Re: (((IUI Check-In July 8)))

    @Kcheese I could not agree more...the 2ww is very slow this time around. AND yes, it is less stressful for DH and I as well. I hate to say it but I kinda miss the "symptoms" from the last time because for some odd reason, it gave me a little bit of hope. Probably sounds a little odd... BUT, it does feel good to feel normal and not stress so much about it.

    Keeping my fingers crossed for you and @rainbowbridge14!!!!

    My IUI left me in better spirits.  I have been really bummed the last few days because I just didn't think we had much chance this cycle.  But when the nurse got the speculum in, she was very pleased and said I had a ton of mucous at my cervix, and that meant my lining had improved!  The estrogen and HCG must have helped!!  So, my beta is 7/26!!  So, I've regained my hopefulness!!

    @BananaPancakes02 - I agree, it's very reassuring to get positive feedback from the RE staff!  The NP who did my IUI said the same thing as yours (that there was plenty of cervical mucus).  It felt kind of weird to get so excited about that haha!  My beta is 7/24 - 2 days before yours so we are pretty close cycle wise!  Here's hoping that we stay in good spirits and continue to get encouraging signs.

    Me 34   Him 33

    Me - Left salpingo-oophorectomy at 19 due to large cyst/torsion  and 2 large uterine fibroids found at age 30
    Him - Borderline low sperm count (correcting through Fertility Blend supplement)

    Married 8/20/2011
    TTC #1 since Jan 2013
    First appointment with RE 10/2013.  
    April 2014 - Clomid 100mg CD3-7.  HCG shot CD10 IUI #1 done on 4/12/14 (CD12) ....BFN

    July 2014 - Repeat ultrasound done to measure size of fibroid - 8x9cm (the size of a grapefruit!) Surgery referral made.
    August 2014 - MRI done which revealed 2 fibroids: a 13x15cm fibroid as well as an 8x7cm one.  Super freak out mode over surgery plan.  OB-GYN/surgeon said surgery would most likely have to be a laparotomy (open abdominal surgery)
    August 2014 - After a 2nd opinion, plan to take Lupron x 2 months to shrink fibroids then laparoscopic/robotic myomectomy.  Surgery date is set for Nov 21st!

    @BananaPancakes02 yay for mucus! LOL FX for this cycle!

    @YayaFamily sorry about your BFN :( I hope your break helps you figure out your next steps.

    As for me I caved this morning (11dpIUI) and POAS - BFN. I know I'm not out yet but... I'm pretty sure I'm out. Official test day is Thursday so we'll see...

    DH has been asking me if I feel pregnant since like 2 days after our IUI. I explained about implantation so then he thought I could test at 7-10 dpo. *sigh* I'm like, where have you been for the past 2 years?!

    QOTW: Anywhere with a beach! I would love to be in Florida right now instead of getting ready for work...

    Today is 9dpiui for me! Hang in there my fellow 2WW.

    Question, how long did it take for you to test out your triggers? I'm still getting faint positives on my Wondfo's 11 days later...it's torture!
