Well I feel fine. Some twinges, people are getting of my nerves especially my DH haha my appetite has decreased and I keep craving Farmers Market salad wraps from Fresh City. I wish I was nauseous cuz I'd feel more reassured. I keep having to remind myself that I didn't get any symptoms with my other kids until I was at least 6-8 weeks.

Beta is on June 12. Please pray for me and my little beans. Thanks for asking!

[labmommy]

That would be wonderful if it were true!

Nope. I got mine at my 3rd try. Would have saved lots of money, energy and heartache if it was the 1st try

I also wasn't first time lucky. We were blessed 2nd time around.

 

[manchester1]

congrats to you both

 

[Megg33k]

I got one on my first, which didn't work out in the end. My second failed. And, my third ET is today. I guess I'll know how it works out in a couple weeks!

 

[Jaimie2Eyes]

Good luck Megg! So glad things are going well with your twinkies IsiButtercup!

 

[labmommy]

This is such a great thread I thought it deserved a BUMP!

Hi ladies I am lurking , i just had my 2nd failed IUI and the dr wont do another unless we can get his sperm count up to where it was prior to IUI. Anyway if that doesnt happen its on to IVF. Only thing is my insurance wont cover any of it but his will so that will have to wait until Jan, which sucks. She said there is a 60% chance of preg my first time around as I responded well to the Clomid and I already produce alot of follicles. My question is is this the average percentage the first time around or does it vary she said I should have at least 4-8 greats ones they could use and she would only put 1 or 2 back. This is all so new to me so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
