Trouble TTC

Crazy IF dreams?

I've been super busy at work and have a lot of catching up to do on 3T! I feel withdrawal when I can't stay caught up on the board, but I'm stuck at home on call this weekend so I hope to get caught up soon.. Anywho, possibly a fun topic: anyone have any crazy IF related dreams? I am very much a stress-dreamer (if that's even a thing) and by that I mean when I'm anxious about something, I have wacky dreams about it. I thought I was doing ok as we approach our next IUI sometime next week, but apparently I'm subconsciously stressing. Last night I dreamed that we went for the IUI, but that DH's sample was terrible (we are MFI in real life) as in no sperm terrible. So, in my dream, somehow one of my partners at work volunteered, very persistently, to be our semen donor. WTF, dream brain?? He, I, and two others share ownership of our business. He's 20 years my senior and sure, he's attractive, but where in the heck did that come from? So of course at work all day today I had had all these super awkward thoughts about the dream. Good grief!! Anyone else have stupid crazy IF-inspired dreams?

Re: Crazy IF dreams?

  • I had a dream about injections one night, it was right before I started my injects cycle. I dreamt that I had a huge air bubble that I didn't push through before injecting myself...owwww...then I dreamed I injected a whole vial and not just the few IUs...there was another one that involved IUI and sperm, I remember that it was really funny, but for the life of me can't remember what happened. I need a dream journal, I have such crazy vivid dreams these days.

  • @chicory awkward...!!! haha

    The dreams I have always involve me somehow already having a baby but somehow I'm in a situation where the baby is taken away or I'm afraid people think I'm not taking care of the baby well. REALLY WEIRD. That can't be my subconscious but maybe that's just how I feel... like the baby(ies) I was supposed to have was taken or something. I haven't had anything related specifically to IF procedures that I can think of.

    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

    We are done with treatment unsuccessfully. :(
