Good morning!!

I'm currently in the 2ww after have IUIs last Thurs and Fri. ?Not feeling very confident and preparing for our IVF consult next Thurs

?DH is a HUGE baseball fan. ?Unfortunately, he is an avid Mets fan and I was raised as a Yankee fan. ?The last thing my dad said as we were walking down the aisle at my wedding was that I had to promise to raise all of my children as Yankee fans. LOL!?

lisagab26

Just ended 2WW, moving on to IUI cycle #2...

mrsharris15

I just wanted to pop in and say good luck to everyone cycling! I can't wait to rejoin this check in

dawnmarie1279

I am in 2ww but this is IUI #2, you have #3 listed

ccam

I'm on cd8 of IUI cycle #3.  I just went for a monitoring appointment this morning and the nurse thinks we'll probably be going in for the IUI sometime early next week.  Hopefully this is lucky #3

lynn0926

Beta day is Saturday. I am not feeling hopeful given I only had one egg again. I am not into sports much, but DH is a Boston fan all around. I grew up in Chicago and my family still lives out there, so there is a bit if friendly family rivalry especially when the two pay each other.

kellyrn9956

CD8 today, day 4 of Clomid. Looking forward to my monitoring appt on Friday morning!!! I can just feel my ovaries being beat into submission!

Ms H13

Went in for bloodwork to confirm BFN this morning, hoping that next cycle we actually get to do an IUI. 

QOTW:  DH and I don't watch any football or hockey, but love gymnastics and soccer.  I have a few fave gymnasts and we both root for El Tri (Mexico) for soccer.

eponine7682

DH and I will be trying on our own (TI) this month. I was just afraid his numbers would be even lower given his surgery and didn't want to waste money on an IUI. We will be going in for IUI #3 in October!

QOTW: I am not a huge sports nut, but DH is. His favorites are hockey (Penguins) Football (Giants, and for college - Notre Dame) and NASCAR (Tony Stewart). He also like Duke for basketball. I do, however, like football parties! It's an excuse to chill and eat/drink things that are bad for ya!

ECUGirl2004

I got a BFP on Thursday and so far have had 2 betas (the 3rd was this AM, but I don't have results yet). IUI #4 worked! I didn't want to post on the TTTC board because I haven't participated much recently and didn't want to be perceived as a drive-by, but I thought I'd share it here.

MsMommyDoc

SN = 8

Where? CD7  (last day of clomid round)

IUI# = 2

Test/Beta = TBD

QOTW: Dallas Mavs baby!!

Happy Wednesday!!

 

 

Eve_Angelique

Still breaking hoping for a miracle while on this break from injections and appointments and such. 

QOTW: DH and I both love football we are pretty avid Viking fans. We also love college hockey, we are huge fans of our college hockey team the Bemidji State Beavers!! 

bhead81

I am in my 2WW this week with my beta on Saturday.  I took a HPT today and it was a BFN and my gut tells me this was not our cycle.  I am ready for Saturday so I can find out for sure and move onto the next cycle.

QOTW: I am a huge football fan, both college and pro.  I love the Dallas Cowboys and for college I am a University of Arizona fan. 

mdiblasi10

Good morning ladies! I can be moved to Currently in an IUI Cycle. Today is CD3 and we are gearing up for IUI #3. Same protocol as #2.

QOTW: DH and I are not die hard sports fans. We watch drag racing & F1 on TV, and I like to watch tennis. We do love to watch baseball live, so we usually go to a few games a year and cheer on the LA Angels of Anaheim.

katieworek

Good morning!

I am currently in the 2ww for IUI #3 with my beta on 9/12/11.  This is our last attempt before moving to IVF so the stakes are high.

QOTW: Both myself and DH love the Chicago Bears.  Football is one of the few things that I really like about fall!

Blueyed228

I had IUI #2 on Monday.  I go in for my pg test on 9/12.

mrsharris15

Ask and you shall receive, AF showed up about an hour after I posted here! I can moved up to "currently in iui" Its #4 for us, and were using Follistim. I am so excited I could scream! This 3 month break was way to long...

Please send some of that luck my way! I am STILL waiting for AF after my ectopic. If she doesn't show by the 9th, I will call for Provera. Being anovulatory sucks because it makes those breaks even longer.

QOTW: As you can tell, I am a HUGE sports fan! My husband even jokes that that's the number 1 reason he married me, bc I know my sports, I love my sports and I love going to and watching sports! We are both Buffalo Bills fans! We love football Sundays. And I am a HUGE Buffalo Sabres fan (even my dogs name is Sabre!) and I also work for them! Its a great experience. DH is the biggest UNC Tarheels fan I have ever met, and I think basketball is one of the only sports I just can't seem to get into.

hunterjumper102

No real update here I am still waiting on AF to get here, she is way later than normal so I think if she isn't here by the end of the week I am going to call the RE and ask about starting Provera to get this cycle going.  Then we can start IUI#3.

 

QOTW:  I am a die hard Florida State Seminoles fan.  Go Noles!!  DH is a mild Illinois fan and likes to pretend he is a NC State fan just to irritate me since they are in the same conference.  We don't really pay attention to pro-football much. 

kimikins79

hi!  Can I be added?  I am on my first IUI, in my first 2WW!  I used clomid plus ovidrel trigger this cycle.

As for the QOTW - I love anything Philly sports related and so does DH.  No rivalry here - we watch all games together and I think it is something that has really bonded us - he loves that I am the wife that wants to watch football all day on Sunday just like him!  His friend's wives don't really care, so he thinks it is neat that I love it too!

genmalone

I'm CD 7 today.  This will be my 5th attempt at IUI #1.  Here's hoping it goes well this cycle.  Praying for at least one good follie.

Good luck everyone!

AKB090609

Currently in the 2ww for IUI #2, test day would be 9/10, but I will be on my way home from Ireland so I will just be waiting it out.

QOTW: With football season and hockey season right around the corner (and because I am a HUGE sports nut!), what are your favorite sports teams? What are DH?s? If DH?s are different, do you have a friendly rivalry going on? ;-)

DH an I love football! We are Wisconsin to Minnesota transplants so we love rooting for the Vikings and the Packers its great because we almost always have a winning team to watch! It does get rough when we go home for thanksgiving dressed in vikings gear to rile up our Bears and Packers loving families

TheHensonWedding

Hello! I would love to be added! 

 S/N: TheHensonWedding

Where I'm at: I start clomid tomorrow, trigger next Wednesday, and have my first IUI scheduled for next Friday.  

I'm on IUI #1. Test/Beta Day will be probably be the 26th.  

QOTW: 

I'm not a huge football fan, but my husband graduated from A&M so we watch every Aggie game. My family has always been UT fans, so we are a house divided! lol.

I'm on IUI #2, in the TWW, but I have a strong feeling we'll be moving on after this cycle. To what...I don't know yet.

kelnyc

IUI #4 was a BFMFN (big fat mother effing negative), so we are now doing femara + TI until starting BCP in November for IVF in December.

D&J1202

IUI #1 BFN! I am on cd7 and day 3 of chlomid so far no hot flashes just some headaches. My first u/s this cycle is cd14. Hoping for more than one follie and a thick lining.

Trish11278

Update: 9dpiui #5.  Getting weird cramps that I really don't remember in my others but trying not to get my hopes up.  I have been really stressed with the start of school so hopefully that doesn't mess anything up.

QOTW:  My DH and I are big football fans.  We are true EAGLES fans!

nkw003

Ok, so I'm a day late for the Check In, but I'd like to join in.  Please excuse the tardiness.

My S/N : nkw003

Where am I at in my cycle: IUI done today (9/1), officially starting my 2ww.

What IUI am I on: #1

Test/Beta day: 9/15

QOTW: We're a college football household.  DH LOVES the Iowa Hawkeyes and I don't really care one way or another.  I tend to cheer for the Iowa State Cyclones, both because I was raised a Cycylone fan and because it makes DH crazy.  We were married two years ago on the day of the Iowa/Iowa State rivalry game, and have had a bet every year since. 

zookbride

I'm sorry I'm so late. I swear I looked for this post yesterday...I guess I missed it

Anyway, I take an OPK tomorrow and if there is any line, I call the surge line and show up Saturday for an u/s. I have a good feeling there will be a line b/c I've always had one on CD12...however, not sure about how close I am to ovulating as I haven't had any fertile CM. I am having some twinges and pain where my ovaries are though. 

If all goes well, we'll have our IUI Sunday or Monday but hopefully before Thurs when I go OOT. Eeek, I know its a small time frame, but my NP was pretty confident I'd O before CD 18. 

 

QOTW: We are HUGE college football fans and are 100% Roll Tide fans (University of Alabama) Love me some football! And I did get into hockey some last year, so I think I'll try to catch a few games (our team is the Frozen Tide...and yes, even in Alabama where it hardly ever snows, we have a hockey team!)
