Any other SMBC's in their two week wait?

[SMBCBtime]

Hello, I'm just embarking on my journey to become a SMBC. It's scary business but i'm also excited. I'm currently in my two week wait (4dpIUI). I wondered if there was anyone else in a similar position to me who'd like to keep me company on here? Either other SMBC's or non solo people post IUI? I'll be trying 3-4 rounds of IUI before saving for a year and moving onto IVF. Would love the IUI to work!!

Hi, what is SMBC?

Solo mum by choice x

Hiya! I'm sort of a SMBC in waiting - I'm a single lesbian TTC with a gay coparent. It's our second month of trying via home insemination.

Hi @lakejupiter cool! I was looking into the AI route a bit last night for in case this doesn't work. Interesting. Where are you in this cycle? Pre or post AI?

Hi there! I'm trying to become a smbc. I had one failed cycle and now I'm changing clinics for the next one and starting fresh.

How are you feeling so far?

Hi @IsabelHerna. Thanks for replying. Sorry your cycle failed. Do you mind me asking the reason you're switching clinics? I'm feeling ok. Have been pretty crampy for the past 12 hours, with some sharp pains overnight. I am only 5days past so I am sure it's nothing yet! I just cannot imagine this working first time!

@SMBCBtime thank you.

I am changing clinics because I didn't feel I was taken seriously. I wanted to be able to ask my questions, and feel supported and not just another number, just another patient.

Also, the other clinic (the one I'm going to go now), was abroad and I was affraid to travel cause of the omicron BUT they have an Embryoscope, meaning they have "eyes" all the time on the embryos.

How are you feeling now? Any updates?
