Bailey a trigger shot is HCG that is given to trigger the follicle to release the egg.
IUI is intrauterine insemination. The sperm is washed and only the really handsome ones are used! Because the sperm are put into the uterus they don't have as many obstacles so the success rate is higher.
Firstly can I say Lynn that is just so wonderful news about your levels. I can't belive tomorrow is it. I am so glad and happy for you that these trigger shots seemed to be just what your body needed. It is great to hear that wonderful news.
Well now for the sad stuff. I am just in a fowl mood today, I can't seem to move this dark cloud which has been circling me all day. My mind keeps going over and over about Chris and her family. I never met her, but I just feel so affected by this, a real reality check on mortality. I know it is a little selfish to dwell, but I don't know what else to do. I guess helpless is the best way to describe how I feel.
I am also really upset that yet again nothing for Mother's day from MIL. I know it is insignificant in the scheme of things but a card, my god I'd be impressed by an email, but nothing. I said to DH I doubt she even thought of me today because she doesn't consider me a mother and he said that I shouldn't read too much into it. Apparently when he was speaking to her she asked how I was. Wow, I should be estatic I know. I just feel so low, not sure how to get out of this mood.
Thanks Flowerchild, I thought I had the trigger thing worked out. Wow, about the IUI, isn't it amazing what can be done these days? I didn't know they did that. I am positive that Lynn's DH has lots of hansome swimmers to choose from
Lynn - So with the IUI which Deb just kindly explained to me, do you still need to DTD as well just to be sure? I am so excited for tomorrow for you and Hope! I am definetly going to S&K on wednesday along with Tommysmum, I hope to see you there so I can here all about it.
Spring - I have been thinking alot about Chris too, I was telling my mum about her today and then i just burst into tears. It's just horrible. It's more than just sad isn't it? It's just not fair. I am sorry it is getting you down. Same with the MIL, I am sure she just doesn't think - though she can't keep using that excuse for too much longer! Try not to let it get you down.
Hi to everyone else, hope you are all well.
Well, still no action on the OPK....what a surprise. I wonder if they just don't work with me. Well I guess I will just have to keep using the hubby till AF arrives or I get a + HPT.
Deb - thanks for helping me out and explaining the IUI to Bailey. We will be forever grateful for the technology they have now, won't we. Your tree sounds beautiful and perfect
Bailey - yes it is amazing what they can do, for which I am forever thankful. Otherwise I don't know what I would be doing right now! Yes we have been told to DTD as well so there are more chances. No + opk!?!? What CD are you? Perhaps have a bt to see if you have ovulated. I'll see you on Wednesday
Spring - I am sorry that MIL has upset you again. You just need to ignore her and surround yourself with people that care..............like us We all thought of you on mother's day. It is terrible about Chris. I just don't understand how bad things happen to good people.
Jo - your ring sounds beautiful........such a treasure. Even though you are not on the TTC journey for a while, still pop in and let us know how you are going. I hope your iron levels pick up soon and you are back joining us on the bumpy TTC journey :hugs:
Hi to Mel, Nat, Tess, Chelle, Tommysmum, Sarah, Klee and Alex - hope you are all well.
Well Lynn what the hell are you doing here woman?? Get to bed and !! Lol, it's so exciting isn't it? I hope your DH has lots of handsome as Flowerchild said. I cannot wait to hear how it all goes tomorrow. Can I get a BT at the GP to test for ovulation or do I need to go to a gyno or OB?? I never really thought of that, thanks for the suggestion.
