Hi ladies went to lab and got blood drawn ... Waiting for the results in a few hours!!
Ahhhh can't wait!!!!
Ahhhh can't wait!!!!
I didn't test today as I ran out of cheap tests and didn't want to waste my expensive digitals lol. I will test tomorrow morning although I just saw a bit of blood mixed with CM. I doubt it is implantation spotting so late but you never know. Will let you know tomorrow morning. If it's negative I will be ordering drugs and scheduling ultrasound. It will be one busy week before vacation! On the bright side, I am watching early preview of the hunger games on Wednesday so I am excited about that

Hey ladies - just finally finished reading through the entire blog. Wow - lots of ups and downs for us all.
Also just realized I never gave you my story - not that you necessarily want it - but here it goes:
I am almost 36 (December) Hubby just turned 35. We have been together 16 years but just got married last August. Started ttc last November after I ran a marathon. A lot of nothing happened - other than symptom spotting and a couple of late cycles - all BFNs. Started getting tests done in August and learned that I am ok (although a few of my numbers were on the lower end of the spectrum) and hubby has low count, motility and morphology. We were referred to the specialist and actually had the 1st appointment the day after my period started (lucky!) He did a scan and blood work and I started clomid the following day. I took clomid day 3-7 and went in for the US day 10. At that time I had a 26 and 22 on the left side and nothing on the right. They had me trigger that night and come in for the IUI on day 12 in the AM. I was very crampy the day of the IUI into the following day. So things are moving quite quickly now!
I have not really had any symptoms - had some light cramping off and on last week - but on the right side - is that weird since the follicles were on the left? But nothing since Friday. Today is 11dpiui and I am a bit gassy - but it could be what I ate. Trying to hold off testing until Thursday - 14dpiui - the day the doctor said to test - but might test tomorrow morning just to get it over with...
Anyways - anyone hear from Jaan since the last big storm?
Hatethewait - FXed the IVF works. Our plan is to try IUI (covered by insurance) a few times before moving on to IVF (not covered by insurance). Glad the numbers are looking great!
Nola - definitely want to hear about tomorrow's ultrasound!!
ttcmoon - hope this is your cycle...
lamago - I had hubbys bday the day after the IUI and asked the dr if I could have a drink (or two) and he said it was fine. Have not had anything to drink this week though - but have heard you don't really start sharing nutrients for a couple of weeks. Have you tested (I might have missed it)?
Curni - yay for exam room 5!! FXed this is it!
Samoorah - congrats again...
Kaylan - you are not out yet - enjoy Hunger Games!
Everyone else - FXed!!

kaylen- Knowing when to stop the progesterone is definitely hard to know. Did you get any advise from your doc? And I am super jealous that you get to see catching fire early!!! I never go to movies but am thinking of going this weekend as a treat for surviving the stims!
gingmg-
So sorry to hear about your cyst. That is frustrating!! I found my month off activly ttc very good for the soul so hopefully it is a goodd time to get rejuvenated and relaxed for a good December!
Kismet- Thanks! What's new with you? Did you get everything lined up to start IVF this month?? Update please!
Moni- That was lukcy that you had your first fs appointment timed well!! I'm not sure about the cramping on the other side though. Good for you for trying to hold out on testing. I always caved at 10 and 12 dpiui. Stay strong!!
River- Hope the well-timed BD gets you a sticky lil bean! Fx the tww flies by!
Summer- Good luck testing on Saturday. Hope the
stays far far away!!
Curni- You've got some good looking follicles fast! Did you ask for exam room 5 or did you just get "lucky?" What cd are you on? I have heard there is some concern with quality if follies mature too quickly but tbh I'm not sure what "too quickly" is. I'm surprised he didn't lower your dose but perhaps your estradiol levels are right where they need to be? I wish I had some suggestions for how to slow down things naturally.
Hopefully things look excellent on Wed. Keep us updated!!
Samoorah- Yay for blood tests! Any news on the results??
I'll be back tomorrow with an update. Hopefully with fabulous news that it will not be a freeze all cycle but I am not too optimistic.
Definitely starting to feel bloated now! Hopefully that means all my follies are getting nice and big!
Sending lots of
to everyone!

Congrats Samoorah!!
AFM - No testing tomorrow for me - I was going to flip a coin to see if I wait or not and checked the FRER box and it was empty - I must have used it and just not thrown out the box. ugh. I'm taking this as a sign and waiting until Thursday!! There is no way a clear blue digital would test this early right?

The ones with conception indicator might 
I know, I'm a bad influence. Lol. Hcg should be around at least 50 by 12 dpo and the cb register at hcg 25.

Yay samoorah!!!!
AFM, I am on the pre-IVF birth control pills. My CD3 blood work showed FSH went way down - yay! I had a 14mm follicle but they said the bcp would make that go away.
We have our pre-IVF consult with the Dr on Thursday to go over the treatment plan. I can't wait to understand what we are doing and when.
Still praying we will have time to finance the IVF. The financing company needs the treatment plan and the Dr won't send it until we've reviewed it together. We had to make a real fuss to get in this week. She was originally not free until the 26th. We never would have been able to do the Dec IVF with so little time to get the $ together. If only we had it in the bank, I'd be so happy. The uncertainty is killing me!
