Renee - Hey!! girl don't give up... u r positive and soon u will be PG. I had 2 failed IUI with Clomid. In my case I was ovulating fine and all my levels were good too still my RE said "Unexplained infertility" that was killing me. so I started with IUI and clomid(50mg) though I responded very well with clomid I couldn't get thru...
then my re said lets go for IUI with Injectables as it's no use to continue with clomid and wasting your time. With injectables its 6 weeks program with many U/S to keep chk of your follicles and cysts. during this time I developed cysts from clomid since we didn't want to waste this cycle and wait for the cysts to go by itself the RE removed my cysts. then I did 2 back to back IUI. I think doing back to back IUI is same as doing one IUI as far as the money is concerned... not sure coz my incurance had convered upto 6 IUIs....I know I have given too much inof I thought just incase if any of this might hellp you. Oh! I also took ababy asprin and 1mg of folic acid and Progrestron. Your time is just round the corner.... :)
Lili- I am happy for you that u will be seeing your baby and hearing the heart beats.. :) have fun and enjoy....
I'll be gong for my 2 U/s on the 14thof June (9th week)
Good luck to all the ladies out there.... :)

Shan, Thats nice that our cycle are close, lets keep our head up and try again this month. I should start af on Friday for sure, but I'm having cramps off and on now and some lower backache, so maybe she will come tonight or tommorow. I just want her to hurry up and get here so I can try again.
Postivegirl, thank you so much for your info, it was very helpful, so this was your 3 IUI. My re called back and they are going to do IUI again with 100 mg clomid, she said they would change drugs but my body responed very will with the clomid, since I made 3 eggs and my lining was even better then they excepted. So I dont know how many more cycle of IUI and clomid?? I know injecables are more excepnsive, I dont have any insurance coverage. The cost of clomid was 52.00 and injecatbles med was 850.00 just for meds. So IUI with clomid is 700.00 and with injectables it would be 1500.00. If I'm doing good with clomid, go you think it would be better to do injecables? The only think about injectables, I'm afarid of making to many eggs, then they would cancel my IUI, Because 3 eggs with clomid was enough for me. Thanks again for sharing your story.
Love Renee

Renne - Yes, you responded very well. Yes, injectables are exp.too. I too was afraid to make too many eggs but made only 2 (the size was 17 and 23) and one got fully matured. I was not hoping for twins so it worked for me. I didn't know that if u make too many eggs u have to cancel the cycle. you can also go for "selective reduction" that's what my RE told me. since you are going for clomid make sure that u don't have any cysts (due to clomid) it does not always happen but usually the Dr. chks for it before proceding with the next cycyle.
I wish you good luck for this IUI. It will all go fine... :)

Ladies,
After how many weeks can you find out the gender of the baby? I am still not sure if I want to find out just curious to know... both I and my DH like surprises... :)

Hello Ladies sorry to take so long to respond.
Stacey85, Lili246, Rnorst, Shan1234 and Destinybaby thank you so much.
Shara,
It took my brother long enough to send them to you. I had to keep after him. You know how those 20 year old are.
Jess,
I'm feeling like I'm still pregnant when it comes to the pain still in my groin area and my swollen feet.
Ange,
I'm still feeling the same pains with some extra pains. The delivery went well. I had him natural. I'm still going to ttc but it will be at least 4 to 6 months from now. I need to feel better and heal from the car accident we had.
Ladies Keep the Faith!!! It took me 14 years and I'm loving every minute of it. Chance has stolen everyone heart in this house and it is beautiful. Love you all.
Love and Hugs

Postivegirl, When I start my af, I need to go in between cd 1-5 to do a baseline u/s to check for cycst and make sure everything looks ok, Thanks so much for your advice. So how are you feeling? I'm not for sure maybe 11 or 12 weeks?? I didnt find out with my son, but I think the next baby I will find out. I cant wait till then.
Well girls no af yet. I have been having cramps off and on yesterday and today. Usually when af cramps come they are here to stay until af show up?? My temps this morning was 98.8, I thought that they might go down since I stopped the progesterone. I think they will drop tommorow and get af then. Yesterday was a hard day for me, I though for sure I was preg, I was so tried last night that a took a nap at 6:30 in the evening, I never do that, I think it might of been from all the stress. I'm 100% better today, back to normal and Praising God for all He has done for me and will do for me. Thank you girls so much for helping me though yesterday. Once af starts I will go back to re for a u/s and b/w to make sure everything looks good for IUI #3 well # 2 with my new re.
Love Renee

Hi ladies
Renee, so sorry to hear about your bfn! I have been praying hard for you, Jess, Shan, and Tia especially every night. Keep the faith sister! It will happen for you, I know it! I was listening to the radio this morning and there was a program on about worry and anxiety. Luke chapter 10 is all about not worrying and just enjoying the days we have and trusting God. You sound like you faith is very solid though Renee. Remember sometimes we must walk through fire to be stronger.
Tia girl, we are in the 2ww together. I pray really hard for you since IVF is so expensive and difficult!!
Jess, keep your chin up girl. We are all tempted to get discouraged and that is a natural reaction. Things will happen when the time is right (I know, I'm sick of everyone telling me that too, but I still believe it.)
Shan, hang in there girl! Maybe you and Renee are meant to be pg buddies!!
Lili, keep us posted after you finally get to see your baby!
MH, congrats - he is beautiful.
Sorry if I missed anyone! Love and Baby Dust to all!

Hi Ladies,
Heather, you are such a sweetie, thank you for your prayers, yes IVF is soo costly, I pray that you also get the BFP. How is going for you so far and when do you test. I test next wednesday. I am getting nervous a little a had some cramping yesterday and some today now it gone. ???

Tia, yes, I'm already to try again, I hope and pray for sucess this time. Dont worry about the cramps I think thats normal and even a good sign. Wed will be here fast. I'm praying for you.
Well girls, I though af was here yesterday, but it was just spotting. This morning my temps dropped down to 98.1 and she is here for sure now. I called the re to tell them that it was cd 1 and I go in this morning for a u/s to check the lining and make sure there is no cyst from the clomid. I will let you know who it goes.
Do you girls think it would be ok to drink green tea, even if I was on clomid??
Love Renee

Renee – I’m glad your af is here. I’m hoping my af will be here tomorrow. I’m ready to try again. This cycle I plan on using preseed, taking prenatal and drinking green tea. I’m going to leave the Ovulex out this cycle. I feel like I need to give my body a break from taking pills.
Lili – How was your dr. appt? Did you hear your baby’s heartbeat? Let us know.
Tia & Heather – Good Luck on your 2ww.
Shara – How are you feeling? Do you have any pregnancy signs yet?
