Hello ladies!!!!

Sending sticky baby dust to every one waiting. My wife and I are patiently waiting to test after our first IUI. I am currently 9dpiui. We have to go on today for my progesterone level testing, then ONE MORE WEEK to go!

Trying not to drive my self crazy with symptoms, but my bbs have been super sore and feel full lately. Fingers crossed that's a good sign.

Wishing everyone the best with their ttc journeys!

Hey all!!!

I'm here to cheer you on all the way! I had my first IUI back in July and am currently preggo with my first, a baby girl.

I had my 28 week apt last week but they just did measurements and blood work. Since I threw up my 3 hour glucose test they checked my A1C and it was completely normal- not even in the pre-diabetic range- so they are considering that passing and will recheck my A1C at 34 weeks.

Jan 12 is our 30 week anatomy scan. I'm excited and hoping they can get a good picture of her little face!

Hoping and praying for all of you!

Kmt - Good luck and hope you both find many things to occupy your time while you wait! That wait sure is a booger!

Hoping - yes, we are doing IVF. We did previously cycle as well, but not with the previous 4 kiddos. I had my tubes tied back in 2005 after my youngest was born and now we are doing IVF due to that. (not to mention, over these past 10 years I haven't gotten younger!)

Keth - I'm so glad to hear the bleeding has stopped! How are you feeling? If you go back in for a follow up ultrasound, when will you know? Or is it only if you experience anything further right now?

Margie - has AF arrived yet? Thinking of you! XOXO

AFM, went in for my OAR test yesterday (they want a new one on file every 6 months while you are TTC). I will likely start birth control today to make sure I'm on their schedule for the Feb cycle date to begin. Can't believe the time is getting closer. Makes me anxious, nervous, excited....pray this one works wonders and we have a successful outcome 9 months later!

Hi Ladies,

I am sorry I have been MIA for a while. In some ways, I have been grieving. In other ways, I have been distracting myself. I am feeling better these days. I have to wait a couple months before trying again and that seems like an eternity, and that makes me very sad. But other than that, I am ok. I try not to allow the negative thoughts to take over. Somedays that is difficult...

I am sorry I don't have time to read everything I missed. I hope everyone is OK, pregnancies are proceeding well, and those approaching fertility treatments are feeling good.

2016 - I really hope this is our year!

Hi ladies. So af arrived last night. So tomorrow I head to the fertility clinic for my baseline ultrasound and CCCT. Not sure what to expect as this is all new to me but thinking an ultrasound with af visiting won't be the most fun. I'm assuming it's transvaginal? It's going to be long day for me. I have to take off work cause the clinic is 3 hours away.

Jfmolo I was surprised by the first ultrasound during af being transvaginal as well but it sure was. Good luck and drive safely! Let us know how it goes!

Bens - I am thinking of you! HUGS! You are doing what you should be by allowing yourself time to grieve as well as keeping yourself occupied the best you can. It isn't always easy and I'm sorry for that. Praying for you that this time passes quickly for you, your heart and body heals well and that you have a very wonderful future with babies soon to come!

Jf - yes, the first time I had an ultrasound during this time I thought man, they can't be serious!?! But they see it all day every day and if they can handle it then so can we :-) It isn't as bad as you would think and keep in mind the goal and why you are doing it! That will help ease the though a bit :) Best of luck!

I was wondering why the last forum was so quiet for the past 3 days - here you are :D

I need to go back and read all the posts but I just want to say welcome to all the new girls :)

Ladies!

AF arrived! It's the first time I've been excited to see her in quite a while... lol. I have my screening appointment tomorrow to make sure we're good to go for all of the meds and my HSG test next Wednesday!
