Femara Friends!

Lola - I am pretty sure that you should not have CF if AF is around the corner! How many dpo are you? Have you tested at all? Oh girl, FXFXFXFX for you! I really hope thisd is a good sign and that AF stays away! I had cramps too, mild but there.

I posted this in another group, but thought I would post it here too:

Thought I would post the symptoms I had in the tww, because I obsessively searched them out while in my tww!

CD 13 - iui
1 dpiui - cramps
2-6 dpiui - gassy, bloated
7dpiui - tired - thought it was just from the Prometrium
8-10 dpiui - had a few spells where my heart felt like it fluttered and I had to catch my breath (never happened before and has happened a few times now, including again last night!), mild lower back pain, mild cramps, tight feeling stomach - like I just did a whackload of stomach crunches - which I definitely did NOT do! A few nausea spells here and there - but thought it was from the Metformin, which can do that to me too. Oh and "tingly" nipples.
11dpiui - fmu - such a faint line on an Internet cheapie tyhat I think I am imagining it!
11 dpiui - 7PM - a super, super faint, but visible by another person line on an Internet cheapie
12dpiui - 3AM - BFP on FRER!!!!!
13dpiui - I did another Internet cheapie and the line is still so so so faint - I think those tests suck! I am going to go buy some more FRER's so I can see if my line gets darker.
"Hello my name is Cyndy and I am addicted to peeing on sticks, in cups, sometimes on my hand!" lol

Cindy - did you get an u/s before your IUI to check if you've ovulated or not? I just wondered ...

[MKHewson]

Oh my this wait....I want to believe that the universe would not make you miscarry twice, but I know that is not the reality....13 more days until my scan...

 

[MrsCompass]

[MKHewson]

Sticky bean, MK!!! Any morning sickness yet?

I have felt "off" it comes in waves, but I wonder is it me create symptoms, I have been feeling twinges and mild crampies. I feel like its all wishful thinking LOL. So when is your IUI....soon isn't it. I am so excited for you

 

[Mrs.Stinski]

Went to my second follie check this morning...2 on right (was 3 on Sunday but I guess one disappeared or something and they were all 8mm then) one is 9mm and one is 14 and another on my left (was 10mm on Sunday) now 14mm. Dr has me doing 5 more days of Femara, 3 pills a day and I go back on Monday for yet another scan. He wants me to do OPKs every 12 hours just in case I OV before Monday. Also starting Metformin today. He has me starting 1 pill a day and gradually getting to 4 a day when I feel my body is ready. I see several of you ladies take it so can you tell me about your side effects and how much you take? Also found out some not so happy news today (speaking of Metformin)....I have diabetes Wow, what a morning.

I was on 1500mg of met, I started taking it slow, but I wanted it to work so I got up to full dose in about 10days LOL. I had some yucky belly and the poops now and again, otherwise it wasnt to bad. I found eating a small meal with lots of water per dose helped

Thanks MK! The dr was trying to describe the side effects without really saying "hey its gonna give ya the poo's", but I have IBS anyway so its all good. That was probably TMI, sorry about that. Im going to start with one tonight and hopefully I will be able to get up to the full dose rather quickly, Im hoping within the next two weeks. I guess Im party afraid that if I ovulate within in the next week and manage to get pregnant and Im not at the full dose that I will MC again....but I dont want to just stop this cycle either, so I guess we will see where it takes me.

I dont think met will affect your pregnancy, I took it until I got pregnant, then stopped
