Hopefully this next week won't be too torturous for you!

Hi All
J and K - how are things coming along? Will you be doing the iui tomorrow? I too was told my eggs were "old" and already received the donor egg talk (I have an elevated FSH). I too haven't given up just yet - so keep the faith!

Vita - I wouldn't count Sat in your numbers, do you think you ovulated Sat? I can usually tell by pain - then the next day would be DPO - 1 . Sounds like we have alot of tests coming in on the 1st (alicat too I believe!) - fingers crossed for all!

Karenh - How is your cycle coming along?

Yes we are doing the IUI tomorrow depending on if I get the OPK smiley face. But historically it has been cd13 so Im assuming tomorrow. Im staying positive. We said we were gonna give it our all till March and thats what we are doing. I picked March cuz thats my 40th birthday and it will also mark a year of trying...

Update: Got a BFN as anticipated on Wed. So, we signed our pprwrk w/ the adoption agency and we are working on our profile this weekend. Hoping to see the profile up and being looked at by birthmothers in the next 2 weeks. It is exciting and anxious, but I am kind of relieved that I can get the stress of trying of my mind.

Also, I stopped the prog but still havent gotten AF yet, so still waiting for that to arrive.

TTC...i dont know ur story, or tryin to impose, but they havent found a reason u cant get or stay pregnant? They have no clue y ur iuis failed?

2 weeks is quick to get the home study done! That is awesome. I wish you all the luck in the world with your adoption.

no imposition at all. My DH and I have unexplained infertility. He has slightly below normal motility but not terrible. We have done 3 IUIs and they just have not worked. We have been ttc'ing for 2 1/2 years, got preg naturally last year but m/c after 7 weeks.

I personally think it is me being stressed and worrying about it and for the life of me, I just cant seem to not think about it. So, I am hoping adoption works out for us. We didnt want to spend the $ (no insurance cov for fertility) on IVF, and think this may give us a higher % of getting a baby.

Oh, the home study wont be done in 2 weeks, but as soon as my profile is up they will start marketing to birth mothers while my home study is being completed. Usually they do both at the same time just in case we get picked they can speed up the home study. They told me that will normally take about 6 weeks or so to complete.

Thanks! So today would be 13dpIUI...
I don't know when I ovulated, I was cramping the morning of IUI and my doc said I was ovulating so I guess I did...I honestly didn't think of taking OPK's, but first cycle we live and we learn right? Hopefully it worked and we get our Monday!!
AF is due today, no later than Sunday - so hopefully she doesn't show her ugly face!
AF NOT WELCOME HERE! lol

OH...quick vent!
My mother-in-law has been telling EVERYONE our business...I mean everyone from family/friends, co-workers, and even the Priest at our church; is it just me being too sensitive?!?
I am so upset she is telling everyone MY business and the fact that she has a complete lack of sensitivity to the subject as a whole!
I'm so heated over all of this...there is so much more, but I feel myself getting worked up so I need to take some time to calm down - I'll fill you ladies in about the rest later...
Sorry for the vent...but you ladies know this process is hard enough as it is, we don't need additional stresses added

This is the reason why we decided to tell nobody except my friends who are also TTC with problems, which are 3.
Friends and family members can be so insensitive to this and have no idea what we are going through. Even when they try to make you feel better, they make it worse. So i have kept my TTC a secret, not even my mother or sisters who I am soooo close to, know a thing.
That will make my BFP even more of a celebration.

Vitabella - good luck to you with you MIL. I suggest you stop giving her info on your TTC journey and give her generic 'everything is going well' answers.....she'll get your message eventually. Baby dust to you!!!

this is why i decided not to tell anyone but my bffs...they know what ive been goin thru and know how tokeep there mouth shut. my mother on the otherhand will probly announce on facebook that her daughter just got an iui this morning cuz shes been trying and cant on her own. my MIL wld never do that to me though. u have the right to be mad...i would be foooor sure!

i triggered wed night @7pm, started feeling pains on the left side where my 2 biggest follicles were so im figuring i ovulated, then iui was around 730 today. my u/s showed 1 follicle still there so i obv ovulated. uuuggh im scared i missed it!

Lucky! We couldn't even put our profile up until our homestudy was complete.
