ROBYN - August 10

Afternoon ladies, went to the RE office this morning myself and DH at 0700 hrs. I have 3 follicles 2 on the left and one on the right sizes were 18, 16 and 14. So thats pretty good. My estro level was 414. So they said if I dont get a positive OPK in the next 3 days then I go in Sunday morning for another U/S and estrogen level check. If I get a positive OPK in the next 3 days then I do the trigger shot that night and have intercourse for the next 3 days and go in 7-9 days after that for a progesterone level check. So thats the story. Its the most follicles I've had at one time. So anyway. Denise my fingers are crossed for you. Tanya I have to laugh about your story thats pretty funny. Anyway hi to all of you. I will check in a little while. Oh.. what do you all think about the latest terrorist plot going on? Thats is pretty scary. Luv to all of you.

Hey everyone! Still no word on the promotion yet, frustrating! And, yup, my ac is back and working! <DMK> I have had that problem with posting before, only happened once. I wonder why it does that sometimes! <MOMMY2JOSH> Sorry clomid is making you feel terrible, that is no fun. <BL> Good luck with dh's test tomorrow! <DMK> I am not sure what is considered low for levels. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I didn't think to ask what my levels were... now you have me a little nervous! :) I'm sure everything will be ok for you. I have been having some mild cramping, and have been very bloated. And, actually, right before I came on here, I looked up ideas to get rid of gas pains while pg! So, try not to worry. Did you get the results back from your second bw test? Hello to everyone else!!

Oh ... I just read the posts quickly (couldn`t resist, LOL) and I want to tell Denise that I am praying and wishing and hoping that everything will be OK ... BTW, this is something that I found ***``At 14 DPO, the average HCG level is 48 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 17-119 mIU/ml.``**** I hope that makes you feel better!!!! ((((HUGS))))

slowpoke01 - August 10

hey girls just wanted to check in with you all..ok so dh went with me today to the docs because his log truck broke down in the yard yesterday. i think that may have been a sign since i always say that he never goes with me. he couldnt believe how far i have to drive. the iui went good the doc was real pleased.oh yeah i dont know if i told you girls about the doc using a pack well i asked him why he used it and he said that the uterus only holds a small amount and then it starts pushing it back out. so he uses that to keep it all in there and to keep the uterus from pushing it out. isnt that what we all want to hear..lol..another way our bodies are working against us..well anyway dh wanted me to tell you girls that since he watched every little detail of what they did that he thinks that we are alol brave strong women because he didnt think that a man would be able to handle it. he said that we really go through alot to have a baby and he never really understood it until he saw it.so now i am in the 2ww. i am excited even if this cycle doesnt work. KATT- that is crazy that your doc just skipped right through iui. i think i would try that before i went to the ivf which is way more expensive. definitely ask about clomid cause it made me have lots of really good follicles whether they get fertilized or implantation takes place or not is up to the good lord and i think it will happen when he is ready for it to, but clomid i think really increased my chances. it is worth trying a couple of times anyway before you go to ivf..well good nite all i will talk to you later

Yeah Denise!!!!! I hope you can relax now. Will you still go for the u/s tomorrow? Kelley, your family is beautiful. I love the belly pic! I love dd's curls, too cute. Nb, hope that gas goes away. Robyn, sounds like you've got some good follies in there.

 

bl - August 10

Jamie, glad that dh went with you. I think it's important for them to see what we go through. I hope this is your lucky month.

 

NB - August 11

<KELLEY> Loved the pics! I kept pics of my belly all throughout my pg with ds, and I have started that this time as well. With ds I tried to take one each month, it's fun to see at the end! How far along are you now? You look great!

 

NB - August 11

Yea DMK!!! That's great news!

 

mommy2josh - August 11

First off, Denise - here is a huge hug for you (((((((((Denise)))))))). What a relief. I was so worried even though I knew everything will be ok. GL with the u/s tomorrow. Hope you get to see the sac, I think its early for heartbeat, but you never know. Robyn, awesome that you have three good size follies, hopefully you will o soon. How is Anthony's ears? Are you and Jason over your illnesses? Jamie, good luck hon with the 2ww. Hope you hubby will appreciate you and your efforts more. How is he dealing with the sperm donor thing? I'll bet riding horses had a lot to do with his sperm count. Katt how are you doing at work? Is it a little easier? Cant you use a stool or a chair when you draw blood? Brooke, good luck to your hubby! How is the potty training thing going? Kelley, you look beautiful and Isabella is gorgeous. She looks like you. Leslie, when are we going to see your belley? Did we ever see your pics? Hello to Kathy, Erin, Jess, Rhonda, NicoleM, Shauna, Melissa (how are you holding on? What cd are you? I think we are close this cycle). Be right back.

Just checking in to say night night. Love ya ladies. Speak to ya all tomorrow. I just realized that I forgot to take clomid tonight. Last night when I took it, it got stuck in my throat. And let me tell you ladies, it tasted like CRAP. I had that bitter taste in my mouth the whole night. Well good night. ((((hugs))))

 

LeslieK - August 11

Hello everybody: lots going on with everyone today. Denise, I'm so glad the bloodwork came back so good! Let us know how the u/s goes tomorrow. Jamie- I'm glad your dh got to go to your iui, its great that he saw how much your'e doing to make this happen for you guys. Kelley- your photos are great. your dd's curls are adorable! I have to say that your belly is further along than mine. I seem to carry really low and deep. I'm showing, but not that much. Tanya, I'll have to wait until I have more to show before I figure out how to post some pictures. I'll work on that the next week or so. Does anyone have a preference on an easy site to build a web page? Okay ladies, I've got to go eat and put my feet up. I'm trying to keep the swelling down in my feet during these hot days. talk to you all soon!!
