Haj & Baby - so sorry you saw those BFN's that is so heartbreaking! It could still be too early though so until you see AF don't count yourself out yet!

Nicker - awesome positive attitude! I really hope this is it for you!

ASM- had my follie scan today to check with the plan to trigger tonight but follies weren't quite ready yet so have to go back on Thursday to check again! was happy to see that I had one at 17mm but was just so ready to get a move on it and trigger and start the TWW! Oh well need the extra time for my lining as well so better to wait...

Its just so taxing. Good luck on Thursday!!

Haj - I could see the faint line on your dollar store test. But the FRER should have been positive...hmmm. Are you going to test again tomorrow with FMU? God girl, you must be out of your mind! I know I would be!

Nicker - I LOVE the positive attitude! You just might will yourself a BFP! LOL

I know I don't get it. I think I might just wait till I'm late because the BFN is ruining my whole mood and day

I'm 12dpo today and took a FRER this morning and got a BFN...I'm guessing yesterday was nothing. I literally just sat in the bathroom and cried this morning.

I am sorry hun. I know what that feels like, it is the absolute worse feeling...just remember that your BFP is right around the corner

I try to keep thinking that

I got a this morning as well. I'm sorry, I was really hoping yours was a !

I am so sorry for you. As a single teacher I know the boat you are in. $2000 is my cost per cycle. I would ask your re what he/she thinks about waiting 3 months.

Haj: I'm sorry.

Afm: I went for ultrasound today and have one follicle measuring at 15x17. IUI is planned for friday. Fx this is it. I am very hopeful. I keep telling people I will be due in November. I just have a good feeling about this.

 

[haj624]

Thanks Hun!! Good Luck with your IUI!!

 

[haj624]

I think I'm going to. But, her attitude has been to try three IUI's before thinking about other ideas. I might see if I do go ahead this month if we can up the dose of the letrezole (femera) because I think the dose I have been taking is low from what I have seen others are taking (2.5). I'm hoping that if we up it I might have a chance of more follicles. I'm so bummed today I don't know what I want to do anymore.

If your re said try three then I would do that. Perhaps up the dose. I only get three follies.

Then we're both nuts!

You're thinking me or you're thinking yesterday worked for you?

I'm thinking the same as you are............i'm really positive that this will be the cycle it happens. The specimen for today's was very good. fingers crossed they find the egg.

Morning all! I tested this morning and got a . My question now is do I still start taking the progesterone my Dr prescribed yesterday? I have a call in but with my class getting here soon I know I won't be able to talk to them until after school.

I'm so unsure of what to do. My acupuncturist would like me to wait another 3 months before trying again to let all she is doing (supplements and acupuncture) to start working. I am so afraid to do that! With the diagnosis of DOR, I just feel like I don't have much time. On the other hand, if it would give it a better chance of being sucessful it might be worth thinking about. This is so expensive to be doing with my insurance covering NONE of it and me doing it on my own (on a teachers salary no less). UGH!!! I was so hoping this month worked.

I gave acupuncture a try for 5 months.......I feel better both emotionally and physically. I began to see good signs immediately but after 1 month, after my period with acu - I noticed it! my period was different, better, brighter, longer, no cramps, no mood swings. My circulation is a hell of a lot better now.
hope it helps you too. good luck.

Hi Dolls~
I have been following this thread religiously, and I thought it might be time to jump on!
I will be going for my second IUI here soon, any day now. We have tried one prior, but unfortunately, it ended in a BFN. I do believe it was just not the right time and thats why it happened that way. I do feel a lot better after taking a couple months off and really focusing on myself. My first IUI seemed to be high stress, a lot of testing, which I know all you girls can relate. I was taking femara, and what not, and for whatever reason, it just was not the right time for me
Since then, we have switched insurance providers, and thus, RE. This time seems a lot different. DH(mostly) and I have decided to try unmedicated cycles, and while usually I am a control freak, this time I'm taking a backseat. We are unmonitored other than ovulation testing, and it has honestly, been a lot less stressful. The first time it was so discouraging knowing everything, and it was still unsuccessful, this moment, it's up to God and Mother Nature, and honestly we can try to skew it in our favor, but ultimately it whill happen when it's supposed to happen, so I am taking the best care of me and sending the energy out there that Im so ready to be a mommy. Fingers crossed

Does that mean you are PUPO?

Jacquelyn - welcome and good luck!

Hi BabyOnMyOwn (me too!!)
I am too doing 3 cycles of donor IUI first - for starters... my clinic sells "3 for the price of 2" package for treatment + sperm (they are also a major UK sperm bank) and their statistics show that it takes 2.6 attempts on average to conceive via IUI (for those who do of course).... Fingers crossed!
The next step will be "IVF Light" (with no/little drugs)...
Best wishes to you,
BlueBird

I've been PUPO before and it totally broke my heart when AF came. I think I just want to be really calm and really positive for the next 2 weeks.
OMG, it must be the trigger but I had a crying session today. Out of nowhere and i had to make some chamomile tea and lie down for a bit. feel better now but i feel like a ticking time bomb.

We did our first IUI in Feb and will be doing our second in March. Looking for some ttc buddies.
