    I feel like vomiting during this wait. Tx- when do you get your results?
  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    Not sure. It's been different times everytime. Usually after 11 am. Which is quickly arriving. I've been nauseous all morning.
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    My beta was 6.3 which yes technically is pregnant but way to low. He thinks something is wrong. Probably a chemical pregnancy.( I go back Friday for a repeat.
  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    Sorry to hear Lisa!! Hopefully it's just a fluke and your numbers will be better Friday. I'll be praying for you.

    My results came back and I'm not pregnant.

    Sooooo sorry ladies. Y'all are in our thoughts!!! Lisa, hoping to hear something positive for you tomorrow.
  • callencallen Member Member
    I am very sorry Lisa. You are always in my thoughts. I hope you are doing ok.
    All you ladies are always in my thoughts. Believe it or not you all inspire me and help me each and every day.
    My IVF was changed to an IUI. I only have 2 follicles...the birth control seemed to decrease my estrogen way too much and therefore never increased fast enough to grow more follicles.
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Hey. So my numbers came back lower today . So they are having me stop the meds and I'll go in next Wednesday for consult to start FET frozen embryo transfer. The nurse said the FET was easier, takes six weeks, their success rates are higher because they create the perfect environment for the embryo.
    With that said I'm sad but trying to pick my spirits up. Thank you guys for the kind words.) I really appreciate your thoughts of care.
    Kisses

    Callen also I'm glad your cycle didn't get totally cancelled and glad they decided to do iui. Have you had your iui yet?
  • callencallen Member Member
    Hi Lisa. Hope you had a good day!
    I go in tom morning for IUI.
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    So sorry to hear the news Lisa and Tina. I start my shots tonight, then go in Tuesday to see how many follicles I have and whether or not we are going to proceed with the IUI or not. I think I will go nuts if I have to wait for a 3rd month in a row.
  • B4babyB4baby Member Member
    Got a faint positive at 12 dpiui at the beginning of the month, but then got my period. Dr. thinks that even though I make a lot of eggs they are not genetically viable. We just went in again on Tuesday for our 11th IUI. Two follicles on the left measuring at 18 & 18 and one follicle on the right measuring at 21. This is our second month using letrozole which seems to have much better results than clomid. We'll see what happens. I think this is our last try. This is getting way too expensive!
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Good luck to Callen, Jan and Baby.) I hope this is a successful month!! It's time for some good news! I have no doubts all of our dreams will come true!
    Kisses

    Baby sorry to hear it has taken so many attempts. Lisa keep the positive attitude. Percervience must lead to success we have to believe that.

    As for me, one week down, one to go. It definitely is a hard wait. I've been cramping a bit here and there, I'm sure from all the hormones. I just keep telling myself that it only takes that one time! Good luck to everyone
  • lposhlposh Senior Member Senior Member
    Krs- your right just one right cycle and it will come.
    Callen I hope your iui went well today and your fertilizing twins as we speak!!
    Jan how are the shots going? I hope Tuesday shows good results. What shot are you taking?
    Baby- congrats and I hope your TWW flys by.
    Tx- any news on what's next? Are you feeling okay. You've been in my thoughts.
    Kisses to u all.
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    Lisa, I am still trying the Follistim just dialed it back to 25 for two days and 50 for two days and we cut the Femara to one pill a day instead of two.
  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    Hi guys, I'm doing well. I'm taking this month off. I have to travel next week for work so wouldn't be able to have the ultrasounds and meds and the iui would be right in the middle of traveling. So I decided to just sit out this month. I'm going to find out what my insurance covers Ivf wise and see of I want to switch to that route. Good luck to everyone in the Tww.
  • brina2784brina2784 Junior Member Junior Member
    txgrl- Maybe the month off will freshen up your system. :) Keep us posted. Enjoy your month off and try to spend some time to yourself. I feel like trying to get pregnant is like another job. :/
  • callencallen Member Member
    Your right...it sure does feel like a second job.
    I am currently in tww again. 3 days past IUI. Here we go again.
    Hope everyone has a great day!!!
  • D-rizzyD-rizzy Senior Member Senior Member
    Good luck to everyone in tge TWW!!
    Lisa, what is your next step?
  • MoonlitwishMoonlitwish Member Member
    AF showed up last night. Didn't even have to buy a pregnancy test. I guess that saves me $7. Oh well, here's to another month of DIY! Getting pregnant is a second job-an expensive one!
  • brina2784brina2784 Junior Member Junior Member
    Good luck Callen! Keep us posted!
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    Not sure if this attachment will work or not but this is how I am feeling lately....need some humor in all this. Of course it is upside down which may be fitting, sorry don't know how to rotate it, the original file is right side up.

    Moonlit sorry AF came for an unwelcome visit. Will you be trying again next cycle? CalLen good luck, hope this time comes out successful.
  • krsb16krsb16 Junior Member Junior Member
    Today is day 13. I was going to take a pregnancy test but I think we have decided to just wait and see if AF comes. These past weeks have definitely been an experience and I have been over analyzing every feeling my body has!!!
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    TWW starts today for round #7, keeping my fingers and toes and anything else that will cross!
  • txgrl74txgrl74 Senior Member Senior Member
    Good luck ladies!! Keeping my fingers crossed also!!
  • krsb16krsb16 Junior Member Junior Member
    Good luck jan!
  • MoonlitwishMoonlitwish Member Member
    Krsb I will prob not be trying this cycle. Wife lost her job Tuesday so even the opks are over budget now.
    The good news is I am steadily losing inches from my waist that the hormones packed on! Maybe while wife finds new job I will get down to a healthy weight so I can make good eggs. The rapid depuffing is making me look like my mother. I'm not sure how I feel about that.
    Jan that graphic is freaking hilarious and sadly true for all of us I think.
    Good luck everybody!
  • janbabyjanbaby Senior Member Senior Member
    Moon sorry about your wife's job loss. I feel you with the weight gain, I am 20 lbs heavier than my normal weight and don't even get to be pregnant yet.
