  First of all, a HUGE congrats to gym ...I am sooooo happy for you!
  

  Well,  my IUI #3 is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. IF this is a bust, we are taking a break until the new year. It breaks my heart to type it, but we have run out of money for additional procedures. During our break, I will be doing acupuncture that specializes in IF, doing more yoga and continue to take Fertility Blend vitamins (as recommended by my doc). IF we are not successful during our break, I will meet with the doc to discuss about injectables. I think giving us 3 months to save up and get more information on injectables (and going to a class) is a good amount of time and we will both be prepared.

  Oh as a f/u to my bad day post. I gave myself the HcG shot last night and it was not bad at all. I definitely overreacted. 

  SN-it is the first letter of my first name, the first letter of my middle name and my entire maiden name,
  

   

  Happy Sunday ladies!

  Gym, I love seeing your name in the BFPs!!!  Congrats again!

  I am on BCPs for IVF.  Thinking I will start Lupron in about two weeks, but I'll know for sure on Tuesday when we have our consult.

  My screen name is because I love, love magnolias.  I make DH walk around the neighborhood with me and we have to detour to go by any houses that have magnolia trees.  They're just such a welcome sign of spring for me.  The femme is because I am learning to speak French, and I am pretty much obsessed with any and all things French.  Madeleine used to be my top girl name contender, until so many people started using it.

  Big congrats to you Gym! Very happy for you!!

  Update: Went to see a new Uro on Friday. He is putting DH on some meds to see if we can improve his numbers. He's feeling pretty bad due to the Low T so I'm hoping it works. That basically puts us on hold for IVF for about 4 months. Crappy to wait, but at least for a good reason. So we hurry up and wait.

  QOTW: It's my name and birthday. Real creative, huh?

  I don't know if i updated this before...but DH and I are moving onto donors in Feb.  Unless some miracle happens between now and then of course.

   QOTW...EmmerJill21, my dad used to call me Bimbo when I was little (like 3-5) because I loved sexy lingere...weird I know...but my mom didn't like him calling me Bimbo so he changed it Bimmer.  It morphed into Emmer and then I just added my middle name and my age at the time I was getting my yahoo email account.

  Update on me: Completed IUI # 4 and 5, injection cycle 2. Beta is 9/27, but sperm counts were crappy, so I don't have much hope.  Next step is IVF.

  QOTD:  I was a dumb-a$$ and didn't realize that your login name would be your screen name and you wouldn't be able to change it.  It's not my name now, but was at one time.

  Let me just say how wonderful it is to see your name in the BFP's list, Gym!! Woot woot!!

   Update: Right now I'm sitting out all RE intervention. DH and I have decided that the RE I was seeing was not up to our standards. Not to mention I actually never got to meet her since apparently she's too busy to meet with her patients except for major interventions. ::major eye roll::

  Anyway, I'm getting another TSH check Friday with my GP. If that level is still high, I'll get him to refer me to a regular endo. and just go from there. We will try on our own until Feb. which will be the 2 year mark for us. We'll then look at getting a referral to a good RE.

  My SN was from The Knot...I just used my maiden name and added "bride" since that is what I was at the time (real original, I know!)

  Hi Gym, nice to see your name in the BFP list. can you please add me? 1) What is your name (if you want to share)? Maria 2) When did you start TTC? 3/09 3) What is your diagnosis, if you have one? Damaged tubes 4) What treatments have you done? None yet. Currently on BCP waiting to start IVF cycle end of September. QOTW: I like Italian and thought, what would be more perfect than ttc during a 'Beautiful evening" (Bella sera)? Little did I know the path I'll be taking to try to conceive.

  Congrats!

  Update:  Had first RE appt this week. DH stats were a little low, but RE is leaning towards undiagnosed rather than MFI.  Next cycle we are doing Comid + IUI.  I started spotting, so AF will probably show tomorrow.  I am totally excited to get the process started.

  QOTW:  Name & birthday....so original.

  Congrats again Gym... so stinkin' excited for you.  And congrats to all the other recent BFPs!

  QOTW: I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, home of the Fighting Illini.... I think that was probably pretty obvious.  Go Illini!!

  Update:  Still waiting for AF to decide to get here.  I took Provera for the first time for 5 days Tues 9/7 to Sat 9/11, since bloodwork on Tues 9/7 (CD23) showed I had not ovulated yet.  I thought AF was supposed to arrive a few days after ending Provera, but since it didn't arrive by Friday 9/17, I called and the nurse said it could actually take up to 12 days and to call back if I don't have AF by this coming Thurs 9/23.  I would really like AF to get here already if its coming so I can start BCP for a few weeks and then stims for IVF #2.  I wonder if it is possible that I O'd and I'm pregnant.... I certainly would not be that lucky....

  Gym - it is amazingly wonderful to see your name on the BFP list - so excited for you!!!!! 

  Update:  Hoping and praying that I didn't O early and miss being able to have an IUI this cycle (all my OPK's have been negative).  I expect that, as long as I haven't O'd, my IUI should be towards the end of the week. 

  QOTW:  I just picked a log-in name for the knot, didn't realize that it would be my screen name or that I wouldn't change it.  I didn't change it originally because I am lazy and now I sadly have way too much time in to change it.

  Gym--Congrats on your BFP!

  Update:  Nada.  Still sitting this cycle out from the RE.  AF should start late this week/weekend so hopefully we'll get our 2nd injectables cycle going soon.  (Between my and DH's schedules this month and him spraining his back, we literally had sex ONCE on the one random day DH said, "Have you taken an OPK lately?"--props to him for knowing the terminology--and so I did and it was a blaringly obvious positive...So if we get pregnant this cycle, which I know we won't but I'm just saying, it would be a miracle upon miracle.)

  QOTW:  I am a University of Michigan alum.    Go Blue!
  

  Mr. & Mrs. UMich! July 2006! :-)

  Not much new here.  I'm just waiting to O (hopefully the Clomid shortens my cycles a little bit, not that they are normally very long).

  I just wanted to say congratulations again Gym!

  QOTW: My SN is a nickname that was given to me by an old flame .  11 is my lucky number.

  I'm pretty sure DH knows the story behind it too because he was friends with him before we met... every time he sees my SN he sarcastically says, "Hey Sweets...".  Good thing Mr. Sweets has a good sense of humour

  You can add me to the list with No Diagnosis Yet and/or Currently Undergoing Test

  1) What is your name (if you want to share)? Crystal
  2) When did you start TTC? Started Feb. 2009
  3) What is your diagnosis, if you have one? Not sure what our problem is yet. lost my job and insurance last Nov. and have had a hell of a time finding another job in my tiny town in the middle of no where land.
  4) What treatments have you done? My sister is a u/s tech and I had her do a free pelvic u/s and a trans vag. u/s and she didn't see anything wrong, however she is some what new to this field and is a Radiologist so she couldn't deff. say that I was ok. Once we get our insurance back we will start of with a SA for DH.

  Update:  u/s tomorrow morning.  I'm bringing in old blood work results and surgical records from my appendectomy ten years ago.  Based upon the information I read in those reports, I'm trying not to get my hopes up that the Clomid will have done anything.

  QOTW:  I was always a little forgetful growing up and my mom would call me spacey.  When I had to come up with a screen name for our AOL account, this was what we came up with.  It kind of stuck.

  TTC #1 5/97 - PCOS dx 6/10 - Metformin 8/10 - Moved from Endo to RE 9/10 - 50mg Clomid 9/10 - 100mg Clomid 10/18 - BFP - Beta #1 = 91 - Beta #2 = 958 EDD 6/28/11 Tater Tot arrived 6/21/11 on his Great Grandmother's 90th Birthday
