I never thought I would wish for morning sickness over cramps, but I certainly would.
I just got back from Florida. My husband and I went down for a wedding. It took my mind off of my test this week. I haven't gotten my period yet, but I am not sure exactly how long to wait before taking it. I had the IUI done 2 wks ago tomorrow. Any suggestions??
I ran into an old friend at the wedding, who has 2 beautiful children, both from IUI. So, I know there is hope.
I am 38; DH is 37. No children; PCO; 1 partially blocked tube; 2 failed IUI's; 3rd IUI cancelled; 1st IVF in May resulted in m/c; 2nd IVF in August, BFP on 9/6/05.
I have been posting for about a month now so I'm not sure if you have seen me around but I saw your post and I think you could test anytime now. IUI is equivalent to the old fashioned way only quicker as the sperm are put directly into the uterus so 2 weeks is more than enough to test using an hpt. Good luck and make sure to announce the good news which I am keeping my fingers crossed you will get!
36 years old. Married for 17 years. 1 son, 7 years old, conceived w/ ICSI. 2nd IVF w/ ICSI in June=No Fertilization. August cycle cancelled for poor response. Considering options.
You should be able to test today and definetly in the am before the blood test. Good luck my friend I am praying for you. Baby dust, baby dust, baby dust to you sue.
Oneandonly, I am glad you can finally start your process. I was so happy to get my first period after m/c to. It made me feel somewhat "normal" again. Good luck with this cycle.

Well, I called my dr today to have a blood test on Wed., but I just got my period 10 minutes ago...aghhh!!! I was really hoping this time it would work.
I talked with my dh and we are going to try one more IUI and see what happens. I hope the results are better than the first 2 times. First time, 1 egg matured by Day 17, this time, 1 egg matured by day 10. At least it matured quicker the 2nd time. I have read on here that the small or medium size ones continue to grow from cycle to cycle, so maybe that will help. Who knows, it is so frustrating, I just feel like screaming!

Sue- I hope the end of April brings good news!

Thanks for all the good luck wishes. After my m/c, when my doc said to join a message board for support I didn't think it would help. But it really has helped to see that other women(sadly) have been through the same thing. If only every pregnancy was perfect... I'm getting more and more excited.. and I really hope all of us ttc in April will have good lucK! Or for that matter any of us ttc has good luck. Thanks for listening! -Samantha
