Hi Montie and Lovemy3... Things here have been a little crazy for me. I was sick with a cold for a few days and was just out of it. The only good thing about being sick was that it took my mind off of wanting to take an HPT. I have not taken a test yet. I really want to but don't want to be disappointed. Tomorrow will be 7DPO. I had my IUI a week ago. I go for my beta on the 22nd and really hope that I will get some good news. Lovemy3 - Good Luck!!! I know that you are going to have a great time in Magic Kingdom... Montie - Good Luck with the u/s on Friday. I hope that they find some mature follicles!!! I am really hoping that all of us will get our BFPs in the next few weeks. Keep me posted on your progress!!! Hugs to both of you!!!

Hey Cooper!! OMG, time is flying around here. You are almost done with your tww and I will be starting mine soon. LOL.........I wish you luck. You know, back in August when I had my m/c, I did get a stuffy nose and mild cold. Hmmmm, maybe those are good signs for you!! My u/s went well today. I have nothing on my right, however I have 2 follicles on my left both measuring 18. I am excited. I am waiting until this afternoon to talk to my RE about the trigger and IUI. I am guessing I will do the trigger tomorrow and IUI on Monday. We will see. Lovemy3, where are you? How are you doing?? You should have done your IUI by now, right?? Hugs to you both!!

Hey Montie... Things here are going okay. I was just on a different thread on this board. I was telling them that I am feeling nauseous and then I was really hungry after I ate lunch. Not to mention at night I get really tired and just want to sleep. I don't want to get my hopes up that I might be pregnant. I sometimes think that I try to convince myself of the symptoms. I feel like I am going crazy. This time, I do feel like I am less anxious and less stressed. A lot of women post that they have multiple IUIs before they saw a BFP. I think that on my first one, I was putting a lot of pressure on myself to get a BFP. This time, we didn't tell any of our friends or family that we were having an IUI. I was actually telling people that we are going to skip a month and try after the new year. This way there are less quesitons and less pity if this time doesn't work. That is great that you had 2 on the left that were 18. I read somewhere that they grow 2MM each day. If that is the case, they yours could be around 24 when you have your IUI. That would be great. I wish you tons of luck... I hope that all of us will see BFPs in the next few weeks. Let me know how things go with your RE and when your IUI will be. Talk to you later!!!

Hey Cooper!! I agree with you about the convincing myself of symptoms. I do it every month!! This month I seem pretty settled also. I believe it’s because we had a successful IUI…it just ended up in a m/c. Hopefully that won’t happen again!! I had my IUI this morning. Right now, I am feeling a lot of pressure in the ovary department. I think they may be swollen from the meds. Also, today during my IUI, they clammed onto my cervix and pulled them closer. Doesn’t that sound painful? Yes, it was. I think I cried. Anyway, I am just really sore. I hate walking around at work!! LOL, I can’t wait to leave. So Cooper, when are you going to test? You could test today if you wanted to!!!
