LSB, I tested positive at 13 days post IUI, so I don't think it's too early for you to test. Keep us posted!

 

Toni - December 7

Hi all! Improving still today. I think I am getting close to stopping the spotting and it's brown (tmi) which is a good thing. Hoping to be back at work (but sitting) on Friday or Monday. LSB, I would test if it's day 14 or later, good luck. Judi is this your first child? If not, what do you have now? AmyR Jan will be here before you know it! Christmas will help pass the time.

Toni, that's great news. It sounds like everything's going to be okay. I've been praying for you. Yes, this is my first child. I would have been very happy either way, but I have always wanted a daughter, so I am really excited. Also, my mother-in-law had a little girl three years before she had my husband, and her little girl was born 3 months early and only lived one day (the worst part is that she died on Christmas Day). My husband is her only other child. She said that she had always wanted a little girl, and now she will have a granddaughter. She was so happy when we told her that she cried. Her sister has two boys, so this will be the first girl in their family in a long, long time.

Toni, if you can wait til monday since that will give you the weekend too. Just my thoughts -better safe than regrets later. It's only one day of work but the one extra day givees you 3 for the weekend. Glad to hear your doing better.

Well, I took a HPT and it was a BFN. Even though I am sure that it is accurate, I am not actually due for AF until the 10th. So, perhaps another test on Friday? And this month is out for IUI because the way my cycle is they would have to be done on the 24th and 25th. So, it looks like a wait until January. Throwing my leftover baby dust to everybody else for the month!

Well had U/s and b/w on Tuesday - started puregon Tuesday night...had two follicles on the right - a 10 and 11 and 3-4 on the left around a 9......go back in Saturday morning for more b/w and u/s......and see where things are at.......trying to stay hopeful but not overly so as it leads to such a disappointment afterwards.....to those ladies who were having some trouble.....I am thinking of you and wishing you the best.....baby dust to all and I will try to keep posting......have a great day!

Hi girls. I am going for my 3rd IUI tomorrow and saturday. The estradiol level is 1.500 today and I have 12 follicles... the 2 biggest one are 1.9 and others 1.5, 1.4, 1.2. I don't know why, but I am so hopefull this time. By the way, because the age (41) and high FSH (11) the dr. put me on 300 Follistim AM and PM (600 a day) plus antagon Ganirelix. I was scared and afraid of this high dosage could mess up more my FSH but I did not have onther choice but the good thing is that it really worked. I had only 3 follicles in the previus IUI. Wish luck to everybody that is trying to get pregnant and lots of happiness and healthy for those who are actually expecting babies. Please, pray for me.

I still have the pains on my left side..

 

Toni - December 8

Isa I think I will stay home on Friday too. We had a snow day so today doesn't count against me at work. Still spotting but still brown. Solange I wasn't sure what those measurements mean. I know my follicles were around 23 etc. But good luck and baby dust. Judi I am excited for you! I have been blessed with one of each. I love the differences and being able to experience both.

Sorry I have been sick and had funerals so I have not posted much. I thought I had ovulated while sick but went to RE and they verified I have not ovulated yet. My temps had gone up from my new meds but they are back down now, my body is getting used to the metformin. I will start OPK tomorrow. I am trying this month on my own but if no BFP by January I will add in the clomid and injections again. I have not read the postings yet.

Toni, I think Solange gave centimetres instead of mm so hers would be 19mm, 15mm, 14mm,12mm for her follicles. Glad your taking tomorrow off. Temp way down 96.7 F again (cd26) so hoping af is coming soon. The weird thing is I've got so much ewcm the last 2 days and off and on all month but no ovulation. No idea whats happening but bd the last 2 nights just incase. Becky so sorry about your dad, I'll put him in my prayers. Try and relax as best as you can as I know personally stress can wreck havoc on your cycle.Becca good luck for a +++ opk.

ISA, BECKY and BECCA-We are going to be celebrating your bfps before you know it. Hang in there Isa, that egg white is a good sign.

 

Lee - December 8

SOLANGE and BETHANY-Good luck ladies!....LSB- I don't know what to say, it is not out of the realm of possibility that you will still have a BFP, I hope that is the case :) I will send some good thoughts your way.

 

Lee - December 8

Toni girl, I am glad you are off your feet for a few more days. Enjoy the winter wonderland.

 

Bethany - December 9

Quick question - does anyone here know if heat is bad for you when ttc....by heat I mean a heated matress cover and heat for muscle pain......therawraps......just curious - going to call and ask tomorrow but thought I would see if anyone here knew as well. Goodnight and baby dust to all.....

 

Becca - December 10

Toni- I hope you are doing better. What a scare! Edy- I am so excited for you! Let us know when you get the official count. Bethany- I am wondering the same thing so let me know when you get an answer.
