Re: *~*~Catheter Club/IUI Check-In*~*~
UPDATE: ?cd 2. ?We are going to try naturally this last little break before IVF. ?I'm not holding my breath or anything though.
?QOTD: ?Me = Good old mac and cheese, Him=Mexican. ?He prefers to eat out (or get carry-out). ??I like home cooked.
?
Update: I go for IUI #2 tomorrow morning. I had my ultrasound yesterday, and I have two follicles on the left..they are both around 22.
Me= Turkey DH= stuffed shells. We prefer home cooked, but we do eat out once a week (on Saturdays).
No update on me. Still waiting.
QOTD: I think our favorite food is probably boiled crawfish. We definitely prefer to go out to dinner, but we're trying to cook at home a lot more.
BFP with no treatment!
1. Just has U/S this morning. I am waiting to hear back if they want me to trigger tonight or tomorrow night. IUIs will be this week sometime.
2. My favorite food is sushi or mac & cheese depending on my mood. I love cooking but most nights I just don't have time, so we order take out or go out probably way too much.
1. Update on you. CD 16 - hoping for the break cycle BFP - doubtful but you never know
2. QOTD courtesy of jennyvag: What is your favoritefood/husbands? I would say anything italian for me and anything Irish for DH - he loves sheppard's pie And do you preferto stay home and cook or go out to a restaurant? Go out - 100% - I hate cooking and I am not very good at it - at all.
1. Ultrasound this AM looked great, IUI #2 this afternoon and tomorrow morning.
2. My favorite food is sushi, husbands is probably Mexican. I love to cook but am a sucker for my favorite sushi place.
1. Update on you:
2ww PLUS...On 16dpiui #1. Still in the ? zone of CD33 (I normally start b/w CD31-35). Scared and don't want to test, pretty damn sure I'm having period cramps today!...pretty sure I'll see a BFN if I did test. Trying to still be hopeful, but not working so well. Say a prayer that I'll see a BFP this time...
2. QOTD courtesy of jennyvag: What is your favoritefood/husbands? And do you preferto stay home and cook or go out to a restaurant?
I'm not sure I have a favorite, it depends on my mood...DQ blizzards, sour patch kids, french fries (any thing bad for you apparently!). DH likes just about every thing but brocolli. We actually prefer to get carry out and eat it at home in bed!
1. Update on you
I'm in the 2ww again! we did b2b IUIs last week (b2b was a surprise to me considering our MFI) and now we're just waiting. i go for P4 check on Thursday and hopefully it's up since i've been on Crinone since Friday night.
2. QOTD courtesy of jennyvag: What is your favoritefood/husbands? And do you preferto stay home and cook or go out to a restaurant?
me: pizza; dh: anything with italian sausage
i don't really have a perference. dh and i enjoy cooking together but i'm always in the mood for a break from cooking since we cook at home (i do the majority of the cooking - he helps on occasion) 6-7 nights a week.
1. Update on you: CD9 going for b/w and u/s tomorrow morning to find out when I trigger and when we will do IUI. I am expecting a Thursday trigger with a Friday morning IUI.
2. QOTD courtesy of jennyvag: What is your favorite food/husbands? My husband's favorite food is a cheeseburger, hands down. For me, I don't know. I am a pretty simple eater, nothing fancy. And do you prefer to stay home and cook or go out to a restaurant? I love to go out to eat and try new places, but I am learning to cook better and better everyday and I love doing it, plus it saves money. He likes to cook when I don't, so that helps!
Hi ladies! Well, after 3 failed IUI's and not producing large enough follicles for IUI #4, we're moving to IVF. You can remove my name from the list. Best of luck to all of you and I hope you all get BFP's soon!
I'll still answer the QOTD though.
DH and I both love Thai food. There is an amazing Thai restaurant close ot our house. DH also loves Mexican and I love Italian. Really, we love most food! But I would say our favorite thing to do is entertain at home. We both love to cook. We have friends over for dinner regularly!
Update: Got my blood taken today, so now just waiting for my next cycle to start so we can begin with injectibles & IUI... 31 days left I think...
QOTD: I love mac & cheese, ramen, and spinach dip. My 3 fav. things
Dh's fav. food is lasagna. I like staying home & cooking cause I'm starting to learn a lot more, but I still love going to restaurants.

update; I"m a 8 dp/iui and anxiously waiting to start POAS! My trigger is negative, so Thursday I will start- 11dp/iui. I'm feeling good about it- my boobs hurt and i've been crampy- just like when i was pg with DS... praying i'm not getting my hopes up for nothing!
qotd: We love to eat out! We'd go out to eat every night if we could afford it... we've cut back a lot in the past year to save money. Both of us love Mexican.
Update: CD2 going for baseline sono and b/w tomorrow! Yay!
QOTD: me: oh, that's hard . . . guacamole maybe? or maybe just avocados. Anything with avocados. DH: pork roast with gravy and rice. We're both home cooked type of people but we enjoy dinner out too.
on a forced break due to a cyst on my left ovary
I love mexican and I would rather go to a nice restaurant and eat.
GL to all the ladies in the 2WW
Yay my appointment is on Thursday!! It's been a long wait, I am very excited to get the ball rolling.
AOTD: I love Mexican food, and pizza. Yum. DH's favorite food is steak.
I like both actually, I like going out for a good meal every once and a while, but I also enjoy cooking at home. Its just the cleaning up part that I hate!
1. Update on you Still in the 2WW, reading the twilight novels and surprising its keeping my mind off the wait- the problem is I am now addicted to the books and reading them much too fast to make it through the 2WW
2. QOTD courtesy of jennyvag: What is your favoritefood/husbands? And do you preferto stay home and cook or go out to a restaurant?
My favorite food is seafood, DH favorite food is probably steak, he is a meat and potato type of person. I prefer to eat out so I don't have to clean.
My Blog
TTC #1 Since June 2007
April 2008 Diagnosed with Unexplained Infertility
5 failed IUI cycles
2009-2011 IF Treatment Break - saving for IVF and TTC on our Own... Praying for a miracle
IVF (Long Lupron) Bravelle & Menopur, ER on 11/4 (Retrieved 17 eggs - 16 mature & 16 fertilized!)3dt on 11/7 (Transfered Two "perfect" 8 Cell 0% Frag Embryos) = BFFN
Nov 2011 - July 2012 Taking time off to heal before FET
(We have three beautiful frosties waiting for us)
FET August/September 2012 = BFP!!!
ET (8/31) 2 Expanded Blastocysts & 1 Collapsed Blastocyst
Beta#1 (9/14) 14dp5dt = 1309 Beta#2 (9/19) 19dp5dt = 7557!! 1st U/S (9/28) 1 Beautiful Heartbeat! 8 Weeks 2 Days 2nd U/S (10/9) Heartrate=184!!! EDD: 5/19/13
I am 9dpiui. I am trying not to think about this wait at all. We are going to do one more IUI if this doesn't work.
My favorite food is comfort food- meatloaf, shepard's pie, turkey and stuffing. I'd much rather eat out than cook b/c I cook every night. DH is a HUGE mexican fan. He could eat tacos every night.
update- 10dpiui #1.
QOTD- sushi for both me and DH. we live in NYC and almost never cook/
IUI #1 = BFN
:-(
We are taking a break until January, just trying on our own, since we are 100% out of pocket.
The silver lining, I suppose, is that I called my nurse coordinator this afternoon to tell her that today was CD 1 and I asked her "exactly" how my numbers were this past cycle and she said that they were all great, no specifics, but there are no problems.
Update: I'm on CD3; starting clomid. IUI should be approx 10/24 or 25.
QOTD: We both love mexican food. We go out to our favorite mexican restaurant about once every 2 weeks. It's delicious!!
