TTC after 35

The longest two weeks of my life start now...

Well, I did it. This morning was my first IUI. It seems like it took forever to get here with all the testing and cysts etc, but I did it.

Not sure how I feel yet. I *think* the timing was pretty good, but who knows. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Anyone else in the 2WW? December 4th can't get here fast enough. At least I have Thanksgiving to keep my mind occupied next week. Year right!

  • Good luck Melle!  It is definitely the longest 2WW when you jump up to a new method.  I hope this is The One!

  • Thanks everyone!

    How do you keep yourself from over-analyzing every little symptom and twinge?

  • LOL.  There probably is no way to over analyze every little twinge!  I know I do it every time!    But when you get your BFP you can say "I felt it right away!"  You really just can't know what's going on in there...I really think there is some amount of magic to it.   Baby dust to you!
