IUI Jan/Feb/March/Apr/May 2012 - Status updates on page one 12 bfp

Nicker - What is PD? Glad the kids had fun and you enjoyed watching them. Hockey is a good distraction. Sorry about your dog but glad he/she was able to get it out and sleep well. I hope the headaches stay far away. I am so tempted to start some sort of drug/injection thing to get prego but don't want multiples. Since I already had a cycle with two follicles w/o medication, it worries me a bit. However, time is of the essence and I am getting old. I have a feeling injections will do the job for you! xoxo

Oneof14 - Yeah, if I get a I am on to IUI #4. I have been doing yoga for almost 5 years and am now embarking upon becoming a certified teacher. I want to deepen my practice and it calms me more than anything. How are you doing?


Daisy - I know, that was exactly my thoughts. It also helps to calm me down and I love it. It makes me realize that this TTC is not my whole life and there are other things I love and that make me happy. You're hanging in there.

We are the same age. My doc won't do the IUI if I have more than 4 follicles. If I get pregnant with 4 follicles my chance of twins is 25%. Triplets is 3% and Quads 1%. To me those odds are acceptable. Twins might even be welcome since it was always my dream to have more than one child and this is my last chance. PD is professional development. I sure hope this round of injectibles does the trick

Dillia -

There are so many in TWW! Wow!

 

[DaisyQ]

Dilia, sorry about the bfn.

 

[drsquid]

For some reason I can't type on babyandbump on my phone. I tried to delete the whole thing but couldn't. I just wanted to say hope all of you were doing well. I'm enjoying my vacation. Super sunburned and the belizeans appear to be super fertile people so hopefully it rubs off. I'm eating enough to look pregnant when I get home. I can't hope to catch up and the Internet is quite slow on my phone. Fingers crossed for everyone*

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Sorry dillapickle hope the Easter month is lucky for you!

 

[froliky2011]

Sorry Dilia. I thought you were still early enough to still possibly get a

Hi nicker.

First of all thanks for the warm welcome. Is ur furkid a Maltese? U must hav feed him healthy during his lifetime that he is able to live this long

I have 2 shih tzu age 3&6 and I love them like my own baby.

As for pergesterone I was not given any . I was doing injectables of follistim for 4days of 50iu then another 2days of 100iu and 38hrs before my iui I took OVIDREAL (trigger shot) all shots was done by my lovely husband with no pain or bruise on my tummy area

Did u do any iui yet? I was having cramping from day 1-4 around both my ovaries & headache(mild) up to yesterday. I dont normally get cramping before AF or during my AF so this is I think cause by the trigger .

I did took a hpt test yesterday which is 7dpiui & trigger is out of my system so watch ever result I get by 13dpiui or 14dpiui will be the truth that I will hav to deal with & I'm so scared lol

Anyone took ovidreal trigger & hav same symptoms as me ?

 

[Babyelephant]

Ooh & I had 2 mature follicle measuring at about 18mm on my left &22mm on my right . I really hope this is good .

Hi there.. I took an HCG trigger- but it wasn't ovidreal- it had another name. I had cramps from day 3-7.. Somewhere in the middle of that- they turned into AF like cramps- it was a miserable week.. But now- i dont have many symptoms other than some crazy CM (more than normal) and some mild cramps.

 

[Babyelephant]

Hi usamom,

I still hav another 7days till I'm 14dpiui . & hope my cramping is not AF cramps. Cuz I don't normally cramp before AF . So fingers crossed!

Ur on ur #2 iui ??

Frolicky > WOW yoga teacher sounds fantastic!!!!!!!!!! Im glad you can have another interest that helps with this difficult stressful time! Have you considered IVF? Maybe if you do injectables and do have to many follicles you can convert to IVF.

Nicker > I would also take those odds, but I think my DH will faint at the thought of triplets even at 3%

drsqiud > Im thrilled that you having a awesome time, it is exactly what you needed! And lets hope that fertility there helps you!!!!!!!!

babyelephant > I had all the pregnancy symptoms on my first IUI cycle with ovidrell and progesterone, so I cant say which one was the cause of it. But #2 I had just about none. Fx;d for a bfp for you soon!!!! Those sized follicles are great, especially with them being on both sides, so there would have been a egg for all the sperm waiting.

usamom > my first iui I also had lots of cramping from 1dpo, till almost the end. In the beginning it is due to the high number of sperm and liquid they insert into your uterus. The ones there after I have no idea why.

AFM > AF started very light on Friday night and then full flow on Saturday morning, it has been painful again In the past I used to go to light flow by day 2 but im still on heavy so im thinking the accu helped with my lining and therefor the heavier AF.
And then by CD3 it was barely there spotting, now im worried about the same thing as Nicker was a few days ago, the scan on CD3. How did you do it Nicker?

It turned out just fine. At my RE's office they always make you go pee before the scan so what I did was insert a fresh tampon about 45 minutes to an hour before my appointment and I removed it right before the scan. I had to wait a couple of minutes for the doc to come in to the room and we even talked a little after the scan but I never had any leakage.

Thanks for not thinking he is a poodle LOL. He is actually a pure bred Bichon. He was 13 in that picture. He is actually on a very restricted diet since he developed pancreatitis 4 years ago. He went from 14 to 8 pounds then. He sprung back. He has been very well taken care of and he has a wonderful loving vet.

I hope to be having my third IUI this week. On the first one I thought I felt all kinds of things starting 4 days later. The second one I didn't feel anything really. I think that was more so because I had learned that symptoms don't mean anything for me due to the progesterone so I just ignored. First cycle, I kept thinking surely they were signs and I was googling every little twitch or twinge.

Its so great to hear that there is more ppl out there that treat their animals as kids. Mine is exactly the same, i have a Pug (Duke) and Pekingese (Bella) and they are my whole life. my mom on the other hand has a n aray of 24dogs on the farm and is the biggest animal lover you will ever find. She is like the local shelter and takes in anything.

But on the IUI side i was exactly the same, hopefully 3rd time around its gonna be all real symptoms!

He actually has artificial lenses in both of his eyes. He went blind due to cataracts when is was about 4 years old. He lost his sight again last year around January but it bought him some good years.

He spends every day when I am at work with my mom. I have to drive by her place on my way to work anyway.

IUI stuff.... I am angry with myself. I have made a conscious effort to limit my caffeine intake. Everything I had read said limit to less than 200mg per day. I have been doing that. Now I am worried that I have affected my egg quality and jeopardized my chances.

 

[Tella]

So he is aging just like a human, getting contacts now and then glasses later

I dont take any caffiene, i might have the odd glass of Soda that might have some in it but it far less than 1 cup of coffee. I only drink rooibos tea since Jan. And the odd cappuccino when we out, but normally i will ask for decaf and that hasnt made a difference for me, so i wont beat myself up about it.

 

[Nicker]

Well I don't drink caffeinated beverages daily. Some mornings I will have 1 coffee or 1 tea. I know that is 140mg. If I drink soda I drink ginger ale. I guess all I can do is not have any now.

 

[froliky2011]

Hi ladies. I tested and BFN. I have a beta tomorrow but highly doubt I am pregnant. I stopped progesterone yesterday. IVF is most likely not necessary. I was just pregnant so we're trying again. Doctor said I just need to be patient. Maybe it worked out this way so DH would have to say something to his family? Who knows? On to #4. Good Luck to those in tww. Injectibles sound very promising! xoxo
