TWW post (week of 11/2 - 11/8)

emsmama15 · November 2015

Hi everyone! This is a two week wait post for anyone who is in or soon will be in the TWW. Tell us your symptoms (no matter how crazy they may be!), how many DPO you are, and when/if you'll test. Good luck everyone!

(I'm chanting "BFP...BFP...BFP" in my head. COME ON Pregnancy gods!! Throw us a bone!!

)

Currently at 12dpiui. I've had some nausea. My temps have started to come down so AF is probably lurking around the corner

I will POAS Wednesday. FX to everyone testing this week.

I am 7dpo- I have one more week to go! Ai yi yi! Every cycle I have been TTC about 2 days before AF shows up I loose my breast tenderness (which shows up 1-2 days after ovulatiom.) It's like clockwork and I am terrified of it, it's so crazy accurate that I really don't need to take a HPT if it happens. So I wait for it to go away or stick around, and if it's still there by next monday I'll test. I'm still working on being less stressed this cycle and that has been much better. Over the weekend I subbed a bunch of prenatal classes at my yoga studio so I have been in contact with over 50 pregnant ladies this week. Some of that HCG has to rub off right??? :-/

5-6 dpo today and feeling nothing. At this point my chart looks like every other chart of mine (pg and not pg) so I can't even try to make a guess yet as much as I stare at it.

We're leaving for vacation tonight and I'm not bringing my thermometer. We return Nov 11 so if AF isn't here by then I'll test the 12th with fmu. So I won't be around until then. Hoping I have good news when we return, and hoping to hear others have good news too!

agriffin92013 · November 2015

@Sinnet hope you have a great vacation

Sporty1216 · November 2015

Probably 6 DPO. I don't have any symptoms and wouldn't expect to, really. I feel calm, which I am taking as a good sign.

it's a crazy busy week at work, which may help time go by more quickly. AF is due 11/11, so I won't test before then and will try to wait at least a few days to see if she shows on her own. Hoping and praying that this is our cycle. And doing the same for the rest of you in the TWW too! Come on, BFPs! Let's see ya!

@sinnet--have fun!

agriffin92013 · November 2015

BFN this morning so I'm out. Wait for AF to see if the RE will do another round

lickastick · November 2015

Aww shucks @agriffin92013 sorry about AF :-O

Sporty1216 · November 2015

Dang it. I'm sorry @agriffin92013 I hope the RE is open to trying again.

agriffin92013 · November 2015

Thanks

agriffin92013 · November 2015

Go next week to sit down with RE and see what the options are if he says IVF I'm out. We decided when we started this journey IVF was not an option for us. I do have an appointment for my first acupuncture visit Saturday so maybe that will go somewhere. FX for the rest testing this week.

Sporty1216 · November 2015

I hope he will continue to work with you--or be able to refer you to someone who will. Glad you were able to get an appointment to discuss options with him.

@agriffin92013 If your RE isn't open to trying another IUI, find another RE. I'm in the TWW of my 7th IUI, and if I wanted to keep going for 10 or 12 IUIs, my RE would let me (although my situation is a little different, since I never tried to get pregnant at home, but started with IUIs from the start).

I am at the point where if this IUI doesn't work, I will go for IVF. My RE thinks it's a good idea because the success rate is so much higher, and she's beginning to suspect there's an adhesion near my right ovary, since it always hides out behind my uterus, and that can screw with my ability to get pregnant even though no problems showed on the HSG.

But she's doing a cost-benefit analysis, and thinks I might be wasting money on IUIs if there's a problem. If I wanted to keep doing them, she'd let me.

So if this RE doesn't support your desire to try more IUIs, find another RE.

Sporty1216 · November 2015

I feel like I'm getting my hopes up. I hadn't really eaten today, and then we went out to dinner at a diner. There were tons of things on the menu that i would normally love, but none of it sounded good. Had a salad and a cup of soup. And then apple pie a la mode. That hit the spot! Anyway. I want it to mean something. These next few days are gonna be long....

lickastick · November 2015

@Sporty1216 I hear ya! I'm on the final home stretch to AF or ??? on monday. The last part of the TWW is agonizing. FX this is your cycle!! Btw I ate dessert with every meal yesterday...

agriffin92013 · November 2015

Had my initial accupuncture appt today and it was much easier than I thought. I'm scared to death of needles lol. When I first told Dh I was thinking about going he laughed and asked me how was I gonna lay there and let someone put needles in me when I'm scared of them

Sporty1216 · November 2015

Way to go, @agriffin92013 ! And, @createillumination --we'll make it through these last few days, but boy are they long. Filling them with desserts helps though. Haha.

jilligan14 · November 2015

Dear Fertility Gods/Goddesses: Please grant one of these lovely ladies a BFP very soon. I mean, SOON! We need some good news ASAP. Thanks.

(meanwhile I'm back in the waiting-to-O arena, cheering you all on!!)

Sporty1216 · November 2015

Thanks, @jilligan14 ! We can all use all the cheering on we can get.

as much as I love seeing all of you wonderful gals in here, I hope we are all moving on to be graduates ASAP! Come on come on, BFPs!!!!

lickastick · November 2015

I'm out, AF came a day early. Good luck for those who are still waiting!! Come on BFPs!

KLake42 · November 2015

BFN for me. That means I get to learn all about IVF now...

agriffin92013 · November 2015

sorry @createillumination and @KLake42 FX for your next cycle

Sporty1216 · November 2015

Shoot. So sorry @createillumination and @KLake42 I hope the next time is THE time.

I'm still waiting on pins and needles here. AF is due on the 10th. If she doesn't show (please, God!), I have promised myself I won't test until the 13th. We'll see how I do (or whether I even need to worry about it).

carrieandr · November 2015

@KLake42, I'm sorry you have to move to IVF. I hope there is a bit of excitement in that as well, though. When doing what you've been doing isn't working, moving to the next step brings new possibilities and lots of hope. Fingers crossed for you!!

lickastick · November 2015

@KLake42 rough day! Sorry about AF [-O< T&P for IVF. @Sporty1216 FX times a million for you.

emsmama15 · November 2015

@KLake42 - I'm sorry! I was so hoping this one would be the lucky one for you! Thinking of you as you move on. It took me a while to grieve getting pregnant semi-naturally (if IUI an be considered natural), but I'm finally excited about IVF. I hope you can get to that point too...

dolphin012 · November 2015

@KLake42 so sorry about AF

. I am glad you have a next step though.

jilligan14 · November 2015

@KLake42 so sorry that this last IUI didn't work out. There's so much sadness, frustration and disappointment with the whole TTC process. I'm glad you have a plan moving forward. My fingers are crossed for you that you get to achieve your dream of motherhood very soon.
