Starting yet another thread on self insemination before our second one locks down!

Welcome to THE most supportive group you could wish for if you’re starting or you are already on a self insemination journey.
Remember, nothing is TMI and you are not alone. 💖

Calling the usual suspects, in no particular order (and sorry if I missed anyone 😊):

It’s official: I can no longer keep up 😆

Love the new thread name, sensing some natural marketing skills in this group hahaha

@rs2015 welcome! I also struggle with vaginismus, it’s so much more common than we think...

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 19:03

@Birchybirch thank you for the warm welcome. Sending you lots of baby dust x

Birchybirch · 19/01/2021 19:01

Welcome @rs2015! Yes I've never discussed SI with anyone other than my doctor the other week, and on here. I agree that nothing is ever really tmi, we're all pretty much in similar boats with similar experiences, so the hints and tips we get from each other are priceless.

Wishing you all the luck and baby dust! My dh can't finish with sex, so this was our only option really without medical intervention x

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 18:16

Congrats @Cathie102 that's really reassuring to hear! I wish you a happy and healthy pregnancy! When I can figure out how to PM you I will definitely take you up on that offer 🤣 x

Cathie102 · 19/01/2021 18:14

@rs2015 - welcome! I just managed to get a BFP from SI also due to vaginismus. Feel free to get in touch with any questions or any support you need. I know how shitty it is and how much you probably feel like you’re the only person in the world who has to do this! You are not, it’s much more common than you think. This thread was a life saver for me and I hope it will be for you and that everyone in here gets their BFP

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 18:13

Thanks you @Lori23TTC and @Makingnumber2! Sending you all baby dust x

Makingnumber2 · 19/01/2021 18:10

Thanks for moving us over @eloiseislost Smile and I love the new name! And yes- let the BFPs rain down!

Welcome @rs2015 you're definitely in the right place for support with all things SI-related Smile it's great you guys already have things in place to help with vaginismus and check sperm count etc. Hope this cycle is the one for you!

Lori23TTC · 19/01/2021 18:09

Thanks for the new thread @eloiseislost 🥰

@rs2015 welcome to the gang! Wishing you lots of luck xx

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 18:09

Thank you @eloiseislost. I'm going to spend some time reading through the previous thread to catch up on where everyone is in their TTC journey

Welcome @rs2015 💖
It's very good that you and your DH have had tests done and you are working on your vaginismus. You are doing all the right things! 🙂
It's only normal for the mood to fluctuate during TTC, it feels like time stands still sometimes, I completely get where you're coming from!
I hope this thread brings you luck! 🍀

Thank you @Bluey18! I'm wishing for baby dust for you all too x

Thanks for the new thread @eloiseislost 😁. Welcome @rs2015! Everyone is so lovely and supportive here. Wishing you lots of baby dust ✨

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 16:42

@Sydney1986x thanks for being so welcoming! We have been trying SI for 8 months now with no luck. I have just had all my blood tests done via GP, just waiting for an ultrasound appointment. Husband has also had a sperm analysis and just waiting on the results. I am also seeing a gyne for support with vaginismus which is going well so far 🤞🏽some months I am positive, others I get overwhelmed and impatient 😩

Sydney1986x · 19/01/2021 16:36

Loving the name 😂👏 it made me giggle!!

Welcome @rs2015 of course you can join 😄! How long have you been on your SI journey? I agree, so difficult IRL and here is such a safe and supportive place xx

rs2015 · 19/01/2021 16:28

Hi everyone, can I also join the group? I'm also using SI as I suffer from vaginismus. You all sound like such a supportive bunch, it's so hard for me to talk about SI in real life! X

MrsKin90 · 19/01/2021 16:25

😂 are you sure nothing is TMI?! Sounds like a challenge! Thanks for starting a new one 🥰

Birchybirch · 19/01/2021 16:19

Haha, I love the name! Hi everyone 👋
