Trouble TTC

-:- 3T Weekly Check-in -:-

Congrats to all the BFPs and ((hugs)) to those that need them!
If you're finally getting your BFP, please PM me so I don't miss it! Also, this helps me avoid posting an ambiguous BFP if you're not ready to officially call it.
Reply to this post if you would like your information updated.  Please post an update at least monthly so I know you are still active - even if your info hasn't changed. You will be removed if you go more than 4 weeks without posting.
If you would like to be added or updated, please answer the questions below:
1.  What is your name (if you want to share)?
2.  When did you start TTC (month/year)?
3.  What is your diagnosis (if you have one)?
4.  What treatments are you doing?
For everyone who is up to date on the above, where are you in your current cycle and how's it going?
QOTW: What is a bad habit you have?

Re: -:- 3T Weekly Check-in -:-

  • I'm up early today.. my parents are coming over for breakfast for my dad's birthday. 

    Today is CD9 of a natural cycle.  Starting OPKs today.  So things are pretty boring right now.

    QOTW:  I bite my nails / pick at my cuticles.  When I paint my nails, it helps a bit.. but I really wish I could stop!

  • Good morning! So happy is Sunday since that means it's my day off! Work has been cray cray loads of sickie pets, don't know what's going on with October. Anyway I have no real updates, big upcoming dates tho' . 10/17 get BW & U/S make sure my lining is good and if everything is up to par we finally take my eggs out of Siberia on 10/19 to do ICSI!!! Very anxious and excited hoping for a 5dt as that's what is organized on the work front. Changing my work schedule around gives me horrible stress. I currently have a stress rash on my hands. I really need to relax.

  • Update: CD1 of cycle 18 for me :( This one was rough. My temp kept rising until 13 dpo so I let myself get my hopes up. I'm only temping to confirm O from now on. We have an appointment with our RE next Friday, the 25th, to talk about treatment options. We're hoping to try IVF in January, but if the doctor thinks we should try IUI before that, we're open to that option too.

    QOTW: I also bite my nails/pick my cuticls. My fingers are hideous. I carry a nail file with me everywhere because if they're uneven I'll bite them (as if that helps). I need to get some good hand cream too to keep my hands from getting dry enough to pick.

  • Happy Sunday ladies! Today is 12DPO over here. We did hcg injections on 3, 5, 7, and 9 DPO and I was really trying to be optimistic about it doing the trick for us (I have turned into a bit of a negative Nellie in the past year and a half), but my temp dropped this morning and I started crying. I know there's still a chance, but I feel like I'm out and it sucks.

    QOTW: I tend to like things done a certain way and sometimes "fix" things that hubby does when I really should just be happy for his help. Trying to get better about this!

    It's CD21, my 19th day of injections, and as of yesterday my follicle growth stalled again. We were about to cancel last week when my E2 and follie both jumped positively. I'm up to 3 vials of Bravelle a day. Unless there is a big change tomorrow, I am going to give up and get mentally ready for IVF.

    My nurse left my clinic last week. She's the best and really helped me through the lowest points in this journey, so I am kind of a huge mess right now.

    My current worst habit is letting the dishes slide. My kitchen is tiny and a nightmare of both pots needing to be washed and clean items that dried yesterday, but I'm too lazy to put away.
    Me (34) & DH (45) - NTNP since June 2011
    RE: 12/1/12 - Me: PCOS; DH: Low T

  • Well, I got a BFN from my natural cycle and developed yet another cyst. So, I am still benched for yet another cycle. And since I am on BP meds, the RE does not want to put me on the pill to clear everything up. GRRR!

    Bad habit: internalizing stress. Not good for me or my ulcer.

    Married 10/06

    Baby Girl "C" arrived on 10/07/14 (39 weeks, 6 days)


     

  • 1.  What is your name (if you want to share)? Mallory
    2.  When did you start TTC (month/year)? November 2011
    3.  What is your diagnosis (if you have one)? Unexplained
    4.  What treatments are you doing? Clomid + IUI
    For everyone who is up to date on the above, where are you in your current cycle and how's it going?
    Just went for monitoring today (CD14) . Had a 25mm follicle so they triggered me today and I go in tomorrow morning for IUI #3
    QOTW: What is a bad habit you have?
    I don't wash my face EVERY night. Some nights I am just too tired and then I pay for it in the morning.
  • @jconno Good luck at your RE appointment. Hope you get some answers.
  • Afternoon Ladies! CD 1 arrived today, so I'm just waiting to hear back from the RE to set up my u/s before starting our first round of meds.

    QOTW - I'm a perfectionist, so I have a hard time delegating tasks to other people, which causes a lot of extra stress.

  • good evening ladies!! Congrats to any BFPs and ((HUHGS!!)) to those who need them!

    I decided to POAS this morning at 13dpIUI#6, which is my last IUI before taking a long break to save up for IVF. I got a BFN by the way. I guess I am either waiting for AF or praying it's was just took early (which I highly doubt). In the mean time I am preparing for a long break, saving up money. I am finishing up an application for an IVF Grant. I doubt I will get it, but I guess I won't know unless I play the game!

    QOTD: I eat out too much and I don't clean up after myself like I should.

    Sigh.... I wish I could say I am having a current cycle. The last period I had was in July and it was progesterone induced... the one before that maybe april? My ob gyn put me on metformin at the beginning of september so if things haven't changed at all by my yearly "well woman" (god how ironic is that good grief) that is next week I guess it is back to progesterone. She wanted me to give the metformin a little while to work but seriously... i'm growing incredibly impatient. Needless to say November will be a year of TTC so I will be pushing the RE issue and scheduling myself an appt.

    My worst habit? I can think of a few.. most important ones right now, lack of self confidence/too much stress. I just started a new nursing job (I made a big change after 4 years) and I'm letting my stress keep me from being happy and enjoying this new opportunity to its fullest.

    **siggy warning**

  • @say1009 I hope it is just too early. I have my fx for you. Good luck to everyone else as well!

    I had my IUI today and my Dr. said I've been responding really well to Follistim. I'm more optimistic this time than the others (this is our 4th IUI but our 1st on injects). I go in Thursday for bloodwork and to see if I need to give myself the booster shot. 

    My bad habit is probably stressing and over questioning every little thing!

    Hello, ladies. I am still chugging a long on my break cycle with bcps. I have lost 17 lbs now over the 5 weeks I have been in this program and DH and I decided I am going to stay with my trainer for a little while and push off injects until January. I am going to talk to my RE this week about whether there is any harm in me going off bcps for the rest of my break and seeing if maybe the weight loss will help us get KU on our own.

    QOTW: I am a super messy person. Not dirty but I messy. Luckily DH is super clean or we would live in a pig sty.

    ETA:  Spacing.  Stupid mobile bumping.

    QOTW: I'm in the messy club. I've got clothes all over the floor currently.

  • I had my monitoring appointment today.  I had 11ish measurable follies (10-16mm) and several more less than 10.  I go back on Wednesday for more monitoring and the RE thinks that my ER should be either Friday or Saturday.  My lining was 8.6 so hopefully that thickens up some too.

    I am a little nervouse because we are about where we were at my first monitoring appointment for IVF #1 (I think I had 9 measurable follies that day) and I only ended up with 6R, 5M, 3F, 0T.

    I am currently on CD136 (month 8/cycle 2), and I am about to start taking double the dose of metformin that my doctor started me on. My stomach is feeling a little weird today so I may wait until tomorrow.

    On another note, I have this mysterious/painful lump in my armpit that I just noticed last night. I made an appointment to check this out just in case.

    Bad Habit: I procrastinate too much.

    --------

    I hope you all have a wonderful week, and that everyone is doing well.
  • CD 2 over here on a natural cycle.  I'm off the chickenpox bench, but still waiting until the new year for an IUI.  Glad that we aren't TTA anymore, but I don't think I am going to temp or use OPKs.  I do have a few wondfo OPKs left, so no promises. 

    QOTW: I'm a procrastinator, too.  Grrr.  I drive myself crazy and end up awake/working at odd hours to get stuff done.  I like to tell myself that I work best under pressure.

  • Well we are still benched, and I am not doing too well on my weight loss.  I hit my first 25 pounds and crashed.  I just finished eating 2 mini halloween candies, and while they were delicious I know they are oh so bad.  This past Friday marks our 2 year date for trying to get pregnant.  Hoping next year will be our year (if I can buckle down and lose this next 25 pounds).
    I think reading the beginning of this post will sum up my bad habits, snacking at work.... i'm the worst!

    Hi All! After being benched for over a month due to cysts, we're starting our 2nd injectable cycle tomorrow. I'll be doing 3 days of Menopur then going in Friday for bloods and u/s. Doing 75 ml this time as opposed to 150 which is what I was on last cycle when I over-responded. Hoping low and slow does the trick and we cam finally get a real crack at this pregnancy thing! QOTW: I'm not the tidiest person I know, and I procrastinate a lot

    Dec '13: First FET 12/20 BFP!!
    12/31 Beta #1: 404 Beta #2: 1,027    
    Baby due 9/9/14

  • Hey Ladies! Only one day late on check-in this week ;) I am at CD9 of a clomid + ?? cycle. It is looking more like we are postponing IUI#3 because of work timing (I am starting a new job and I have a wedding to shoot on Saturday) and because my husband really likes the idea of a medicated TI cycle as a break of sorts...I think there is a little performance anxiety happening! To be honest, I like the idea of just clomid + TI too because I want to get into this new schedule witht he new job before starting the madness of multiple RE appointments up again.

    QOTW: I have always been a big procrastinator expecially when it comes to cleaning. The mess will drive me nuts and I know I create more work for myself because I don't keep up with it, but I really have to work on motivating myself to even start cleaning.

    I would like to join in on this check in! :)


    1. What is your name (if you want to share)?

    Crystal.


    2. When did you start TTC
    (month/year)?

    My first cycle TTC was May/June 2012.


    3. What is your diagnosis (if you have one)?

    All my test came back normal. (CD3 BW, US, and HSG). Hubbies first SA was low motility. ( done through OB) 2nd SA done through the RE office was much better. Showed slightly low sperm count, but much much better motility. The first SA was a flop, so we will go by the RE's SA.


    4. What treatments are you doing?

    Going Thursday to the RE to discuss that. He mentioned briefly IUI and clomid at the first consult, but that was before any testing.

    QOTW- I wait to the last minute to do things with a deadline. I don't mean to it just happens about 90% of the time.

  • Cycle 12 -We are still trying on our own until our first RE appointment 11/6.

    I have a bad habit of making myself pee even when I don't really have to. I guess I always feel like I have to go or am going to have to soon if I don't.

    *****Everyone is welcome******

  • Hey ladies, haven't been on here in a while bc I been hanging out on the IF page but wanted to check in and see what you all were up to.  In the 2ww from my 2nd IVF.  This IVF is going way better than last IVF- see siggy.  If you are worried about taking the IVF journey I am the biggest baby when it comes to needles and Drs and I have made it through 2 IVFs so you can do it!

    Hope you all get BFPs soon!  
    ***SIGGY WARNING***

    DX: Unexplained
    6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).  
    IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN,   IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1  BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical 
    Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg.  Endo biopsy=negative.  WTF is wrong with us???
