February IUI - Looking for Cycle Buddies!

[Amcolecchi]

Karena-I agree!! We all have super cute names, we just need to pop some out hahaha!! I love that your DH's family spoke Greek to talk about the kids- that is soo funny and cute!!! lol

Have you ever heard of changing insurances to one that covers IVF? I know it is hard to find... just thinking at being at the ripe age of 36 just how time crucial it is to get preggo. I know that this is just our 2nd cycle and they jacked up the ovulation timing, but just thinking and preparing for the future.

 

[Amcolecchi]

Jazzy-no I haven't but if you find out anything, please let me know! My insurance covers NOTHING for fertility! So IUI's and IVF's are all out of pocket and an IVF is not something we can do right now...It will cost us $15k!! We are going to do 4 IUI's before taking like 6months-year to save money for an IVF...I am hoping we do not have to come to that but still!! Each IUI with meds and ultrasounds costs us $950

I haven't...we are renewing our insurance w/my husbands work right now and tried to see if there was anything they could do to add it and they couldn't so still no fertility treatments/meds are covered for us, so far we have spent over $5,000 ugh!

On a better note - trigger tonight, IUI on Friday!!! I am so excited!! And it is with my doctor which is even better news!!! EEEKkkk I have a great feeling about this one!!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Yayyyy for IUI Friday and by your doctor!!! This time it should go by WAY smoother lol!!!

13DPO and BFN again.............. I am trying to keep my head up. Googled and I guess statistically only 25% of women get a BFP before their period via POAS and 40% the day of their missed period.

Damn insurances!!! Grrr.... My DH works for Intel and when we signed up last year as a new hire for him, they have like 20+ affiliated insurances. I just need HIM to let me know when the enrollment opens again. MEN! lol.

Awww... Karena... excited for you!!!!! I hope this is the cycle darling!!!!

Jazzy- the initial thing is funny but totally cute! My husband is Anthony and I am Angela, so people ask us all the time if we will do "A" names but we are not hahaha. Here are my names:
Boy- Matteo Anthony, Gianni Guido (Anthony is my husband's name and my one grandfather. Guido is my father's name and a very big family name). I guess I should of mentioned I am VERY Italian, my dad is from there lol. So we speak Italian at home and uphold all the traditions. Anthony's grandfather was born in Italy, but they do not speak the language at home or is traditional. But since we have been married he is completely soaked in the nationality and he loves it! We will be teaching our kids to speak Italian too!
Girl-Selina Maria (Selina is pronounced Selena, just this is the Italian spelling).

I would love to hear your names Karena, if you don't mind sharing!!! Oh yes I leave Thursday morning for my work conference and I do have to travel. Going from Ohio to Tennessee, and I should be doing stuff to prepare, but I am not hahaha

Super Cute names!

I have a couple names for a girl We want to do Valeda Inez (Valeda is my Grandma's name) (Inez is my husband's Great grandma's name) We also have Sunday Rose picked out. (Sunday is my husband's sister name) (Rose is on both side of the family)
For a boy we have Chase John (Chase is after my best friend) (John is my husband's dad's name) I would also like to Do Seth Newman(which is my husbands name) so we could have a jr, but he is not for that. We also have John Timothy (John for his dad) (Timothy for a buddy hubby lost at war)

All and all the names that will deff be used is Valeda Inez and Chase John.

Jazzy the wait is killing me!!!! I can't take it lol your nurse needs to hurry up and call already!!!!!!

 

[JazzyFresh]

And got SOOOO many crazy twinges and random pains... crrrrrrazy!!!!!!

It's all good. It was a jacked up timing cycle anyways. And one thing I am looking forward to WOOHOO!!!

 

[karena547]

Ahhh soooo sorry Jazzy! Do you think POAS helped prepare you at all or do you wish you waited for the beta w/out POAS? Just curious!

I'm glad you have such a great attitude going forward and you go have that glass ((bottle)) of wine! lol

 

[Amcolecchi]

Hey ladies! I just got back from my work conference and I am at work today Should of taken the day off...anyways....How are all you ladies doing? So sorry about the news Jazzy!!!! I am staying positive for you though!!!

 

[karena547]

Hey!! I am sure you are glad to be home, hopefully you don't have too much work to catch up on!!

I am 3dpiui, and feeling good. I am not sure exactly when I ovulated, but on saturday I did have this weird pain on my left side (where my big eggie was) that almost felt like gas pain (LOL) in my ovary?!? Could that be ovulation pain? I don't ovulate on my own so I have never had ovulation pain lol...I have a feeling it's going to be a long 2ww!!!

Angela, do you know where you are in your cycle, did you ever end up seeing a true positive on your OPK?

Adrianna - where are you in your cycle, did you get your next protocol?

 

[Amcolecchi]

Karena-thanks!! Oh yes I get that pain every month!! That is definitely ovulation pain!! Which is a good thing!!! No, I NEVER got a true positive, which is weird because I usually always do!!! I did have a dark line on Tuesday but not darker than the control line and by Friday I got no line so I am thinking I ovulated Thursday (should of got a true dark line Tuesday night but didn't test). I only test once per day, I should of done it at least two times...but oh well, so I am saying I ovulated Thursday! Going to test Saturday, April 6th. My cycles are normally 30-32 days, so that day should be plenty of time around 14-16 dpo...I am not too hopefully since we only have a 2% naturally, but you never know!!! I am so excited for you!!!! FX!!!

 

[karena547]

Okay good, so that means I had IUI Friday and ovulated Saturday, hopefully that's good! lol

Sounds to me like you def. ovulated Thursday too!! Do you think you can wait that long to take a ?? Soo hard to wait lol My beta is on Friday April 5th (2 days after hubbies birthday!) So I want to test on his bday but if it is a BFN I don't want to ruin his birthday but he is all...it's gong to be a BFP and it will be the best birthday present...ummmm no pressure right!? lol

 

[Amcolecchi]

Awww of course no pressure hahahaha I am excited for you!!!!! I hate testing early because I hate seeing the BFN lol so I am okay waiting, but I do hope this all works out, perfect timing!!

 

[karena547]

Well we are in the 2ww once again together!!! So I will be praying for us...we need to get some BFPs on these boards!!!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Yes, Karena for sure!!! I am not too hopeful but it would be AWESOME for my hubby especially if we got prego this month. I know he HATES this being his fault, I wish I had the infertility, it's so hard for a man...This is why we have to actually have a baby!!! lol Men can't handle this!! So getting prego with being told we have a 2% chance would so make him happy!!!

to EVERYONE!!!!!
