any kind of 'release' 3 days prior because they want the best sperm count possible. Did your doctors recommend this too? Also, we are doing the IUI 24 hours after the trigger but most of what I read online was 36-48 hours after trigger... How many hours was your IUI after the trigger?

Thanks in advance for your input It's always exciting to try something new!!!

It didnt really hurt, they just use a catheter and it has pinching and slight cramps. I took that day off work and rested. Most doctor's will tell you but my clinic does not tell you at all so we never knew. Yes my doctor recommend no sex for three days prior too. My iui was always the day after the trigger.
