Wasting Time

So AF came on 12 dpiui this time. I thought since I got past day 10 I was good. Obviously not the case. AF came when we were BDing. Then when I went for Beta on the 5th I had a large follicle so I have to sit out this cycle. So I'm waiting until Sept 5th or until AF comes to start the next cycle. The nurse practitioner was going to increase my Follistim to 75 this time so maybe that will work next time.
DH also went and got me the IR diet plan book. I thought that was really sweet of him. I just need to find time to read it now.
I also started my PT job to help out with some things and to take away some financial stress from us. Its not bad, just waitressing a few nights a week. We'll see how it goes, I might only stay until christmas or as DH says until I get pregnant. ( I think this is just wishful thinking on his part.)

3dpiui...

Okay so its 3 days since IUI and I POAS tonight to see if I still had HCG in my system. Only got one line. This seems early since I have read (somewhere) online that it can take up to 10 days. I guess its not that bad since its 5 days from the trigger. I keep forgetting to take my second dose of the progesterone suppositories. Tonight I finally got in my second dose. I am worried that this cycle is not going to work due to my stress level again. It seems that all hell always breaks loose the week of my IUI. It NEVER fails. So looks like I am almost one week down of my 2ww. (at least the way i am thinking bc I usually get AF day 9 or 10dpiui, so that would be next thursday/friday spotting). So next friday we'll see if AF rears her ugly head.
xoxoxo

2nd day of IUI

So IUI #2 of #4 was completed today. 20 million with 98%motility. yesterday was 15 million with 97% motility.. and only one follie. Hopefully this will be enough. I did the Ovidrel trigger at 6:15Pm. Also I should note that I might have messed up the last cycle b/c I took my ovidrel and another dose of Folistim the night before the IUI. This time when I received my phone call I asked if I was suppose to do my Ovidrel and my Follistim or just my Ovidrel. The nurse was very nice and was like "Noooooo, only the Ovidrel". So I am guessing that this was a No-No. So this time I only did the Ovidrel. LOL.
I test on August 5th so I am officially in the 2ww. I also was wondering if the Ovidrel even worked in me and wondered what a BFP looked like so tonight I came home and POAS and it didnt change for like EVER. I threw it away, came back and happened to look at it and it was BFP. So for whatever it was worth it made me happy to know at least my body is capable of carrying any amount of HCG. I know this sounds crazy but it makes me feel better for some reason.

4th IUI scheduled for tomorrow

Okay so I have been so busy that I have not been able to log on to update my page.
IUI #4 is scheduled for tomorrow morning. We did 58.3 of Follistim this time. Only one egg on the left side. Drop off is in the a.m at 8 and then we have to be back at 9 for insemination. We will do Monday and Tuesday back to back.
other updates: I am all moved in to my new office. YAY !!! The oven and refrigerator both were fixed last week but the air conditioning is NOT fixed and the house feels like hell. Also the washer machine broke so I scheduled a maintenance call.. of course he cant come out until next friday. GRRRR

AF in full force

Okay so AF in full force. Called dr's office and I have an appt for tomorrow at 8:15 to do baseline (blood work and ultrasound). I think that we might do this cycle on our own and pick up again next month since I would have to pay for the medicine out of pocket. Was thinking that I could work out at the gym this month and pamper myself and then get back on the horse next month. I mean whats 4 weeks of trying on my own... i mean I do have leftover clomid so maybe I will still take that days 3-7 and then BD over the next week after and just see what happens.... would appreciate anyone's thougts on this. ohhh, also i know two girls that went to a clinic in annapolis, Md. it guarantees or money back.. both got pregnant. The one lady i know has also been trying for years. I love my clinic though and really dont think I should make a change just yet... I've only been there since October and this was only my 3rd iui. Again.. any advice welcome.

9 dpiui and spotting

So the 9th was 9 days past IUI and I started spotting, on the 10th it lightened up but by today day 11dpiui I'm at full flow. I called the dr's office and awaiting the baseline appointment. I haven't reached the sad stage yet... still angry. Not sure if I'm going to do this cycle or not as my cobra benefits are not active so I dont even know if I can afford the medication at this point. Waiting until the doctor calls me back. =(

8dpiui and Sharp Pains

So last night I had sharp stabbing pains in my right side. It came suddenly lasted about 10-15 seconds each time and then passed. Some pain on my left but not as sharp. This is not cramping like normal (for me). tonight I also had more sharp pains, didnt want to bother my RE so i called my referring OBGYN. I got the no call doctor who was not helpful she told me to wait until tomorrow and the thought of a tubal rupture came to mind. So kinda nervous b/c I know my tubes are not completely "open". Also i went to fill my script of the prometrium and discovered that my last employer already terminated my insurance so that really pissed me off b/c i thought that I would have had until July 30th. Also waiting for the 10th because that will be 10 days from IUI and usually I start spotting so anxious to see if I will get AF this cycle too. Keeping the faith until then... and gonna call the doctors tomorrow =)
