Considering at-home insemination with donor sperm...?

[LunaBean]

I always leak too lol. Lea when are you gona ?!?!?! Go do one now please

 

[Tegans Mama]

I tested yesterday! There was a line. faint but there, even Hayley could see it! I am not doing one now, I don't need to pee and only have one FRER in the house and Hayley will kill me if I do it

 

[LunaBean]

Eek! Wens ur proper test date?? Im supposed to Ov on Sat or Sun, but duno if I will or not!

 

[Tegans Mama]

Tomorrow or Friday, not sure exactly which day. I think I'm gonna wait til Friday morning though maybe..
Is your donor paying you a visit this month? x

 

[LunaBean]

He said he'll still help.,.but I havnt text him to see if he's free or not yet!! Yeah Id wait til Friday!! Id love to be pregnant for Xmas, but prob aint gona happen!

Oooh, there's a lot of baby dust doing the rounds at the moment. One of my real life friends just found out she's pregnant too. Next summer is going to be one birth announcement after another!

Speaking of birth announcements, would any of you girls from the UK be willing to swap mobile numbers with me so you can post about our baby's arrival when it happens for us? If it turns out to be anything like last time I won't get to the computer for days but will have my phone and it would be nice to be able to let everyone know. PM me if you're up for that.

I'm counting down the days already - quite depressing really. My SPD/PGP has got really bad in the last week so I've another physio appointment tomorrow to be measured for crutches. Not fun. I know I don't really want to have the baby early, but once we get past 36 weeks (Christmas day for me) I'll be doing everything I can to encourage this little one out. Knowing my luck it will stay put until February...

Best wishes all round,

Gina. x

 

[Tegans Mama]

Fingers crossed tightly for you hun xx

Yeah I'm waiting til Friday, although I had a line y.day so I'm pretty sure I am. Baby will be due August 4th, which means we'll have two with birthdays in the same month if all goes to plan

 

[Tegans Mama]

Gina, I would be willing to swap numbers with you Although it'll have to be later since my phone is downstairs x

 

[LunaBean]

Sooo..my donor just text and he can only come up on Monday night It'll be too late cus I'll have already oved most likely! Grr!!!! He's away all weekend, I said Sat or Sun, and he said only Mon *sigh*

I usually ov between CD14 and CD16, but Mon is CD17

 

[EpdTTC]

Ooh Lea, I can't wait until your official announcement!

Lizzie-Would Friday be better? Can he do Friday?

 

[RubyRainbows]

Gina -- Hope you are feeling better soon! Can't wait to see your birth announcement!

Lizzie -- Can he meet Friday?? FX'ed it works out for you!

Lea -- Congrats! Can't wait to hear how your next test goes!!

 

[Tegans Mama]

I agree with Epd (sorry I forgot your name.. ) Lizzie, maybe ask your donor to come on Friday instead? Better to be early than not at all!

My official announcement won't be yet for a bit, at least until my period has not come. I'm paranoid now, after last month

 

[LunaBean]

I can;t do Friday OH has a docs app in Derry at 10am, so we have to leave here at 9am, then going straight to Letterkenny after to get ready for the formal We're trying to sort a time for Saturday, we'll have to rush back early just, but its quite far! Well it's a 2 hour drive, but we could well be hungover, and I wont let OH drive with a hangover!

Here's a map (cus Im sad like that lolol). Derry is right in the middle, so we'll be there awhile too to see Damhan etc.

It's across the border into Southern Ireland, which is sooo annoying, cus then we hafta get Euros, and everything is quite expensive!

a preemptive congrats to u lea.

my at home insem didn't work. i'm on cd5 now. i wasn't as devastated as i feared i would be. afterall, this was my first attempt and if it had worked i would really have avoided this thread since i'd feel bad about making an announcement after all you ladies have been through.

i started chlomid on cd3 - not many symptoms, just a few twitches in my ovaries (i'm assuming)

i normally ovulate on cd 14 so i think i'll do iui next friday.

although my fs went to a conf and learned that multple insems don't increase chance of success significantly, i will still be doing a home insem the day before and the day after my iui.

good luck ladies

 

[Tegans Mama]

I only insemed once this month. Did a test tonight (BAD LEA!!!!) and got another definite line. I promise I will wait until Friday to test again We have no more tests in the house! YAY

 

[LunaBean]

I want a PIC! NOW!!!!

 

[Tegans Mama]

Welll you can't!! Our camera doesn't have a macro setting and I spent an hour yesterday trying to get a decent pic but you can't see anything!! Wait until my lines are dark and you can have one then

Cranberry, everyone would still be really happy for you if you got pregnant on your first month trying! Here's hoping month 2 is your lucky one!
