Anxious! Updated!

edited April 2014 in Trouble TTC

Just sitting here waiting at the RE for my CD 12 us! Praying for follies on the right so we can move forward with our first iui!!

UPDATE:  So I went this morning for a rescan, and I was right.  The major cramping I felt last night was in fact O pains and all three follies were gone this morning.  My lining was great measuring at 8.4, the tech said she saw fluid in my pelvic cavity indicating that I am "in the ovulation process".  So I go for IUI #1 at 11:30 today!!!!  I am SO thankful that we did a sperm freeze over the weekend because there is no way that hubby can get to the RE in the middle of his work day to give a sample.  I am nervous/anxious/excited!  I think I will treat myself to sushi for lunch, hoping that it is the last time I will be able to do that for awhile ;)

    GL!

    Me: 32  DH: 33  Married: March 2004

    July 2006: started TTC
    2008: HSG (normal), couple rounds of clomid through gyno
    2008 - 2010: dragging my feet out of fear and procrastination
    October 2010: first consultation with RE, dx PCOS and fibroids (DH slightly low count/motility)
    Oct. 2010 - Dec. 2012:  In DENIAL! avoided the issue because I was scared of surgery
    January 2013: returned to RE, fibroids grew significantly
    February 2013: second HSG, fibroids pushed on tubes which blocked them somewhat
    March 2013: MRI to determine what type of surgery may be necessary
    July 29, 2013: fibroids (5) removed via robotic laparascopy
    August 2013 - Nov 2013 : benched due to recent surgery

    IUI #1, Dec. 24, 2013, BFN 
    IUI #2, Jan. 25, 2014, BFN
    IUI #3, Feb. 25, 2014  BFN
    IUI #4 canceled due to lack of response to letrozole
    IUI #4.1 April 28, 2014, BFN
    May 16, 2014: wtf consult, start prepping for IVF in June and add injects for one last IUI in the meantime
    IUI #5 started letrozole and bravelle but canceled after HSG led to new diagnosis
    May 21, 2014: third HSG, tubes blocked, one at the beginning, one hydrosalpinx??
    June 11, 2014: consult, approved to move on to IVF because the hydro is not completely blocked therefore allowing fluid to move through slowly rather than backwards
    IVF #1 August 8, 2014 - 3dt of 2 embryos, BFN
    September 17, 2014 - 4th HSG, the right tube is very patent (open!!) dye went straight through this time. Weird!
    October 2, 2014 - started metformin treatment
    November 14, 2014 - blood work, brought A1C down from 5.8 to 5.5
    November 26, 2014 - RE finally back from vaca and reviewed my chart, no more IVFs for rest of calendar year
    December 1, 2014 - Right after Thanksgiving, I called a new clinic and got in right away! Plan for IVF
    December 17, 2014 - ER! 29 retrieved (!!), 16 mature, all 16 fertilized (ICSI)
    IVF #2 December 20, 2014 - 3dt of 3 embryos, BFN

    Great news about your follies!

    I'm heading to the RE in about an hour for CD11 ultrasound (we're going to be out of town on CD12) to see how I responded to my first round of Femara.  I'm super anxious... I have no idea what to expect since I haven't done any medicated cycles before and I haven't been ovulating on my own.
    Me: 34 - PCOS | DH: 30 - everything looks good!
    TTC #1 since 10/13
    March 2014 - 1st medicated cycle - 5mg Femara CD 3-7 = BFP! EDD 12/26/14

    Ooh that sounds great, I hope it works and you get your Christmas baby!

    I find I can excuse myself for working out due dates because I am just being "responsible" and getting a head start on planning for work, leave, maternity clothes, etc. Re-imagining this each month is one of the few fun parts of TTTC!

    Good luck @haloform! This was my second cycle on femara, I responded better with a dose increase. First cycle only one follie on my bad side, that was 2.5 mg. This cycle was upped to 5 mg. I'm having what feels like O pains on both sides so I'm really hoping that isn't what it is, I'll update tomorrow morning! Have a good evening ladies

    Thank you @FutureMrsBaldwin2012! Good luck to you, too!

    At my US today, I had two follies on my left - one at 16.4 and one at 14.  My lining was 6.8 I think.  Our RE said I will hopefully ovulate later this week.  We're going out of town tomorrow for a week, so I can't go back for any further checks, and won't be doing a trigger shot this time.  We'll just have to see what happens!

    Two follies on the left measuring 18 and 16.5 and one follie on the right measuring 16.5!! Going back tomorrow morning for another scan most likely doing iui on Thursday! I'm praying that this is our month, since I'm a crazy person I have already calculated that my due date would be Christmas Day and that makes me very happy! Hubby says that I am obsessed with Christmas so it would only make sense for us to have a baby on Christmas lol!
    This is sooooo me!

    Congrats on your follies! Fingers crossed and baby dust. 

    Here's to hoping that this is the month for a lot of 3Ters!!! December 2014 Board better watch out!
