April-Good luck this weekend!

Dragonfly-Good luck to you too!

BB-Welcome..great group of girls here!

I have also spent lots of money on medicated cycles (injections) and no BFP yet. I have scaled down to clomid this month (4th IUI). If no luck with this cycle or next..we are going to try natural.

This wait sucks as usual. I feel the same as I always do on 7dpo...af cramping..not a lot but noticiable. I wish I had some better symptoms to report but sad to say if feels like all the other months. I am trying my best not to overthink this...I just want it so bad.

Welcome BB- I am not sure if it matters. I would think you would want to try at least a few nonmedicated only for the expense and the craziness the meds bring you. I only produced 1 egg on injections- which is supposed to be the best thing. Look at Cindy- it worked for her.

Baby craz- I am on prometrium too...ahhhh first time and I am not enjoying. It makes you have symptoms that are not there. I have one more week- well week and a half since doc is giving me a hcg booster shot and I have to wait to test.

April- good luck! That is a lot of follies!

Welcome BB ~ You and I have connected in other ways before this post. But I truly believed that since I was not the problem for TTC that doing non medicated cycles would get a result.

Good luck DragonF. & Colette ~ Thinking of you baby dust sticky glue

April ~ Yay for Sunday!

Appears the prometrium causes a 21 day luteal phase! Yikes. Here we go again. Start the clomid tomorrow and CD 12 ultrasound and trigger is 03/29. Really hoping docotr can agree to perform IUI 36 to 40 hours after the trigger shot instead of 24 like this last time. Might not go through with this cycle if he can't.

April good luck this weekend! Hope this is it for you.

I have been connected with this site for a while now and so many of you are inspirations, that I finally decided to join. My husband and I have recently decided to try IUI using donor sperm due to the fact that we cannot afford IVF. I am very nervous as our RE wants us to try 3 cycles without medications. Everything I read points me in the direction of wanting medications from the start, so I was thinking I wanted a second opinion. We have been ttc for over 16 months and our Re told us we could have our first IUI after this cycle. I want to rush things just because it has been so long, on the other hand if I can have faster results using another RE that uses medications from the start I am leaning towards this. Does anyone have any suggestions.

Hope-

I am on the progesterone too. It really does mess with the head. I know it's too early for pregnancy symptoms..just have to keep telling myself that.

Was nerve racking yes in deed. I don't think they will take another one, but I'm excited about the ultrasound on Tuesday. I feel nothing anymore, no symptoms.

Collette- I am with you! I get nervous around 7 & 8. I am on prog. suppositories and they are messing with my head. I am depressed, tired, and cramping. But it is too early to cramp.

Thanks for the kind words. I really hope this is it. Great number Cindy. Do you have to go in again to make sure they are doubling? That was nerve racking for us.

My HCG is 368 today! I'm so excited. Ultrasound Tuesday with my RE. I have no symptoms at all except sore boobs.

Hope and Collete ~ Sticky glue your way. I have a great feeling!

April ~ Getting excited for you.

Hope-

I really pray this is your month..you have been trying so hard and so long..I give you so much credit!! Sending implantation vibes your way!

Cindy-Can't wait to hear that your Beta is going through the roof!!

April-

Good luck this weekend. Your time is coming!

AFM-5 dpiui...mild cramping on and off..normal progesterone side effects. I can usually tell if it's a bust by 7-8 dpiui..that's when the famous AF cramps start..so we'll see! Maybe something different will occur that will just tell me that this is my month.

Looking for women using donor sperm

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 15:01:05 -0500

Hello-

My husband and I have been TTC for three years. We found out after year 1 he was sterile (from a issue when he was a baby). After long process, we decided to use a donor sperm. I was hoping to talk with others on this journey- weather you are single, married or with a female partner.

Me- 4 IUI's with Clomid

3 on Bravelle/Menopur
