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

[Tella]

Dillia > GL with your TWW!!!!!!!!!!

Isela > Grow follies grow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

drsquid > Oh no, I hope you managed to find some!!! But I don’t think slightly different dose one day will make a huge difference just that your IUI might be moved on a day.

ash > that’s awesome response, especially not having lining issues. Hehe my DH was always petrified of twins but now he has accepted that but is scared of triplets, but im also!!!

kinerie > oh ok that makes sense, I would also not spoil the holiday. Fx'd for a bfp!!!! I don’t know about the botox either, I would definitely ask though!

bastetgrrl > Why milk? I have read it is bad for fertility but not sure why?

msw > We hope it is IB, chances of it still being spotting from the iui is very low. FX'd for a implanter!!!!!!!

AFM > Oh no, now I have one more thing to stress about, I have my nails done once a month with acrylic overlay on my own nail. Wonder if that is also a issue? But then on the other hand how many woman don’t even try to fall and fall whilst doing all of this, I find it had to draw a line at what is reasonable and whats not.


Otherwise not much to report! 3DPO and waiting

I was referring to the book "Skinny Bitch" and how disgusting the whole milk process is not anything fertility related.

A very dear friend of ours is a Vegan and she wants me to read that book but i read one page and decided that i would rather be ignorant than not enjoy my food. I thought maybe it also said something about fertility in there. I hardly consume milk since i read about it being bad, but i do love milk.

 

[Kinerie]

daydream - thanks! I'm really happy I responded well to 100mg also! I always wanted at least 3 follicles and that's what I got! =D

tella - I agree, twins would be nice but triplets ... I mean I would be happy and grateful don't get me wrong but I think it would do horrible things to my body especially since I'm tiny as it is. I really want to try and just keep it to twins! But at this point, my hands are tied!

AFM - last night after the ultrasound I was feeling horrible! I had muscle cramps and my ovaries were hurting really bad, I'm sure from the ultrasound ... I mean pressing on them when they're already swollen can't be good! Good news is, I'm really 99% better today! I didn't hear from my doctor yesterday so I must not have been surging so the plan is trigger tonight at 9 and IUI Tuesday morning at 9. OH and I are BDing of course just in case I ovulate before the IUI but I'm feeling good about it.

Ash, why do they ask you to trigger tonight them if IUI is Tuesday morning? This month (we have missed IUI) I have been told to do trigger on Thursday morning and come to the clinic Friday at 9pm..Wouldn't you be in (and up to) 36 hour window? Just don't want you to miss your surge...Good luck!!!!

Kinerie > If you are not having your natural LH surge you take 36-40hrs average to O after the trigger. I also trigger at 8pm and go two days later for IUI around 36-40hrs and i had O pains shortly after iui.

Ash > I had exactly the same pains after my US with my three follies, especially on the left where my 2 big ones was. GL wiht the injection and IUI!!!

 

[Nicker]

11dpiui still early busy weekend with family.

I could totally see how someone would/could be vegan especially after reading that book. "What has been seend (in this case read) cannot be unseen!!" YUCK! Milk and eggs were the two things in that book that freaked me the f*** out! I only eat egg sub anyway and milk was never something that I drank only used in lattes and stuff.

 

[Tella]

Nicker, fx'd for a bfp in the next two days!!! When is your Beta?

 

[Nicker]

Beta on Wednesday. I am still hopeful. I had a nasty headache yesterday. I was doing some reading and it seems that people who chart may notice an implantation dip. I don't chart so I have no clue if I am understanding this correctly. Such a dip on a chart would be caused by a surge of estrogen? Estrogen surges for sure give me a headache as I have noticed in my last two cycles of injectibles.

I have also quite a stuffy nose since about 8dpo with a fit or two of sneezing daily.

Last cycle my boobs didn't hurt once trigger was gone from sticks... this time they still hurt.

kyfx!!! I so want this to work!!!

Hi, Tella, thank you for clarifying this, I was going by what my clinic told me to do. This cycle I ovulated two days before my scheduled IUI, called the clinic, went the next day for US and the blood test which confirmed that I indeed already ovulated. We cancelled the trigger and IUI...

 

[Kinerie]

11dpiui still early busy weekend with family.

Keeping my fx for you Nicker!!

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Kinerie- if you are an early ovulater, they can give you something to suppress it until you are ready to trigger and IUI. Ask Nicker as she had it. My IUI was done the same way. I go for bloodwork daily from cd10, ultrasound every other day. If my follies are ready and no lh surge was detected in blood I trigger at 10pm and IUI at10 am two days later (36 hours) worked like a charm, as I am now preggers.

Nicker- I so want you to get your bfp this time. Are you still going to test the next few days or just wait for your beta? Ps I get headaches all the time now from hormones, hope it's a good sign for you.

Tella- I'm with you, I don't think I could read that book, it'd scare me too much and I'd end up living in a bubble due to fear. I think it's don't do things you flat out know are bad for you and things in moderation.

 

[drsquid]

im taking both the fsh drug (gonal f) and the suppressor (cetrotide). he started the suppressor sat am after my us and e2 results friday.

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Thanks drsquid, my brain wouldn't let me think of the name of that for some reason
So I assume you drove for your injectable?

 

[Nicker]

Hopeful - will test morning of beta (wednesday) for sure. Probably will test Tuesday and I don't know about tomorrow.

 

[Hopeful42nd]

I think that's smart good luck. Sending lots of positive vibes your way!!!!

 

[Nicker]

I have started a new thread that I am hoping will be come a great resource for other POAS addicts.

I am 11dpiui right now and I am fully aware that it is early to test. I know some get positives that early and others don't see a positive hpt before a positive beta even when they poas the day of beta. When we get to be 11/12dpiui, even though we know we are not out, we start to loose a little hope. We start googling and we find a thread which posts a situation EXACTLY like ours, but alas you never find out how it ends

The thread I created is to tell people how it ends. When you all get your (or if you are already preggers) will you add your stats to the thread for me? I will keep the first page there updated like I have this one.

[Nicker]

Hopeful of course I caved still negative today.

((tsk tsk)) It's still too soon.

I know. I know

 

[Nicker]

Oooh oneof14 - I'm jealous you get a CD 10 scan. I wish I was going in on CD 10 - I think I'm going to be ready EARLY.

As for lining issues, from what I understand, if lining is thin from clomid, taking supplemental estrogen (estrace) can help build it up (this is pre-trigger, pre-IUI). Progesterone doesn't make your lining thicker - it just changes the lining to be in a secretory state, which is how it needs to be for implantation to happen.

Learned something new re: the estrogen. My RE always says the progesterone suppositories will make a hospitable environment for implantation.

I am in my 36 hour window ... I have to trigger tonight and then go to the FS at 9 AM Tuesday, that's 36 hours I'm pretty sure ....
