    Denise I thought you piggy backed?
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Callen did you do meds?
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    I went back to back days for insemination. I'm not sure if that is considered piggy back or not. I got a positive opk at 8am Friday and went for insemination #1 at 8am Saturday and #2 at 8am Sunday
  • callencallen Member Member
    I did 1 IUI this round with Ovidrel.
    I always seem to get my opk around 3 in the afternoon and ovulate at night. The night ovulating makes me crazy because I worry the sperm will be dead. Hence why I need to do back to back IUI 's
    So Monday if this is negative then I will do the back to back for sure.
    I am kinda already down in the dumps dreading the negative results.
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Callen don't think like that. I have been peeing on these opk for months and realized the other day I ovulated on a second pee stick in the afternoon. I even read that opk's should actually be taken in the afternoon and not morning urine like hpt's. And that up to 10pm at night is okay. So who knew. I feel when I ovulate but not every month. I did in June and this month. It just felt like a quick sharp pain on one side of my ovaries.
    However, many, many women get pregnant with one iui. So don't get discouraged. Get excited your almost there and this is going to be your month!! You know you have all of us praying, crossing our fingers, crossing legs (not me on the legs imma whore), and it's still early.
    When are you thinking of testing?
  • callencallen Member Member
    Hey IPosh. Thanks for your kind message and great vibes. I need them. I have been just down today. I go Monday morning for beta. Should I test before then??
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    What day will you be this weekend? Maybe try and wait so you don't get a false positive because it's too early. For instance Denise didn't test positive till after her missed cycle.
    I am the office today for second iui. They did an ultrasound and said two eggs dropped. I've still been having some pain but she doesn't seem concerned. So she def thinks I ovulated lastnight and hopes I don't fertilize both eggs. I told her no I'm down with the twinzies. But truly will be happy with one healthy one. I feel pretty happy about this cycle. Now I'm really in the TWW club with you guys!! I'm working on really taking it easy and thinking nothing but positive thoughts.)

    Holy cow!!! It's about time. Didn't think the boards were ever coming back up.
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Trying to navigate this new thing. But glad it's back. I missed y'all.

    I meant to tell you guys. At my last iui on Friday I was really hurting. So before the iui she ultra sounded and yes it look like two of them released but I have free fluid in my abdomen. She thinks My ovaries are overstimulated. So my stomach is swollen, hurts, and it's hard to get comfortable. I worked today and did ok and work tomorrow but literally if I cough it hurts. Idk what I should do.
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    Wow! That felt like it was down for weeks!!!!
    Lisa, is there anything you can do about overstimulated ovaries? It sounds painful for sure
  • POT03005POT03005 Senior Member Senior Member
    We are back...
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Denise, I think I feel a little better today. Not so bloated and painful. But still kinda hard to take a deep breath. And I just sleep on my back with my knees up to take the pressure off. Hopefully it will decrease each day. I go back Tuesday morning for a progesterone blood test. I guess if I'm not better ill mention it. The only thing I read on helping it is increase salt intake and drink Gatorade to get the fluid through my kidneys and out.
    Also, I really missed you guys. I did and didn't realize how much I love talking to you and kinda depend on you being there. I always say how great meeting you guys has changed my experience. And when the system was down I realized again how much I really do need you. I mean only you guys understand everything we go thru. Okay I'm gonna stop being sappy now.
    Denise- how is pregnancy feeling?
    Kerri- how are you feeling 3 dpo?
    Tx- are you hanging in there? I'm sure having to skip this month was disappointing. And I hope the time flys for you to start in a week or two.
    Callen- did you test?
    Again, glad we are back in touch maybe exchanging numbers and email through private chat would be a good idea. If you are all comfortable.
    Kisses

    Wow !!! Finally back ... How r u girls feeling?
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    I admit to trying to log every other hour all day yesterday!! Are you guys able to use an app on your phone? My app will no longer work and I have to log on via the website which isn't as convenient as the app.

    I do not feel any different now than I did during my TWW! I know it is still pretty early but I am but tired or nauseated or anything else like that
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Denise try going to lower right of phone and see if your phone gives you an option to put this on your main screen.
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    I kept getting unsubscribed from this thread but my mobile app seems to be working better now. This tww is torture, day 4 and counting!
  • jle010102jle010102 Member Member
    I have not been able to find the app for my phone, I only have the app for my ipad. Can someone tell me how to find it on my iPhone . Today I feel a lil nauseated and I have a stomach ache , I assume it's because I drank orange juice . I also know that maybe I'm feeling like this due to the meds I took
  • POT03005POT03005 Senior Member Senior Member
    What app are y'all talking about?
  • jle010102jle010102 Member Member
    The app for this forum on ur phone
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    Fairfax used to have an iPhone app but it seems to have disappeared.
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Have you tried V bulletin app?
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    Lisa, I followed your recommendation and just saved this page. It will take some getting used to but at least we can all chat again!
  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    I can't find the app for the iPhone or iPad anymore either. I have it on my phone but I was trying to download it the other night in my iPad and I couldn't find the app. Guess maybe they aren't supporting it anymore or something.
  • POT03005POT03005 Senior Member Senior Member
    Lisa, you asked how I was feeling? I feel normal- tired but that is nothing new. Not feeling any different at all. How about everyone else?
  • JamieMU01JamieMU01 Junior Member Junior Member
    6dpiui & am over analyzing every last thing... Used hcg trigger so am going to wait it out. One more week to go...

    Sides of my boobs hurt today, that was a new one!
  • POT03005POT03005 Senior Member Senior Member
    sore boobs is a good thing I would think!!!! I am only um... 4 days if you count the day of the IUI. I figure in a week or so I'll do a test just to see if the trigger shot is out of my system.
  • callencallen Member Member
    Yay!!! Finally back up. I really have missed you guys!! I tested but still negative this am. I go for beta tomorrow morning. I track my basal temps and everything was looking really good until this am I really dropped. The weird thing is I had so many symptoms yesterday all day...boobs hurting nausea and mild dull cramps you name it then today...NOTHING!!! Very strange.
  • POT03005POT03005 Senior Member Senior Member
    Callen, I think most of the frequent posters to this tread all missed each other. Good luck with your beta tomorrow!!! I had found myself over the weekend thinking "where are my girls, my online support" and what if the site never came back up! :(
