Ashley-thanks hoping this cycle is the one for me.

Today is cd12 and also today is my follicle scan I got to leave out here around 10am so in 3 hours, I will be heading to my appt. Well thats after i drop my friend off to her appt. Im hoping to get good news during the follicle scan. Hoping for 2 or more follies to be labeled as mature. Last night, dh and i finally tried the preseed. I wanted him to be a part of this process in every step of the way. So i was able to put the lubricant inside the applicator for him and then i laid down and let him insert the preseed vaginally. I think it made DH feel good because he was helping out. I must say the preseed is amazing!! I see why women get pregnant afterwards His semen usually comes out somewhat even after laying down for 15 mins but this time, nothing came out. Only some of the lubricant So now we have to refrain from sex today and then IUI tomorrow Im really hoping that this cycle is our bfp cycle. But will have 2 weeks to find out..even though im pretty sure i will be testing before im 14dpo

yaaayyy!! I hope the scan goes well!! When me and DH were actually trying the first time I remember the month of nov 2011 we dtd practically every other day, which I've heard is the best way for some reason


Here is my 29 week and a bit bump

Arrgh i cant see the pics quick post but patrice when i got pregnant both times i noticed that nothing came out after dtd! So fx'd this is it for u! Its a good sign!

 

[hello_kitty]

Fingers crossed for you patrice. Like jo said, nothing coming out afterwards is a good sign.

Nice bump Ashley.

 

[magicwhisper]

i will have to take a bump pic

 

[mzswizz]

lovely bump pic Ashley!

Thanks ladies for the insight on when you ladies became pregnant. Cant wait for bump pics!!

my scan went great. I ended up with 7 follies They were all in my left ovary which would makes sense on why i have been cramping on my left side My doc says looks like we've got an octomom on our hands But he was thinking that either 1 or 2 may release but he said but then again they all might release so who knows. I did get my trigger shot today at 12:45ish and DH and I will be going in tomorrow at 7:30am to do the IUI. My doc told me i can come in at 7:30am Also, he will tell dh his SA results. So fxed that this month is a bfp. Everyone keeps saying this cycle is my cycle...even my friends here and i am realllllyyyy hoping and praying right along with them that this is it. I asked the doc how long does the trigger usually lasts and he said around 7-10 days and you should ovulate within 36 hours no later. So let's see what happens. Already i am cramping so that's a good sign meaning the trigger shot has been absorbed very well. Hoping this is the month.

Zoey, I can't believe in a couple of weeks you'll be in 3rd tri!! you're 23 weeks now? so... about 3-4 weeks for you How are you feeling? tired or achy or pretty good?

I'm kinda jealous of the ladies who say they feel perfect through pregnancy like yes its an amazing time but gosh the aches can get pretty old. I woke up with a cramp in my leg yesterday and I STILL have it today.
I'm so down lately... unsure if its hormones or what.. and I even have things to look forward to
My mom booked her flight, she'll be coming March 1st.
Both my sisters have said they will fly together and arrive May 10th..
So its like I DO have things to look forward to but I can't help but feel down I usually find January to be a blah month.. even last year's January sucked alot.

Anywho! Patrice when will know the results of your DH's test? IUI this morning if I remember correctly. Best of luck!!

 

[magicwhisper]

except for the heartburn and constipation i cant complain

i have started getting mild backache when i walk though but im guessing its because ella is growing im not worried about it

my pregnancy is flying past its going so quick now

we had the fetal heart scan today and everything is perfect which i am glad. I have a funny feeling the consultant will still want to be my primary person which is so annoying i don't need a consultant

january is a pretty awful month we have no money at all, especially since work have stopped giving me any hours so im not getting any hours in at all

 

[josephine3]

magic btw I love the name Ella I want it but my oh says no

 

[AC1987]

My DH refuses to talk names with me... he claims he made a name list and lost it... I know i caught him looking at names only I doubt he even MADE a list and anytime I ask he gets grumpy. *sigh* I just would like to narrow it down to a couple names..

 

[magicwhisper]

awh bless, i hope you can pick names soon

names were simple for us, ive always had a girls name and matts always had a boys name we were just lucky we both liked each others names

 

[ricschick]

ah Patrice sounds like everything is going to plan I hope it ends in a bfp!!

ac you have such a neat bump!! I tend to get big and big quickly!! its a shame dh wont talk names! is there a reason why? has he still not come to terms with you being pregnant?

ive got my consultant apt on Tuesday. I feeling ok tired today tho and getting bigger by the day tho!!!

 

[mzswizz]

cant wait to hear the names of your LOs!! DH and I have names in mind. We know the boy name for sure but the girl name im stuck between 3 but we shall see whats in store for us.

I am on cd13 today. I just made it home from the IUI procedure. DH stayed with me through out the whole process They were able to inseminate 2 syringes worth of DH's sperm We also received his results for his SA which came out great. My doc said that 40 million is considered the normal amount of semen and dh had a count of 88 million He was reading off everything to us and he said that all his results came back above normal So i was really excited to do the IUI. I have been cramping during and after the procedure which he said was completely normal. Also, i had to sign the consent form for him to do the IUI. I laid in the room for 45 mins and then we came home. I did notice a little spotting but I heard that is normal also. During the car ride, I started cramping in my left ovary again so maybe we were just in time because im thinking i might ovulate today. Well, DH wants to test on the 30th but i may or may not try to sneak and test a little earlier than that But we shall see. Tomorrow marks 1dpiui for me. Im excited and cant wait to see if we conceived this cycle. Now the tww begins

 

[AC1987]

Aww thats good it went to well! Been waiting to hear an answer

Last pregnancy we had a girl name picked out and about 3 boy names

My DH is accepting the pregnancy now, he is now at the stage where he blames me for it, and says that I purposely made us dtd then, which I in no way did Yes I had been broody but I wanted him to be on the same page, and in all honestly I thought I wasn't gonna ovulate for like a WEEK later.. which i guess woulda still been bad..
I think its more he is procrastinating on names or just can't be bothered to.
