Bastet- I'm 9 dpiui but am thinking this round will be a bust bc I don't really have symptoms yet. Have you had any symptoms?

Everyone is completely different. Some women never have symptoms so don't lose hope.

I've had what could be symptoms however I am also on progesterone so never know if they are real or not.

Bastet- I think it's fine, it's just hard to believe the first few days, just take a test each day and watch your line slowly darken, once you have a few beside each other your will believe it, then it'll be bloodwork time! I took another one same day just to make sure the first wasn't a fluke. So long as it showed in the time limit or before, your usually good!

Nicker- I like the plan. Maybe the few months off is just what you need to feel healthy minded again. It's rally taxing on everything. I'm sure next round will work. You know what you respond well too and what to keep doing in the meantime. It's just going to work out.

Daisy - sounds pretty good for timing! Good luck!

I am just scared I won't have eggs left.

 

[daydream]

Congrats Basket!!! Hopefully there will be a few more of us joining you in the next few days!

I am just scared I won't have eggs left.

Oh hun, don't stress yourself about that. There are SO many out there that are the same age and go on to have babies well into their 40s. I know someone that was either 38 or 39 when she conceived her daughter. She is also single and used donor sperm.

 

[Nicker]

I just discovered something I wish I knew in February. I knew my sperm bank guarantees 25 mil/ml. I was not aware that meant 25 mil/ml motile! IUI #2 only had 7 mil/ml motile. I would have had to complain within 30 days though.

Oh crap! Is there anything that you can do about it now? Call them and complain?

I edited.... It is 25 mil/ml motile!!!! Had to complain within 30 days...

 

[bastetgrrl]

Oh sh*t, that sucks!!

 

[drsquid]

which bank is that nicker? in addition to progression problems the count was only 6.6 million on mine which is better than who requirements but pretty sucky for donor sperm. i get 4 free vials from a different donor next go but.. almost wish i could just get the cash but i cant prove any sample other than the last one was crap.

 

[Nicker]

Xytex.

My counts have been
IUI #1 98.93 Mil/ml - 59.7 Mil Motile (60%) - 11.3 Mil Progressive
IUI #2 30.64 Mil/ml - 7.4 Mil Motile (24%) - 1.7 Mil Progressive
IUI#3 43.80 Mil/ml - 29.0 Mil Motile (66%)- 4.5 Mil Progressive

 

[bastetgrrl]

WTF How do they get off giving you with numbers like this? Wouldn't they offer only the super

Haha... Well IUI#1 and IUI#3 were up to standards. My doc didn't think they were bad. We weren't happy with IUI#2. I just wish there was a guarantee on progressive vs non-progressive.

I have read of others having consistently lower donor sperm counts than I got.

 

[bastetgrrl]

Yeah there should be a guarantee or something.

Geesh...you're kidding?! That's pretty upsetting.

 

[diliapickle]

Congratulations bastet! That is so awesome! yay! Hopefully the rest of us in the TWW are not far behind!

 

[AMP26]

Yay Bastet!!!!!!!! So exciting! I was feeling a little down and now your news has me smiling from ear to ear!!! Congratulations!

Well I have no self control and POAS this morning too. DH is annoyed with my early testing but he can shut it. There was a very extremely light, not-photographical ghost line. Nothing to celebrate over but something to keep my fingers crossed that it will darken by Monday morning when I use the FRER. DH saw it as well so I know I'm not just seeing things.
