@Alex. I agree with Russian. If you and your husband can afford one; just one IUI then by all means go for it. It's still going to be your husband's sperm and your egg and who knows, you may end up with more than one. You don't know what will happen. If I wasn't on the fence about progesterone cream. I could of had my baby on either near my husbands or my birthday. But I wouldn't change a thing about my son as he was born on my brother's birthday. God works in mysterious ways.

Try this out (anyone reading this), from 6-9dpo (implantation time); any noise you hear, speak to it. I say this as you don't know what's actually going on inside; if you or you guys are in there; you latch on and you latch on strong. You are strong and can fight this (based on how long sperm lives in the body); and then speak life into it (loved, wanted and cared for). Sorry for rambling but this is my experience. I had a pregnancy scare back in early October and again, a one time chance BDing and I didn't start the progesterone cream until two cycles ago. I was two days late, and cervix was closed. I freaked out in fear saying, please God no as I was still on the fence of having another baby. The next day AF came. I even bought FRERs to take the next day but didn't get to use it until my last cycle.

AFM, after my long story lol. My hubby is a little overwhelmed with everything that needs to get down and now I am unsure of what route to go; wait till things are close to being done (new house/Will) or proceed with #3 and hope to get the other things done at the same time. The longer you wait (age) the complications (down syndrome, etc.) are higher or have a healthy baby. The uncertainly is the unknown. I will be 36 this September and my max is three kids and that's it; unless I have twins lol. Night all and stay safe.

E Yes girl!! I’m so so happy for you! This is so exiting and I cannot imagine how happy you guys must be! I’m sending all my positive thoughts for a sticky bean and a healthy and happy pregnancy!! Keep us updated!

Punk Hi babe! Welcome back. I really hope you’ll get a wonderful Mother’s Day present! I have a feeling that this might be your cycle

Russian I’m so sorry love for your father! I know you didn’t mean to be insensitive and I didn’t felt this or got mad at you. Not at all. I just cannot compare cancer with infertility in my head.
I’m sure your little one will fill your life with joy and love and event though your dad is not around I’m certain that you’ll do anything to pass to your child everything your father taught to you! The hole may never fill but the love will multiply!

Dragonfly Aw hun I can feel that you have so much stress about it! Please try to push away all the negative thoughts and just remember that after your two beautiful children you will certainly have your third one soon! It is that sometimes things have to fall in place! I’m sure your bfp is very close!

AFM I don’t really know if I ovulated yet since my temps are still the same. I usually have very strong ovulation pains and so far I haven’t got them and I don’t have breast pain which I usually have at 1dpo so I’m almost positive that I haven’t O yet! Still waiting I guess!!

Happy May everyone

Aww... My anxiety is pretty high right now. My test this morning is LIGHTER than my test two days ago. It could be because I was very dehydrated after shopping when I took the first test, but still. My line is faint this morning, at 14 dpo, with fmu, and I am just really scared that this is going to be another chemical boobs not as tender either. Temp still high though.

@E. Try not to stress out hun. Sometimes the HCG is different at different times. I always thought when the day you implant; to check the time and go from there. So if you implanted late at night or in the morning. Try testing then. Maybe it's a myth; I am not sure. Relax. Also, symptoms come and go whenever. Take a day off testing and test the next day. I obsessed with testing after my last pregnancy but had to stop because of my anxiety of seeing the lines. I hope this helps.

Arrgh... Tested again this afternoon, even lighter than this morning! I'm also seeing the familiar cm that I get right before AF. I think I'll probably wake up with my period - I'm convinced this is another chemical! I hope to God I'm wrong, but if I'm not than at least I know my baby is in Heaven with his/her sibling.

E I really hope this is not the case hun! I’m sending all my thoughts

@E congratulations And praying for you.

@Russian welcome back. You are so close and almost there. Praying for safe delivery.

@Dragonfly fingers crossed as well.

@mill I understand your frustration. But you know it will happen. your body will remember. Don t lose faith even when it s hard. We are here for you

@Alex I will check the Perkins in YouTube but I think this will do you good. It is nice to know that you are not alone . I am all for natural with a nodge for science if necessary but I respect your beliefs and decisions too. It will happen God's willing. Praying for you.

AFM just tired. Also ready for school to be over. Still have about 6weeks to teach. I might be failing my own classes too. I am trying to stay strong though. And I feel blessed to have my supportive family and you guys. I don t feel comfortable with states opening already. We will have to be even extra careful now. Please stay safe.

Lalou Yes please be careful! People are very tired from the quarantine and now that things are slowly open they won’t remember the dangers any more and everyone is jumping on your face!

My temps finally got up today and my usual 1dpo breast pain is here so I certainly ovulated yesterday. Our bd timing is ok and I’m pretty sure I ovulated from my good side! I used preseed like every other cycle but I couldn’t use it or our yesterday’s BDing. Hubby is taking his maca but I believe this will take a while to work. At this point I’m having my fingers crossed that my time has come!

Hey gals - unfortunately I have to rescind my exciting announcement from a couple days ago - our little one has gone to Heaven already! We named him/her Jo, and will always remember our two little ones who are waiting for us up there now. Thank you for our prayers, and for sharing our joy in this little soul, no matter how fleeting it's earthly journey was! Hopefully our rainbow is just around the corner. ???? ????????

@E. I'm so truely sorry. Praying for your rainbow baby will happen soon.
