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

[ashknowsbest]

Well I just thought I'd update you guys. I'm CD 11 today, I go in tomorrow morning for my CD 12 scan to check follicles and then trigger sometime after that and then IUI 24 hours after trigger.

On a not TTC note, I got engaged Friday My OH asked me to marry him so I'm very happy and looking forward to wedding planning as it's exciting and it may get my mind off of TTC for a bit. Oh and we're still TTC , we don't plan on getting married for 2-3 years so plenty of time to have a baby still

I was away for my friend's wedding that I was in, and as always, seems like so much has happened!

Congrats Ash!

Chiles hope everything goes well with reduction and iui tomorrow!

Tella everything continues to sound good! Fingers crossed!!

Afm- As luck would have it my follicle matured just in time for my wedding weekend. Thankfully I could get through rehearsal and the wedding, but had to leave to come back home. I had one follicle at 20 on Friday morning, and possibly one other one that might catch up. I triggered Friday night and went in this morning for iui. Had 13million moving sperm. Go back in tomorrow morning for iui #2. This month they are putting me on progesterone suppositories since I did a combo of clomid and injectables. Not too excited about that but if it helps us get a bfp bring it on!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Yay L4! Glad all went well. The progesterone isn't too bad if you take it at night. When you find out you're pregnant you'll be on board for more weeks of the progesterone. Just one of the many reasons that I'm ready to be 12 weeks already.

Thanks! I would love to just take it at night but they are having me take it three times a day! Yes my doc did mention that I will stay on it once pregnant to help reduce the chance of m/c. After having one already I'm completely fine with that. At least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel for being done with it!

 

[L4hope]

Daydream just noticed you have your ultrasound this week. Good luck, hope everything looks perfect!

 

[daydream]

Thank you! I'm very excited!

Tella - yes, wedding planning is going to be fun but I already feel overwhelmed with it! Lol. Baby can be the ring bearer as long as it happens before we get married!

 

[DaisyQ]

[L4hope]

Tella, I had to look up PUPO! lol! I've gotten most of the lingo down but still run across ones I don't know! But yay! I'm really excited for you!! I'm not very familiar with the ivf process..how long is the wait after tomorrow? GL!!

 

[Hopeful42nd]

Congrats on your engagement Ash. Maybe something to take a bit of the limelight off ttc is just what you need maybe bfp will come sooner than you think

 

[diliapickle]

Congrats ash, that is so exciting!

Quick update on me had IUI today and ended up with 3.5 mil sperm which is not the worst and not best so we will see. Doc did say that since it is fourth time the success rate does go down so basically don't be too hopeful. So going to try and focus on work next two weeks and see what happens!

 

[L4hope]

Good luck diliapickle! I had my IUI today too and one tomorrow. Was your doctor saying that about 4th round of iui or the medicine? My doc said the same thing about 4 rounds of clomid. They were going to switch me to all injectables. Thankfully they gave me the choice of a clomid combination cycle with Follistim injections to save a little money. As far as your sperm count goes you should be okay. My doc told me that anything over 3 mil they don't see any change in pregnancy rates. Here's to a speedy tww with good results!!

 

[diliapickle]

L4 - thanks! Speedy TWW for you too! Hopefully we both see our BFPs at the end of it! Do you get a beta or at-home test? Do you know when you will test? I am going to try and hold out till the 10th and then unit again till actual test day of 14th. Oh and doc said 4th IUI the success rates go down I did clomid and bravelle with one gonal f this time and had one mature and one almost there that may also go so we will see!
