Morning Ladies, I had a tough nite. My left ovary was so bad that I had to sit in a tub filled with steaming hot water then have my DH rub my back and side with Benghay(spelled really wrong). Then we had a fight because he wanted to BD and i didnt. OPK was BFN but he insisted that i was ovulating so we had to. MEN!!!!! CD16 and still nothing. Anyway I had a concern, my you ladies can help me, being that im probably the youngest here and less experienced.

Since these months of TTC, my issue has been almost never ovulating and if i do then i dont have enough follicles to grow and me the baby. Im getting back on Clomid this month (hopefully) but DH wants and IUI.

WHAT IS THE BEST ROUTE I SHOULD TAKE?!?!?!?!?

Good Morning Ladies, Erin_thenurse... Sorry to hear about your visit doctors can be so inconsiderate sometimes but all will be well hopefully you'll be pg and not have to worry about the next step. Pba74....How are you feeling hopefully a lot better then you have been feeling, just stay positive I know it's hard but everything will be ok.,momtoaandk- Welcome like all the other ladies stated I don't know too much about ruptured cysts either but I'm sure at least 1 of the ladies on hear will have some idea this is a bright group of ladies, you might want to try to google it and see what pops up.CarolinaCowgirl-Just relax everything will be ok they say when you just stop stressing over the whole thing that's when you end up pg!! I know easier said then done cause I'm having a hard time trying to do it myself. vheni3- I would do the clomid especially if your only problem is not ovualting but the neg, with that is the wait . I'm not an expert and only 23 myself but what can it hurt? aggie98- I don't know too much about bbt I tried it and couldn't seem to remember to take my temp. before I got out of bed.But keep us posted lots of sticky babydust your way...As for me cd25 and 7dpo alot of my symptoms has left my nipples are still a little sore no real cramping this morning and just another regular day. Kinda makes me a little upset and I don't wanna test too ealry so I'm just waiting I did have alot of discharge yesturday and a lil' upset stomach and the constipation left.. What do you ladies think does that mean I'm not pregnant because I don't really feel pregnant!!

Erin, I think you should tell your new doctor: "Look I've had it with the Clomid cycles and Im ready for my IUI and if you dont give me one you're gonna find out what's its like to be a frustrated woman TTC!!!" I think that will set him straight.

cjones: sore nipples & constipation are good signs. Im only 19, been married for 2yrs, TTC for about 14-16 months and miscarried in Jan08. AGGIE: keep checking ur temp it helps in a way cause my docs keep asking me to do it although mine is off the walls. PBA, how you been? no bloating that's EXCELLENT!!! Carolina, prayn & hoping & littleangel how are you all this morning?

vheni3.. Thank you for the input the constipation has left and yesturday I was the compelete opposite of constipation I don't know what's going on with my body my nippels are still sore but only when I tough them!!! Question do you wanna get the iui or try the clomid a little longer I think you should go with your heart. Erin- the same goes for you if you know that you want to do iui I would truely express that to your RE and if his resist look for another one !!!

I want the IUI cause I dont want to go thru another deception but i heard many good things about Clomid. DH doesnt trust it though. He's positive that the IUI will work for us. He really wants this baby, our first little girl died in his hands so u get the picture. She was only 6months and her lungs werent developed. But my heart says IUI will help us.

vheni3 ... So sorry for the lost of your little girl. I can only imagine the pain that you and DH felt. If you believe the iui will work then go for it!!!Wishing you the best and keeping you and your husband in my prayers.

The RE said that he doesn't want to waste my money because he believes that the IUI will only do that. I have shown him my charts and since I had a positive OPT with the 100mg clomid, he believes that I ovulated so he wants to see if I will continue to ovulate. He says that because I got pregnant before, the swimmers must have gotten through at least once. I am waiting to see the bhcg and the progesterone before I try to push further.
I haven't gotten anymore opts or even pads/tampons for the starting a new cycle because I want to see if the hcg in pos. I really don't think I am. Thank you ladies for all your support.


MOMTOAANDK, thank you for your kind words. I am from San Antonio, where are you from?? Sorry to hear about your ovarian cyst. You may not have ovulated so you might not get AF as scheduled and may need provera to restart it. Can you move up your appt so you won’t have to wait??? BTW, what is you name?? AMANDA, thanks for your support. Has AF shown up today?? JENNIFER, thanks for all the info yesterday. When are you going to test?? I am crossing my fingers that this is implantation. CJONES, welcome and great to have you here. You guys are the best!! Sounds like you are neck to neck with Jennifer. What is your name and where are you from?? RUBI, I have the same problem as you. I don’t ovulate without meds. Do you actually ovulate on clomid? If not then you may need to increase that dose. An IUI is next step for people with DH with low sperm count, people with a hostile cervix, and the next step for those that clomid alone hasn’t worked. HEATHER, good luck this cycle!! Thank you ladies for all your support.
