This cycle has not been nice to my ladies. :(
Allison and Darian, hugs to you both! I think you should both ask to have your dosages increased to try to make more than one follicle.
Darian, it is very remotely possible that you still didn't ovulate after the trigger, but not likely. The only way to know for sure is to have a 7dpo progesterone check done. I'd ask for that, and also see if they would be willing to give you a higher dosage of trigger.
Allison, have you looked into any of the places that help fund IVF? Maybe you could apply to see if you qualify for a free one?
Mrs.F, I would actually do an IVF cycle rather than multiple injectable cycles.
As for adoption, we are going to adopt from our foster care system. We won't get matched with a newborn (unless one comes with a sibling pair), instead we will be looking into getting matched with a younger child (up to 3 years old) who already has parental rights terminated. My heart, and my DD's, would never be able to handle fostering to adopt and having to return a child to an unfit parent.
I do know that newborn adoption from a private agency can cost upwards of $20,000.
Sharayn, hang in there. There is nothing easy about fertility treatments.
AFM, my HSG was this morning. It went well. Didn't hurt at all and didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. My neck started to spasm this morning and the muscles on the right seized up, so I can barely turn my head.
Next week we go for the mandatory IVF info session and then all our must-so's will be checked off. Then it is just waiting for the clinic to fit us into their schedule.
Hugs all my ladies!

Melissa, we'll look into IVF in the future. I'm trying to take things one step at a time at the moment. I'm not sure we're ready to jump to that quite yet. It was only our first IUI. I'm glad your HSG went so well. Keep heat on your neck and stretch it!
Doctor's office just called, negative beta. We already discussed putting me on 150 mg Clomid, upping it from 100 mg, if we did need to do a second IUI. So just stopping progesterone and waiting for AF now. Those positives on 9 DPO really messed with me this cycle.
Onto IUI #2. At least I won't be having a new years baby. It would me my last choice in time of year to have a baby. So I guess that's a positive.

Hi Ladies!
I thought I would join this discussion. DH and I have been TTC since June of last year. This would be my first and DH's 2nd. We have gotten pregnant twice since TTC; however, we had one CP at 4wks and a MMC at 9wks.
Today I'm 12DPO and really feel out this month. Had some brown spotting yesterday (which is unusual) and my temps are still high; however, my hpts are BFN so I'm losing hope.
On the bright side, 2 weeks ago I had my first appointment with my RE and she has a plan for us. This next cycle, we are going to use Clomid or Letrozole, HCG Trigger, and timed intercourse to see if that helps.
I use the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor (CBEFM), Wondfo OPKs as backup, and BBT - which I track on FF.
I wish everyone the best and hope we all get our much desired BFPs!
