polly= 178mill is really high. that is after the wash too. he is training for a marathon and is doing a lot of running and drinking a ton of water and following a really healthy diet...i really think that had a lot to do with his increase. although my girlfriends dh had the same number as yours and they concieved on there own with twins...anything is possible. we really dont know what our problem is (obviously not dh) so i'm unexplained. do you have any factors? what ages are you guys...i'm 25 and dh 29.

Hello everyone, Just wanted to check in has been a while. I am on clomid and I only just went back to Re on day 12. Sorry Polly, I am praying for your BFP. Well I have a question. This is my first round of clomid, I was told I have many unmature eggs but 3 mature eggs one 15mm, 17mm amd 18mm. Is it normal to have these size eggs on day 12? Shouldnt they be bigger? Are my eggs growing to slowly? Can someone please help I am so worried about the quality because of the small size of my eggs.

Hi Kl99, don't get yourself down because everyone is different and many women do not feel any signs and find out their prego! Actually there was a women named Gurinsa that I was 2ww with many times and one month we were on the exact same schedule.... I was getting a little bit of this and a little bit of that (symptoms I thought) and she had nothing really. In the end she got her bfp thankfully, and I did not. Keep thinking positive! Everyone on this thread needs to say "yep, this is the month for me and all the others"... good things may come of that. Hi LEAH, sounds like yesterday was a little painful... that's the part I am not looking forward to, but, we do what we have to do :-) Wow! 178 does seem very good! I hope this works for you! Hi TRONYX, were have you been? :-) I am not sure about all RE's opinions but speaking on behalf of mine, they must be 18mm or larger and IUI's are usally btwn day 12-14.... I don't want to worry/upset you so please only take that as one opinion. There may be other reasons they are growing smaller, do you ovualte late? Good Luck Girls!!

Ok, I had my RE appt this a.m. Had the b/w done (waiting on results) and the u/s. I am on day 8, and have taken 5 days worth of 150unit Gonal-F. The nurse said my lining could be a text book picture.... it is 8 in thickness and my RE likes to see it at 7 or + so that was great and then out of the 17 follies I have 4.... 14, 13, 13, 8.5. I have never had them be so close in size or 2 of the same size. The nurse said that if they dobuling at the same rate that 2-3 could drop/fertilize. Right now, I am just praying for 1... I won't get greedy! Well I will keep you posted. GOSIA, JG, SASHAP, EKOORB where are you?

Hi Leah,
Is he trying to qulaify for Boston? My sister is doing it. She is such a stick person. Makes me laugh! Anyway, my husband is a hockey player, plays three x a week. You know what that means...3xbeer!!! He is 6'2 and about 280 lbs. All in his belly!!! Anyhow, I am 35 and he is 37. He has a kid from a first marriage and he lives with us and has for the last 6 years. He is 16. I have no kids of my own. I am getting nervous because of my age. I think I am starting to have a meltdown. I know things will work out for you. I just have a feeling!!!

Tronyx,
I don't think that it is too small. If they double in the next two days you will be fine. You haven't set a date for IUI have you? Sounds like it wil be Day 15/16. I don't think it is a biggie.

Hi ladies! Sorry I have been gone for so long, but work has been crazy! I don't mind so much because besides the daily blood work and ultrasounds, it kind of keeps my mind off of ttc. I do care about how you ladies are doing and I'm sorry I haven't been in to check in on all of you. just wanted to share my latest-Went to Re today and I have 4 at 17 on the left and 5 at 13 on the right. I'm really excited because I found out a few days back last time, I only had one mature folly (someone dropped the ball) I'm not happy about it, but what can I do? Chele, it really looks like we are on the same page. I have to decrease my dose tonight and go tomorrow to have blood work and a scan. My guess is, I'll have trigger first of two insemination's on Sunday, unless they cancel it because of too many mature follies. I hope not. They are going to decrease my trigger shot to half because of the greater chance of multiples. Okay back to work for me. I will check back in later. Good luck ladies...Good news should be here soon....

EKOORB, Wow you sure have a nice amount of follies and great sizes! Guess they were off... how they could miss that I don't know either. I'll keep my fingers crossed that your cycle is not cancelled :0) Good luck!!!

tronyx- your count sounds really good and the growth is great for day 12. how long have you been on the meds for? about 8days???? if thats the case then some girls are one it only 7days some on it for 10days...its ok if your one the higher end. i'm the same way but i dont get as many as you. my doc said that it is no indication of how your body is off the meds so everybody is differnt and there is no way of them telling how your body will react. everything sounds great though!!!chele and brook- nice follies also i'm wishing everyone babydust this month...we need really really good x-mas presents!!! polly- i have a really good feeling about you too!!! this is my dh's first marathon and we live in ohio so its in columbus. not untill october though. my hubby is not supper skinny either. and trust me he gets his fair share of the brewskies!! haha. thats so cool that your dh plays hockey. my dh loves to watch it on tv. they are some tough guys!!! well good luck!! hey addie how was your iui???? hope all went well!!!

Sorry I've been MIA I've had a stomach virus since Wed. Af came last night so I'm out this month!! I'm taking a month off and I'll do another IUI in April I need a break. Did anybody get a BFP?

 

Apalonia - March 10

Hi Sasha,looks like you and I are on the same page. It's so frustrated. I am starting again in April as well.
good luck to everyone.

Hi Gals, work has been so heactic and it didn't allow me much time to check in. How is everything going? Did we get any BFPs? How many are waiting in the 2ww? I am on cycle day 9 so I have nothing to report. I have my day 10 sonograms to check my follies tomorrow morning. I'm getting nervous and excited at the same time. I hope there are a few in there growing. Normally if I don't O by the 14th, then I usually trigger. I'm hoping to trigger since I normally don't O until the day 19 of my cycle. I don't want to wait that long.

 

chele - March 11

Leah, how are you doing? SASHA, sorry about af... hopefully the month off will get everything on course the next cycle and it will take!!! Hope your feeling better :0) APOLONIA, as I mentioned to SASHA, maybe this downtime will help in getting you a bfp in April! HANNAH, well we are just a day away from each other.... today is day 10 for me. Let me know what size your follies are after your appt. The nurse said today that my lining is an A+ (12), and my follies were 17, 17, 15, 14 so I will take another dose of Gonal-F tonight, go in for b/w & u/s tomorrow a.m., trigger tomorrow night and IUI at 9a.m on Tues and Wed. Are you having 1 or 2 IUI's? Keep us posed and good luck at your appt tomorrow!
Where is GOSIA??? Please write, I am wanting to know how everything is going w/ you. Lot's of BABY Dust to everyone and lots' of Rest for those that are taking the next cycle off.

 

Hannah B - March 11

Chele, wow your follies are big for 10 day. Is it because of the jnjections? My follies on day 10 is usually around 11 or 12. I hope there are a few this month like last month. Even though we are only 1 day apart, If I get to trigger it won't be until Friday night. So I'll get to do my IUI on Sunday. Normally if I trigger it is only one IUI. Howver my RE is okay with doing two if I request it. This month I want to try something different or similiar to Dec when I did get preggie. I think I will keep the IUI that they normally schedule 36 hours after your trigger, but normally if I don't ovulate by that morning, I have to come back in for another sono to confirm collapse of the follie. In December we did an IUI after collapse was confirmed because my IUI was performed when I surged, but my follies didn't release. They had to do blood work to confrm my LH surge and when they did, I triggered and had a third IUI. So this month I want to request a second IUI, but after the collapse. Who knows, it just may work. So Chele, your going to actually be @ 6days ahead of me once you get your IUI's. Baby dust to you....good luck.

Hello Everyone!!! THanks for all the information it really helps Leahb...I took clomid from day 4-8 and today is day 14 the nurse said the clomid is stilll in my system and will continue to have an impact on my follies, she alsosaid they are waiting for a surge and as of day 13 I have yet to surge therefore I go again tommorrow for Bw/Us this would be day 15. Re is not open on Sunday and Suday is day 14 for me. I am waiting now. I think that on monday they will get my iui. According to my nurse I could have bw and they will call me one hour later and tell me to come back for my iui. This is my first cycle of iui and I am very confused I dont know what is going on and how things should be.

Hey Girls!!! I have been MIA since my IUI...It went very well! DH had 368 Mill after wash...double what it was last month...RE seemed very pleased. It's amazing that DH has enough sperm to get the whole country pregnant, but I can't yet!!! Hopefully this is our month! This IUI was better than the 1st...hardly any cramping at all!!! Last time I had such bad cramping that I felt like I was gonna pass out...my Mom went with me this time...DH had to work...asked my Mom.."I bet you never thought you'd be doing this with your daughter..." LOL :)~ Maybe one day she call tell our child she was in the room when he/she was conceived...Chele...about my 3 eggs...not for sure I had 3 eggs, but RE told me I had 6 follies, and 3 that would for sure be big enough to release an egg...I just hope one gets fertilized. How is everyone feeling? I'm only 2dp IUI and I can tell this is going to be a long 2ww. I start progesterone tonight...BFP's here we come!!! Baby dust to you all! This is our month!!! Have a great week!!! XOXO
