Secondary IF

-------2If weekly update--------

Please provide a brief history and your current cycle status.

ME: DS just turned 2 and took 4 yrs to conceive.

I don't know where I'm at in my cycle. My temps look annovalatory and my CD count is all messed up because FF thinks I'm on a brand new cycle because I entered "light bleeding" into the data a few days ago for all the freaking spotting that is STILL going on with no real AF in sight - so who knows?

QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they?

yes- I sleep like the dead but apparently according to my DH I sit straight up often while I'm asleep or put my legs in the air, I also laugh and -yes- *blushes* snore. I'm a huge cover hog and must fall asleep with the tv on but, the volume low.

  • Please provide a brief history and your current cycle status.

    2 MC, 1 DD Natural, 3 additional MC's.

    Roughly 5 dpo, not holding my breath.

    QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they? 

    The last MC gave me extreme insomnia, So I take Melatonin to sleep. I cannot sleep unless all THREE of my fans are on, lol. Im addicted to the noise. MH says when im really tired and I gently snore, good to know!

    Easily conceived both DDs. Hormones never went back to normal after DD2, weak ovulation, 1mc. Currently 7dpiui. I poas yesterday and today to check the trigger. Now I'm going to wait a few days. If it's darker, I'll jump for joy.

    QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they? 

    Nothing unusual, but I have turned into a very light sleeper and wake up to the smallest of sounds.

    Two DDs 10/08 and 08/10, no primary IF
    TTC #3 since 10/2011 - dx unexplained/weak ovulation
     3 BFN clomid + TI cycles, 5 BFN clomid/gonal f IUIs, 1 mmc IUI

  • Conceived twice, first and second try with angel baby and DS, respectively.  Since DS my body has been stubborn and my LP is too short.

    Currently on cycle 17, around 6dpo.  It was an unmedicated cycle, and I'll just see how my temps look over the next few days to decide on whether to test.

    QOTW - I'm a pretty calm sleeper.  I don't steal covers, I don't toss and turn, but I do sometimes snore.  I'm also a fairly light sleeper.  DH sleeps like a rock, so someone has to keep their ears open during the night.

    November 2010 - 10.5 week loss  o:) 
    October 2011 - DS (7)  <3 
    July 2014 - Stillborn DD (24 weeks)  o:) 
    August 2015 - DD (3)  <3 
    April 2018 - 5 week loss o:) 

  • DS was a surprise, previous relationship.  Currently on Lupron waiting on AF, then next week will start estrogen for FET prep.  :-SS

    QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they?
    I used to have insomnia really bad and slept 3-4 hours a night, that has since changed, and the only habit I have is I have to have my head on one pillow and hug another one. I am a stomach/side sleeper.  I grind my teeth and have to wear a night guard.

  • 6 years to conceive dd through IVF bc of severe mfi. She is 27 months, been trying for year now and just did failed FET. Cycle day 30, AF two days late, bfn this morning, so eff me. Waiting to finish financing fresh IVF to start cycle in March hopefully.

    I can sleep anywhere if needed. I fall asleep in one position, I don't budge and wake up same way. I don't snore or talk- I usually scare my husband that I died in sleep and he has poked me to be sure.

  • DS is 4, got pregnant with him in 2 cycles. Probably MFI causing us to have so much trouble.

    CD1 again. Hoo-ray. Genetics appointment tomorrow and as soon as I get the all-clear from them I'm calling the RE to talk about IUI. This cycle put me over the edge.

    I sleep like a rock. DH says I talk, and I have used those sleep apps to record myself- he's right. I mostly sing, I think. I used to sleep-walk but haven't done that (to my knowledge) in years.
  • Conceived DD after 1.5 years of TTC through IVF. 

    CD 10 of a medicated IUI cycle. Hoping this is the one!!

    First of all I love sleep. I sleep sometimes well, sometimes not. I need my fan to sleep. On high, and it doesn't work if you try and trick me by putting it on medium. I like it dark, I don't want to see the sunlight blazing thru in the morning. Last but not least, I need at least 3 pillows. One for between my legs (2 if they are thin), one to hug (kinda as I sleep on my side so I am really laying on it), and then one under my head. 

    TTC for 1.5 years with a crappy RE. 12 cycles with clomid (11 too many)

    My history is long but I have a 6 yr old DD!

    I'm on my period. I'm not even counting days. Waiting for DH to get an appoint with a urologist and start adoption classes. I have DMS, during menstrual syndrome or whatever expletives you want to use.

    QOTW: I am a DX'd insomniac and stayed up for 7 days straight once. It was hell!

  • Dx Prolactinoma in 1997 (age 16) with levels of 1538.  Found out I was 20 weeks pregnant in May 2011 (oops) and gave birth to my monster Oct 2011.  Dx with PCOS in December 13 and did a round of Provera.  Finally got my period yesterday for the first time in three years!  So I guess I am officially on CD2?  Still trying to figure that all out.

    Sleep?  What is this foreign word you speak of?  I have a really screwy work schedule, so I really only run on about 4-5 hours of sleep a day.  My hubs, on the other hand, is a CHAMPION sleeper.  He grew up across the street from a fire house and nothing wakes this man up;  he needs 13 alarms to wake up for work every day. Yeah,  thirteen.  It's really awesome when I am on the night shift and his alarms start blaring at 5 am.
  • History:
    DS (4.5) was conceived the first month we stopped preventing.  Currently on cycle #19ish TTC #2.  RE has never given me an official diagnosis but I consider us to be unexplained/mild MFI (morph only).  Today is CD 15 of what is likely our last unmedicated cycle.  We have an appt with the RE at the end of the month to develop a treatment plan...

    QOTW:
    Not really!  I am a stomach sleeper and a very deep sleeper.  DS still comes into my room/bed between 3-5am every night when he wakes up and has to pee.  At that point, I usually toss him into bed with me and DH goes into the guest room until his alarm goes off...
  • HI! 

    History: Referred to the RE and diagnosed PCOS in April 2011 after getting off BC and TTC (never got a period).  DH diagnosed low motility. Did IUI in June, got BFP, had DD in March 2012.  Started taking Metformin in December and are trying to conceive now on our own.  Will probably schedule another IUI in the spring/summer if metformin + TI doesn't work. 

    Current: 2 DPO.  Will probably test next weekend.  
     
    Sleep Habits: I also have to sleep with a fan on! In the winter, I can't stand it blowing on me so I point it in the corner.  I just have to have the sound! Otherwise, I am a pretty uneventful sleeper.  I have always been a light sleeper but since having DD, I sleep a even lighter.

  • Jeffrey was conceived without any problems. He is 17 months and we have been TTC again since nov 2012.

    AF is due on Monday. Dec was a break month but I am going to do my second round of clomid this month.

    I love sleep! I was so sad when Jeffrey dropped his second nap, lol! I have been having trouble sleeping this week but I think it is work related stress.

  • History: Me: DOR low AMH, DH Azoospermia due to CBAVD from CF.   IVF/ICSI/PESA #1 in 2010 twins.  FET #1 nonviable pregnancy and D & C surgery, IVF/ICSI/PESA #2 no embryos to transfer, IVF/ICSI/PESA #3 chemical.  Hoping to cycle IVF/ICSI/PESA #4 in summer 2014 somewhere. DH and I cannot agree, he does not want another PESA or to be touched at all, blah. 

    I have decided to call clinic 1 on Monday and have them send me an order for CD 3 blood work for my AF this month.  Maybe if DH sees a huge change in numbers we can cycle sooner rather than later.  Here is to hoping!

    Wishing everyone well this week!

    QOTW:  I have chronic pain from an old injury so I sleep poorly, I more rest, lol.  On the bright side, staying up with the babies was not tough for me!

  • Please provide a brief history and your current cycle status.

    DS conceived naturally, born August 2011. Me: 37, DH: 36. All testing (AMH, FSH, HSG, SA etc. normal)

    I had my first ever IUI today. Feeling a little crampy. Will be testing on January 24th.

    QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they? 

    I don't. I'm pretty much the most vanilla sleeper in the world, however DH does. Every so often, He will raise his arm up in the middle of the night (I've caught it when I got up to goto the bathroom) and THEN he runs his fingers up and down his arm. It is the weirdest thing ever! I didn't believe him until I caught him doing it in a dead sleep. Now when I see it, I'm like whatever, it's like white noise.
      

    BFP: 5/10/14 after 14 cycles of trying!
    EDD: 1/21/15

    5/30: 4th beta: 17,852 + saw fetal pole and heard heartbeat! 127 BPM!
  • DS is 4 and was well worth the 23 cycles he took.  Two missed m/c.  I'm on CD13 following the second m/c so no idea how long this wait will be to O.

    I like to sleep with something in my arms so I still have stuffed animals in bed with me.
    Me DOR amh .64 ng/mL

    BFP#2 10/13/11 DC 11/4/11
    BFP#3 12/6/13 Lost 12/29/13
    Told IVF is the only option and have not found a clinic that will take me.



  • Me: DS (2 y/o) took almost three years to conceive with RE. No AF, diagnosed u/e. We never prevented after him and i actually tried to chart and go to OB once in awhile to get a period on their instructions. No such luck.

    Starting back up with RE this month after saving up money. Nothing is covered.

    QOTW: do you have any unusual sleep habits and if so what are they?
    I have to have a leg up on my husband. He has to sleep on his back and let me put said leg across him. Pillows won't do the trick. He gets so irritated. I only need it to initially fall asleep.
