Dealing with azoospermia?

[CanadianMaple]

Congratulations MrsC!!!!! Yay! You must be over the moon!

raelynn- It sounds like a positive to me!

AFM- I just realized my IUI will probably happen on Aug 2 or 3. I have 1 week of pills left and they plan to do the trigger at CD11.

Congrats Raelynn hope that line gets stronger

afm 13dpo and test was still bfn... it's superdrug own brand and even though on the packet it says early test inside it says from 15dpo so I'm still in with a chance I guess. If anything seeing a bfn will have prepared me for Otd if it doesn't change... every cloud and all

I don't really feel anything at the minute just this headache that wont seem to go, no cramps, no sore boobs, no implant bleed, no bloat

Going to take a day off from testing tomorrow and just test on otd but going to get a clear blue digi at least I wont have to try and figure out if I can see a line... the words will be final

raelynn~ I'm excited for you! Fx the line gets darker.

MJ~ You are so sweet. Thank you for your wonderful words to everyone.

DG~ That pic is so funny! I'm glad your DH is doing well. Sorry to hear that he caused himself a little pain though.

AFM~ The line got darker this morning and a digital worked. We got our bfp! It's been a journey but we are more than happy. Thank you ladies for all your wonderful support.

just missed this as I was writing my post at the same time BIG congrats to you

wibble wobble- I hope you get that BFP. It's not over until AF shows. I have a friend who has been pregnant 4 times and never got a BFP until about 14 or 15dpo.

Hey Ladies.. I havent been on in a while to update, but been dealing with all the meds and hormones

Well.. My body responded very well to the meds and during the last ultrasound.. on Sunday July 8 (My Bday) They saw 36 follicles and I had 17 that were where they wanted them to be.. I did my Trigger shot(Ovidrel) that night at 8:30pm and was Scheduled for transfer yesterday July 10th

Well, Retreival went well.. They retrieved 13 really good eggs. I was pretty nausea from the anestesia and pretty crampy and bloated. My dr told me to make sure to stay hydrated and drink lots of gatorade and eat lots of chicken noodle soup

I got the call today.. Out of 13 eggs- 2 didnt look that great so they fertilized 11 with ICSI. Right now we have 8 perfect Embies and they will call tomorrow to let me know if transfer will be Friday or Sunday

Do any of you have advice on the 3day vs 5day transfer? Im curious if one is better than the other.. My clinic says if more than 6 make it then they rather do 5 day..so I guess thats why they will wait and call tomorrow to see if all still are doing good!


Good Luck to everyone

ShortyA- That's great news!! I don't know anything about transfers, but just wanted to wish you well.

I just called my husband's insurance company. Nothing is covered. Not the Clomid, not the trigger, nothing.

 

[wibble wobble]

Shorty they say at day 5 only the best embies will be left therefore it's easier for them to choose the best looking 1. Loads of women get pregnant from 3 or even 2 day transfers tho, I guess int he end you just have to trust in what your clinic believes is best. Will you be freezing any embies?

 

[wibble wobble]

Where's Snd got to? Missing you girl hope you are ok x

WW - spots are a good sign and it's still early - keeping everything crossed

MrsC - huge congrats hun! That's fantastic news

Rae - still keeping everything crossed for you too

Shorty - great news - hope all continues to go well. As WW said, you have to put your faith in the clinic. We weren't given the choice really - we were told it would be a 3 day transfer because of the fact we only had 3 fertilised, but they phoned that morning to say they were all doing really well and couldn't distinguish between them and wanted to wait until day 5 so they could pick the best. Ironically, the 2 best didn't implant and the poorest that was a day behind and frozen on day 6 was the one that resulted in our

MrsC - Super happy for you!! We're going out to get a digital after our date night tonight. Hubby is the one that wants to see the words...so cute.

Wibble wobble - Keeping my fingers crossed for you! My line is still barely there so you're definitely still in it! I thought for sure the lines would be darker at this point but I was very wrong. Is your OTD friday? I think I remember you saying that. Mine is too so hopefully it is a good luck day all around!

SND - How are things with you? I know you were a part of this testing group too. Hope we hear your BFP soon!

I took an ic just now on my lunch break and hubby and I both see a line again! And that is without fmu. I trust hubby more than me because his eyes aren't as good so if he sees it, it must be there!

Yes we will be freezing what's left over just in case... I hope it all works out either way

Congrats to you as well! I'm so excited for you. I didn't think the digital would work today but honestly when I tested I used one of each kind I had. It's a little embarrassing but I used a FRER, ic, Walmart test, and the digital. The ic and Walmart test were so faint and the FRER was dark. I guess when going through fertility treatment we have to stock up on tests because so much money is put out in other places. I'm excited for you to test again!

MrsC - YAYYYYYYYYY CONGRATSSS!!!!!

raelynn - I say it sounds like a positive to me!!

wibble wobble - I agree with CC...your still not out yet.

Shorty - Thats great news!! Good luck with the transfer!

CC - Insurances suck big time!!!

As for me...took my first BCP last night. DH is still really sore...fevers on and off. I feel soo bad and helpless. I hope he is better by sunday or else we might have to cancel our trip.

 

[raelynn]

Stinas - So sorry about your hubby. Has he been keeping ice on it and taking the pain meds? Hopefully it eases up soon

MrsC - I totally agree about the tests. I've been using expired ic since I already had them. Apparently they still work but I just noticed the other day they say expired May 2011. We've been trying to hold out on buying more tests but we're breaking down for the digital because we're just too excited. They're so expensive for something you just pee on!!

 

[Stinas]

raelynn - Yes he has been icing it. He still has it in the jock strap thing they gave him. I took all of the gauze they had in there yesterday, just left one small piece where the incisions are. Going to convince him to shower tonight lol He says they feel less swollen today, but more sensitive. He has been taking the meds....sleeping on and off. Hopefully hes out and about tom.

Stinas- You must be over the moon!

I hope no one minds, but I started a thread for donor sperm IUI in the other forum. I kind of feel like now that we have stepped away from trying to find sperm in DH, I've been feeling like our new journey doesn't really apply to azoo in a sense. I'm not leaving here though, you all have been such support during my darkest times.

I will be sure to check up on ya over there. I am such in the beginning stages, and I might need to mosey on over to that thread- depending on where the good Lord takes us.

I'll also be following your blog!

I wish you the best of luck in bringing your miracle baby into this world. It will definitely happen, and I'm sure no matter HOW- you and your husband will be filled with joy from the second you see that little "sac" in your first US.

Take care and God bless,

Carrie

Stinas- hope your husband is feeling better by now Not fun to have him battling fevers in addition with the pain. Having a shower might make him feel more closer to normal.

 

[Deb111]

Stinas - sorry dh is still struggling. Have you mentioned the fevers to the clinic or your doctor? It could be a sign of an infection x

 

[ShortyA22]

Well.. Got the call from the office-- still have 8 good embryos and transfer will be Sunday- doing day 5 transfer
