I am 1DPO... didn't do IUI this cycle. But who knows, maybe it will be the lucky one and want to read what is going on this month with everyone else.

Thanks for starting this. I am still waiting two months to try #4. :(

Opal-Thanks for starting the new board!.

SMC-eeeeekk.....so exciting!!!

AFM-BFN....days 12 and 14 past iui. Meeting with the RE tomorrow to talk about our plan moving forward.

Hey girl... joining you here. I am actually skipping IUI this month but I will be stalking you :)

I'm TTC my second child and not doing IUI or IVF, but hopefully you guys won't mind me hanging around?

essemkay - not at all :)

Welcome essemkay! How long have you been TTC #2M I am ttc #2 as well, it has been 2 years. This is my 2nd cycle with clomid. Last cycle I did IUI with no luck, this cycle I didn't do the IUI bc the goal is to get 2 follies and I had only the 1 again. So next cycle I am increasing clomid from 25-50 mg and hopefully will have better luck.

ma_espe, I've been trying for #2 since July of 2012. Since then, I've done 3 medicated IUIs, 2 IVFs, and 3 unmedicated IUIs and had 1 missed miscarriage at 10.5 weeks, and 4 chemicals. It's been a rough road! My RE is done with me unless we do donor eggs (which we can't afford and my husband doesn't want), so I'm just plugging along unassisted, except for crinone (progesterone) after ovulation.

Sorry to hear that... Do you have a diagnose for the secondary infertility? we were diagnosed with unexplained infertility. Did you have problems with the first one? Our first one was really quick, first time we tried. I think my biggest problem is stress, my little one has autism, and it has been a little bit of a rough road.

We are unexplained. We had troubles with the first one, she took us 12 years (we spent waaaaay too many years listening to the OB before turning to an RE - RE got me pregnant with my daughter within 2 years). Of course, now I'm really ancient in terms of fertility, so we've got that extra strike against us. I ovulate, I seem to have a good number of eggs (but I suspect they're all crappy), my husband's counts are all good. I had some minor endometriosis, but they got rid of that during a lap. I also had a fairly large uterine tumor, but they removed that. Now it seems it's just a matter of finding a lone good egg in the mix before I hit menopause.

Stress sucks, but hopefully upping your clomid will be the answer for you! I'm sure your LO keeps you on your toes!
