IUI/IVF Aug/Sept/Oct/November

[Springy]

Back from the 2nd day of IUI. Today was 25 million with 95% motility so higher number with less motility, go figure! But the doctor today said all they require is 5 million so I have LOTS more than that!

He also discussed the fact that I for sure released 5 follicles as that was confirmed via ultrasound this morning .... so its now in a higher power's hands to decide if one or more of these eggies will be my baby!!!

Now into the dreaded TWW!!! I am suppose to go back for a beta on the 23rd if I don't have a period before that but AF will show up on the 21st if I'm not prego.

Ya'all are wussies! Come on ... a little crunch crunch on a roachy isn't worth it?!?!

I have to thank you for making me laugh... I'm so depressed over this process and I crack up everytime I see you folks talking about the roaches (that is- after I gag from the description)..

Good luck with the polyp removal. I'm not sure if the D&C is much different but when they took mine out with a hysteroscopy there was zero pain later that day. Good luck!

 

[HuskyMomWI]

It's official ... we have 5 frosty's -- they were frozen yesterday.

There are a couple more that they are letting grow another day to see if they will turn out. Praying for those lil too!!!

That's FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!! Just a matter of time before they implant and you have #2 on the way!

Any other kiddo's:

Hi all!
I'm 34.
15 cycles ttc
IUI for unexplained infertility
3 kids. #1 conceived after 19 months ttc and 4 IUIs, then 2 spontaneous pregnancies. Same partner.

Just went in for my cd 12 scan this am. I had taken femara cd 3-7. They found 2 follies, 20 and 14.5. Lining looked good at 10.8.

I did trigger this am, and will do IUI tomorrow morning. I'm a little nervous about the SA actually. It was good 9 years ago, but I still have a little bit of dread about it.

Ideally they would like to wait 36 hours post trigger to do IUI, but I felt like Ov is coming on tomorrow and I was afraid that if I waited 36 hours, the egg would be gone and dead.

Sounds good Springy! That's a lot of follies and a lot of sperm, lol. At least ONE of them has got to get the directions right!

I'm right behind you. Going for IUI tomorrow. And I'm like you, I have never made it to a beta either.

Good luck

Ouch. I hope the removal is as painless as can be

And, if you have any extra PMA, feel free to send it my way, lol.

I did it one month and went in only to be heartbroken by the phone call in the afternoon followed by Big Red's appearance a few hours later .... I'll avoid that at all costs now and just wait it out a few extra days so as to not torture myself.

My lp is never 14 days. Even with progesterone, AF would come on time at 12-13 dpo. So, I never made it to that testing day. It saved me the car ride in I guess.
And honestly, I don't even like to take hpts either.

There are only about 5 cycles in the last 2 years where my LP is longer than 14 days. So on a 15dpo I would use an HPT but before that I don't torture myself. As before that time I'm PUPO and ignorance is bliss

Hello girls

Thank you for the warm welcome and filling me in a bit I really laughed reading some of your posts, but it might take me a little while to keep track and sort out who's who.

Talking about betas.... My beta won't be until 17dper (days past egg retrieval) oh man, that has me worried...my lp is almost always 13 days too. Great. One more thing to obsess over

Springy, your numbers sound awesome Hun!!! From reading through posts, I found there was a girl on bnb who ended up with triplets from her iui!!! Wowzers!!! You may be next! our doc recommended we do 2-3 embryos for transfer. The 3 has me a little squeamish but I think we've decided we're going to go for it.

I guess I forgot to say this will be #1 (and possibly #2 and #3 ) for my dh, for us together.

Well I'm sending lots of to everybody in the 2ww already! That'll be me some time next week too! Well we all need it so all around!!
