July IUI, anyone?

Well I just got the call, my BETA was negative :cry: oh well, it is as I assumed, so I can't say as I'm that surprised. Looks like I'm on to August now.

Jen.. have you heard yet? What was your BETA? Sure hoping yours was :bfp:!!

:hug:

Alicatt - Crap, really? So sorry!!! :cry:
I was so sure you were going to give us some good news, your chart looks fantastic... guess just shows you I still have lots to learn about this TTC mess.

Ali, you won't be heading to August alone. BFN here too :cry:

So sorry Jen - I know how you feel, but let's just try to energize each other for the next cycle, and hope the August is IT!!!

I know.. I'm still at a loss for how my chart could look that great and give me a whopping :bfn: oh well, time to regroup and move on to August! Now I'm yelling at AF.. HURRY UP you old :witch: HEHE.
 
Alicatt & Jen1019: so sorry to hear about the BFNs, thoughts are with you gals I know it is not the news you want =( ...

Fisher -- too funny, we are lame too, my DH tells me all the time ... "you know you are TTC and older when you would prefer a good night sleep over DTD" ... we DTD 2x last week (1 being 2 nights before) and then nothing ... so we shall see

ILuvBabies: I am sorry that you are down. Easier said than done but try and stay positive. Many posts out there (since I have done my crazy research) show women turned out pregnant the 1 cycle they didnt have any symptoms and had given up hope. Hang in there
 
FYI, the cramps are all gone today and I am back to normal ... started the prog last night and no symptoms from that yet, so we shall wait and see ...

2DPIUI, and counting down to 8/3. 10 days to go ...
 
ALi, your chart looks great, Keep up hope! Its the month i wrote off my chart and my non symptoms i had fallin pregnant with my son ( all negitive test, only ultra soudn showed)

Greyhound, Moorebetter: 4 dp iui for me too so we are very close.. so far how are your symptoms doing? Grey you mentioned not a whole lot.. after the trigger shot wore off ( i am poas daily) I have felt normal... which is a bit annoying, I was a bit to active this weekend ( i knwo bad timing but we had famiyl in town with LOTS of young babies.. so i was holdign and lifting alot) and I am soar all over.. legs, back.. onyl symptom i have that unusual is the digestive thing.. everythign makes me bloat and gives me GAS! TMi sorry.. but i dont knwo if its the progesterone or not.. so i cant tell if its gas cramps or implantation.. btu i was up all night... OH! and i am peeing liek 3 times a night too! cant wait to test on the 31st!

KBrain: I likely see you over there DH had VERY low numbers this month and i feel its the 1st iui.. how coudl it work you know? .. best of luck next month!!! :hug:

Fisher: !!!:dance::dance: !!! Congrats!!! Keep us posted, your Betas soudn promicing that this is a sticky bean! :thumbup:

did anyone eat pineapple core this cycle? i started 1 dpiui.. its yummy.. but i hope it helps stick that bean.. we have had WAY to many losses


Me:31- PCOS
DH:32- Low everything!! on Fertilaid and Vit C

IUI #1
Clomid Cd2-7 Repronex 8-15
Cd15 1-23mm 1-17,
CD 15 Trigger
Cd 17 IUI 21Mil pre wash 9.8 Post wash, 58% motility 45% rapid, <10% Morph (strict) i only ovulated one egg, other now 21mm was "ready"
1DPiui mild cramps, soar nips, DTD
2DPiui smells, slight nuasea to sents, want to eat evrythign NOT on my diet, soar nips, DTD
3DPiui mild constipation, took miralax, cramps!!! soar nips, gas, went speed walkign for 5 miles - very tired!!!
4dpiui diareha, lump in throat all day like i am upset, soft tugging cramps by overy?? soar from walking!!?? ( usually run)

Bloodraven - My DH also had some issues on this IUI, even thought his original SA was through the roof. RE said that guys can have "off days", but does it have to be on the day that really counts? All I need him to do is to bring his swimmers to the party - I work hard all month long growing follicles, getting poked with needles, etc. :wacko: His post wash numbers were 9.5 million, with 100% on both motility counts. This is on the low side count wise, but not terrible according to the doc, so your numbers should be ok and you definitely have a good chance! Hope to not see you on the August board, and to see your :bfp: here soon!!!
 
Ali- I will be calling my RE shortly about August. He had said we are going to do the same thing- 50mg Clomid on 3-7, and the IUI. I might drink pomegranate juice as I have heard that it can help with the uterine lining. Has anyone every used Evening Primrose Oil? Was considering trying it this cycle, but that is to be determined.

Ali, didn't you mention trying an IVF drug this cycle? My RE said if August doesn't take, that we might be trying a more aggressive medication. Hopefully August is our month <3

Sounds like a plan. My FS doesn't like clomid because it can cause cysts (which I am prone to) and it thins the uterine lining. She wants me to try pergonal, I think I have that spelled correctly. It is used more for IVF patients, but she said she likes the way it develops nice healthy follicles, and she just lowers the dose for those that want to do IUI. She also said I'd be taking it from about day 3 through to ovulation, which helps keep the follicles growing evenly, and makes sure they are healthy. So, providing that AF comes in time for me to O before August 10th, we'll be doing a cycle in August. If not I'll have to skip August and move on to September when I get back to FL. So the question is, whether I should do a double IUI or not?

Sorry to hear about the BFN!!! As for the double, if you can afford it, do it!! I felt I had a better chance with a double versus just one attempt. I won't know until this time next week if it was worth it but I'd do a double again!

TTCinTexas - I did a double 2 months ago, and it was unsuccessful :( So this past month since I was traveling and not using any meds at all, I chose to do a single. I think the double helps, as it gives you one extra squirt up there ;) It also helps to make sure that you get the timing right. If you space them 24 hours apart, and hopefully Ovulate in there somewhere, it seems like it ups your chances! GL with your double this month!!! :hugs: :dust:
 
Hi ladies, I'm sorry to hear about everyone's BFN.

As of today, I'm 8 dpiui(well 7 and 8 since I had a double). I have been feeling slight cramping and tired and those random food cravings but nothing else. Not even sore bb's but maybe the progesterone is blocking that, I'm not sure. I have been POAS and getting faint positive's but I did ask my nurse today and she said it takes 7-11 days for a trigger shot to leave the system so the positives I've been seeing may be false...I hope not. I'll keep testing since I bought enough for the week, so fingers crossed that little pink line doesn't go away!!

:hugs: to those ladies that got a BFN!!! Wish I could make it all better!!
 
Alicatt and Jen - so sorry to hear about your BFNs. :hugs: So frustrating!
 
Hi Ladies I'm so sorry to hear about your BFNs, it's just not fair. I have everything crossed for you guys that August will be your month. I'm 7 days past IUI, 6DPO with shots every 3 days so no point testing for me. I'm off to the US this weekend for 10 days so I have to take the next lot of meds with me in case it doesn't work, as well as a couple of sticks to test out the final shot.

Congrats Fisher, am sending you sticky thoughts and GL to all those who are in the 2 year wait... it feels like 2 years for me anyway

It takes about 10 days for the trigger. So I would wait a bit. :flower:
 
ok ladies I tested at day 5 with a dollar store hcg test which is 25 MIU, to see if the trigger shot was out yet. It was negtive, took another one yesterday 8DPIUI and it was negative. Took another one of the dollar store tests this am it was negative. I read on here everyone uses the first response early result tests. So I got some on my way home tonight took one when I got home and have a very faint postive!! I'm 9DPIUI hopin the line is darker in the morning when I take another one. Nervous that this one could be detectecting traces of the shot. I read the first respone test is very sensative...What do you ladies think???????

First Response is one of the best tests! You'll know tomorrow if it gets darker!!! :) so you are 9 days past IUI...how many past trigger?? Mine is always out by 9-10 days.

Its is 11 days since trigger :thumbup:
 
I would say those are genuine but you never know! Good luck in getting some darker ones tomorrow!!! :)
 
9 days past IUI BFN But I know the trigger is out!!! 11 days past that... I so wanted to wait to test on Thursday. drrrrr.....
 
Well I'm only 6DPO, 7DPIUI but I think AF is arriving on Friday (2 days from now). I have a prolapsed bladder from my first natural birth which is only noticeably when my estrogen levels drop, and they always drop 2 days before AF. Not sure what is going on or whether my body is trying to tell me to stop the drugs. Back to the RE I guess.
