Mrs Castillo
I cannot believe your beta is still positive. I'm sorry, that blows! How can you stand to watch Teen Mom? Every time I even start to watch it I want to reach through the screen and strangle those little bitches. It pisses me off they those are the fertile people. (to be fair, my idea of good reality TV are shows of the genre Worlds blankest blank, lol) Also, what kind of cup is this? Is it a complex complicated cup? :P
TTC #2 since 1/1/13
I am watching some elephant cartoon on Disney channel, which is obnoxiously overwhelming & counts as 2 sounds...
Lots of BFN's & failed IUI's w/clomid and/or femara
Finally BFP with femara & t.i.- son born 6/17/2010
Started TTC again around when DS was 3ish
Lots of BFN's with femara & t.i & ovidrel
Tubes clear, S.A came back low motility but high count
About to switch to injectables w/femara, did one last cycle with just femara & an IUI with ovidrel- stupid motility was fantastic in the sample, but count was 700,000 AFTER wash! Had to sign a paper to even still do IUI- BFFP (big fat freaking positive) Go figure!
1st Beta 13dpiui 54, 2nd beta 48 hours later 115, 3rd beta 48 hours later 310, 4th beta 72 hours later 1748.

Factor V Leiden Homozygous, Advanced Maternal Age

IUI#3 BFP, DD 5/31/2012
TTC #2, 2 yrs, PCOS, Femera+Ovidrel
IUI#2 BFP!
Around CD 5? Endless heavy spotting and AF are running into each other, I find it difficult to find the difference! Tomorrow and Monday they are taking another look at a potentially problematic fibroid. DH was put on a new multivitamin by the RE. In reviewing all of our test results, basically we have a whole huge pile of "borderline" issues. Tests keep coming out just below or above the "normal". Gah.
QOTW: At the moment that you read this, what are the two most overwhelming sounds your hearing?
Fridge and fish tank. The fish tank is from school. My son has been begging for a pet. And guess who exclusively takes care of these fish? Yup, me. No new pets coming into our home and so glad we can return these in September.
DS #1: April 2010
DS #2: July 2015 (preemie born at 31 weeks) - our little miracle conceived through ART - unexplained secondary infertility/adenomyosis
QOTW: EH snoring and the TV.
