I will definitely look that supplement up! He has been taking maca for a few months also. But don't think it was much help. Did help with sex drive though lol I am sorry that ivf is not an option for u either. It makes me so mad that infertility is just swept under the rug and not made important to these insurance companies. It's a disease. We suffer everyday. Have u tested yet? Wasn't u at 11dpiui yesterday?

I don't know maca, i have seen it sold here, but i was suggested to take the Lambert's. Profertil is very expensive but the doctor actually suggested it. My cousin was TTC for 2-3 years and it did the job! Also l-carnitine.

I'm doing my iui next wednesday probably..

Don't worry about the 3 million it just takes one little swimmer to do the job! Keep faith and try to be loving to your dh, it's the first think that matters.

Good luck keep us posted!

@mommadoll I have no idea what I am any more lol its been a long day. Tested this morning but negative my re told me Nov 19 so I'm hoping it's still possible but I feel doubtful at this point. And I know what you mean about the insurance it's a medical condition why shouldn't it be covered.

I'm hopeful for you girl! Not out till the witch shows! And sometimes even then...you can get a bfp. My mom had a period w me till she was 5 months. She didn't even know she was pregnant due to this and plus her tubes were tied so I was a big surprise at 4 months in lol. I'm always afraid that will happen to me so I test after my af too just to be sure ;) my sister also had hers for 7 months! Hope it don't run in the family lol I am only 1 dpiui gosh I hate waiting! I feel more positive today. Had alot of cramping on my right side and in my thighs not sure if it's just from the iui or what. Did u have cramping after your iui?

I did have cramping after my first iui. I was having all sorts of pain. Clomiphene, hcg shot and progesterone gave me all the pregnancy symptoms! It's the bad thing with the medicated cycles, you get symptoms from the medication. I have IBS and was having cramps from that also!

I hope yours are pregnancy cramps!

The cramping has mostly stopped today, but i woke up with lower back pain. its all the way across the bottom of my back, and wraps around to the sides of my belly under my rib cage. I hate this crap lol i wish there was a test that could tell you like as soon as you bd if it was a go or a no go for the month...gosh wouldnt that be awesome!!! tested this morning to see if trigger was any lighter, and it was just barely lighter than it was 3 days ago! when will it fade away into a bfn? anyone?

My trigger took close to maybe 9 days post to be gone. I got my true positive 7dp3dt. Id say it will be beneficial to find something to help pass the time, a new book, holiday planning etc. Lol. At best, your embryo wont be a blastocyst until next Sunday. Then it could take several days from then before you get any preg symptoms from hcg presence. The progesterone drove me nuts with the cramps. You'll survive, trust me! Baby dust!

i agree...i am planning on baking a new recipe almost every night. i love to bake sweets especially around the holidays. it calms my nerves :) I am not on progest supp but was kind of hoping my re would of let me try them this cycle, especially since i have had 2 chemicals in the last 3 years.

Well if your progesterone levels were fine when they checked them, then that may be why. Since mine was IVF, I had the whole gamete, estrogen patches, prog supps and oral pills, steroids, and all. That's a good thing that your ovaries are producing enough on their own though!

I love sweets! I do like baking certain things, but baking is much more time consuming for me. I'm more of a cook, chop, and dump. ..voila! Look forward to spending time with family and friends this holiday!! Save me some cake!

i am all about the easy and quick recipes lol i am better at baking instead of cooking so i guess thats y enjoy it so much lol i will definitly save you a piece ..or several pieces lol ;) i really hope your ivf works for you! gosh...i wish i could do ivf. increasees your chances alot better than iui. but then again i believe when its your time to have a little one you will no matter what the circumstance
