I also had a friend tell me after I told her my results were negative that she thought it was a bad idea, as no baby should be born knowingly without a father. I told her it was completely inappropriate and inconsiderate for her to share her personal opinion at this time. She apologized but you can't take it back. I took the day off work today and need to get outside now to get some perspective... Thanks again for your thoughts
I hope this is just the ebb and flow we feel sometimes going thru this process. I hope and pray your dreams will come true very soon.)
Hugs and kisses to you.
Congratulations on your transfer Lisa!! Yay, I'm so excited for you!
Tx, don't think like that. As long as you didn't really strain something, all your walking did was keep you in baby-making shape!
Congrats Denise!!!! I want a girl so bad I'm trying to adopt one to make sure I get one. So jealous and happy for you!!
Ok, so yes I know the new donor. He will literally be at my house in a few hours to make the donation. We have done a completely natural cycle and I've been temping and peeing on opks and they say today is the day. We are doing at home ici. Donor's gf has been friends with my wife since they were 5 and he's been offering since before I agreed to try to get pregnant. No romantic overtures, just thinks it's stupid how expensive and complicated it is for lesbians to have a family. Medical is all good. Actually a very healthy family. Private donor insemination agreements haven't held up in SC court in the past, so I'm really nervous, but since our marriage will be legal soon, it shouldn't be too hard to have him terminate parental rights so the "step-parent" can adopt the baby if they won't recognize my wife as the other parent at birth. Crossing fingers and flinging baby dust to you all!!
How are you Lisa? And wasn't there one other person in the tww?
Denise and Kerri how are you ladies doing?
Tx, I am great. We officially announced today on Facebook. We are at the beach and had an airbrushed shirt made for Charlie that said "Big Sister" and she held a sign up on the beach that said "April 2015 I am being promoted."
How are you doing?
I'm doing ok. No symptoms or anything. But I don't think that I would already. The suppositories are horrible, but I'm still doing them. I'm still trying to get the insurance company to reimburse the first 3 IUI's. I'm trying to let the dr. office work it out with them to keep myself from stressing but, if I find out next week that I'm not pregnant I will be getting involved. Especially since I'm going to have to take a month off from trying. I'm going to a conference for work and it's going to be right in the middle of trying to do ultrasounds and the IUI so I decided not to try this next cycle. I'm hoping and praying that this is the one that's going to work and I won't have to try anymore. Fingers crossed.
Fingers crossed you won't need a "next try." I didn't feel anything except sore boobs about 9 or 10 days in which is also a symptom of AF. Who knows... but I am cheering for you!!!
Really shorter periods? I don't know how much more shorter mine can get, mine only last 3 to 4 days now.
I starting my progesterone oil shots the day after my transfer. But not sure about the suppositories.
So I'm 3 days past 5 day transfer... So in iui terms I'm 8dpo. I had dark blood spot in my panties tonight. Not sure what to think. I made a darn promise to my nurse on my 91 year old grandmother I wouldn't test.
I'm nervous. Last month I spotted for a week before AF. So I don't know if this is that or implantation.
TWW is soo hard!!

Denise: great news! I am so happy for you.
Lisa: is your wait the same with IVF? How was your experience ?
I go back to doctor on Tuesdsy to re group. I switched to the director as I had bad experience during the ectopic w my doc. I have another HSG in the next 6 days or so to make sure that the tube is clear. Fingers crossed it is and there is no scaring. If all is ok I can try mid- November. This has been the hardest 3 months of my life so I am liking the fact I am starting to see the light even a little bit.
Hoping to have good news to share with you all really soon!
Hi Suzi, glad to see you back. I'll say a prayer for your HSG test.
I hope for all of us in TWW good news soon!
Goodnight.
Love you all.)
Baby dust for everyone. Miss chatting with you all.
Lisa when do you test?
Callen- I'm sorry things are difficult with the stims. I hope they are getting better.
Tx- I do beta on Wednesday. Which seems like forever and I'm terrified! And still have small brown spotting x3 days.
I can't believe it's almost time for Lisa and tx to test! So excited. Hoping for happy news for both of you!
I don't test until next week. Seems like forever away though. I've been extra crampy and had wicked headaches every day. I think my hormones are all sorts of confused after using all those meds and now going off of them. Withdrawals...who'da thunk it?
I'm dreading tomorrow.
