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

[Step Mummy]

Tella - good luck with the meds, hope this is the month for you!

L4Hope, great news about the swimmers, lets hope you have a champion swimmer in there who is going to get gold!

AFM: I am still here in the torture zone!!! Still no AF, I thought I had proper AF cramps last night and though OMG here it comes, but nothing - and they only lasted a few minutes! A tiny bit of discoloured spotting last night, but nothing like I usually get for 2-3 days before AF.

My temp is still a little high this morning, so thats an indication that AF will not be here in the next few hours at least! Arghhhhh! I was too scared to POAs this morning, didn't want to depress myself again, at least I have a little hope still!

 

[Tella]

Tella good luck to you too! I hope your doctors have found the right "cocktail" for you to get your bfp!!

I really hope it is my miracle cocktail and will bring a bfp!

Tella - you just get blood drawn for certai genetic disorders. You should talk to your doctor about it.

I will ask him at my CD3 scan

Soon we all will be bump buddies!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Step Mummy]

Ah would'nt that be fab - three lovely bumps!!!

I'll tell you the one thing that I am feeling that is a little different, this may be a little TMI but I feel like my cervix is heavy, a bit like when you have a heavy period and a tampax in there is ready for changing, like it's heavy and is making it ache a bit down there. I've had that on and off for the last few days. All so strange, I just wish I hadn't had the BFN on 13 dpo, because the FRER are supposed to be very acurate, so it should have picked up a BFP if there was one. Anyway I am only 15dpo today, so not hugely late. And I was a couple of days late on my first IUI, but then I had lots of my normal spotting for a couple of days which I have every month. So confusing!

Oh well only time will tell.

I hope that is a good thing, i have never had many symptoms so cant say. I understand but im still keeping my fx'd for you

 

[Chiles]

Yes bump buddies will be nice

I never did the symptom spotting cause it would just drive me nuts and end up with a bfn. Since I never ovulated on my own. And my cycle had been cancelled because I had to many follies I actually just forgot about ttc and was reading up on ivf. For june or july. I start having these cramps on and off like af was coming but she nevered showed. So then I was convinced that I had a uti or ohss. I went to pick up my bc pills, and 3 hpt. I took one, and a light line came up. Took the 2nd one and another line it was around 6pm that night. Took the 3rd with fmu and rushed to me RE to confirm it. I cried the whole way there. It finally happened. My RE wasn't too happy at 1st but when they only saw one baby it was okay. Lol!

 

[Step Mummy]

Sorry we are not going to be bump buddies

The old witch got me last night. I am really annoyed with myself for letting myself convince myself that maybe i was PG, you'd think after 3 years of experience I would know better. But I was convinced I felt different, but maybe that was down to this sudden heat wave we have had over the last week or so, (if you live in England you will know that the weather just increased from 10' to 27' in just four days, so it has been really hot)!

Anyway I rang the hospital to organise my next lot of drugs ready for day 3 injections, but I think they want to meet with me first for a review as we have now done 4 goes, but I hope not, because she said there aren't any free appts within the next few days. and I can tell you I am not wanting to wait and miss out another month again so they better sort something out!

Oh well, on we go with this never ending nightmare!!!

Sorry the witch got you last night It is such a hard journey but we all will get to our end goal

I hope they can make a plan and see you before day 3. I also had a CD3 scan before getting the ok to do injections. But my doc has dedicated time for those scans so never gets shown away and have to skip a cycle.

 

[drsquid]

I go for us tomorrow. Not reall cycle day 3 but I'm on lupron so I should not be growing anything (fingers crossed). The weird thing is I had a normal (but heavy period). Then thought it was gone... Then I noticed today I'm still getting a ton of brown yuck. Lovely. Hope it is gone by the ultrasound. I know They don't care but... Ick. Period was a few days late too. Perhaps to do with a bit of a lupron flare (started 10 days before expected af). Who knows.

[L4hope]

Drsquid is this your first injectable cycle? Will you be starting gonal f or Follistim if all looks good? If this tww ends in bfn I will be doing an injectable round starting with Lupron to supress. Not looking forward to all the shots but guess I would have to do that with ivf too so I better get used to it!

 

[drsquid]

I did an injection cycle with iui with gonal. This will be my first ivf cycle and I'm using gonal and Menopur.

 

[diliapickle]

Good Luck Dr. Squid!!

 

[AMP26]

I went in tonight for my cd21 bloodwork and scheduled my beta for Wendesday night so by this time next week we'll know if it worked or if we're moving on to injectables. Taking progesterone is definitely messing with my head. I feel pregnant but I know that it's probably jut he progesterone screaming! I'm trying hard not to get my hopes up too high but dh isn't helping because he keeps telling me I'm pregnant this time. If I do an hpt, it won't be until Sunday, but I'm going to try to hold out!

 

[diliapickle]

Good luck amp hope next week you are announcing your BFP!

 

[drsquid]

amp= good luck. progesterone is EVIL

all went well today.. start stims in the am. whee 3 shots a day. lucky me. oddly the worst is the medrol though. damn that tastes bad

 

[daydream]

GL AMP!! And yes that progesterone is a tricky beast. It was why I stopped SSing because I couldnt trust the reason behind how I was feeling!

GL drsquid! Cheering you on this cycle!

 

[Hopeful27yrs]

Probably a bit late to join this thread... triggered early hours of this morning and going in for IUI tomorrow - first cycle! Eek.. v.nervous and excited! can't believe we got here!!!!

 

[BabyOnMyOwn]

Good Luck Amp, FX'ed we will hear about your BFP next week!

Sorry about all the meds Drsquic but hopefully they do the trick!

Welcome hopeful, good luck this cycle!

AFM, I had my IUI Monday morning and started Progesterone the other night. This is the first time I have started progesterone so early so I am hoping it does the trick. I'm a little worried since I know implantation is a time to take it easy and I will be at a high school track from 10 AM tomorrow morning through 9 AM Sunday morning participating in Relay for Life. Not exactly a nice restful weekend.

Anyways, I hope everyone is doing well! Thinking of you all! )
