Hear- that's great news! I never really like the triggers either they always make me really bloated and my ovaries feel like they are 100 pounds each - doesn't really make you feel *sexy* lol. That is great that you can go and have them check to see that you ovulated. Keeping my fingers crossed!

 

[HearMyPrayers]

yes I agree! There is nothing worse than trying to feel "sexy" when your sweating for no reason from the clomid, your dizzy, tired, anxious, cramping, bloated, depressed and happy all happening within 60 seconds of each other all day every day lmao! I dont know how are DH's do it some days!

We bd'd twice last night. DH was being lazy the second time around and tried to get out of it but I got so emotional I started crying saying we are trying hard enough and blah blah! how sexy right! lol

 

[wishinforbub]

hear, that sounds like a technique I would employ Yay for bd'ing!! Keep us informed on the follicle progress won't you...

I'm so glad I'm not the only insane one when it comes to listening to the bloody news articles about Will and Kate. You're all wonderful women xx

 

[curlygurl]

LOL! Whoa 2 times?! I can barely muster enough energy for 1 time...not to mention sometimes its hard for my body to get going...we have had to use preseed the last 2 times...ugh any other time of the month I am ready to go --- except o time! I think I get myself so stressed over it. I have to relax a little more.

I have to say here in the states - literally all I hear on the news is about Will and Kate - its a totally different country! Its bad enough we have to hear about our ridiculous american actresses getting preggo now we have to have international bump watches! UGGGH

Hey girl! so we twice tuesday once last night and this morning I went to check if the follicle released the egg.....and it hasn't yet! UGH!! its 23mm so I decided to trigger back to more tonight and tomorrow and back Saturday to confirm ovulation.

So since you triggered today - when will you ovulate? Tomorrow? I forget how long it it supposed to take. We have bd every night since Monday - I think
i should have O'd by now, but I think we will probably BD again tonight just to be sure. After so many times, it starts to feel like a job. LOL. So did you trigger already, or tonight? 23 is a good size!

 

[wishinforbub]

sounds like there's lots of BD'ing going on!

I had my followup today. Doc said that the fibroids aren't causing problems (they're all on the outside), tubes are all clear, and uterus is too. He's putting us on a waiting list for IVF, but suggested in the meantime we could try IUI.

Would love any advice if you have any....

From what I read and what the doctor told me is its 12-36 hours after the trigger you will ovulation. So I'm thinking if we BD tonight, tomorrow Saturday AND Sunday we should REALLY cover ourselves then!

I think you should just give it one more go tonight for good measure! It does start to feel like a job I agree so I'm thinking of spicing it up a little even for myself! gets a tiring lol!

Oh I'm excited for us we will be in the 2ww together!

for nothing stopping up your chances!

I've yet to experience IUI but from what I've researched you take the clomid on prescribed days, then they trigger you to ovulate that do a sperm wash with DH's and get his best little solidiers and then insert them directly into your uterus placing them right by the eggie! Not as invasive as IVF from what I've gathered!

Thanks!! I don't think it is going to happen tonihgt, I am about 98% sure that I o'd already, my cm has changed back to sticky, so I think that means its done.

I am so glad that we can share the 2WW!

Wishin - I did IUI 3 times it was really very easy. The first one I did I got pregnant but lost it early. I took clomid for 5 days, then they monitored my follicles by ultrasound, and once the doctor saw it was ready I triggered, and then the insemination usually followed 2 days later. For example I would trigger monday night and have the insemination Wednesday morning. Doesn't hurt, and usually lasts like 1 or 2 minutes -- it is literally that simple. After they inseminate, you lay on the table for between 5 and 15 minutes, and then they usually tell you to test in 14 days or have you come in for a beta. I would honestly try it before you go into IVF. It is very simple, not as invasive, and the drugs are pretty mild, and it is MUCH CHEAPER! I would definitely give it a try. IT didn't work for me because of the endometriosis (which we didn't know about then).

The only cons I would say are the clomid can have side effects, like hot flashes, and for me I usually had a few follicles on each side, so my ovaries would feel very heavy, and the very slight cramping right after the insemination. Other than that it is a breeze! Good luck!!

Thanks for the advice Curly, it's much appreciated. I think we've decided to keep trying naturally until about March, and then go for the IUI while we're waiting for the IVF. And lets just see what happens, I guess

Hey ladies I'm 2 dpo today got the trigger shot thursday and more than positive I felt the egg friday. We've bd'd thursday and twice friday and once last night. I had my ovulate check yesterday morning they confirmed ovulation! Now the dreaded two ww! How is everyone else doing??

Oh hear, I got everything crossed for you! Me and DH will be BDing over the next few days, I'm due to ovulate around Tuesday. Here's to happy BDing and BFPs!

 

[curlygurl]

I am not 100% sure when I ovulated, but I got a positive OPK last monday, so at most I am 5 dpo, or 4 dpo. I have just had sore boobs since Friday not unbearable, but I am hoping it doesn't mean I am out already! Hoping for BFPs for us all!!!

 

[HearMyPrayers]

Curly - sounds promising! I have some serious bloating going on right now @ 2 dpo not sure if its the trigger shot or what but its brutal and slight crampy too. Twinges on the right side. Again could all be clomid/trigger side effects.

 

[HearMyPrayers]

4 dpo and this morning I had pinkish blood in discharge and there was A LOT of it andAF cramps like I was going to start my period at that very second, they last for maybe 2-3 mins then stopped. The discharge is still there slight slight pink but hardly noticable. I have NO IDEA what to make of this! My lower back is killing me and I have dull cramps. weird.

A lot of blood or a lot of discharge? Could it be implantation?!!! Fingers crossed it is!!! Maybe it could also be from all the BDing you have been doing? But lower back pain, dull cramps and the pinkish blood sounds REALLY promising!!!!

AFM I guess I am 6 or 7 dpo, still have the slightly sore boobs, and that would be it. LOL. I have been sneezing a lot, and seem to have a perpetual runny nose but it could be because I had my flu shot last week. I have been eating a piece of pineapple core...maybe an old wive's tale but it supposedly helps with implantation. I really hope this is it!!! I have decided to wait to test when I miss my AF and not before - I don't think I can handle the disappointment of seeing another negative test.

I hope we all get our Christmas wish!!!!

Hey girl it was a lot of discharge with pinkish blood in it....sorry TMI but it was thick whitey. I'm so not trying to read into it. I'm already obsessing so much!


Ohhh your symptoms sounds very promising!! I'm sooo holding hope that this is our month!

It sounds promising!! But I totally understand how you feel. It is so hard not to obsess. I wish I could step out of my body for the TWW so I wouldn't have to feel all little twinges, etc. that make me think I am pregnant.

I do remember that one month I did have what you are explaining but it was like right after I O'd...my doctor told me that sometimes ovulation can cause a little spotting. So in the interest of not reading into things, it could be just that.

I really hope that this is our month. I was on my lunch break before, and I was thinking that this has to be it. It HAS to be our turn.
