What is the most random thing you’ve ever watched all the way through on Netflix?
Most recently I watched Barkely Marathons and that was pretty random and awesome! I don't run but kinda love adventure movies/tv. It was great...so extreame. If anyone remembers eco challenges from back in the 90s its a little like that...extreme challenges with out as much of the politics and reality tvness.

Most random (awesome) thing I ever binged on Netflix was 'Making a Murder'. Very interesting!!
GL to everyone this cycle!
Me: 31, DH:33
TTC since October 2015: MFI
Summer 2016: 3 IUI's: BFN
October 2016: Switched RE's and began IVF cycle
December 2016: Retrieved 13 eggs, 12 mature, 9 fertilized with ICSI. 5 day ET of 2 blasts with 4 frosites left. BFP!!!! EDD: 8/30/2017
August 25, 2017: It's a Girl!!
April 12, 2019: FET, BFP!!! Baby BOY EDD: 12/29/2019
This cycle was weird. I went in on CD 39 to consult with RE and she prescribed provera to end the cycle - two days later (before I had picked up my rx), I got my period - it was brown and clotty but required a pad so I called it CD1. Went in for a US and blood draw. Lining looked good like it had shed, but my progesterone levels were very, very low. RE said to take the Provera and come back. I'm CD 50 right now and expect to have my period around CD 60.
Month/Cycle: I honestly don't even know about this point. According to FF I am on my 16th cycle (17th would be the IUI) and month 51.
CD or DPO: Im a still taking provera. CD 50.
WAYDTGKU: This cycle we're doing Gonal-F + Follistim + Progesterone. Both Clomid & Femara did not work for my cystic ovaries.
IUI Date: Unknown

WAYDTGKU: prenatal vitamin, vitamin d, femara + estradiol, then progesterone post iui
IUI Date: tbd but probably 2nd or 3rd week of July

What is the most random thing you’ve ever watched all the way through on Netflix? I'm not with the times and don't have Netflix! My hubby says I watch enough tv
hoping we all will get our BFPs this month!!
Month/Cycle: 20/24 not counting July (had to look that up, lost count!)
CD or DPO: Stopped estradiol and progesterone today, now waiting for AF so I can officially start July's cycle
WAYDTGKU: This cycle the plan is to try femara instead of clomid in hopes that my lining fares better, and progesterone after the IUI. Taking prenatals, omega-3's, ubiquinol. Drinking raspberry leaf tea and pom juice before O to help lining (they didn't seem to help last time but I like the taste just fine so still giving it a try). Also acupuncture every couple weeks.
IUI Date: TBD
Testing: TBD
What is the most random thing you’ve ever watched all the way through on Netflix? Hmmm...maybe Twin Peaks? That was a strange show.

DH: 41
Married 10/25/2014 / TTC since 05/2015
1st IUI 05/05/16 Letrozole 7.5 mg CD 3-11 + Ovidrel = BFN
2nd cycle on Letrozole 7.5 mg CD 3-11 + TI = BFN
3rd cycle on Letrozole but did our 2nd IUI on 07/01/16. 10 mg CD 3-11 + Ovidrel = BFN
Onto IVF! Started Lupron on 09/24. Added Gonal F and hcg injections 09/26...... Trigger 10/07. EggRetrieval 10/09. Starting PIO, Estrace, and Medrol 10/10/16. Transferred 2 "strong/beautiful" embryos 10/14/16. Beta 10/28/16 = 998 mIU/mL = BFP with one baby, but miscarried at 9w5d.
D&C on 12/06/17 and started taking BCPs 01/10/17 for the next IVF Cycle, which officially began stims on 02/18/17.
Fast Forward: we got 4 fertilized embryos from that cycle. Transferred one fresh, but it did not stick, so we have 3 frozen embryos currently. Went in to the fertility clinic in July to talk about a FET of one of those three frozen embryos, but a new fibroid was discovered, and I was not cleared to do the transfer until I had fibroid removal surgery.
08/11/17 had a mini-laparotomy / myomectomy to remove 6 fibroids, largest sized were the size of golf-balls! Once we were cleared to go about our normal lives (sex!) I got pregnant NATURALLY but it was a chemical pregnancy. The very next month we had another BFP and here we are now with a baby on the way! A TOTAL AND COMPLETE MIRACLE!

AF arrived today. I just talked to the nurse on call this morning and she is calling in the Femara to start on Wednesday. And we set up the mid cycle ultrasound Friday the 15th. So if all looks good IUI would be Saturday the 16th. I'm excited, yet super nervous. This is a lot of money to spend when you have no guarantees. Fx and good luck everyone!
@Toby102008 it really is so expensive and time consuming and frustrating BUT when we get out miracle it will all be worth it, let's keep telling ourself that!!! Good luck!!!

we up'd my dosage this cycle but not sure it helped my right ovary my last couple of cycles seems to be sleeping had one folli at 10, my left side had a whole bunch but only one at 27 which seems pretty big and ready to go on its own right?? Have another at 15 so I'd love if that one would catch up! Had another 5 less then 13/10 whoa!!! Makes me nervous as I have a low reserve so I hope I'm not wasting the few I have left. Pray it all aligns and I don't need IVF. Wanna laugh my consolatation for ivf is the same day as my IUI. Still have to keep on trucking for some success.
Happy 4th to all hope everyone is enjoying!!!

I thought for sure they were going to cancel or make me wait because AF started yesterday and is already ending, but I called and they said since I had a full flow all day yesterday and it was bright red that it counts and AF and I can still begin the Femara and continue as planned. Thank god! Does anyone else have very short periods and know if it can affect ovulation?
madasm0530 I hear ya about the waiting/canceling of IUI's. I also just had a crazy long cycle. Hopefully July will be our lucky IUI and BFP month
jkd2388 What is your favorite tv show? Nice to have someone else on their 2nd IUI with me. I hope this is your lucky one!
meli123k Sorry about the negative beta Hopefully good things will come this month. Did you find any side effects on the estrodiol?
Hopeful_mom Love Mindy Project! I don't know about the comid but I sometimes get some crazy sensations in my ovaries when on the meds (Fermera/Letrozole).
elisam511 That is awesome that your follies were mature so early! Mine always take ages ...if they mature at all! FX for you!
lady_grey That is awesome that your insurance covers IVF after 6 IUI's! Bob ross!! Love..and amusing too! I liked heart of dixie the first few seasons.

Starlight811 FX to you this cycle! Hopefully 6 is a lucky number!
Toby102008 I hate long cycles...didn't mind them before I was trying to get KU but now they are so frustrating and really draw things out.
MMD1986 I hope you have a nice break from it all!
daboz Hopefully you have some awesome mature follies...ready to IUI
Isthisthereallife Hopefully the AF wait goes fast.
daboz That is awesome!!
kaityh1 It was hard for me to pick a netflix show too..I have watched what feels like almost everything.
Toby102008 Sounds like we will be IUIing on similar days if I get mature follies this cycle.
Welcome everyone! Hopefully this will be a lucky month for all of us!

@MMD1986 Hope you are able to enjoy some well-deserved rest and relaxation! Take care
@Hopeful_mom I hope things work out for you to trigger soon with your OH's schedule! We are also planning to have an IVF consult this month, I was reading up on it more this weekend but ended up just stressing myself out. I already have a long list of questions to ask the RE...just found out a friend of mine is considering IVF as well, so I may have someone to talk to in person during the process if we decide to go that route, which would be very comforting! But at least there are also supportive ladies here no matter where we end up.
@daboz Really hoping this time will work for you!!! Japan sounds amazing, but also difficult to move so far away. Best of luck to you on your move!
@Toby102008 My periods tend to be pretty short, usually 1-2 days full flow then tapers off pretty quickly. I then spot for several days after. It hasn't affected ovulation for me, but our diagnosis is unexplained and possibly my thyroid is affecting other things. I really hope the femara helps you ovulate this cycle! I'm giving it a try this time too, because the past couple times clomid made my lining thin.
@BecauseLove I saw that too and thought it was a really cool idea! Looks like @Monica54321 set it up, but she has moved onto the IVF/FET boards (Good luck Monica, hope things are going well for you!)
Today is CD1 for me, so I'll be going in Thurs morning for an u/s and if all looks good hopefully start on femara Thurs evening. I just had my thyroid tested again over the weekend and am worried that may throw a wrench in things like it has in the past, but I should find out in the next couple days if it has stayed stable...fingers crossed!

Can't take credit for this idea though, I saw someone on the IVF board use this and thought it was awesome. Hope it helps us! Link below!

@isthisthereallife For some reason I can't open the link. If I copy and paste it into the Internet it then tells me I need permission to access the file. I requested access so I'm not sure if you have to do something to accept it or what. But we will see if it's just my phone or if other people can't access it either.

I've started reading about IUI success rates, and how the timing has to be PERFECT. I've read about the meds and the lining and all the things that need to align for it to happen. I'm thinking what if my husbands sperm count isn't enough. At his last SA is was 7mil. Our RE said that it wasn't great, but it was doable and that hopefully that number will have gone up since 6 weeks ago when we last tested. Then I start worrying that thus far, I've been told that there shouldn't be any issue with me conceiving, but what if there is? There are so many of you amazing ladies who suffer from PCOS or unexplained fertility. It's just so, heartbreaking.
The point is...I'm starting to psych myself out. And the truth is...I feel like a "poser". Although we've been trying for a year, I feel like we haven't suffered enough to earn my badge as someone with infertility. I'm scared, and anxious. Does anyone else feel this way? If so, what do you do to bring yourself back to reality?

The one thing I wish I would have told myself before my first IUI is that I shouldn't expect the first one to work just like you can't expect for your first month of TTC to be a success. I got myself all worked up and then when it didn't work, I was an emotional wreck and wasn't ready to start the process over again. I'm still really nervous about this time too. And then I think about all the other ladies on these boards who have been at this a lot longer than I have.
I just keep reminding myself that this is all out of my control and it is just another step I have to take towards having a child. Good luck to you!
