Iui November buddies?

[ttcbaby117]

I would start tonight or tomorrow and continue on through saturday as you DH SA was fine. I would only do every other day if there were issues with his SA.

Good Luck!

Hi everyone. Well, I met with my RE on Monday and got some bad news. I have a huge cyst on my left ovary that is suspicious for malignancy. I have a history of ovarian cancer and lost my right ovary six years ago so this is not good. I'm meeting with an oncologist today to discuss surgery. I met with a new RE yesterday that works with ovarian cancer patients. Our plan is to start a cycle of IVF asap so that I can get some eggs and have some embryos on ice in case I lose my ovary in surgery. So obviously I won't be doing IUI in November anymore but I will be cheering you all on from the sidelines. Crazy how much my life has changed in the past three days.

Hey Em...sorry to hear about this news....please let us know how it is all going.

 

[Cazmania]

Oh no Em - that is just terrible news, so sorry to hear.

 

[sadangel777]

So sorry to hear that, Em.

 

[sadangel777]

Is anyone else on Gonal F for trigger, and if so, have you had really sore muscles? My shoulders / neck hurt to the touch! I had my trigger on Wednesday.

 

[ttcbaby117]

sad - no I have never heard of that...maybe call your re and ask just to see what it might be.

afm - I am feeling impatient...I am on day 3 of the femara and want this cycle to just hurry up so i can get my bfp...LOL

 

[sadangel777]

Thanks; it went away thankfully! The weird side effects of fertility meds ...

I hear you, TTCbaby! I am in the 2WW but pretty sure I'm out since DH has been having this problem 'finishing' the job, and the day he did finish the job was 6 or 7 days before ovulation ... I hope some swimmers were still alive but I'm very doubtful. So I'm waiting for next cycle, round 4 of Clomid and round 2 with injections. Not going to start BDing until they give me the shot, since the first time is usually like clockwork and every subsequent time not so much. ...

I swear, in January (round 6 of Clomid) I'm going to have an IUI if he still has these problems and I don't have a BFP by then!!

Hi all! I just wanted to check in! Em I am sorry to hear that!

I have been lurking and not posting lol. I'm 9 days past my iui I haven't really noticed any symptoms that I can think of although anything that could be a symptom I'm saying it isn't incase my beta is bfn Saturday so I don't look crazy lol.

I hope everyone else in their 2ww is doing well!

TWW? Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock . . . . . why does it always have to drag by?

Hello ladies, how is everyone today?

So I had my first IUI today. Had one follicle at 19mm, all 3 layers of lining and tons of fertile CM, so doc decided to proceed with IUI today in anticipation of natural ovulation in the next couple of days. It is only cd8, so I hope it's not too early. Hubby sperm was 77 million with 70% motility. Our doc even let us have a look at them under the microscope and they looked good. Amazing to see.
I am continuing to use the cbfm and opk's which we are expecting to be positive tomorrow, but if it is late this month (I usually get a pos cd9) we will do another insemination then. Doc said all sign point to ov in the next 48 hours though. Fingers crossed.

Been cramping and spotting since the IUI - has anyone else experienced this?

Lindsay - how are you feeling? How did you find the IUI?

I am doing ok Caz thanks for asking! Trying not to symptom spot check but its hard. The IUI went well much quicker then last Month. I had tons of fertile cm and with my four follicles and my hubbys count I am hoping this month works! I did have cramping after the IUI and spotting that day which the nurse said was normal but I haven't had any since.

How are you doing Caz?

Seriously! Last week seemed to go by quicker for me because I was not at work. Now this is all I can think about! Hoping this week speeds up soon! How are you doing?

 

[wristwatch24]

Can I join? I will be having an IUI in November. Waiting for AF to show in the next week or so and then getting started. Good luck to everyone!

I also have been taking a break from BnB since about August, so I want to try to come back in for more support. All of my TTC buddies have gotten pregnant and communication has kinda stopped unfortunately, so I am hoping to make some new friends.

Welcome Wristwatch! How exciting! Are you doing clomid or injectables? And I am looking to meet new friends as well! I am currently on my 2ww after my 2nd iui. I am excited to see how yours goes!

Every month the tww gets longer and longer for me. Only a few more days for you though, right?

 

[Cazmania]

Welcome wristwatch, I was actually more of a bnb stalker than a participant over the last year and would always see your posts, I actually thought you had gotten your BFP as I didnt see you around anymore (makes me sound like a REAL stalker - ha ha).
Whats your course of action for IUI? I am doing 3 -4 rounds of unmedicated IUI before exploring other options (medicated rounds) as we too are unexplained (we have a son already)

Just Clomid for now, although when the fertility pharmacy called they said something about vaginal inserts?! I got sidetracked and forgot to ask her what that was, haha. I am also going to be doing the HCG shot. But I'm not doing the full injectables. If this doesn't work, we will move on to that!

Hahaha that's okay, I've been a stalker myself. I WISH I had gotten a bfp. We took a bit of a TTC break and for me that meant steering clear of the forums too. I just couldn't deal with it anymore! Now that we're getting back into the swing of things, I wanted to make my comeback lol
