  IUI #3 should be Th, Fri, or Sat.  Of course, we are really hoping for Friday since the other two days are either holiday or weekend and will cost more!!  I think this will be our last Clomid/IUI cycle.  Depending on DH's SA for the IUI, we'll either be moving on to injects, or our RE will recommend IVF, and I guess we'll be trying to figure out how the heck to pay for that.

  Fave Thanksgiving food...I love the stuffing.  I make a jalapeno-sausage-cornbread dressing that is YUMMY.

  IUI#2 was on 11/19, so just waiting.  I am suppose to take a HPT on Dec. 3, but DH and I will be in Vegas and I am not sure I want to test and possibly ruin my vacation, so I may wait until we get home on Dec. 4 to test (assuming AF doesn't show up while we are in Vegas).

   

  QOTW:  My favorite food for Thanksgiving is to take a roll and put turkey, dressing, and cranberry sauce on it and eat it like a little sandwich.  My favorite single thing is the sweet potatoe casserole.

  Good luck to you too! My RE won't do betas until at least 16dpiui, which would be Sunday, but since they won't do bw on Sunday, I have to wait until Monday. It stinks but I can understand why they wait until 16dpiui, esp bc trigger can last up to 14dpiui.

  We got our bloodwork back and I was negative for all of the clotting disorders.  Next month we'll do another round of clomid and likely TI, since IUI would be Christmas week and I just can't take of then.  We'll pick back up with IUI in January if I don't have a sticky BFP before then!
