TTC buddy?!

[Smooch]

Sweet! So glad about the funds part
Keeping everything crossed

Thanks for the support ladies. I'm just so sad right now. I don't think we will have the money for next cycle. I just went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was light pink on the toilet paper. Weird because I've been on progesterone, even took one this morning before I found out and my nurse told me AF probably would be here around the weekend

Anyways, welcome to the new ladies. Cabby DH and I have been TTC for a year. Going on our 13th month now. Wishing you all good luck.

TTCBean thanks for the link...I'll check it out!

Aww I'm so sorry hun it really does suck This whole process is beyond unfair- people who really shouldn't be parents get to pop kids out like there's no tomorrow then good people like us struggle- it just doesn't make any sense to me! But hey ho we WILL get there and it will be even more special when we do! DH and I have been trying for 14 months now! Going on to our 15 month now! So hoping it's 15th time lucky! haha

Sooo ladies...we are going to be moving on to b2b IUI #2! I'm going to call my nurse tomorrow and ask what we will be doing different this time. DH has been on antibiotics and I don't know if that will affect his sperm count, which is already kind of low. So if she thinks it will make it worse then we will skip this next cycle and wait. But glad to say we do have the funds for it. I will let you know what she thinks when I speak with her!

I've emailed the financial lady at the clinic to get an estimate for IVF as well in case the IUI fails again.

OMG fantastic news hun! So pleased u got the money together
this is going to be ur cycle I just know it! Best of luck hun x

 

[TTCBean]

I am so happy you got your funds together AMN!!! Good luck!

AF is here. I spoke to my nurse and she said that its definitely worth another shot with the IUI and if it doesn't work we will sit down with our RE and decide whats next. They may put me on a low dose of HCG this time which she said will help only a few follicles mature and have the best quality rather than having a bunch mature. I guess I have a ton of follicles. At least thats how I understood her. I go in Friday morning for my day 3 b/w and scan. THIS WILL BE MY MONTH!!!!

This WILL be your month!!!

 

[TTCBean]

It will be AMN!!!! and I hope mine too!!

 

[AMN21]

TTCBean yes, we will both get our bfp this time!!

 

[TTCBean]

Grr, not sure if I should call my doctor or not... CD18 and still haven't got a positive OPK!

 

[Smooch]

tht stinks...maybe just call...better than waiting too long? Gotta get tht O

 

[TTCBean]

I just called and the doctor is on vacation for a week. So I talked to a nurse. She said she was really surprised he didn't want me to do bloods or an u/s this round. She said a lot of the time the first round of 50mg Clomid doesn't work so they usually up it to 100mg and do bloods and u/s to monitor ovulation, and if you aren't ovulating they give you a shot to help you. She said that is probably what he'll do at my next appointment if I am not pregnant. I don't see him until June 1 so I guess it works out, I'd be on CD32 if I don't get my period. I did mention the 10 days of "High" on the CBFM, and she said that was odd, maybe I did ovulate but didn't get a positive reading... but then again you don't know for sure unless you've had an u/s!! Grrrrr. I am starting to lose hope. and it SUCKS.


I did call the nicer obgyn in town, but they were booked until July 11! So I took the appointment. The next day I got a welcome packet in the mail with LOADS of information. The receptionist was really nice and kept apologizing for the long wait to see a doc. I think I'll like this new place, and it's only about a 10 minute drive from my house! The current place I go to in about a 40 minute drive.

 

[Smooch]

Aw tht sucks! This TTC business is crazy...wish the medical field could be more quick and effecient with women who need it. Fingers crossed....we will do our best to get u thru.

 

[AMN21]

TTCBean that sucks but at least you can get in with this new doc. It will be July before you know it! But keep hope for a bfp in the mean time. Just keep BDing! Like Smooch said, we'll help you get through this!

 

[TTCBean]

You girls are awesome, thanks so much for the support!!

Still no positive, but we've been BDing a lot just in case I didn't catch it. Been getting cramps today and have had a headache for two days now... super thirsty too (I drank 15 cups of water yesterday and still was thirsty!!) and randomly got sick tonight... don't know why. I wonder if these are symptoms of Clomid coming out of my system. I wish our bodies would just print out a sheet saying exactly why this and that's happening, LOL.

 

[AMN21]

That would be nice huh?!

Went in to my RE's for my day 3 scan and b/w...all looked great. I start 150 units of follistim tonight. 50 more units than I started with last time. I go back Tuesday and we'll talk about if I need to use the low dose HCG injections. Really hope this is it this time. DH and I already said if not we will be taking a break and trying naturally the rest of summer because we want to enjoy summer and we have a week long vacation coming up, its just a busy time of year for us. I'm not getting my hopes up too high like I did before. Praying God sees it as time for us to be parents!!

Smooch how's everything? When do you go in for your beta?

 

[Smooch]

AMN..I do hope This will be it too!
Things are good...my first appt is June 11 ill be 8 weeks then...can't wait.
Just want all to be good

 

[AMN21]

It will be! I'm so excited for you!

 

[TTCBean]

CD21, no positive OPK and my CBFM is still reading as "High".

 

[Smooch]

Well that's no good...

 

[AMN21]

Hmm...I don't know much about the CBFM but that's strange
