HAPPY VALENTINES DAY LADIES! Went to the doc on Friday and had an ultrasound done- they can see 16 follicles growing which is great news- but my estrogen levels are dropping quick after ovulation- so that makes my lining not a s thick as it needs to be (so I am not ovulating a "healthy" follicle- it's like throwing a dart at a balloon that has not been blown up) so I will be put on estrogen after our first IUI on Friday (I am still taking the Femera).

I am so happy to hear that everyone else is on their path for their BFP- maybe it will happen for all of us deserving and wonderful ladies this month (FINGERS DOUBLE CROSSED)

After talking to my doctor I realize that no many people discuss their "infertility issues" publically and that is why it is hard to find people to relate to. Know that I am in all of your corners and I am rooting for all of you! We all have wanted this and DESERVE this.. Always remember

"EVEN MIRACLES TAKE A LITTLE TIME"
and
"SURRENDER TO WHAT IS, LET GO OF WHAT WAS, HAVE FAITH IN WHAT WILL BE"
We all could use some words of encouragement sometimes! Lots of to you all and know that "YOU NEVER KNOW HOW STRONG YOU ARE UNTIL BEING STRONG IS THE ONLY CHOICE YOU HAVE"
Sending you extra love on this day!

Adamswife, what you said are so nice! Yes people dont discuss about their ttc path, i am the one that talks about it very easily! It makes me feel better when i talk about it. The only persons i dont say anything about it, are the ones that might be very stressed and worried, like my mom and the ones that tell me bs! I have a relative who is very wise and she always tell me thingsb that are not so helpful, like.... "Dont expect to have positive results after iui..." or "you paid so much for the iui, you should have done it to the public hospital". "What are you going to do after your af comes?" (she has told me this after iui). Thats the girl i don t want to share my ttc process, but unfortunately she is very close relative that i cant hide everything!
Best wishes to all of us! I really want bfps this month!

Mpiddy- I don't think your out yet. I still have nothing, no sore BBS or anything. Even the cycle I got Pg and miscarried last summer I had sore BBS early on and was tired and had heartburn. I have absolutely nothing. I guess I'm still feeling some pelvic things thougH and my uterus is feeling kinda full but maybe I'm just symptom spotting. They only thing I really notice from the progesterone is that I'm more tired during the day. Im ready to POAS too! We're halfay there (let face it, I may get antsy and take a test at 12 DPO but I'm trying to wait until at least then). Hang in there!

Adams wife- that's great you have so many follies! I hope the estrogen does the trick for you and you get a baby or 2 out of it . I wish my RE monitored my follicles so I had an idea if I even had any ( or if I did if they looked good) but I have to travel 3 hours to see the RE so I believe thats why I don't get as much monitoring. I have a job that has been flexible but I don't get that much flexibility.

Dear friends, i have a question, i am 6 dpiui and the last 3 days i have too much cm, is the progesterone causing this? I take it from the vaginal and it might be the pill itself coming out?

Kethreys-I don't have ANY cm (I am 7 DPIUI) and I usually have some after ovulation so I have been wondering why. But I also am taking progesterone suppositories and have noticed some coming out. I insert it before bed so not much comes out at night but I do notice during the morning there is still some coming out. But I can tell its not CM cuz it looks different

Yes, it might be the progesterone because it is very thick and at white. I take one before going to bed and one in the morning.

Hey ladies - sounds like at least one or more will be testing soon? When are you guys testing?

AFM - I think i ovulated today. I had some pain earlier, but it has subsided. SO hopefully those six follicles are NOT fertilized, or that one or two are but none of the others. YIKES. So we had sex late Wednesday, the sperm were 3-4 days old, so I'm thinking chances of me being octomom are really low at this point. I'm hoping at least.

Think you will be fine

Thanks, @Texasgirl! (-:

whileamwaiting, i think too that everything is ok!
As about testing, I am still 7dpiui and due to hsg shot of 10.000 units, i should test after 22nd of February.
