Trouble TTC

I hate when IUIs give you hope..

I'm so use to having no real hope and I hate it when I get a glimmer of hope- I only feel 100x worse later. 

IUI #3 this morning with the best SA MH's ever had.. 29mil/ml, 4ml total, 60% motility .. Post wash 23 million, 95% motility, grade 3!!

But apparently my cervix was really curvy??? He had to straighten it with a special tool (that hurt like a b!tch!!) and now I'm spotting/cramping pretty good. It'll all be worth it if it works though.

FX for lucky #3!

  • I have IUI#1 tomorrow and  I was just talking to my husband last night about where I should be mentally... hopeful or just real about the situation.  Being him, he is an in the moment guy so he said just be in the situation and whatever happens happens.  However, I think he lacks the body issues that women often have where fertility is involved.  I think its just fine to have some hope!

    I hope everything works out!  Good luck!  I'm glad to know there is someone else that is cycling around the same time as me!

    Sept 2009: off BCP, started charting
    Nov - March 2010: no period
    April - November 2010: Prometrium then clomid - BFN
    April 2011 - Finally moved and settled in new city
    June 30, 2011 - Ruptured Ovarian Cyst
    August 2011 - Met with RE - Bloodwork, etc = Dx PCOS, 1700mg of Metformin
    September 2011 - HSG/SIS - shows tissue in ute = Hysteroscopy
    September 2011 - Clomid + trigger + IUI #1 - cycle cancelled at baseline US - cyst on left ovary = 8 weeks of BCP
    December 2011 - IUI#1 Re-do- Clomid + 12/19 Trigger + 12/21 = BFN
    January 2012 - IUI#2- Clomid + Estrace CD13 + trigger + 1/22 = BFN February 2012 - IUI#3 - Clomid + Estrace - Failed to respond to Clomid found on CD 13 monitoring.
    Feb - Being of RE break-up!
    March - Being of crunchy phase aka Accupuncture
    June - Random Positive HPT!!
    Due February 17!
  • Thanks, ladies! It's so weird to have all real numbers in H's sample. I almost feel like we have a normal chance for a change instead of our 5%. But the stupid morph was still < 2%.. Oh well, guess I can't have it all.

    I'm suddenly thankful that my boobs are too big to see what's going on when I lay down. 

    Amen.  I Googled the image after my procedure.  I am eternally grateful I did not see this before my doc used it.  I would have jumped off the table.

    Right? I felt bad enough for my husband who went. Between turning red, looking nervous for me, and those feigned ouch faces I thought for sure he was passing out. Afterwards he told me about the blood on the end of the speculum. Nice.

    Right? I high fived him the second I saw them. Haha! I'm in disbelief that they were ours. I'm not going to be shocked if my baby ends up Asian or something from a mixed up sample ;) Kidding, bad joke. 

    Thanks, girls! Soo excited and it's totally going to make this 2ww hell.
