Trying to Concieve with IUI #1

[Nicole S]

Hey Kaydee, 4 days away....you guys must of had heaps of fun
Bugger on AF, she is a B***h!! But am glad to hear that you have a plan and the next cycle will bring you that BFP
I hope you are ok, and know that your fellow musketeers are here for you

Belinda, glad to hear that the TWW has not been too hard on you.
Was DH sad and sorry about the Dragons this weekend...My DH went to a bucks night so I didn't get to hear him rant and rave on how crap his team is....

Nite ladies, sweet dreams

[Nicole S]

Paula, I just noticed that you started sniffing today. Congratulations mate!!
I hope it's not too bad for you, but just think you are on your way now....sending you lots of

[*Paula*]

Thanks so much Nicole.. Yes it feels good to finally be working towards that end result

HI Ladies

Well, I am thinking this cycle will end in a BFN for me. I have started to get AF type cramps this afternoon (she is due today) but to date no spotting. Oh well, looks like it will be back to the drawing board!!!

Nicole, DH was a little upset but I was the tyrant this weekend. My team are crap and I'm not happy. Went to watch their pathetic performance at Parra Stadium on friday night and got drenched!

Kaydee, sorry to hear AF did arrive. Heres hoping this next cycle is your BFP!!!

Paula, yippeeee on the sniffing. I bet it feels like you are back in the game now. Hope the side effects are not too much!

Polly, I'm so glad everything is going well for you. I am hoping to join you in a few days, but not feeling too confident at this stage.

Amy and Fi, hope you are both holding up ok. I still have everything crossed for you both

[Nicole S]

Hang in there Belinda , Polly thought AF was on her way but ended up with a BFP.

Hi Ladies,

Thank you all so much for your warm welcome. Yes we are trying for bub #1....all of our friend's are onto bub #2 or 3 but I think that this experience will make us appreciate the precious gift and miracle of having a child.

We have everything crossed at the moment in the hope of a + result tomorrow....not sure that I can go through the process again but DH keeps reminding me that hopefully in 1 or 2 years time having to endure all of the drugs and appointments will be the last thing on our minds.

Still not very positive about tomorrow but AF has not shown as yet and the cramps seemed to have stopped.

Good luck girls!!!

Hi Girls,
This wait is a killer! Hang in there Belinda its not over until AF makes a visit, but I know how you feel, I'm also not feeling too confident now, I have cramps and just generally feel a monster period is on its way!Thursday seems a long way off, oh well going out Thursday night with friends so will be drowning my sorrows or having a very dry night and celebrating!
Good luck for tomorrow Amy, I have everything crossed for you!
sorry to hear AF showed up Kaydee, sending lots of baby dust for this month.
Hope your head aches have eased Nicole, and yes running around after Max definately helps take my mind off the 2ww for part of the day!

Amy, wishing you all the best for tomorrow. Hope your blood test is a BFP!

[Nicole S]

Hey Amy, good luck with your blood test tomorrow
DH is right on the money!! When you are holding that little bundle of joy in your arms all of this will be a distant memory.
We are also trying for #1 and after 3 years and a MC, I surprise myself every day on how strong I am.
I too thought I wouldn't be able to another IUI after our first unsuccessful attempt, but somehow you find strength in yourself to move forward knowing that the end result is what you are working for.
I hope this is your one and only IUI that you have to endure, but if it's not we will all be here for you

Fi, only 3 sleeps for you...back away AF!!
Keep busy with little Max and the time will fly

[BB73]

Amy, good luck with your blood test tomorrow. I have everything crossed for you.

[BB73]

Well Ladies, looks like I'm out! Started spotting this afternoon. I am seeing the FS in about an hour to discuss where we go from here. I am sure he will advise to go ahead with the blood test tomorrow but I am sure it is a BFN.

Amy, any news yet???

[Nicole S]

Hey Belinda, hang in there mate ....back of AF you evil Witch!!
Good luck with the FS this arvo, let us know how you get on.

[Amy M]

Hi Ladies,

Thank you for all of your support but unfortunately it was a BFN

DH is being extremely supportive and is very keen on trying again this month, but I am glad that I still have a few more days to decide as AF still hasnt shown.

Belinda and Fi I have everything crossed for you both

[Kaydee78]

Amy, sorry to hear this cycle hasn't worked. It's disappointing... Glad you have a few days up your sleeve to work out your next step.

Belinda, best of luck tomorrow with your blood test.

Paula, how are you going? Hope you are feeling ok... any side effects yet?

[Nicole S]

Oh Amy so sorry to hear about this cycle did not work out for you.
Take a few days and see how you feel, have you spoken to your FS about doing another cycle?

Belinda, how you going? Hope you had a good chat with your FS and good luck with your bloods tomorrow!!..

[fifi33]

I'm so sorry Amy to hear your news, this ttc is such an emotional rollercoaster, good to hear DH is so supportive, hope he is giving you lots of cuddles tonight.
Belinda I am also sorry to hear AF may be on her way, hope appointment with FS went ok, I still have my fingers crossed for you, its not over till she fully visits.Are you still having bt tomorrow?

Hi Ladies
Well it looks like my IUI journey has ended. AF has arrived and after a lengthy talk with FS, we have decided to go to IVF. I did have my bloods done this afternoon but will still have to wait until tomorrow afternoon for the results. I am confident it will be a BFN.
Much to my delight I am starting the FSH injections on Friday, as I am a perfect candidate for an antagonist cycle of IVF. This means I don't have to go onto the pill first then start the sniffing and wait for the next period. So DH and I are very happy. All up it should only be 4 weeks in length. Quite scary to think it is the next step, but also very excited!!

Amy, so sorry to hear it was a BFN. There are a few of us here that have been in your situation and we know how hard it is. If you can, my advice is to jump straight back into the next cycle. We are all here if you need to vent.

Hope everyone is well and I will check in tomorrow once I have my results.

Sleep Well

[Nicole S]

Hey Belinda, glad to hear you had a good chat with FS and that you will be starting with your back up plan!! Very exciting
What is the main reason to start on a antagonist cycle? I googled for a while and then got confussed.
