***2IF Weekly Update***

tryingyetagain

I hope everyone's summer is going great so far.  Welcome to the ladies who are new to the 2IF board. I wish none of us had a reason to be here though!

The drought continues, unfortunately.  Hopefully, that will change that this week!

Please remind everyone of your history, as well as your current status.

QOTW:  If you had loads of money, would you rather have a personal massage therapist, a personal chef, or a housekeeper?  (or feel to throw out some other similar type of provider!)

DH and I got married in December 2010, and we've been trying ever since.  Three losses in that time (plus I had one many years ago), and I no longer have a tube on my right side. 

I had my CD11 ultrasound this morning, and it did not go well.  I still have a small cyst on my left side that they suspect is an endometrioma.  But they don't want to do lap to look for further endo (which, if removed, could cure my infertility), because of my age (I turn 42 a week from today).  I had a size 23 follie on my right, plus two small ones on the right.  On the left, where I need follies, I only had an 11 and a 9.  So IUI#3 was cancelled for the second month in a row.  I cried and cried.  I have been really depressed lately, and this did not help.

QOTW:  Housekeeper, for sure!  I like to cook, and my husband is a great masseur.  Housekeeping I could do without though!

Hi everyone! I have a an 18 month old son who is a happy accident after 4 yrs of ttc due to male factor issue.
I'm on CD 11 and I just got a "high" reading on the clearblue digital ovulation kit BUT my clearblue fertility monitor still says "low" ??? So the game plan is to err on the side of caution and BD starting tonight... I don't understand how two similar products made by the same company can give different readings when I used the same pee at the same time for both tests? insight?
if I had millions I would get a maid! I love a clean house but hate to clean so yeah, a maid :

TTC#2 for 2.5 years.  DX: MFI. We're at the point where we will continue to try on our own, but we won't be trying IUI or IVF for a bunch of reasons.  We've got an offer on a new house and once we move, we're eager to start our application for adopting/fostering- so excited for that.  We secretly hope we're those "lucky" couples that adopts and then get s KU.

By housekeeper, you mean someone who is also a personal chef, too???  I'd love a housekeeper b/c I hate cleaning.  I don't mind cooking, but a chef would be pretty cool. I hardly ever get massages.

No real update just playing the waiting game!

QOTW: Can I be selfish and say all three, hehe!

I have a DD who turned 2 last week (resulting from my first IUI) and we have been actively trying for #2 for 14 months. I had an IUI in January that resulted in a m/c, and another IUI last month that was a BFN. Had my CD3 appointment this morning and will be starting Clomid tonight. My RE is increasing my Clomid from 50 to 100mg this cycle, so I'm hoping it does the trick!

Housekeeper, hands down!

DH and I have been ttc #2 since 10/2011. Feels like an eternity. We've been on a break for 2 months - first because DH was gone for 3/4 of my cycle on a business trip and then once we were ready to start iui #1, RE was going  to be on vacation that projected week. So DH and I decided to just enjoy our family time now - no opks, no temping - before we get into our iui cycle.

Sooo... just waiting for AF to show up today or tomorrow, then we're getting started. I'm super nervous, but trying not to think about what we will do if it doesn't work. We are 100% oop.

QOTW: A masseuse... once a week would be great! I could use a massage right now!

We've been ttc #3 for almost 2 years. Still can't believe we have fertility issues after conceiving both DDs the second month of trying...definitely feels like a miracle in hindsight. I'm on cd12 of our last medicated IUI cycle. If this doesn't work we are going to back off from meds and doctor visits for awhile. I just had my ultrasound today and have two follicles at 16.5mm, a 15mm, and a 14mm. I'm triggering on the 4th, IUI on the 6th. My lining was the best it's ever been at 7C. Obviously hoping this ends with a BFP, but if it doesn't I'm relieved to be stepping away for awhile. 

QOTW: Housekeeper for sure! Who has time to clean?!?

Hi everyone! I've been away from the board for a several months as I was benched with a polyp, so tried to take a complete break from everything. We have been TTC2 for nearly 3 years. I have a LPD, and have now had 2 polyps. Primarily unexplained though! DS is 4yrs old and was conceived on a clomid and iui cycle. I had a hysteroscopy in early April and had a full cycle break to heal. Started up again last cycle with injects and iui, BFN. Currently 3dpiui on another injects and iui cycle. Trying to be positive but also not get my hopes up!

ETA: I would love a housekeeper! It would free up so much time :

CMDR513

Married for 7 years. We have a 4.5 y/o DS. We got lucky and conceived him 1st month. We're approaching the year mark on the 21st. So far the d/x is MFI. DH goes for a second round of SA and more B/W this month. App't for the urologist is in Aug. At that point, an endocrinologist is next. 

I would love the housekeeper. I hate cleaning!
