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

[notoptimistic]

thanks to everyone who suggested bloodwork ..I'm now going to have to call up clearblue easy and let them have it. I am not surging yet. The smiley face shouldn't have been there and that ovulation test was from the same kit I used last cycle. Maybe that's why my iui failed and I had a three week luteal phase.

 

[L4hope]

So glad you were able to get the bloodwork. It's not uncommon for OPK's to give false positives. Don't ask me why, they never worked for me. My doc has to monitor my follicle growth with ultrasounds and then confirm with bloodwork. Something to consider if the OPK's are not working properly for you.

 

[notoptimistic]

L4hope - clearblue easy basically asked for my medical history ... they seemed to think it wasn't possible to get a false positive. They are sending me a free kit. They should also probably reimburse my insurance company (not that my insurance needs the money) for paying for last cycle's iui based on their faulty opk. Anyway, I'm going to be going in for daily blood tests now until I get my actual surge.

 

[L4hope]

Good I'm glad to hear they are sending you a new kit. Hopefully it was just a faulty kit and the new ones work for you...or better yet you get your bfp this month and don't need them!!

Went for us today. Maybe a 12mm follie not real clear. Told him my plan for the 11th of June and discovered that apparently I can't do both. So I've decided to bag this cycle and go to ivf. They are gonna call me back today or tomorrow with the plan in terms of meds etc. kinda
Bummed that it is still a month and a half from now but... It is my best (and fastest) bet. Once I start the new job in July I don't know what my schedule is going to look like and the doc is going to the amazon for the last 3 weeks of July. Upside is that at least I'll be taking lots of meds so I'll feel like I'm doing something.

I'm pretty excited to try this IUI thing!! I am on CD5 - third day of 100mg Clomid! Luckily I feel totally normal so far. Ultrasound scheduled for May 9th. I wonder how many follicles are expected?
My DH has pretty low Normal sperm, 1-2% , so me might have to do IVF. Does anyone have and success stories from similar situations?
Anyone else doing an IUI this month??

Wow that's crazy. I don't trust OPK's much, I was always monitered with daily bloodwork, and every other day ultrasound. Can't your doc do daily blood to find out when you surge instead. It's more accurate

 

[notoptimistic]

Hopeful- I'm going to do daily blood tests from now on until I get my real surge. Unfortunately I probably won't get the surge for another week bc I usually ovulate late.. Lots of blood tests in my future!I'm just upset that the last Iui was timed based on what was probably a false positive . Same kit. Also, I was so tired last cycle from long commutes because my job just moved that my hubby and I had sex the night of the Iui but didnt have any sex after that so I had no chance.

 

[fertilesoul]

We transferred 2 embryo's today, 1 blast and 1 morula. I don't have any frosties but I won't need them, this is my bfp and I must just wait 8 days to confirm

Woot, woot! Congrats on being PUPO. All this time waiting and you finally get to see that elusive second line in 8 days. I am so super happy for you. Can't wait to hear your updates!

 

[AMP26]

[Nicker]

I am officially going crazy waiting to get the show on the road!! I am sorry I have been MIA. I have not had time at my computer in what feels like forever. I have been trying to read posts on the fly on my phone, but I haven't been to great at that.

I am going trying to get the first page caught up right now... Not so easy. LOL. I have one person updated....

 

[Nicker]

I did the best I could with the first page. I don't want to leave anyone out. Let me know if I missed anyone.

Tella - I am so excited for you!!!

rbtrying - Congrats. You must have been so shocked. I am glad you didn't need to go the IUI route

Mommymel - What is the latest scoop?

Ash - Congrats on the engagement!

Hopeful - How is the pregnancy going? Ultra sound soon?

Chiles - How was the reduction? Did the IUI go on Monday?

Daydream - How are things going so far?

Everyone in the tww and waiting for the next round

AFM - Waiting bites the big one. I will try not to be so neglectful of the thread in the future.

 

[daydream]

Nicker - you've been the best at maintaining this thread. Your hard work is always appreciated. Don't stress about it.

I'm doing alright. Have been struggling with nausea and resulting anxiety from not being able to work and get things done. Today my dr called in a rx for zofran, which seemed to help a little today. I was able to eat more. Yesterday was pretty miserable: just ate crackers and sipped water. I'm ready to be functioning again. My scan is Thursday though, so I'm very excited for that.

Good morning Ladies,

i hope all is good.....

Tella > everything looks good for your twin BFP..... rest well while you are still on holiday,,,, your beans are very busy snuggling in...... forever beans....



AFM > IUI#2 was a BFN,,,,,, Hubby and I have discussed it and decided to go straight for IVF during June cycle (my next cycle.)
when af showed up it was a little stranger than normal,,,,, 2 day of full flow, then nothing on cd3, then cd4 was very thin watery (sorry tmi )
i seem to have cramps today on cd5 ????
anyways, my fs is okay with the fact i am going straight for ivf,,,,,,, so i am happy,,,, and he is offering me a great deal package..

maybe i can be as lucky as Maria and discover that i have a BFP a week before my procedure,,,, lol ....
