Re: Anyone else on their TWW? I need some friends! :)

  • Sorry to hear @Radiantly and @Heath&Jas that you're out. :(

    I'm 9dpo. Was gonna try to hold out testing till Tues or Wed. We'll see. Having some cramps and fatigue that could either be pms or pregnancy. I got a flu shot today and the pharmacy asked if I needed the pregnant version of the shot. I thought..think positively...give me the safer one in case I'm pregnant! 2ww sucks

    Damn! I'm sorry @sonpetitlap, I'm getting cramps totally typical of AF so I'm losing hope as well... keep your chin up!

  • I've been testing like a crazy person...I was pregnant once before in life so I think I would be able to tell, could be wrong though. But I tend to doubt that I would feel EXACTLY like I was about to start my period if I were pregnant, and that's why I'm losing hope.

  • Ladies, I've had more wine tonight than I should have. A couple glasses and I'm definitely feeling it since I've not been drinking hardly at all. I feel horrible and great all in one. :ar!

  • @Icwed I know that can be the case, so who knows! I just had another negative and I'm 12 DPIUI today. Actually 13 if you count the first day (I had it done on both a Mon & Tues) but I didn't ovulate until Tuesday so I'm not certain. I am tired today and a little depressed, don't know if it's AF or what. I'm not feeling so great about going in to get a blood test only to confirm it's negative.  Guess I'm being a negative Nancy right now... There's still some hope yet!

  • @vballbaby thanks! I am OK.  It sucks.  But I have no room to complain.  I have three blessings as it is.  I am getting to the point I should be happy and blessed for what I do have.  Every pregnancy is different.  And remember, AF symptoms are similar as early pregnancy symptoms.  So until AF shows up you are not out.  FX for you!!!!

  • Ugh, anxiously awaiting my 3pm phone call, had my blood work done this morning. BFN on the HPT today though, so it's not looking good as far as I can tell. no pms symptoms though and I'm due for AF tomorrow. I'll post the news later whether good or bad! I'm prepared either way. Anything @mysallygirl? Still holding out some hope for all of us here who are waiting!

  • Thanks ladies, it will probably be IVF for me next cycle, Dr. says he doesn't want to waste time at my age on IUI's (it was actually my idea to give it a try, he was ready to go straight to IVF). Thoughts on this? I've read the average for IUI's is 6 cycles so it makes sense not to wait.

  • @vballbaby I'm so sorry this month wasn't the news you were hoping for.  :(  BOO!

    I'm 12dpo and held off testing today.  No af yet.  No news yet.  Trying to hold off another day or two before I test and see if af comes on her own.  I'm still hopeful...I hate these last few days of 2ww.

    I'm so sorry.  Honestly, if I were you, I'd probably go on to IVF.  My doctor didn't want to do more than 2 IUIs with me before moving on (we did the 3rd just because of scheduling--I couldn't get started with IVF anyway, so why not?)

    However, I see that yours was just a clomid IUI, not Femara or injectables.  If you really don't want to move on yet, it couldn't hurt to ask your doctor about a middle-ground option like this.  Really, though, I'd just go on to IVF.  Hugs.
