@funkykey - As happy and excited as I am, he is just absolutely over the moon. He truly never thought he would see this day. Knowing that it's even *possible* is just a mind-blow for him.
@SoonToBeMommaHowe - I'm sorry for the BFN, darn it! I was really hoping you'd just tested too early. You have been doing this for so long! Gah!
Sending you big hugs, I hope you can move on to the next IUI quickly. Good luck these next few days with AF - I've said it before, but I'll say it again: CD1 SUCKS.
Posting an updated chart - hoping to hear more great news from those of us left to test this week. I've moved off a few folks that went quiet - but if you're missing from the list and should be here, let me know, I'm happy to move your info back up!
Looking like we'll have someone testing Thursday, a few folks likely testing Friday, and a couple of us on Saturday with one more test on Tuesday. @Momifbysea is that your beta? Will you POAS before then?
Thanks, blood test tomorrow, I honestly feel it's going to be a bfn. His post wash count was 2.38 mil, I'm a realist and numbers person. Worth a try since we are already commited but after seeing his #s, I was not thinking it would work. RE said she HAS seen some pregnancies with our numbers but it does put our odds lower. Need to figure out a way to get his #s up. Pre wash was 29mil, but motility was 37%, post wash motility went to 80%.
@Heidiisboss hey!! Keep your head up! Our count was 2 million 83% motility .. I have heard success stories from lots of people! I think people, doctors included, get too hung up on statistics good luck!!
Me (26) + DH (29) One ovary, one tube. Annovulation. Low sperm count. Clomid+trigger+IUI (2million/83% motility) = 02.24.17 = ??
AFM, some dark brown when wiping this morning, then (sorry tmi) some bright red when using bathroom but then this afternoon when just peeing back to dark brown when wiping but nothing on pad. So...waiting for a bit more evidence before calling it cd1 and calling clinic to start bcp for IVF. I'd hate to start bcp and then be wrong! ***TW*** with DD I thought I'd had my period, albeit a light one, when I got the BFP so who knows? ***end tw***
Congratulations @pawcall!!! Let us know what happens with your beta but that's super super encouraging!!!!!!!!!

You know you're 13dpiui when you have dreams about AF coming, wake up and feel *tmi* wet, and its just watery CM from progesterone suppository. haha awesome.

Spoke to my RE. She so super sweet (her child is from IVF). It was a BFN. I figured it would be because the #s were low, so I'm not overly upset, but i know my DH will be super upset. She was very positive about going forward and gave us many excellent strategies for making this happen. IUI is just under 2 k all in each go. We had a HSA account with enough for 2.5 attempts. So seeing that the only thing that appears to need a little help is DH volume, she thinks we can make this happen and wont need to go on to IVF (unless something very unseen happens) which for 15-20k per cycle. I'm ok with giving it a few goes, but i want to wait to see if we can fix the volume issues. In my mind attempting the exact same thing and expecting a completely different outcome without changing véritables really would be the definition of insanity for me. So if we can get the ball rolling quick enough for my dh to get some further testing done or see if we have to do a slightly different collection method etc prior to starting another IUI that would be great but I don't want to wait 6 months before starting another IUI because every attempt to gives you at least a chance. I'm hopeful to either start again this coming cycle, or at the latest (if DH needs to do some stuff first) then April iui. Good luck to our remaining ladies and of course those trying again next month! Congratulations to all the BFP ladies this month. PRAYING for blessings on you, your pregnancy and family units! (for all of us ladies!). I have to run back to work for the next few hours. So my DH is alone and my heart breaks for him.
Im over here torturing myself, decided to start takin my temps three days ago just so I'd know when AF was arriving...well BFN and low temp (97.37) three days ago and since then increasing temps, including today's which was 97.99 (I rarely get above 98). So now of course ive convinced myself maybe 11dpiui was too early, maybe I'll test again tomorrow, blah blah blah. The TWW is such a mind game!

and @pawcall you can keep me as a BFN. I went to the store and got the big guns, FRERs, and still negative. So I called my RE and made a tentative appt for my baseline and added myself to the March IUI list. Hoping for great betas for you!

@SoonToBeMommaHowe I don't know!! Typically with blood results they don't call me until 3:30pm. I am in CST lol Soooo I am trying to keep myself occupied until then. Once it hits 3:30 I am going to be even more antsy.
