Lposh, do you go monday for an u/s?
I do have my ultrasound Monday at day 11 I think then have her tell me hopefully when to do my profasi shot and then back to back iui's.
Btw I think my mom is going with me this time. She says anyway. I'll believe it when I see it.

My u/s is tomorrow morning... here's hoping there are multiple follies this time.
My appt is at 2:00. I'm very excited.)
And don't feel alone about the emotions. Last month I cried in the team leads office twice and in the middle of the patient hallway because I was convinced people in another country were trying to steal my grandmothers retirement!! I had planned to take control of her finance's!! Thank God my Mom and friends talked me down.
Anything that was somewhat low/medium on the drama scale was a 12 in my mind!! Most of my co workers know now i'm on the meds..Guess it was only a matter of time before they had to know.

The thought of being a SMBC scares me greatly, although I have been focused on doing what I need to do since February when I had a surgery to have an ovarian cyst removed. Last month (July) I got +OPK, had my DS chosen, but then started to freak out with the possibility of being pregnant in 2+/- weeks, so I decided to wait until this month. I have read A LOT of posts on here and there is so much support on this forum that I now realize that I am not the only one out there doing this by myself. Only a couple of my friends (who are very supportive) know my plans to go this route. I have not shared this at all with my other friends and family (except to my brother about a year and half ago; kinda in passing) as I feel the emotional stress of being asked "How are things going" would be too much at least at this point. So for now I have opted to not say anything until I get a BFP. Has anyone else had a similar experience in that they feel they would rather not say anything to anyone about their journey using DS until they get the BFP and are planning for their baby's arrival!!
Texas, good luck and keep us updated!!
We last month I had one egg that was a VERY slow grower and we did an IUI after a trigger shot.
I went in today for my mid-cycle ultrasound and I have 7 viable eggs and 5 are already mature with the others hitting tomorrow if they keep growing. I am having my IUI done Wed/Thursday unless I show positive on an opk today. I about fell off the table witht he final numbers... I am a bit um nervous at this point.
Anyone do Clomid? I am interested to know your numbers... I know Lposh has her mid cycle today too.
Thoughts?
I'm at the ob right now. I am day 12 so I hope I am showing something good. I'll tell ya in a few!
Denise- how are you doing? Have you re tested?
Lisa
My ob did flinch a tiny bit when I told her two vials where there. She said I don't want to give you twins or triplets! I said yes on the twinzies no on trippsies.. Lol
But ultimately it wasn't an issue. So it went perfect. And my mother went!! I know I'm shocked my darn self. I'm she came.
And of course now one of residents at work asked me for a first lunch date Thursday. He doesn't know anything about this.
I said "I can't I have a doctors appt!" He said "I am a doctor too"
I almost fell over. I had no idea what to say.
I don't think he or I are prepared for that.. Lol
So it sounds like we are all in sync with our cycles and TWW.. lol very cool.
Denise- I'm excited no AF for you. I have a good feeling. And your so calm. I'd be freaking out!!
Tx- keep me updated on your ultrasounds.)
And welcome new ladies/friends to this thread. No one understands me like you. All of you have been my life line through this. Muuahhh

My wife and I are going for our first iui tomorrow and followed by another one on Wednesday , yesterday we went for the ultrasound and had two follicles one at 19-1/2 and other at 16 , we were told they wanted them to be a little bigger, what's a good size? The trigger shot was done today, wish us luck!!!
My numbers are: left 1.5, 1.3, 1.2, 1.1(they assume by Wednesday when I IUI that the 1.2 and 1.3 will be ready as well) they didn't say much about the 1.1.
Right 2.1, 1.9, 1.6 they consider anything over 1.5 to be good and 1.9 and higher mature. Right now I have 5 that are the right size and will grow between now and Wednesday/Thursday and at least one more that will catch up. I think that's right. Either way, I trigger tomorrow since I didn't get a positive OPK today. Here's hoping baby dust for everyone.
