Stress while TTC with IUI

Hi Lovemy3... I can't even begin to tell you how much my MIL bothers me. She seems to be so nice and then when you get to know her she is just passive agressive. The worse part about it is that she will never say anything in front of my DH. Everyone keeps telling me that I should not stress over it but it is really hard. I don't know if she knows how much she stresses me. I really am trying to not stress because I know how important it is for me. I don't want to do anything that will prevent my from getting a BFP. I feel for you about your parents though. It's great that you and your DH are in a position to have more kids. I just needed to vent out some of my frustrations. Sometimes it is really hard for me to tell DH that his mom is making me frustrated. I don't want him to be caught in the middle. On a brighter note, we are one more day closer in our 2WW. I really want to take my HPT but don't want to be disappointed. I think that I am going to wait it out and wait until I am 15DPO to take the test. How about you? Are you still thinking about going to see a doctor if you don't see a BFP this month? Good Luck to you!!! I hope to hear from you that you are pregnant...

Hi Cooper, CD29 for me. I didn't o till cd20 this month so its still too early to test. I think the earliest I could test properly will be saturday. With my other kids I never got BFP's till cd 40, weird eh? I so hope we get our BFP's this month!

Hi ladies!! I was just reading your thread. I hope you don't mind. I had my IUI this past Saturday and am now in the TWW, however as you can do the math....well behind you guys!! This is our first IUI since our M/C back late August. Just hang in there ladies......it's not about it not happening, it's about WHEN it happens!!! I wish you all nothing but warm wishes and baby dust!!

ok all, starting to stress during this wait, it seems to be the worst wait out of them all...gosh I hate this!!

Hi Lovemy3... Don't stress... The good thing is that Thanksgiving is only 2 days away. That should keep your mind on something else. I keep wanting to test but keep telling myself that I should just wait it out. A part of me really wants to find out but I am really scared that I am going to be disappointed again. Not to mention that DH will also be disappointment. He is really supportive and just keeps telling me that it will happen for us. Hopefully sooner than later. Just hang in there... I know it is easier said than done because this 2WW is making me crazy as well. Just keep posting... Hopefully that will make you feel better...

Thanks cooper, I am in canada so we don't have anything special this at all, so we're fully focused on a BFP-lololol.. Anyhow, thanks for getting me out of my funk!!! Hugs.

Lovemy and Cooper - when do you guys plan on testing???

 

Cooper5450 - November 21

Hi Montie75... I plan to test on Friday with an HPT. I will then be 14DPO. I am going to pray that I see a BFP. I have yet to see one of those. How about you? Where are you in your cycle? The 2WW is always the hardest. I think that this one is especially hard for me because this is my first cycle after having an IUI. If this one doesn't work for me then I am going to start the next cycle with injectibles. Would love to hear about what you are going through...

Lovemy3... Know that I am here to listen to you. Just keep posting what your thoughts are because it is a good way to let things out. Hugs right back to you...

Cooper- Thank you for showing interest in my story. We have been ttc now for over 3yrs. This is my first cycle with Femara and IUI. I am currently only 3dpo. I did a total of 6 cycles on Clomid with IUI in the past. Four of those cycles were consecutive and the last two of those I started using the trigger shot Ovidril. So, on my last cycle of clomid and ovidril with IUI, I did get my BFP, however 7 weeks later, m/c. My RE was afraid that my lining got too thin being on the clomid for so long. I currently have no fertility issues. We are doing IUI due to male issues. So, this cycle is my first cycle back since the m/c and my first with Femara, Ovidril and IUI. LOL.......oh my gosh was a story!! LOL.........See both you and Lovemy3 are going to get BFP this month......and because the path will be blessed with this luck, I will then follow. Doesn't that sound like a wonderful plan??

Hi Montie75... My DH and I have been TTC for 2 years now. At first I thought it was me and didn't think to get him checked. Then we went and it turns out that he had low sperm count and the motility wasn't too good either. Finally in August, I went through a lot of tests. They didn't find anything wrong with me. They told us to go and try by ourselves for 1 month and if that didn't work then we would move on to IUI. That is where I am right now. My RE gave me Tamoxifen. He said that it was better for the lining. It has the same effects as Clomid I think. I did the meds and then the Ovridel shot. As you read I did take an HPT and it was a BFN 8DPO. I hope that I am going to see something different. Thanks for sharing your experience. Good Luck!!!

Montie, I like you plan and we will all be thrilled. We just have to keep the faith girls. We will all have our babies!

Cooper-just hang in there sweetie. 8dpo is way to early to test. Trust me, I have taken so many tests that I should buy stock in them!!! I have a feeling that we are going to have a wonderful holiday with lots of + in them.....................

Good morning Cooper and Montie....How are you girls today? Anything new going on? Nothing here. cd30, 10dpo, no af yet. If its coming I think it'll be tomorrow or friday. I'm going to test Sat a.m. Every other month I start testing at like cd245 and spend about $80.00 and am holding them in all different lighting, looking and begging and pleading for the line to change. It has been awful for me, and this month I'm just not doing it. I decided I'd rather wait hopeful for my af not to show and then when its actually late go take my test. Every month af is on time but I waste so much money on those darn tests. So this month I'm not even driving by walmart or I'll go in-lol. My af symptoms of yesterday have subsided so thats good. Lets hope and pray this is our month. Cooper, when are you testing again or have you? how bout you Montie? tttyl, and Hopeful Blessing to us from God above XOXO

Hi Montie... Last night while I was walking down my stairs I fell... I am so worried about it. My DH was really supportive and told me that if it is meant to be for us this month then it will happen. He did say I should be more careful... The good thing is that I only fell on my butt and I didn't really hurt myself at least I hope I didn't. Well my ego maybe... Thinking good thoughts. I am going to take an HPT on Friday. Good Luck to everyone!!!
