Tonia0989, try to condense all your messages to one so you aren't spamming, please. Good luck with your journey, natural supplements aren't for me. Baby dust to you too

Holly, you definitely found me you look gorgeous in your wedding pics! Very pretty

So I started spotting last night, it's not looking good,.. Had a mini breakdown. And I am hoping that my change from a steady 30 day cycle to 28 last month and 27 this month (if it starts full flow today) is just due to Derek's daughter moving in with us recently and maybe we're syncing up lol.

Sigh. I am so stressed.... We already have the beginnings of a nursery in the spare room lol... But it keeps me hopeful, y'know?

I like the first week. After that I start stressing about when I ovulate LOL. And then for about a week after ovulating when I know it's too early to know, I am alright as well. But even IUI is too expensive because it means buying the sperm. And I think you mentionned somewhere along the line why doesn't he reverse it, well we would but he met me after the 10 year deadline was up and so we wouldn't have a chance in hell of getting his spermies swimming up to par lol. Just about the only thing we can do now is at home insemination with a medicine syringe LOL.

But yeah, my man really is my other half. We freak friends out when we talk to eachother without words, just looks lol. And you are lucky to have found your balanced counterpart Der and I may have a bit TOO much fun, and we're both perhaps a bit too laid back. But we'll get the hang of it! Lol.

BDing just for the sake of it would help, lol. It reduces stress And I've asked a lot of friends... I have one tentative yes and one definite yes, but he's asian lol. It's fine for DH and I, but in the future he or she may be upset that they don't look like us. But yes, over the past 2 years one yes and one maybe isn't much lol.

But yeah, we chose leap year to mess around with friends, they won't know when to wish us a happy anniversary hahaha. And we can have a big celebration every time leap year comes around and maybe a date night the other years.

Yes, I considered using an ex as well, as we were still friends and Derek has no jealousies, but then my ex turned in to an ass when he met his new girlfriend who is now his ex girlfriend and baby mama, lol. It would have been complicated, though.

I don't mind people knowing, though. Most of the people who matter already know because I have shared our struggle so openly lol. We will figure things out My mum was amused when I told her and said "well you have always wanted an asian baby ", which is true, I have wanted one since i was like six lmao!

And I knew what you meant, lol! I used to hope for that 1 in a million chance you can get pregnant after vasectomy.... Sigh, looks like that's not the case, though, lol.

Weird, BnB said I was the last to post here. Was just coming to update that AF is for sure here, and with avengence. We are turning to good friends for help... Going to go plead tonight, lol.

I haven't heard that specifically about IUI but I read Taking Charge of Your Fertility and the fact that it would be more than likely a boy relating to the reasoning in the chapter about gender selection would make sense in theory, but I believe it's a 50/50 chance regardless lol

Your IUI is coming up so soon! Are you excited? Isn't waiting for +OPK a killer??

My docs office is open 6 days a week, closed Saturday. I was always sooo stressed that my + would fall on a friday night. And Derek and I were talking last night. We think that it stressed my body out more than most women to do the IUI... Like it made me SO sore the next day that I was in tears a few times, and I've looked in to it, that's not the normal reaction, most don't feel it at all. And so we think this more natural way will help.

I agree that it's a big deal to donate. The ones who will donate without thinking about it are kinda silly, there's a part of you out there somewhere, you've gotta take it somewhat seriously. But if I had sperm I would give it to a couple, but I would want pictures, lol.

Thinkin' about you, hunny. Cheering for your BFP You'll do perfectly fine!

Omgoodness they said yes! The only thing they want is that no one ever know their identity except us four, and that if we die or can no longer take care of ourselves let alone another, that the baby goes to them first before social services etc. Which is quite alright I am soo rediculously happy right now. And they realize it could be more than one month trying. But fingers crossed it takes this month

What time are you taking the OPKs each day? I was told between 5 and 6 so that it's not too long a wait from morning to next morning Good luck! Hopefully your + shows up soon so you can go get those soldiers inserted hahaha!

Awwww, I have a good feeling about this month for you For me too, actually. We've been trying wayyy too long. I just wanna be able to finish the nursery

I am still so excited. Last night was the best sleep I have had in a very long time, knowing that we no longer have to worry about the cost of trying, at least for now. I am hoping that it's only male factor and timing that is getting us and that I am able to get pregnant. I know I have very mild PCOS but my FS didn't think it would hinder my baby makin' cause I still ovulate naturally.

I'm on CD3 already, time is already going by quick. I like this first week for that, lol! How are you doing?

LOL you're so cute. But I bet that would need a lot of energy. DH likes to play the "I'm too old" card a lot... Good thing we aren't BDing for real or he'd probably have a heart attack LOL. But hopefully you don't ovulate that much later with the clomid

I don't know when to start taking my OPKs because I have never spotted for two days before so I am wondering if this is actually day 4 or not, and that also means my last cycle was at most 27 days long... Spotting started on the 26th and continued the 27th and then full flow the next day. So I treat it as 27 days, right? But then I have to start testing on the 10th, right? My cycles used to be a steady 30 days... I really hope that the IUIs just messed them up and they'll go back to normal. They were so much easier to predict ov lol. It was always around CD16 or CD17 but last month it was CD14 and this month I haven't a clue.

Sucks, cause I WANT to inseminate three times if possible, two or three days before +, day of + and day after +. (Wow, if I was doing IUI that would cost around $4500... Remind me to buy my friends a gift or twenty LOL)

I have thought of names more than him of course, but because I forced my brother to leave my boy name alone when he had my nephew, I pretty much have to use it if I have a boy (Which is alright because I still adore the name). It's Chase. And as Derek and I are hoping for a girl, we have dreamt up more names for her... Calypso (Callie) is the one we're stuck on, we both adore mythology and fantasy/sci-fi so it fits with us. But we have all ends of the spectrum, with Piper, Phoebe and Jocelyn in there as well. I love P names, and Derek watched Charmed and I watched Friends. LOL. But we might let fate decide with an Egyptian naming ceremony and burn candles with intended names in front of them and the last one lit will be the name. We'll see lol. How about yourself?
