IUI & IVF success! Graduates from "TTC through Donor IUI or Donor IVF or just undecided - all welcome!" thread #itcanwork #weareproof

[taydex]

Hi all,
Thought it was about time we had a thread for all those graduating from the IUI/IVF with pregnancies/babies.
Little introduction for those who don't know me:
Age: 37
Method: IUI due to being in same sex relationship
Clinic: Bourn Hall near Cambridge
Success: Baby girl born 20 October 2016 following 5 rounds of IUI (plus 2 more where I ovulated early so abandoned cycle). 4 medicated rounds then 1 unmedicated which is the one that worked.

Isthis - sorry to hear things aren't proving to be straightforward. You've hopped onto the wrong thread and I'm not sure any of us have any experience of Serum.

The other thread I'm on is the 'TTC using IUI/IVF thread but I'm pretty sure no one there has used Serum either...

Perhaps worth doing a search for the clinic name on MN and you're bound to find some useful threads.

Ah sorry. I thought this was the donor thread. My apologies.

Don't apologise! Here's a link to the other thread in case it is the one you were thinking of:

Hi ladies,

Have you seen details of the meet up on the other thread?

Shoes - any sign of bub turning round yet?

Hi Taydex

Nope! I think I have a stubborn baby! Although he has moved a bit this evening (I fell asleep in an armchair) and now I'm not sure if it's a head or a bottom that's digging into my left side. If it's the head it could be a good sign but I bet you anything that when I wake up in the morning the head is back in its usual place in the centre of my ribs!

Hey taydex I've just caught up on other thread. I would have loved to join in the meet up but unfortunately I have sciatica at the moment so staying up North with family so I can get some help / support. It would have been lovely to meet everyone in person - hopefully there might be another one x

Hoping - I am sure there will be more meet ups, and not just London cos a lot of us don't live there.

Shoes - you've just made it too comfy in there. Mya was exactly the same. I would totally opt for a planned c section over squeezing a melon through something more like the size of a lemon any day! Just think of the benefits, no damage to the downstairs for a start, that's gotta be a good thing 😀

Hi ladies, just thought I'd do a quick check in. I love the other thread but it's moves a bit too fast for me to keep up. My partner and I are all ready and set just waiting for the day now which should be literally any day. Time suddenly seems to have frozen though!

How's everyone else doing?
