Nellym how did you BT go, oh I can't wait to find out, I so need to here good news, even if it isn't my own.
Albi goodluck tmw with the insemination, hope all goes smooth sailing.
Well I just want the week to be over, more crappy news, the 1 follie has only grown 2mm, so more bloody injections for me and I have the trigger shot on monday. Why can't my body just do what it is supposed to and make something in my life easy. AAAAAHHHH (sorry for the rant) I'm just over it all not working. Hoping for a better week next week.
epayne - sorry to hear your body isn't co-operating... its so frustrating huh! so are you having IUI on Wednesday?
AFM - Well my 1st IUI experience has been very good so far. I was lucky enough to respond very well to the Puregon injections and was only on 50units! By CD8 I had 3 x 13mm lead follies and lots of little ones... by CD11, one of the leading follies dropped right off and had 1 x 17mm and 1 x 13mm... I triggered on CD13 and had my IUI last Monday (CD15) so im now in the 2WW... Doc was happy with DH sperm, he put 10million in me with 99% motility! I think that when i had the IUI the follies would have been 24mm and 19mm so hoping that we caught one! Fingers crossed... going to be a long wait!
Hope everyone else is OK, we need some BFP's in here!!!! xx
T-Hopes, GL waiting for the next week, hopefully time will fly for you and you get postive news. I'm not actually doing the full IUI process. As DH's sperm is perfect we do everything but the insemination. When I have the trigger shot I have a 48hr window to DTD and hopefully catch the egg (sorry for TMI). We spoke to our FS this morning and we are going to give this way 1 more cycle if this one doesn't work and then go the full IUI process. Hope this makes sense.
ah huh! Yes it does make sense! Good luck with it all! Hoping to hear of some BFP's in here soon! This is our 1st IUI but we are going to do IVF next cycle.
I actually had a very teary day. I POAS in the morning before the BT just to prepare myself, then when she actually stuck the needle in I started crying. I think the lady thought I was being a sook. But it was more the realisation that I was sick of being used as a human pin cushin when I know the outcome isn't good already. Then in the afternoon I rang DH to get me some pain killers on the way home from work and the lady that answered the phone (she knows what is happening) asked if I had any good news, I just started crying again. That is the worst part about getting the bad news at the exact time that AF is due, it is emotional enough without having the added AF hormones to add to it.
Then to top it off, today I got an invite to a friends Baby Shower..... I know I have to go, but I really do not want to be around pregnant people at the moment. In fact, I go out of my way to avoid them.
I go and pick up my next round of drugs tomorrow, ready for round 3.
T-Hope, 10mil is great. My first round DH only got 3mil good ones and they told us it would be IVF next. Since we didn't have the money for that we decided to try IUI again and this round there was 15mil good ones. It was such a dramatic jump, we were racking our brains trying to work out what had happend in the previous 4 months for the 1st round to be so low. We remembered that DH was going through alot of stressful changes at work.
Epayne, I hope you are trying to relax through your 2ww. I know had to hide the computer because I was just obsessing over every little twinge. I think I set myself up for the disappointment.
Hey Nellym, how is the TWW going? Any more symptoms?
AFM - Going for scan tomorrow to see how this months follicle is growing..I thinking if this month DH sperm count comes back low again we will move onto IVF...a little daunting but Im abit over the whole process. I dont even know what the process is, so Ill be asking FS about IVF tomorrow
Hope everything is going well!
xo
Nellym oooo half way through your TWW, hope you are coping well and not thinking about to many signs. Oh and I have everything crossed for you.
Albi hoping your scan goes well tomorrow and that DH's sperm has improved. That is something I am sort of thankful for with DH having no issues. GL hun will be thinking of you tomorrow.
Well I had my CD14 scan this morning and I had an improvement from last cycle. I have i follie on my left side that is 9mm and heaps of little ones on my rigt ovary. So I have to keep jabbing and go back and have another scan. So hoping that I will get the trigger shot as we are travelling down to tamworth on the weekend to see my sis. Also DH is coming with me to discuss our next step if this cycle doesn't work. SO looks like you and I Albi have got some decissions to make.
Big congratulation T-Hopes!!! I think that will all give us hope. Have a lovely pregnancy and baby!!
Epayne sorry to hear AF showed! Goodluck with October
NellyM I hope your IUI works!! Fantastic count with DH swimmer! Fingers crossed for you!
AFM AF showed up yesterday so here's to round 2! Started clomid today. Positive is that this last cycle I had no spotting which is a first! I think the lap and clean out did the trick! Now here's hoping for DH to have a better count this month. Have religiously been pumping the menevit into him keep you all posted!
Albi - sorry to hear that AF showed up for you. Hopefully you will be joining me and Epayne celebrating in Nov when we all get BFPs. I know last month you had low results on your DH's swimmers. I just wanted to remind you that my DH's results were round 1 = 3mil, round 2 = 15mil and then this time for round 3 = 21mil. So hopefully you will see some improvement too. Just think positive and give him lots of praise (they like that), my DH had this clever little grin after I told him the results for the last 2 rounds. He was really down on himself the first cycle. I can imagine it would have been a bit of a blow to his masculinity, they already feel violated having to go in a cup. Of course they feel violeted yet we are the human pin cushins and constantly having strangers stick things in our HooHoo. I always chuckle though thinking that our child will be conceived via a threesome - me, dh and the nurse. BAHAHAHAHA
Epayne - what can I say? good luck. I hope you are coping ok with the clomid, I have heard it can be pretty hard on the side effects. What is the pregnyl for?
AFM - well obviously I haven't survived staying off the computer... Although I haven't been too bad, I am only like 3dpo so I am ignoring every little twinge because i know it is absolutely nothing. Too early for any kind of symptoms.
Nellym, best of luck with waitig, I think all we do is wait and it takes a toll on our minds. I have gonal f injections to help along with the clomid. For me clomid doesn't do anything by itself, so I need to have the injections to get my follies to grow.
Albi hope the menevit helps with DH and you get your BFP too this month.
Well off to the FS tomorrow morning to start the jabbing again. Oh and Nellym, the side effects have been ridiculous this cycle, I have been easily anoyed and DH did admit tonight he was just about to snap a couple of times at me Well FX'd for everyone to here some good news.
Well, today I am 7dpo and I have been religously looking for symptoms.... I have had lots of twinges but I had them last month too. The only thing that has been different (from memory) is this morning I had a little bit of CM when wiping. It was kind of clear and smooth not glugy or by any means excessive. I am not really sure what to think of this. I guess though there is nothing I can do but wait.
I hope you both are coping ok with your drugs in the lead up to your procedure, you must be getting close.
Wondering if I could join you? We're with monash clayton & due to start our first inject / iui cycle in 2 wks. Ive got my next FS & nurses appt on monday & then just waiting for af, only spanner in the works is dh is away for work from around cd5 so fx we can get an appt in the next 2 wks to freeze a sample otherwise we'll have to wait until next year as following cycle 0 would be around boxing day
Albi - Best of luck for round 3 - hopefully 3's a charm
Hi Garfield & welcome! I might bump into you on Monday as & am back there at 1pm for my insemination! The FS will tell you what the best course of action is. Issue is they close from about the 18th December or so....
Liz - Hope you are well, will see if you posted in the other thread.
AFM - Trigger shot tomorrow, then insemination on Monday then the 2ww :S FZ this works for us
thanks for the welcome. Good luck for monday! im there at 12, yes i thought they'd close around there, thats why im really hoping we can do a sperm freeze for this cycles iui. Af is due 17th nov so we'll be starting this cycle, but it took 3wks to get the SA appt so im worried they'll be a wait for a sperm freeze appt, guess ill find out on monday. Im hoping giving we'll miss the following cycle they'll be able to fit him in, fxx
