Katie keep your chin up! Cramping as you know is normal, just keep thinking its normal Glad to see your number so high!!

I had my u/s yesterday to see what ovary was going to produce this month, turns out its to early to tell.. bummer so now I have to go back again Wednesday and I guess potentially friday or saturday. Hope this all works soon, all this driving is brutal! On the plus side, my moods have been really good and this hasnt been stressing me out much lately

Hoping to see a few more bfp this month

Great numbers Katie! Cramping is totally normal in early pregnancy, its your uterus stretching and making place for that lovely bean that's growing inside you. If you're concerned, maybe go to your doc and they can put you at ease or give them a call.

What cd are you on hun? On my cd3 scan, they could see possible follies. I had 5 on my right and 6 on my left. On cd11 I had 2 on my left (13 & 14mm) and I think 2 on my right (both at 10mm).

 

[steph_466]

Hey ladies sorry ive been away for a few days! So the last u/s went well. Showed my dominant follies, my biggest then was 12mm on the right. That was wednesday and today tuesday, I got a positive opk. So we are off to the city tomorrow to do the first round of iui So excited!! He said the other side was .99 cm so they figured I could ovulate out of both sides this month and there were a few follies. But no reason for concern! Ahh I hope this shift goes by real quick

 

[steph_466]

I also have a question, Im having ov pain tonight and the procedure tomorrow afternoon, wont I miss it for timing???

Did you not do the trigger? Remember, you egg(s) can live up to 24 hours, so if you are ovulating, then you will still have a chance. Timing is everything when doing iui and with iui, they put the spermies where they need to be(less time to travel). If you are concerned about the timing, speak to your doc before you do the procedure. Good luck hun! Hope the 1st iui works for you!!!

 

[steph_466]

Nope doc didnt mention anything about a trigger. I think there's always uncertainty when trying something new. Getting excited now!!

 

[katiecakes]

Good luck!!

 

[cupcakestoy]

CD 12, won't be long now til our 2nd IUI!!!! Excited & scared all wrapped up into 1~ lol Good luck girls! Where is everybody at?

 

[wildchic]

I'm on cd4 started meds yesterday and go for a scan on the 30th(cd11). Start progynova again on cd8 and will also be taking cyclogest pessaries 4 days after iui. Good luck steph, hope iui goes well!

 

[froggyfrog]

Im on cd 7, not taking any meds this cycle. Nor are we doing iui. We needed a month off! Im really not sure what im feeling right now. Im just not excited about anything that has to do with ttc. I really felt like iui was going to be our answer.

 

[katiecakes]

Froggy- I am sorry the iui did not work for you. At my RE, we were geared up for the next step if letrizole didn't work and that step was the injectable hormone phase.

Hi ladies, I'm 32 and DH is 34 and we have been ttc #1 for 9yrs. I have Pcos and only my left tube, the right was removed due to a hydrosalpinx 2 yrs ago. We've done a year's worth of Clomid combined with 2 IUI's + trigger and changed OB and RE. We had one natural bfp while on a break that sadly ended in 2009. None since then. So after having a natural ovulation last month and no bfp, my RE started me on Femara for the first time. I have also been taking Metformin since Jan. I had my u/s today and had 2 follies ready to go, so I do the trigger tonight and IUI on Sunday. Hoping for a miracle

 

[steph_466]

Swtpinkbabi thats pretty exciting!Welcome to the group! We def have some similiarities! I also have pcos, and I have no left tube. I tried six months of clomid with no success and now am on to femara and iui. I am happy to say I like the femara way better than clomid. No side effects! And ive been on metformin now for three years.


So ladies my iui went well last week, dh sperm count was 42 million!! Everything went well. Now im in the tww and trying not to get my hopes up! My chart is really weird again?

Very similar indeed. My iui went well also. Dh's count was 64 million, he was very excited about that. The doc that did it was as well, although I wished it would been my doc's weekend. Anyway we are officially in the tww together. I told myself I'm not going to symptom spot like last month, just gonna let it be and wait the 2w2d for either af or bfp.
