@LAZB: might ask for vaginal next month. π€·ββοΈ
Took another test today and nada again, so I think it's safe to call it.
-
@Kaohinani: you did a better job this time
-
@Sams Mom: i was Mia yesterday but boo for still negatives. You need a break!
-
@Sams Mom: YES!
I did SOMETHING right today! π€£
today. -
@MamaBear87: @Kaohinani: I emailed my dr today and among many things asked if we're at the end of the road that he's involved. I haven't heard back yet, but I imagine some major decisions will have to be made in the next couple months.
-
@Sams Mom: I hope everything works for the best. Honestly, you getting your BFP would be phenomenal
I suppose what I'm saying is not to look at this month or next month as an end to anything (* time with your OBGYN, a chapter in TTC, fertility meds, whatever), rather, a different chapter and a stepping stone to move on to the next place you need to go to get the baby you so dearly want.
* Sorry for the novella.
-
@Kaohinani: the reason I've fought moving on to an RE aside from cost is the closest one is 200+ miles away.
-
@Sams Mom: I get you. If we are cleared for IUI, it can be done at the clinic by me; however, if we have to move on to IVF, it has to be done 2 hours away where the embryos would be stored. I'm praying my AMH comes back the way it did 2 years ago (* spectacular), and DH and I are candidates for IUI simply because of the time DH and I would have to take off from work, time for travel, coordinating babysitting, and cost for IVF. We may ONLY be able to swing 2 tries of IVF ... IDK if it would be worth the cost of egg extraction at that point.
Just keep positive and remember, we are in the same boat.

I just never thought I wouldn't be able to get pregnant for free. βΉοΈ

@Sams Mom: *hugs*

@samsmom: Chart for your perusal
-
@yellowbeach: I'm still convinced we've got a sticky one lady!
-
@yellowbeach: looks awesome! Test tomorrow?
-
@yellowbeach: I know it was only for "Sam's Mom's perusal" and all but the chart is up there so I'm looky-looing as well.
-
@Kaohinani: oh lol - she had specifically requested an updated chart over on the ivf board, but I posted it here instead since I know how much we all like looking at stuff
-
@LAZB: tomorrow I will be 5dp5dt. I suppose I can test but just need to not expect much yet.
-
@yellowbeach: just for funsies:)
-
I somehow was able to have enough self control to not poas this morning! Tomorrowβs results canβt come soon enough
-
@LAZB: Good luck for tomorrow's results. π€
I can't wait.
-
GREAT test results came back!!!
Keep in mind, my numbers were taken on the 1st day of AF, so both estradiol and progesterone will be far lower than during my "active" cycle:
CD 1 Results as follows: Normal
HCG- negative
Estro - 75
Prog - .04
AMH - 1.02 (* Great numbers for upper 30's/nearly 40)
FSH - 8.7
LH - 3.6
Prolactin - 5.15
TSH - 2.78
*** My cyst is just a corpus luteum cyst but I will still go in for a follow-up US ***
--- I have 3 follicles in my Right ovary this cycle.DH's results: Normal
Concentration - 88 mil (* they look for 50 m)
Motility- 57% (* 40% is average)
Morphology- 11% Normal (7% is average)We are APPROVED FOR IUI (* Happy dance
So flipping happy! -
@Kaohinani: WOOT WOOT! So happy everything turned out well!
-
@Sams Mom: Thank you!
I am soooooooo excited! A bit frustrated as well since the RE stated that with our numbers, technically, there SHOULD be no reason why we haven't conceived a 3rd child yet... but, that is what further testing is for. I'm going to think of this as an "adventure" and the path I'm meant to be on.
-
@Kaohinani: Best news of the day!
-
@yellowbeach: You know what will make @Kaohinani: , @LAZB: , and I even happier? If you pee on a stick tomorrow
-
@yellowbeach: Thank you! I'm pretty stoked to say the least!
-
@Kaohinani: Wonderful news! So amazing. Extra merry Christmas for you and yours this year.
-
@Autumnmama79: Thank you!
Definitely good news heading into the new year!
-
@Sams Mom: I'm resisting the urge not to do it right now!
-
@yellowbeach: If you're looking for a voice of reason you're going to have to look somewhere else
-
@yellowbeach: I'm impressed by your willpower. I know our first IUI cycle, I'm going to be itching to test (feeding into Sam's Mom's stick gazing obsession.
I can only imagine how you must feel each cycle knowing an embie is already there and just needs to implant. So stressful AND exciting at the same time!
Honestly, I secretly hope you POAS tomorrow and get a beautiful BFP; however, I know it may still be early and you may want to wait a couple more days. SO, no pressure from me. -
BFN on the OSOM, but not FMU and only 4dp5dt. Will test again in the AM.
-
@yellowbeach: I take back my previous post
In all seriousness, you are UBER-early for testing. Your BFP is coming...
π€ -
@Kaohinani: I know
and not a false like last cycles, so Iβll take it for now.
-
@yellowbeach: well boo! But there is still time π€π€π€
-
Mannnnnnn, we're dragging butt over here.
I am counting the minutes down to the weekend. I was excited because we were supposed to get a pretty big snow storm, because then we could take our son sledding. Buttttt noooooo, the weatherman lied to us.
-
@Kaohinani: your numbers look great! Iβm sure they will get you knocked up in no time over there
@yellowbeach: sorry about the bfn, but you are right, non fmu at 9 dpo was a long shot. Tomorrow will be more telling! -
I tested this morning and got the faintest line - I have wondfos rn but I went out to buy FRER and will test again in the morning. I might be crazy - that line is blink-and-you'll-miss-it. AF is due Wednesday. I feel different than I have approaching AF lately, so fingers crossed -
-
@LAZB: Thank you, lazb!
Knocked up is definitely the goal! -
@Clementine12: we love pee stick pictures!
today. 
Definitely good news heading into the new year!
and not a false
