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

[KISKA777]

Hi ladies,
I wanted to ask a questiokn, and I am not sure if this is proper forum.
I had a shot of Novarel, and I tested it 2 days ago, showing pregnant... Obviously it is still the shot - I am 6dp iui, and I wanted to know how long this shot stays inthe system... thank you.

 

[diliapickle]

Kiska - each person is different as it depends on your metabolism and how much you took. When I did 10,000 it wasn't out until 10days past trigger and when I did 5,000 it was out by 7 days past. Good luck that you see a real (non trigger!) BFP soon!

Ugh, babyonmyown. Please forgive my idiocy/ignorance.

Good luck dilia!

So I had my ultrasound done today.
Baby is great measuring a week ahead but she said this is one of the lease accurate times to measure for size as they stop crown/rump and start using circumference...anyways my due date is still oct 7th.
Two arms, two legs, giant head, full face, nice steady heart rate, all looks great. Go for the second US part on May 16th to find out for sure the results and for gender scan. Before that I go for bloodwork again in late april. the great news about the next ultrasound is they use regular and also show you in 3D! Should be super cool!

Here is the pic she gave me, which she had way better ones, but beggers cant be choosers.

 

[DaisyQ]

Awww, what a cutie!

Hopeful, what was the timing on your IUIs

Oneof14, a discussion of IVF sounds good. We are going in to see the doctor during my 2WW wait as well to discuss next steps. I may do IVF next, or do a natural cycle, then a injectable, then IVF. We'll see what he says.

 

[Hopeful42nd]

First pregnancy was 24hrs after natural lh surge detected from bloodwork. This pregnancy was 36 hours post trigger shot. And thank you for the compliment.

 

[DaisyQ]

Thanks lady!! OH I CAN'T WAIT! I just want to be preggers already!

 

[Hopeful42nd]

I hear ya, it's such a long road and do frustrating, but keep at it! It'll happen for you!

 

[oneof14]

Hopeful, how cute!! how are you feeling??

Daisy, I am praying this IUI works, but this will be our 3rd and we thought about injectables, but honestly, I'm no spring chicken and I think IVF would be best. Of course I will see what the doctor has to say. My hubby usually travels a in May/June, sometimes an entire month. So we will have to see how that plays in as well.

I am just checking in to say Hi!!
I had my 2nd IUI last month which resulted in BFN and I have decided to take a break for a couple of months. Me and DH are still deciding if we should go for IUI#3 or IVF but I read that you ladies feel that IUI#3 should be the way to go. I am just confused because insurance doesnt pay anything and everything is out of pocket. Oh, well I have a month or so to decide.
Congrats to all you ladies who have a BFP and to everyone in the TWW.

What a cute little perfect baby

 

[DaisyQ]

I hear you oneof14. I am anxious to get the ball rolling as well. I know I'm a couple years younger, but I'm starting to really worry about my age.

Part of me wants to move forward with IUI #3 with injectables because the injectable IUIs have the greatest rates of success and I want peace of mind that I did three IUIs to maximize my chances for success with that method. But part of me just wants to move on to IVF already. Another factor is timing with us too. If we do IVF next, I think we can start the cycle after this one. If decide to do one more IUI with injectables, then I'm going to have to sit out at least one cycle, maybe 2, because of travel. And I am impatient girl. I have a feeling we will go with the third IUI with injectables, but I'll let you know what my doc thinks. xxoo Hang in there.

 

[drsquid]

daisy- the upside to doing a round with injections is you at least know how you respond. so it isnt wasted time if it doesnt work

 

[oneof14]

My thoughts exactly Daisy. The problem too is I dont love my doctor, I feel like hes so paranoid about other things, like I tested positive for the cyctic fibrosis gene, my hubby negative and he made such a BIG deal about him getting tested for 32 more mutations of the disease, which by the way ended up negative. I was like is this necessary?!?! I feel like he should be concentrating more on why I'm not getting pg. I want the entire process to be over already. The office is so convenient to our home and its easier for us to make the appt's then come to work. To research another FS seems to exhausting to me, as I am already mentally exhausted!

The thought of being intimate and getting pg is beyond me now. Some woman dont know how lucky they have it not to have to go through such a sensative processes with doctors, techs, nurses, rather than your own husband!! I am frustated and scared and sad and I have no answers, as many of us!!

Wow, that felt good to get out.. lol.. sorry for the rant!!

 

[daydream]

Hi ladies, wanted to join in as I just had my third IUI this morning. We did 150iu of gonal f CD3-CD8. I went in for my u/s on CD9 and had three follicles ready to go. Triggered Monday evening and had the IUI this morning at 36 hours after.

This is my first gonal f cycle, and I hope it's what we need to get our BFP!

GL and to the other ladies with their IUIs today. I've been crampy ever since, I guess ovulating three eggs is hard work! But I'm relieved because we got the timing just perfect!

 

[unaspenser]

I expect to start IUI next month, waiting to hear back from our doctor about the specifics.

 

[drsquid]

daydream- fingers crossed for you. this is my first gonal cycle too

Love it! It truly is amazing that just 12 weeks ago that was the cell the size of a pin head.

Thank you so much for continuing to share with us hopeful. If I do manage to get pregnant I plan on sticking around here too. I guess I am obligated to, I have to maintain the first page. I am not sure if I can keep it up though with the growth of the thread.
