May Flowers Check In

lindsebert · August 2013

Good morning mommas!This is a check-in for anyone who had a loss or an EDD in May (of any year). I am so sorry for each one of your losses. I hope that this can be a place to give support and help each other through this difficult time. Everyone is welcome! Members, give us an update on how you are doing. New members, introduce yourself so that we can get to know you. Ramy was kind enough to make us a badge, it is in my signature if you would like it for yours.

Girls, I am so sorry for being so MIA lately. I swear I'm going to try to be a better bumper again. I've just been SOOO super busy with school starting. I didn't realize how crazy it would be starting in a brand new school. Also, DH and I should be going sometime this weekend for IUI#2, so and thoughts, well wishes, or good juju would be appreciated!

@kryan108- How are you? Anything new going on?

@Lindsayhilleary- I'm sure you probably posted on the board, but I've been a terrible bumpie and didn't see it; how did the appt go? How are things with you??

@Zapgurl44- Have things slowed down at work for you? Hope you are doing well!

@HoldingOutHope - How are things going with you? I hope your f/u appt went well. Thinking of you!

Question OTW - If you could be a man for a day, what is the first thing you would do?

Quote OTW - You can't start the next chapter if you keep re-reading the last one.

So many (((hugs))) to all of you beautiful ladies this week

Fingers crossed for you this weekend!! I really appreciate you running the checkin and staying strong as its that time of year last year when we all were KU... I am actually doing really well! I feel much more at peace since the RE appt with my DH so we could get a good snapshot and understanding where I'm at so we can make an educated decision. He said i have lean pcos (which basically is the non insulin resistant type) and should be relatively easy if we decide we want to take it to the next step and do clomid with the trigger shot. Also it looks like I O'd the other day - fingers crossed its not another false alarm... Hugs to all!

Good luck this weekend! Nothing really new to report. Work has mellowed out some. I'm just waiting for AF to show her face. QOTW-I would walk around with my shirt off!!!

@lindebert (hugs) and good luck! @horselover11 I hope your plan works for you. I am doing well. I am a little frustrated with my chart I usually O between cd16-18 but am on 21 now with no temp rise. I am hoping my bbt thermometer just needs new batteries and that I actually did o when I normally do. Hugs to anyone who needs them. (I am on my iPad so paragraphs did not format)

So glad you are feeling better after the appt. Hopefully you'll be able to come to a decision that works for you. ((Hugs))

@lindsebert ~ Sending you lots and lots of good vibes for your IUI this weekend! We'll be thinking of you!!

Not much to report here. I had my last m/c follow up appt on Tuesday - it was just an u/s to make sure all looked good with my ute/lining. Radiologist said everything looks great, so now I just go back to waiting on the bench.

QOTW: This question made me LOL! Probably the first thing I would do is pee standing up! Or check out my family jewels. I guess I could do both at the same time. ;-)

Glad to hear things look good. Hope this bench time FLIES by for you! Also, peeing standing up is the first thing I thought of as well! lol

FX that it is just your BBT and not your cycle going crazy on you. And I'll definitely take those ((hugs)) and send some back to you!

Hi ladies. Sorry I've been so out of the loop. I'm visiting my parents and don't have my computer and I'm awful at mobile bumping.
Linds, thank you for the check in, and I hope your IUI#2 goes well and gets you KTFU!
@horselover11 Glad to hear your RE appointment went well and that you've got a plan going forward.
@zapgurl44 I hope AF shows her face soon!
@holdingouthope Glad to hear your lining is looking good. November isn't too far away, hope it passes quickly for you!
@kryan108 Are you using OPKs too? Since you have so many temps that are the same that makes me think there's an issue with your BBT too. FX you really did O!

As for me, my consult with the RE went pretty well. He basically just went over my history and explained what they can test for with recurrent miscarriages and then explained IUI and IVF. They took a ton of blood and a urine sample and told me to call on CD1. Unfortunately I'm out of town this week and CD1 came on Tuesday after my first (known) anovulatory cycle. When I called the nurse to schedule my hysteroscopy she said that since they can't see me until CD8 that I'll have to just come in for a regular ultrasound and they'll be putting me on birth control and then setting up the hysteroscopy appointment. She also told me that apparently I'll be doing a medicated IUI. News to me. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.

If i were a man the first thing I would do would be to try out my new appendage

Have a good week ladies!

When we found out we would be doing a medicated IUI after we first went to the RE it kind of came as a shock to us as well. It was like the doc decided it would be best, and then just told us what to do and when to be where, lol. It was more professional than that, but ya know. I'll be thinking about you, and if you need anything or have any questions about it, just let me know!

Good luck with your testing @lindsayhilleary ! I have not used opk's before. It seems like I just need to get a new bbt or change the batteries for next cycle.
