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

Equal - I have a great feeling about your IUI this time. As far as IVF goes, its a really personal decision and one that IF you have to cross that bridge (and I am confident you wont ) that you need to discuss with DH and see if its something you both want to try. Either way, you WILL be a mom, and that in itself is amazing! My fingers and toes are crossed for you tightly!!!

Haj - hard to tell, I stopped temping because when I was in the 2ww, I would freak out about any dip or rise in my chart (because I am the queen of stress, haha). I wouldnt pin it as anything right now as temps can fluctuate above the coverline in the 2ww....just keep monitoring your temps and see what the pattern does for the rest of the week as I think then you will be able to solidify if it is or isnt an implantation dip Fingers crossed for you!

Frolick - I am hoping and praying that your beta comes out great. Keep us posted, ok? I have never heard of a vanishing twin, I have to google that! You learn something new everyday!

Drsquid, lemon, mama, fertile - how are you all?

AFM - I am 8dpiui and feeling ok. dull cramps yesterday and day before, not much to report now. Going to the RE on Friday for a blood test, so I am a bit nervous as I will only be 11dpiui but we shall see!

Jchic, I decided you're my voice of reason lol. i promised myself i wouldnt symptoms spot this month...clearly not working lol

 

[jchic]

LOL. I know, I do the same thing. I am having some cramping on and off so I feel like AF is imminent

We will get our BFPS Haj, dont worry, they are just making it hard for us, hahaha

cramps aren't always a bad thing!! How many dpo are you??

I know we will!!!

 

[jchic]

Im 8dpo today....they are basically on one side but higher up kind of....its weird. I hope its something because going onto Cycle 8 is depressing!
I think I am going to do one more IUI with injectables (going to ask for them) then a natural cycle then in May start IVF....thats my thought process right now

well 8dpo is a little early for AF cramps so fx its something else...yeah i know what you mean, I'm on cycle 6 and it has me so down in the dumps.

DH and I are going to meet with a RE on the 28th so we'll see what he has to say.

 

[jchic]

What is your plan with the RE? Do you want to continue IUI then move to IVF?

 

[haj624]

Honestly I'm not really sure yet. First off I want to make sure we like him and what not and I want to see what he has to say. I think we're going to do another IUI or 2 first

 

[siblingwishes]

Equal - I agree with the others that a doc cannot possibly comment on your treatment plan without ever having spoken with you!

Haj - I really hope that dip was a good sign! FXFX

Frolicky - Oh my, I pray that you get a good beta today! Miracles can happen! Have faith!

AFM - I am just very anxiously awaiting my first scan next Monday. I even POAS last night just to reassure myself! Seriously! Just with 4 previous m/c's I am finding it really hard to have 100% faith...I just need to see my little bean!

I cant wait to hear about your scan on Monday!! I hope its a good sign too but do you think 5dpiui is too early for a dip?

woooo hoooo!!! I'm excited!!

 

[froliky2011]

Gotta be quick.....Doctor scanned me and no beany in there and I am on to IUI #3 as soon as HCG levels go down to 0 and I start to ovulate again. I am feeling great though!!! I was not actually hoping for good numbers (in a way) because it probably wouldn't of been a healthy baby. This way we start fresh and hopefully get healthy numbers etc.

Gotta get to work. Now I can focus again.....

 

[jchic]

Frolick - honey, I am glad you are feeling good. You are going to get a BFP right away xx

 

[Nicker]

Holy shit! I have a 17, an 18, and a 23!!!!

Everyone cross your fingers that my donor sperm arrives tomorrow an I don't miss out this cycle.

 

[drsquid]

i am sure i will be unable to sleep tonight (assuming af does not arrive today) as i intend to testi n the am. i made the mistake of making bean soup yesterday (fabulous btw, and the first time i managed to simmer slowly enough that the beans did not turn into total mush). however today i have lovely cramps etc making me totally paranoid. fingers crossed

heh about back to back iui, i agree as far as ive read it doesnt really increase the results, the reason i mentioned it never even being mentioned to me is that clearly the doctor doesnt even consider it worth doing (as he is pretty thorough)

 

[Nicker]

Here's the scoop. I am supposed to get an injection today to make me not ovulate from the 23mm follie. I also do injects half dose of the Bravelle today and tomorrow so that the 17 and the 18 don't quit growing from the other shot. Hcg tomorrow morning IUI thursday. However. The pharmacy was out of the one med. They called as I was typing and said it is in.

yay nicker!!!!

[ellemar]

Nicker - That is fantastic!!! Those are about the sizes I had I'm sooo excited for you!!! Your sperm will come!!!

Equal - I agree with everyone else!!! A Dr. really shouldn't be making too many comments if they haven't even looked at your chart!!

drsquid - best best best of luck!!!!! EEEK!!!

siblingwishes - i can't imagine how you must feel, but I'm sending you all the best in your pregnancy!!

hmm...I've never heard of a vanishing twin either, I"ll definitely have to google it as well!

BEST of luck to all of us ladies!!!!!

So I am just beside myself.

I usually am checking the thread on my phone. I am an addict, I check whenever I have a minute or two. Replying is a pain sometimes from my phone. I am going to pull out the laptop and get caught up with posts ASAP.
