Ladies doing IUI or IVF - 2016 (11 BFPs so far!)

1sttimer I'm so sorry xx

Syd - you're not the only one, as I prefer them too. Only they stop my period. Hurt my bank account though!

xMillie I can totally understand the artificial insemination thing xx
 
We did our first go at AI yesterday and tonight. Had peak on clear blue digi opk yesterday so I guess tomorrow is officially tww? It’s so hard to tell if I ovulate sometimes. I don’t temp as don’t do mornings lol. So I’ll just count tomorrow as 1dpo and I’m sure on 15dpo I’ll get my period like always. Hubby was okay with the whole AI process, I don’t think he likes sex for baby making either and he said even if it doesn’t work this cycle we can just do it again.

I haven’t even begun to think about where we go next on treatment or tests.. last time I tried thinking about it I felt overwhelmed and stressed out about the costs. Also was around the time of what would have been due date. It’s weird but I actually feel loads better now that the date has been and gone. Sure it sucks but I’m doing okay at the moment. It’s nice to feel okay.
 
Hey ladies, just wanted to send some thanks to you all for your thoughts, this forum is so good for times like this and you're lovely. As a brief update our little dalliance with possible IVF is now off the table. The clinic have said to put it on the back burner for now and get a referral to a recurrent MC clinic. I finally MC on Monday after lots of pain and a hot bath....and tonight I plan to book a trip to Barcelona for next week. What a difference a week makes! Alas, a week of drinking, eating, laughing and remembering who we are for me and the hubs might just help reset the clock I think.

Anyway, I wanted to wish all of you good luck...Millie I've got everything crossed for your AI but NOOOOO pressure. Keep it chilled (haha as if!) and positive thoughts, remember you don't fall any harder from thinking positively.

Crazycatwoman, Syd, Phonix, Luhappymatters etc etc etc my thoughts are with you all I am rooting for you and will check in on here to see how you're all doing.. onwards and upwards! xx
 
Isttimer, omg I’m realky sad and sorry to hear your bad news. I hope you are ok. I can’t imagine how you feel. Lots hugs your way xxxxxx

Millie, so first round AI fine. Fingers crossed!

I’m 9 dp IUI today really strong cramps, started mild last 2 days. Feel like she’s coming, but 5 days early ?
Lots feelings and pressure/tugging/twinges on my right side.

How is everyone else ? Xx

Good luck CCW. Not long left for you to wait! Do you plan on testing early? Or will you wait? xx


I’m 2dpo today. Little worried we didn’t cover this cycle enough but then it probably wouldn’t make a difference anyway. Hoping this tww doesn’t drag.
 
CCW could be good signs?

Millie everything you write, I could too. Hubby doesn't really like sex for baby making. Thinking about next steps (costs, stress of it all) is depressing and we haven't done it much. Argghhh xx
 
The cramps continue but still no bleed
Yesterday I had a 50p size blob of yellow snotty looking ewcm and then later on a bit of rusty lcoloured ewcm.
Anyone experience this ?

How is everyone ?

Hope this is a good sign, I never had anything unusual with my only bfp, just a missed period and period like cramps for days, but I know it’s different everyone. *Fingers crossed still* xx


Nothing new here. Just the wait til my next period I guess. Done all we could do. I’m pretty tired but haven’t been sleeping well, think I just need some really good nights sleep!
 
I had different CM with my chemical, I think it was similar to how you've described. I didn't have cramps as it didn't implant properly! It all sounds very positive xxx
 
Any news CCW? xx


I feel like I’m just counting down to af.. 5dpo. 9 more days..


I need a forum break again I think.. I probably do myself no favours hanging out in the regular ttc part of the forum. Getting green with envy everytime someone gets a bfp in their first year of trying. I started the May testing thread but it’s not going to do me any good.. I’ll just have to stick running it until the month is up and then keep away from here.

A lot of the ladies I’ve spoke to over the last year or so have got their bfp and they are then gone to the pregnancy threads. I don’t know if they don’t come and say hi to me because they don’t want to upset me or rub it in my face or what? But I’m not going over to the pregnancy part of the forum to find them.. for obvious reasons.
 
Ccw & Millie - good luck to both of you.

Millie - back in 2011 I was a major forum contributor, cheering on everyone in their journey at every stage, offering what I thought was emotional support, commenting on loads of ttc journals... Only to never hear again from those same people as they steamed through tri 1-3, gave birth and completely ignored/forgot about me. Which looking back, makes sense. They didn't owe me anything. I just regard it now a major waste of my life.

Wishing you love xx

Thank you xx

I’ve noticed over the last few months there are ladies that I remember getting their first bfp now trying for second (and not long back one going for their 3rd!). It’s no competition of course.. but I know they’ll be out of the ttc threads again very soon.
Which is great for them. I just wish it were that easy for us all.

13 dpIUI, got this this morning!
I’ve had spotting yesterday, which had gotten bit heavier, still quite dark in colour.
Test day Wednesday but I’m not sure we’ve done it.
 
ccw - that line is pretty visible, I didn't even need to click on the tiny image to see it! I hope the spotting is nothing bad xxx
 
Millie/tinsel, I hear you re the main part of the forum!

CCW, I see a faint line there, everything crossed. I spotted fairly heavily from just before 6 weeks until 8 weeks and a had a tiny bit of spotting between weeks 8 and 9. I'm guessing they've got you on progesterone suppositories, those can irritate the cervix and cause spotting.

Hi and good luck to everyone else.
 
isttimer, I really hope you get some answers from the mc testing and are able to formulate a plan to move forward.

Hey,

I’m so glad things are going good for you.
The bleeding has stopped, it’s day 4 of a real strange bleed. Cant even call it a period.
It was dark to start but it then went to like a watered down red blood colour but very thin like. Not passed any clots.
Not been well today. Strange feelings in my tummy, backache, nausea, very hungry, lethargic and tired.

I’m on progesterone shots as they think my progesterone let me down last time as I was not absorbing it.

Will test in the morning and go from there xx

Huwbus everyone ?
