[isela]

today is 10dpo i took a HPT test and was maybe because was early but im not going take a another test im going to wait for the supose to be here by monday i hope not

I am with you... 11dpo and this morning around 3:15 a.m. It's still early but I don't really have my hopes up. I am just bummed that I may have to do IUI with a house full of in-laws that don't know what we're doing. Good Luck! Drum roll..........................

I hope you dont have to do another IUI and this month you get i think we tested early FX

Oneof14 & Froliky > fx'd for a bfp!!! Hang in there!

Adroplet > hope you find the strenght to continue this journey, a break is normally a great thing for our mental health! I had 2 months in dec/jan and it was devine!

Babyonmyown > GL with your IUI today! Hope the spermy catch that eggy!

AFM > I also hate testing early as a bFn at home breaks me after the iui, however it hasn't changed the way I feel after the beta so this month I'm gonna be a poas addict and test everyday since 1dpo

 

[Tella]

Isela > Fx'd for you as well!

 

[froliky2011]

Thanks Ladies! I will be fine. I had a dream I was pregnant but got :BFN: right now. I know I am not out but it's not as likely. to adroplet!!! I am 38 so taking a month or two off is not likely. I will just keep going till one sticks. It will happen. Thanks again! xoxo

 

[froliky2011]

Will write more later. Hi Haj! Good luck Tella!

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Good luck Babyonmyown! On to the 2ww and your bfp!

Adroplet- sad to hear, but if you need time for you own health I completely understand that. Who knows maybe it'll happen when you least expect it to. Fx and good luck. We are here when you are ready to talk.

Froliky- you are so level headed! I'd be in my wreck stage by now, but you seem to take it all in stride. We can all learn from your que sera sera attitude

Nicker- how did the hormonefest go last night?

Haj- nice to see you back. You must be excited to get you IVF journey on the way!

 

[DaisyQ]

frolicky... I hope u get a late bfp. Two friends just got theirs - one at 13 dpo (super faint on frer), and the other on 16 dpo (it was bfn at 15 dpo). You never know.

It's been a while since I have written here.....

I got my AF on Monday this week and have decided to take a break from IUI this month.

I am just confused whether I should go for IUI #3 or move on to IVF??

My doctor recommends 3 to 4 tries of IUI before moving on but I am just not convinced!

 

[froliky2011]

Wantbabysoon - You're using donor right? You're single?

 

[froliky2011]

Hopeful42nd - Thanks. I have my tough days, but I don't always like to succumb to emotions because I it makes me feel gross about myself. Lol. However, it's a work in progress. Thanks. How is the pumpkin?

 

[wantbabysoon]

Wantbabysoon - You're using donor right? You're single?

No, I am married and not using donor

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Little pumpkin is good far as I know. Keeping me super tired and out of breath. The past few days I've been dizzy and having bad headaches. I'm taking it all as the baby is taking what it needs and it's causing a bit of hardship on me. Least it let's me know he/she is there. I just want to fast forward to the 28th when I get another ultrasound.
Thanks for asking Froliky

 

[DaisyQ]

wantbabysoon, studies show that the success rate of IUI after 3 attemps is almost the same as IVF (meaning, after 3 attempts, about 40-50% of women are pregnant, similar to the success rate of 1 attempt of IVF). Based on that, if it were me, I'd give it one more try. Do you do medicated IUIs? Medicated has a better success rate than non medicated, and injectables give the greatest success rate.

Do you have coverage for IVF? If you do it might be worth a shot. But I agree with daisy, IUI is proven pretty successful with 3 attempts. How have you responded follicle wise to treatment?(as in how many in mature at time of trigger). How has your DH's counts/motility been?

 

[Tella]

Wantbabysoon > I was in your shoes 2 days ago and believed IVF was my next step as my first 2 iui's failed. But since I have decided that there is good reason that most doctors world wide says 3 attempts is a fair amount and I didn't want to wonder if I was just to impatient and if the 3rd might have worked. A friend of mine on here just got her bfp using injects on the first iui and it gives me hope!

A break might be what ur body needs, take this month to decide and I hope we hear about a surprise natural bfp but otherwise I hope you can make a decision that's the best for you and DH! I understand ur heartache

 

[Nicker]

Not sure what to do. I got a all from the sperm distribution company. The courier had called them and said they tried to deliver my sperm twice but since the office was closed they are sending it back. The distribution company made arrangements for me to pick it up myself. The lady went an got the box which wa clearly labeled with orange stickers pointing up. The label on top said keep upright, and the girl from the sperm company told me to keep it upright. The lady at the courier company brought it out and laid it on its side!!! Do I open the box and make sure it didn't leak or do I just leave it in the sealed box and hope like Hell?

 

[MrsC8776]

Nicker would anything happen if you opened the box? I would have been so mad at the lady who handed it over. I probably would have said something like "ummm hello can you read?!?! Those stickers are there for a reason!." Some people I swear.

 

[Nicker]

I said "has that been laying long". She said no. To which I commented "It is supposed to remain upright". He never said anything.

 

[MrsC8776]

Fingers crossed for you that everything inside is nice and safe! When do you go in for your IUI again?
