February IUI - Looking for Cycle Buddies!

[Amcolecchi]

Karena-spotting? I wonder why? Maybe from different meds? When is the nurse going to call you? I would be so anxious/frustrated too!!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

Grrrrr............lmao... but but but, I don't wanna wait lol!!!!

I am only at 8DPIUI though. I am going to do my best (hahahaha) to wait until Sunday. Let's see if I have the willpower


Karena, that worries me. Not like crazy worry cuz it is just spotting and it really might be all the hormones. But still. I hope she calls you soon. Please let us know what she says.

Amcolecchi ~ one day... one day off... then hahahahaha repeat cycle!!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Jazzy- you're so close!!! Hold on!!! HAHAH yes and Sunday is my DH's birthday!! I leave Thursday though for work so I am hoping I do ovulate sooner this month because if I am on my "regular cycle" I will ovulate next Saturday and on Thursday just wont be enough!!!!

Okay girls, so another nurse called me since my nurse is out today, she said the my estrogen had gone down which is probably why my follicles weren't measuring as well. So they are having me do the same injection tonight but then increasing it tomorrow and Sunday and back on Monday for monitoring. I asked about the spotting and she wasn't sure lol she said she is surprised to hear that but that as long as it is just a little that it is fine. Sooo I guess at least I get the weekend off...but still annoyed at why this is all happening. Just hoping and praying for good results on Monday!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Well, at least you get a little break. I am sure the spotting is nothing!! I am praying for good results for you Monday too!!!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

I am happy that they are working on the follicles and upping the dosage for you. Hopefully you will see the results you need to see on Monday. I guess all you can do about the spotting is just monitor it and alert them if God forbid it gets heavier. Stay positive. I think with the hormones our bodies just go wacko.

Thanks girls! I am sooo grateful for you both, I don't know what I would do without your support!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

Awww.... gushy!!! our lil friendship trio!!! XOXO

Ok, so now I feel like I am getting sick. I just took 2 tylonel. Grrrrr!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Aww Jazzy I hope you feel better!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

Hmmm....now I got this itch in my throat and my tummy is quesy. Is it too early? My luck I got good poisoning from lunch! Lol

 

[karena547]

Could def be symptoms Jazzy!!! Are you testing tomorrow????

 

[JazzyFresh]

I tested.... BFN. I know it's still early.....

 

[karena547]

It is still really early, stay positive girly!!! Symptoms are sounding positive!
AFM- spotting even heavier today. My doc called and left a message on my hubby's phone bc he thought it was mine, got it late last night and he said to come back for monitoring Sunday, so I was confused bc my nurse said Monday. I called the emergency after hours bc I'm thinking does that mean increase my meds tonight (Friday) instead of Saturday, thank god I called bc the nurse got it wrong. Increased meds last night and back in tomorrow. I have a feeling w/all this spotting my cycle will be canceled

 

[Amcolecchi]

Jazzy-yes it is still early!!! Don't get your hopes up!!! Sorry I wasn't on here much over the weekend, it was my husband's birthday! I bought OPK's online Friday and they should be here today so I am going to test when I ovulate. I am pretty sure it will happen while I am gone for work but I am hoping I do ovulate a little early so we can still have a chance!! Still BD every other night. I leave Thursday so I am hoping to get a positive OPK on Wednesday!!!

 

[karena547]

Jazzy...did you test again today??? I am going to be stalking!!

So good that you bought OPKs so you can know exactly when you ovulate!! Just keep remembering, those little guys can live up to 5 days in there so just get as much in as you can so that there are lots of little guys waiting for your egg!! I think you'll have a good chance!!

AFM - I am STILL spotting! Not as heavy as on Saturday, thank god! Went in for monitoring on Sunday and they said that as my estrogen starts to rise, the spotting will stop, still waiting for that, but at least I feel better about things. I had one juicy follicle at 13.7 on my left side and then I had an 11, and 3 - 10's on my right side, so my guess is that the 13.7 is taking the lead and eventually the rest will disappear. I am just glad that at this point, it looks like we dont' have to cancel my cycle! Phew!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Karena-is your IUI scheduled for this weekend? Has the spotting decreased at all!?

Karena-is your IUI scheduled for this weekend? Has the spotting decreased at all!?

They haven't scheduled my IUI yet, because my cycles are never the same, it is always unknown when my IUI will be until my follicles start reaching a certain size (usually around 15/16mm) and then they can tell me when it will probably be...but I won't actually trigger until they are 19/20mm. Spotting has decreased, thankfully, but is still there which I am kind of surprised about since I have been taking 75iu of follistim since Friday night! Just waiting and seeing now...I am praying that my IUI is not on the weekend because I have to go to a different clinic office (same clinic just in a different location) with doctors that I don't know and that don't know my body. I had it on the weekend last time and had a horrible experience bc the doc didn't look at my doc's notes and see that I had a special situation down there lol sooo I am hoping it is either Friday or next Monday...we will see! Right now I am on CD13...last time I had it on CD20, but diff meds this time so who knows!

 

[Amcolecchi]

oh ya!!! I remember that!!! Hopefully it's not this weekend either and it's like Monday or Tuesday next week!!! FX for you!!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

Still negative....No symptoms really yesterdat and today.

 

[Amcolecchi]

It's still early for you! Are you testing everyday?
