Hating the waiting

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 10:25:33 -0500

It's been 8 days since our ET (which was a 3-day transfer). I'm to the point of the wait that is killing me. I'm tired of taking it easy, of looking up every symptom on-line and running to the bathroom everytime I feel a twinge or like I might be spotting. I just want to know and still have 5 days to wait. Ugh. Anyone else waiting right now?

How does egg and sperm donation work????

Fri, 17 Oct 2008 18:49:06 -0500

My fiancee and I where told the other day that we may have to consider egg and sperm donation to get preggers.

Egg donation as they suspect there is a egg quility issue.

Sperm donation if my finacees next trial wash and dna frag dose not improve. He had a really low count at last one and dna frag was 49% and it really needs to drop down to 30% before we are even in with a chance of having successful ivf with the use of his sperm.

Ive looked it up on the net but czant seem to find anything about using donors and the costs related to these. All I know is that if we have friends or family willing to donate then we can use them and it will be cheaper, But atm we cant really thing of any males we'd feel comfortable in asking, we do have some females we could ask tho. Other then this do you have to go on some waiting list or something and take the first eggs and sperm offered to you or can you be 'picky'?

Dr - what do I do now???

Sat, 27 Sep 2008 22:12:52 -0500

I don't know what to do. This is our second miscarriage in 2 months. We started our with HCG # - 4, 20, 28, 63, five days later...95. We obviously aren't doubling in the 48 our rule. We are only 5 weeks along and don't know what to do. Our dr. won't see us until October 10th. He says we aren't far enough along to see anything on the U/S and that we are too involved in this pregnancy and need to relax. Seriously??? This is our BABY!!! And we just went through a miscarriage 2 months ago!!!!

Dr - what do we do now?? I am not bleeding or spotting, no cramping, no nothing. Do we seriously just wait until the 10th to see if there is a heartbeat??? I know the chances of there being a heartbeat are so so slim. I asked my Dr. about ectopic pregnancy and he said don't worry about it, that if it is, there is nothing they can do about it now anyway because they can't see anything in u/s yet anyway.

Shouldn't he be more concerned about this?? He says he won't do anything because our numbers are still going up - even if they are just doubling every 7 days instead of 2!!

Is it seriously all we can do is wait for the next 2 weeks??? I can't even wait 5 min without crying!!!

Any advise??

side effects from finishing provera?

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 23:42:54 -0500

Hey ladies, yep another provera question, sorry I am just trying to figure it all out. I finished 10 days of Provera 2 nights ago. So I am awaiting AF, or possibly pregnant if I did ovulate when I got a positive OPK while taking provera... won't know for sure until either I get AF in the next few days, or I go ahead and take a HPT....

anyways, my quesiton is did anyone have side effects after FINISHING their provera, besides starting AF which I know is supposed to happen lol... but I have been SUPER moody, like crying at the drop of a dime, and soooooooooooooooo tired, and I have to pee a thousand times a day and night... I don't know if these could be signs of AF coming, or side effects of stopping the provera? or possible Preggo already? Any thoughts would be great :) Thank you all for help!!! you are the best!

7 months and waiting

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 09:38:27 -0500

It has know been 7 months trying to get pregnant...and still nothing. It will be a year next month since we have even used any protection at all. This has been a really long journey and very emotionally draining. I know that everything happens for a reason and just to keep trying and not give up. Good luck to all!

anyone on provera?

Sun, 07 Sep 2008 21:28:42 -0500

So, I have 2 nights of Provera left, then wait for AF and start Clomid on days 3-7 of my cycle. Just wondering if anyone is at about the same spot as me in their cycle? Anyone waiting to start clomid? Or finishing up Provera? Or getting ready for AF? I would love to have a cycle buddy?

Condoms??

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 17:20:50 -0500

Ok So here is my thing. I know it is typicaly heard that most people don't like condoms.......

Well I truely hate them. I am wanting to wait another month or so before talking to the dh about ttc again, even tho seeing my prg sil today makes me want to start asap again. All that aside is the pulling out method ok?

We are not going back on b-c b/c of it making me sick, I feel as tho I am having sex with a rubber band when using condoms, and I have been with my husband for 7 1/2 years so I want to go back to enjoying sex with out thee having to be this walk on egg shells feel to it. Sex is suppost to be fun and exciting, but honestly rubber band hanky panky is drying me out.

So advice please on this

Can having a cyst on an ovary prevent a BFP to register?

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 22:04:47 -0500

Dear Dr. Q and Ladies,

A friend of mine told me today that a cyst on an ovary can delay a BFP to register. Is this true? I am curious because my surrogate is at 13 dpo today and still a BFN. I have been crying all day.

13 dpo and crying

Wed, 30 Jul 2008 10:52:13 -0500

Thought I would update and vent my feelings. She is at 13 dpo today and the dollar test is a BFN. I will be going to the store for a FRER, but this just makes me so sad. I knew that there was a chance that the first time would not take, I am probably delusional for thinking that it might. My husband told me little girl to be really good for me today. He found me crying on the bed. I just do not know what to think. Those dollar tests are supposed to be really good right? I haven't tested with a FRER for a couple days. She had possible implantation spotting at 9 dpo. At 12 and 13 dpo (today) I have been using dollar tree tests. I know that there is still a glimmer of hope, but it is fading quickly. She is breaking out on her face...which might not be anything but makes me think that AF might be coming tomorrow. I just do not know. If it doesn't take this cycle, will try again. We decided before this journey began that we will try a maximum of 3 times and then think of other things. I have company coming over tonight, an 8 month pregnant (18 year old) woman who confuses surrogacy with asking people for their unborn babies. I really just don't feel like dealing with her today. her baby shower is Saturday, think I shall skip that too. She isn't a close friend, her boyfriend is though. Anyway..this is just how I feel today. She is still having symptoms but could be progesterone. Thanks to all who reads this, this is just feeling pretty difficult right now.

Dilusional and Hopeful

Mon, 28 Jul 2008 13:02:57 -0500

We are now at 11 dpo. I sware I am going blind and dilusional at these sticks. I have stared at them , manipuleted the light, took them outside, tore one apart..lol. I know it is early. the more time passes I keep telling myself that the better the chances are to see a BFP. However, I am also worried that because the more time passes there is more of a chance that there will not be one. I know..crazy thinking. It is just that the HPT boxes say that 50 some percent register at 10 dpo, 76% at 11 dpo. Does that mean that there is only a 24% chance she is pregnant if it is a BFN? Ugg. She has been vomiting, temps normal but staying high range, leg cramps last night, nausea bad, cramping getting better now, a pink spot at 9 dpo, dizzy at 5 dpo, bad cramping at 7dpo and 9 dpo. She is tired and hungry today. The signs are so right, but the second line will not show up. Patience is not what I have..except for saving that EPT Certainty Digital Test for when I actually see a freaken line. I do not know how some woman can do this for month after month at a time. This has to get really heavy on the heart after a while. We tried in a 4 day window on 3 days of actually trying. For those of you who are curious..no my husband did not have sex with my surrogate. That is plain stupid and wrong. Baby Dust!!

12 days after first iui

Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:45:40 -0500

We've been trying to conceive for about 6 years (between deployments) with no luck. I recenty had an HSG test (OUCH!!) and 3 rounds of Clomid. After no luck we did 9 days of Gonal F and an HCG injection. 36 hours after the HCG injection the IUI was complete. I'm still in the 2 week waiting pergatory (12 days) and very anxious to find out if I'm pregnant. So far my only symptoms are heavy breasts w/sore nipples, very slight "pings" of pain in the lower abdomen, exhaustion, and today dark brown spotting started. I just want to know what the results are. Can anybody give me some confidence that I should expect a positive test in the next couple of days?
