Hey kmksmd that you and hubby survived the trigger! Our emotions are so ALL OVER THE PLACE during this journey!
So what happens now that you triggered? When do you go in for retrieval?

writergirl - sorry to hear AF showed up. Hang in there, we all know how though it is. Was this . your first IUI?

two+1 - it's still somewhat early. My sister in law tested 10dpo and nothing. Got a very faint + 13dpo

kmk - lololol... Did you not triggr when you had IUIs? I remember my first one too. The needle seems so lng compared to all the tinly little ones for stimming. I'm doing PIO now so I get to inject myself there every single day. Fun fun fun. Back to the gatorade thing - I think the whole point is not to drink water. This may be the only case where water is actually not good for you. I wish I could remember exactly why but if you do a little research online there is a lot about it. Something about water flushing you out and gatorade with sodium retaining it... Don't want to be wrong so not gonna say much. When is your retrieval? So excited for you! Everything you are writing including the numbers is very similar to mine. We also did ICSI on all of them.

My transfer is tomorrow at 1PM. I'm not as excited as I was with my first one. Just being realistic and trying not to get my hope up too much. Maybe because of last months chemical.

Jandei, I actually never did IUI. Because of our genetic issue and the severe oligospermia we skipped over IUI at the recommendation of our RE. So no, even though this is our first assisted reproductive cycle its IVF. So triggering is totally new to me! Every part of this process is totally new to me. I was told to stay hydrated so I'm just drinking a ton of fluids and peeing every hour... practicing for pregnancy! ;-) Retrieval is tomorrow morning at 10 am. I'm drinking fluids now in preparation for nothing by mouth after midnight. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Here's to Jandei's transfer and Kmksmd's retrieval! Whoo-Hoo! Tomorrow's a good day

Good luck tomorrow girls!!!
I am havibg my second beta test tomorrow as well. :)

I will totally keep my fingers crossed for you!!! Good luck and be sure to let us now right away how it went :)))

I will. You relax and stay positive. This is your cycle!!!

Oh just realized. Tomorrow is a big day for 3 of us kmk retrieval, ma_espe beta and a transfer for me. Best of luck ma_espe, can't wait to hear how sky high your #s will be
