IUI December Buddies

[anmlz86]

I'm keeping my FX'd for everyone who has their IUI's coming up, is enduring their tww, is having their medications adjusted and those who are just started their medications!! I'm slightly terrible with remembering names, so apologies there.
Tomorrow is my CD12 u/s and everything depends on if any follicles are maturing with the Femara. I'm so nervous/excited, I just hope everything goes well. It's reassuring reading everyone's updates, I hope the best for everyone. Wish me, and my ovaries, luck!!

 

[Mrs. T]

Good luck! Fx for you anmlz86.

 

[GreenOrchid]

Good luck anmiz hoping you have 2 or 3 nice follies

 

[Pookabear]

I know that I havent been posting much but I have been stalking, I have been logging on from my phone and it can be a major pain trying to type at times.

I am sorry girls I have been MIA for a while but nothing was going on with me. Today is cd 3 for me and got a call from my nurse that I have been tested positive for some wtf disease and now they want my hubby to get tested too before proceeding. So this cycle is a bust already.. I wish all of you wonderful ladies best of luck.. May all of your dreams come true.

Hi TTCbaby117 thanks for the info!

Nope, never been to fertilityfriend.com so will check that out. Have been charting via an excel spreadsheet listing symptoms and everything useful I can think of...!!

Haven't had a natural cycle since I came off the pill in Aug '10 - just a bit of spotting every few months (seemed to be the same week of the month on the rare occasions it happened though) then nothing til I started the drugs a little over a year later. I've never temped at all (kind of resistant to buying a specialist thermometer due to cost...) I might try it out though as I'd learn a lot each cycle from that!

I have a feeling you might be a bit of a whizz at conception 'science', so please can I ask your view on the below too...?

I read recently that:

1) HcG increases very fast but only after implantation - doubling every 24 hours or so;

2) that the process of implantation can occur as late as 12 days post fertilisation; and

3) that HcG can take up to 5 days to show up in a HPT (let's assume one that reads HcG at 50 mIU/mL not one of the super-sensitive ones).

So - surely that means that I could get false negatives using a HPT until as late as 17 days post fertilisation? If fertilisation was the day after ovulation that could therefore mean the HPT is only a sure thing at 18dpo or later?

Having tested negative yesterday I know I'm clinging on to hope a bit here - but does the logic stand?

Thanks in advance...!

Cd9 update: uss showed 1 fat follicle at 23mm and lining of 11.9mm! I was hoping for 2 follies to up my chances but one will do! I've been told to trigger tonight (I'd have prob I'd myself anyway) and do iui thurs am. We will tonight just incase I ov earlier than expcted and again on day of and day after iui. I'm staying positive with. PMA! Hopefully we will see several before Xmas! =D

Yeah for that fat follicle and good lining!!!

That's not good. Maybe it's something that's been dormant for a while?! At least if you both get treated you know everything is ok for next cycle.

Welcome Francis we're you on any meds prior to your iui?

Hey there, what meds were you on, if any? Did you trigger as well?

My second clomid, ovidrel and IUI cycle and progestrone I felt nothing! The first one I had some symptoms all bfn! BUT I held on to the fact that people say thE biggest sign is having none at all... Because most of us do before AF!!
to you!!

Good Morning Ladies!

Just got back from my cd 7 ultrasound and bloodwork appointment. Everything looks great!!!! I have a few tiny follicle in each side but one big one on the right and two big ones on the left. The smallest of the three is between 10-11mm. I'm supposed to get a call this afternoon with my dosing intructions and when I need to return. The nurse stated that I might not have to go back until Saturday with an IUI on Monday/Tuesday... I'm praying this is the plan. I'm just really happy that I got great news today!

Also, they are keeping me on Bravelle because of how well it's working on me.

Good morning ladies!

Good luck to everyone and miss maddy, that stinks! But get it cleare and have a healthy baby!!

I am at best 6DPO. And I've never tested this early but I did this morning because I bought cheap tests from target. Lol if I'm pregnant improbably haven't even implanted! So I got a faint blue line which I KNOW is the ovidrel but I have enough tests to get me through Monday if I feel the urge. I have just been having real sysmptoms this time and I am going crazy. Early this morning I thought a cramp woke me up, but not sure then I did have one real cramp and then AF type dullness ache for a lil bit. My hubby said you need to just let it happen, I said I am but I can't help to say everything I feel!!! Lol I NEVER have cramps before AF. The first day AF arrives I have a dull ache in my abdomen and that's it!
Anyways, going crazy over here hoping for my bfp finally.

I did the same with my last iui, drove me crazy! It's prob the ovidrel at this stage but hopefully will progress to a BFP!

I think I'll prob test out my trigger every other day from this weekend. I'll only be 3dpiui bu it makes the dreaded 2ww go quicker!

At 6dpo it's probably still the Ovidrel but the best thing about that faint is that if you test and the line is darker in a few days, then it's more then likely a BFP. I'll be watching for you testing updates

How much of Ovidrel was your trigger shot? My box states that mine is only 0.5 which I believe is only 5,000 units. I'm not sure. Anyone know? LOL

 

[ttcbaby117]

Charlie - I have never tested out the trigger but I might just do it this time...I think continuing to do something in the tww does help...we have to do so much in the first half of the cycle and it does fly by...whether it be injections or taking pills...etc...who knows...maybe that will help!
