Hi I am 3 DPO. This is my second cycle trying to conceive through IUI. I am 36 years old. i will be glad to be your buddy through this tww. I have had surgeries to remove multiple fibroid tumors ranging from 2cm to 8cm in size. Doctor was able to save my uterus but now ultrasounds shows a thicken uterine lining that is abnormal. I as well fear that age is against me and worry my uterus is too beat up to conceive.

Hi Rohrer79

Wow, sounds like you've been in the wars. Do you get any symptoms when ovulating? I've had a dull ache in my left side since just before O'ing and twinges, not sure if I'm just imagining it because I want it to work so much! My boobs have also been tender since Monday. How are you feeling?
My sister-in-law is currently in her second cycle of iui too, so hopefully we'll all have luck on this cycle! This is like the longest two weeks ever!! X

Hello Everyone.. I am at 6 dpo today. I have been trying for a year now, however got pregnant 6 months back, which ended up in an early miscarriage. I hope this month has lots in store for us... As of now I am at 6dpo and my temps are still high. Also having severe cramps on my left side since morning. Is any one of you experiencing cramps now?

Hi everyone,
I'm 32, this is my 2nd cycle TTC but first time temping BBT and using OPK tests. I'm at 10DPO/CD22 today (AF not due until 5 days). I've been cramping since 5DPO but it's mild. Any of you ladies taking your BBT?

Natfaye, how's it going so far? Sorry I just saw you wrote back. I didn't realize I had to follow post to get notifications ????. To answer your question, Yes I can feel when I am ovulating. I feel pulls in the ovary just about the time I O. I feel it the day before and the day of. So are you having any symptoms? I am actually feeling very normal this time around. the only thing I have really noticed was some cramping yesterday During my ride home. I only felt about 4 small cramps then it was done. Keep me posted on how you are doing.

I forgot to mention that I am now 8DPO. I plan to test at 14 if I can hold off until then. I just don't want to test to early and get a false positive from the trigger shot.

I've not been checking my BBT, just used an OPK, because I had such strong Ov symptoms, I kind of knew exactly when it was happening. I had cramps from approx 2dpo in my left side and this carried on pretty much constant until Sunday (6dpo) when they seemed to get worse and then have now eased off. I've had tender bbs for a week now too, and AF not due until Tues 17th. Currently approx 10dpo, felt a bit down last night tho, mood swings are defo in force!

I wish I had your patience Rohrer, I made an epic mistake and tested on Tues (8dpo) couldn't resist, BFN obvs but I am now going to try and hold off until Monday (14dpo).

Update...

So AF has decided to surprise me on Friday 13th and show up 4/5 days earlier than expected - thanks for that, NOT!!

Never mind, on to the next cycle we go......

Good luck everyone else on their current cycle...

Bummed out today. Took a pregnancy and I got a negative. Due to start AF soon. Well there is that. I have an appointment with fertility specialist Wednesday to discuss next options.
