Tonight is day 6 of stims. My E2 came back this morning at 86, so a jump from the lame 13 it was on Monday. I'm cautiously optimistic we are getting back on track. I'll hear the plan from the nurses this afternoon. Dropping more $$ on more meds today :-w
Update: Upping Gonal F again from 225iu to 300iu, keeping menopur at 150. Guess we won't buy groceries in March...NBD.
QOTW: I love Belle's dress, too, but I'll mix things up and go with Elsa's sassy blue dress and show a little leg.
Two DDs 10/08 and 08/10, no primary IF
TTC #3 since 10/2011 - dx unexplained/weak ovulation
3 BFN clomid + TI cycles, 5 BFN clomid/gonal f IUIs, 1 mmc IUI
2/19/2014 IVF #1 Unexpected low E2 (oversuppressed) -> increased to max doses = 3 or 4 follicles, converting to IUI
BFFP Saw 1 beautiful heartbeat at 6w6d, follow up u/s at 9w showed mmc. Eff this.
NTNP 5/2014-9/2014, OPKs and TI 10/2014 - 1/2015.
RPL testing all normal, AFC, AMH, and FSH all normal.
Cycle status: CD 18 (actually had to look at FF for that) natural cycle. H and I have been thinking and talking about next steps. We now have an end date in mind, but we (or really me) have to decide whether to continue natural or seek further medical intervention. QOTW: Hmmm. I really like Cinderella's wedding dress, but Rapunzel's is more my style. Simple and laid back.
BFP #1 12.24.07 - DD born @ 39w1d on 08.26.08 BFP #2 08.04.11 - DD born still @ 37w3d on 03.25.12
1DPO and nervous that it didn't work, I just have a feeling, also just got a text from a friend of mine who is now pregnant with twins after three losses and years of trying. And both babies have heartbeats! I'm so happy for her but can't help but feel a little sad too.
I would wear Ariel's pink dress, she is my favorite princess.
CA after failed first iui. It's a pretty terrible day around here. We were going to sit out next month and do natural if this didn't work but now I feel so determined to keep going and make it work. I haven't told DH yet so that should be a fun convo.
Cinderella all the way! I was obsessed with that movie as a child. Who doesn't love a rag to riches story?
Break cycle. Didn't know what day it was and started spotting so I caved and checked FF and it's CD22. That's early for me so now I'm miffed that my stress-free break cycle actually messed with my clockwork cycle. What a mind eff.
Hm. I really thought Mulan was badass, but I don't know about her dress. Did she even get married? Is it weird that I liked the Disney character who dressed like a boy? If I had to pick a princess, I'd have to go with Aurora. I liked her dresses.
CD15. Psychotically peeing on 3 different kinds of sticks for the monitor and OPK. I think that finally being medicated on my next cycle will make me less psychotic and OCD about ovulation..... Last chance for "all natural" conception. Which I already know isn't gonna happen. Must. Stop. Peeing. On. Sticks.
Cindaf#%kinrella (forgive the Pretty Woman reference).... I think I got pretty darn close with my wedding dress. But like pp, ditch the choker!
Me: 38 DH: 36
Married: July 21, 2013
TTC#1 (between us): June/July 2013
DX: MFI (low count and motility)
Charting/OPK/CBFM July 2013-present
1st RE Visit: January 2014
Cycling:
March 2014- 75iu follistim + trigger + progesterone + IUI = BFN and OHSS
(8 million post wash 47% motility, 18mm/17mm/16mm/16mm/14mm follies)
April/May 2014- Benched due to cysts/enlarged ovaries
So weird I know this but Mulan got married in the second movie. My mom bought it for me when I had my tonsils out because I still, at 26 years old, make myself feel better with disney!
CD 2 doing our first IUI this month. Sadly, I am not feeling very hopeful but kinda feeling like we need to do it to check off our list before moving to IVF.
I would either go with Cinderella or Elsa (after seeing her mentioned)...
Status: nothing to report, still waiting for our next appt.
QOTW: I would pick Merida, she has a nice simple dress that shows a little sexy shoulder. Also really like Elsa and Anna's dresses.
DD conceived after 3 years of ttc.
MFI - DH had varicocele repair and took Clomid to get DD b. 02/2010

CD 5 here and just getting back from vacation and trying to regroup. Looking forward to catching up on what has been going on with you ladies.
I'm feeling so lost, shamed to admit I don't even know who some of the princesses mentioned are... but I would have to pick something not poofy
TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck
Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man. Born 12/2/11
TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended
Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good. Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.
I had planned to call clinic 1 this week to look at what it would take to plan IVF #4 this summer but then I caught this awful cold and have completely lost my voice
QOTW: Mulan, it would compliment DH's culture and it would be fun and flattering I think.
