I have 3 cycles (including this one) to get pregnant before that April 30th date as that appointment will be about CD 26 of that cycle. I am SO hoping that now with a date set that I will be able to cancel it! </p> <p>has anyone attempted any of the fair haven health stuff? I did order my husband some FertilAid for Men, although, his numbers were in the normal range. I figured it wouldn't hurt. I did order fertile tea for myself as well.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25/page/2#post-2063847 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 08:57:08 +0000 NorthStar 2063847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sarahnicole218: @Crystal: Thanks, ladies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25/page/2#post-2063658 Wed, 11 Feb 2015 01:40:22 +0000 Crystal 2063658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NorthStar: welcome to the IF boards, and I hope your stay is short Keep us updated about what the nurse says. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25/page/2#post-2063572 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 22:59:12 +0000 Miss Sarah 2063572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NorthStar: So sorry about CD1 :crying: Not that it's ever a good feeling to join the infertility boards, but welcome! Fx that you graduate soon! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25/page/2#post-2063423 Tue, 10 Feb 2015 21:06:47 +0000 NorthStar 2063423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, I think that it's time for me to join over here. I could use the support of ladies who have been through it. It's CD1 for me and onto cycle #19 for our second child. I've been doing Letrozole for 5 cycles, maybe? I've lost count. I ovulate regularly and am seeing an acupuncturist. </p> <p>The OB wants to have a meeting to discuss next steps and she doesn't have an opening until mid-March. I asked if there was an RE in town (I live 2 hours from Minneapolis) and the nurse said that one will be coming into town once a month. Her first time up here is end of April. I asked if I should do that instead, so the nurse is going to talk to the OB tomorrow to see what she thinks. </p> <p>I've got to say, I'm feeling down. Will just have to see how the next few days play out and it sounds like we will be going intervention free this cycle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2060180 Mon, 09 Feb 2015 05:59:57 +0000 babycanuck 2060180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: No interventions...FF told me I O'd a week later than normal and I hadn't seen DH for a week so I was like F it! If I did actually O when I normally would, we dtd 0-5, 0-3, 0-2 and 0-1. I totally put my bum on a pillow, not that it would make a difference! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2060111 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:46:14 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2060111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: we ordered a car seat online. We forgot that our town basically shuts down on Sundays, so I'm a little angry with myself that we didn't get a ton checked off the list today.</p> <p>I did drink some wine tonight and that was nice... But with four days left I need to be more productive! I only have four work days to tidy all my work too. Aaah! And all this for something we're not 100% sure will happen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2060108 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 23:41:23 +0000 Crystal 2060108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: squee! Congrats! </p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I hope your name wins! :silly: get any shopping done? Are you having a "sprinkle" or shower? </p> <p>@sarahnicole218: it truly is a relief! Please report back tomorrow with what the infertility rep says!</p> <p> @AmeliaBedilia: you have accomplished lots this year with the house and participating on that conference committee! I can completely relate to the struggles with TTC overshadowing other things, though. Don't stress about age, it's not like a drastic drop happens the day you turn 35. I really hope you get your baby soon. ❤️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059875 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 19:22:26 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2059875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: sounds like twins! I'm going to start calling you fertile myrtle! I couldn't be happier if it was happening to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059812 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 18:18:16 +0000 Hoots 2059812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: So happy to hear you had great beta numbers! I totally rooting for twins for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059759 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:37:02 +0000 BSB 2059759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AmeliaBedilia: fingers crossed for you! It would be great if you could join out Oct due date thread. We got 3 IFers so far! :goodluck: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059756 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:31:42 +0000 BSB 2059756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hoots: That blog is hilarious!! Thanks for sharing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059750 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:25:16 +0000 BSB 2059750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: Woohoo for the different coding!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059747 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:20:07 +0000 AmeliaBedilia 2059747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@babycanuck: Sending good thoughts your way. I remember you thinking this was not the month. My temps have been a little wonky, so yours gives me hope. Did you use any interventions this cycle?</p> <p>@sarahnicole218: Hugs! So annoying when you're led to believe something and find it is more expensive!</p> <p>@travellingbee: Two babies? That sounds really hard. Hoping for a sticky baby soon!</p> <p>@jaguar: Hugs and prayers!</p> <p>@Hoots: It is so hard when fertile window doesn't work well with trips and such. For the first year of TTC, DH lived 1.5 hours away during the week, and it was so stressful to coordinate BD times with O.</p> <p>@Crystal: Yea for hysteroscopy coverage! Thinking of you.</p> <p>@bluestriped bee: So glad you're pregnant! I'm excited to hear about your ultrasound.</p> <p>AFM- CD20. I think I O'd on CD15 (CM and that I always O then). FF says I O'd CD17. Our timing if CD15 is o-4, 0-2, and O-1. If CD17: o-4, O-3, and O-1. We've been working on the never-ending list of things to do for the farm we just bought. We have meetings with contractor, heating, sunroom, etc. and there are so many options that it is overwhelming. It's super hard when I am such a perfectionist and want to do everything perfectly. Our contractor said the renovation will probably finish October-December. If this is the cycle, I'd be due in late October. I'm trying to use this as a way to soften the blow if I'm not pregnant- that it would be really challenging timing. Of course, we all know that if I get a BFP, I'd be thrilled and will figure out a way to make it work. Also, I turn 35 next month. My birthday has never been that big an issue, but this one is the big "fertility drops so much" and this is the first birthday where I haven't accomplished something I really wanted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059745 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:17:27 +0000 BSB 2059745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: Thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059729 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 16:01:34 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2059729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: Wow, that's high for 16dpo! Hope it's twins :) So glad something finally worked for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059725 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 15:57:28 +0000 BSB 2059725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So today's 3rd and final beta was 1413! Today is 11dp5dt or 16 DPO. Little one(s) are doing well.<br /> With today's numbers, I'm going to call my OB tomorrow and see when they want me to come in. Other than that, I'll have to wait til the 16th to have my 5 week ultrasound at my RE. Wondering how many sac(s) we'll see. :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059407 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 09:45:56 +0000 Miss Sarah 2059407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: This is all so exciting! The time is almost here!!! :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059401 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 09:35:32 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2059401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: I think we're going to have to see the little guy. I'm stuck on one name and Mr. Jacks on another so we're either looking at a compromise which neither of us want to do or something completely new. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059363 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 08:40:58 +0000 Miss Sarah 2059363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hoots: Hugs! :goodluck: Also, I'm going to have to check out that series!</p> <p>@Jaguar: That's frustrating, I'm sorry!</p> <p>@PurplePumps: It was the doctor's office financial adviser, who supposedly talked to my insurance company. I'm going to call our insurance's infertility rep to try to get some better answets tomorrow morning!</p> <p>@Crystal: Thank you...and I'm excited for your recent insurance discovery...what a relief! :grin: </p> <p>@TravellingBee: Hugs...totally know the feeeling. Fx this next cycle is YOUR sticky bean!!! :goodluck: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059280 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 02:39:06 +0000 Crystal 2059280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: lol! Good thing you went through your list! Did you decide on a name yet? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059277 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 02:34:33 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 2059277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: well, I've been on service for the last 21 days so we haven't done much! We realized today that we don't have an infant car seat anymore :o</p> <p>We still need to get a birth mother gift and secure babysitters for while we're at the hospital. We don't have any diapers or formula or a pack n play. But even if the baby has to sleep in the laundry basket, we'll make it work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059274 Sun, 08 Feb 2015 02:24:15 +0000 Crystal 2059274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hoots: I keep hearing about that series- I'll have to check it out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059115 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:38:49 +0000 Hoots 2059115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: Woot on the insurance coding!!!! That's awesome. </p> <p>On a side note, I may have had too much wine tonight. I suppose it's one of the perks to being not KU. I also randomly came across this today, which made me laugh really hard: <a href="http://www.noneintheoven.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.noneintheoven.com/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059111 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:27:47 +0000 Crystal 2059111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hoots: I hope the timing works out- I hate when my body is wacky and throws things off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2059108 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 21:24:50 +0000 Crystal 2059108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bluestriped bee: yay! Grow, embies, grow!</p> <p>@babycanuck: I missed your BFP! Congrats!!!!</p> <p>@Mrs. Jacks: how exciting! How much left do you have to get done? </p> <p>@sarahnicole218: that sounds so frustrating, ugh. I hope your dr can shed some light, and you get a clear answer soon on the billing! </p> <p>@jaguar: I am so sorry, friend. </p> <p>I just found out that my dr was able to receive authorization for my hysteroscopy under regular insurance, instead of coding it as infertility, so it will be covered!!! I am so happy! We were able to schedule surgery for feb 20th. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-check-in-25#post-2058959 Sat, 07 Feb 2015 19:16:44 +0000 Hoots 2058959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jaguar: :sad: </p> <p>I've had a pretty crappy week. Among other things, I'm pretty sure I haven't ovulated yet, and I have make an unexpected solo trip out of state this week. I took an OPK I had left over just to see and it was more blazing positive than normal. Maybe I'll get lucky and ovulate before I go or shortly after. </p>
