Hi ladies! I can be moved - I got my BFP last week during cycle #16, IUI #3. I'm still very cautious since my betas, although doubling, have been low. I go for more b/w tomorrow and my first u/s next Friday. Thanks Mrs. Slick!

Put me in the 2ww please- if that's ok. My O hasn't been confirmed by temps, but at my CD 13 u/s I had two mature follies and my doctor suspected O this weekend and as of Monday night, all my O pain and bloating are gone
buckeyebaby814: TTC # 1, Cycle # 14, months trying 13, Current Dx or treatment: No official Dx but my HSG did show a partially blocked, right tube. Began 1st round of clomid @ 50mg, CD 3-7 and progesterone for 2ww beginning @3dpo.... Plan for next cycle? If no BFP, call on CD 1 to schedule my CD 3 monitoring appointment for a 2nd round of clomid. chart
**I want to apologize for being SO absent from the check-ins** I have been so overwhelmed/ busy since school started back up and now things are finally calming down.
QOTW: I fear keeping them as 'kids.' I know times change all the time, but it's hard not to compare children today as to 'back when I was a kid...' I remember not wanting to come inside until the sun went down and we never watched TV in the summer. Priorities and interest have moved towards technology, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I don't want my kids to only want to watch tv, get fb accounts, have cell phones and play video games.
