Iui

[Ttc2017]

Hi is there a current iui thread please

How did it go I'm just lying down till I feel bit less drugged up lol all went quick and they left 3 follicles 2 were good ones n one smaller one that they don't think is likely to do anything x

That sounds promising! I've just got home, my clinic was running really late due to the snow so a lot of waiting around this morning but all went ok. I thought they'd scan again today but they didn't so fingers crossed everything is ok. Hope your feeling less drugged up now. Just the long 2ww now! x

Hi really glad all went ok all ok here to thank you they were very busy this morning but managed to get done in time I've had bit of bleeding afterward but I read that's normal so hopefully it will be nothing x

Hey sorry for the delay. The nurse said to me to expect some spotting and that it's really common afterwards, I've not had any but as I sayy nurse warned me and said it was normal. I only had to phone if I was concerned after a day or so and it was heavier than spotting. Hopefully it's just how your body reacted and all is ok.
I'm exhausted today, had a nap once I finished work at 5pm I think the nerves caught up as the adrenaline from today left me x

Aw thank you i was really tired to i think it must be an effect from the injectables how you feeling today x

When is your test day they have told me mine is the 23rd

I'm so distracted and still a bit sleepy to be honest, it's hard to stay focused at work. That's weird, I've been told to test on 22nd wonder why you need to wait an extra day, I was told day 15, day 1 is treatment day. I think that will be hard as I'm at work so be thinking about it all day but will have to wait until I get home. x

Yeah I thought it was weird waiting extra day. Do you think you will test early I think I will as would rather find out by negative test then by AF showing up. I'm so tired today too thought it was just me so I'm glad you said that to. X

I think I might do not just a day early on the Sunday so I know rather than wait till after work on the Monday. Part of me wants to test earlier but worried I'll get hopes up too early. When are you thinking about doing yours?

Yeah that's good idea. I start new job on the Monday so I don't want to be in negative mood for that. I guess I want to have the chance to do a test even if negative not sure why lol I will hold off long as possible but I might end up starting at day 12 As I think af may show by then if not successful. I got very very faint bfp 12 days post iui last time I think x

Congratulations on the new job. Wow what a time to be starting that, yes you don't want to be testing that day, more than enough going on. Have you been put on the Cyclogest pessaries? x

Thank you. Yeah talk about timing haha. Yeah I started them last night have you? I hate them last time and it stresses me out every night worrying I will forget to do it x

Yes, I was supposed to start Monday night but forgot until Tuesday night. I have to do one every morning and night, I struggle with the morning one the most. I still feel so tired and cramping now but I've read both can be symptoms of the pessaries. How are you finding it this time round, do you think having been thought it successful my before has helped or has it just made you more aware/over thinking things? x

I don't think it's helped at all if anything it's made me worse because I'm trying to compare which is silly as all pregnancies or non pregnancies are different so I don't want to over think. I am worried about how gutted I'll be if it's negative got so much on at moment but time is dragging. How are you finding it ? I've been tired too did have a bit of cramping but not really any today. I've eaten loads past few days so need to watch I don't eat too much lol x

The progesterone is horrible how you finding it I remember from before also it made me feel nausea and bloated etc and it's kicking in again now just got to ride it out I guess x

I could see how it would be easy to overthink things by comparing. As you say every pregnancy is different so if you feel any different this time may not be a bad different.
I'm ok, I switch from thinking about it all way too much and being distracted at work to almost forgetting and then stopping myself just in time from having loads of cups of tea at work. I'm feeling uncomfortably bloated and drained. Normally a bit of a night owl but I've been in bed by 9/half 9 every night since Monday. If it works it will all be worth it, it's just the not knowing isn't it! It took me a very long time to completely commit to do this as there was always a hint of doubt I was doing the right thing and nerves about being on my own, that's still not completely gone to be honest but this wait has made me realise even more, how much I do want it (still a tad petrified if I can single parent and be any good at it) x

You will be an amazing single mum. I will never ever regret and never have regretted my decision to go it alone with my DD. Of course I had times where I thought what they hell am I doing am I crazy but i know she is my world and I am so lucky to have her. So hard to not think about everything right now isn't it I'm going mad already and still got ages left lol x

I think for a long time I let myself get hung up on what other people in my wider circle would think, like colleagues wider family etc and couldn't face the questions or gossip but then realise they aren't the people who mean the most to me so not to let it hold me back. Definitely over thought things. One for these people who will take ages to decide but when I do it's all go 100% in. How did you find it with your DD? did you find much stigma in choosing to be a single mum? I see mates with bf or husbands struggle with a baby so that's scary - they have support. I just wish this wait was only a week not 2. I may have bought a pregnancy kit today... Just to have in case I change my mind about testing early, made me feel like I was doing something! x

When do you think you will start testing? I was suprised actually that basically no one batted an eye lid I was almost disappointed I didn't get a reaction haha I had geared myself up to have to answer loads of questions or judgements but everyone who knew me well was not surprised and said good for me and go for it and a few joked that they had watched tv programs about it and sperm delivery services haha. Plus hundreds of single mums out there who's baby daddy's have done a runner and going it alone and also lots of lesbian couples who use donors these days so the child will never be totally alone in their situation x

Think I'm going to try wait til sat to test was going to start Thurs but not sure I can handle the disappointment so I'm going to make most of this week and get lots done in house and for work I think if it fails I could get af sun maybe earlier or later but I want to test before just so I've done it really x

I know I think because it's a big deal to me it's easy to assume it will be to other people and in reality most popel in my wide circle probably couldn't care less if I was pregnant let alone how. Mad the things that you over think or let hold you back. It's encouraging to hear you've had such a positive experience to the point that your doing it again.
I think after could be as early as Thursday for me as I have a shorter cycle. I'm a bit tempted to Wednesday evening now but really work to hold out a until Sunday. I think I'm more worried it will be positive early then negative come next Monday as the trigger injection can sometimes make a false positive if you do it too early. It's weird I was ok until the weekend and now time seems to be dragging x

Aw that's exciting that you can test so soon let me know how it goes got my fingers crossed! If it's negative now though don't let it get you down as it still very early and might be positive a day or 2 later. I've ordered tests that should arrive Fri so I can test sat x

How you doing @AJ2021 have you tested yet I'm feeling so nervous and worried incase I get negative x

Hey, you must be psychic. I was just doing one and negative 😔 on plus side AF isn't here but I think this late to have a negative it's pretty sure I'm not. I'm going to test again Sunday like planned but feeling rather deflated. I was more worried from the drugs, doing good too early I'd get a false positive.
When do you think you'll do it, are you going to wait until Sunday? x

Aw I'm sorry about the negative try not to get down though it is still early with my DD I got a negative at 10dpiui then at 12dpiui I got a very very faint positive. I'm going to test Saturday as I'm hoping I should know either way by then x
