My partner and I just had our first insemination this morning with donor 5228. It was the last vial of that donor so we have to keep looking if this attempt doesn't work out.
We are so excited and nervous....I feel like I should be on the couch with my ankles over my head letting my body do what it needs to do. I am trying to just relax and see what happens but....Ahhh!

Good luck and KUP!
That's exciting! Please update us with what's going on!
Good luck!
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you ualtigger..I wish you the best and hope your follicles cooperate! :)
Congradulations on your success Misty&Carla! It is very reassuring hear stories like yours...sometimes it's hard to be optimistic knowing what we all know....
Okay so it has been exactly 7 days since our IUI and I really do believe that this is the longest 10-14 days in our lives! We are so excited and want this soooo much I am really worried about how I am going to feel if it didn't work, and I know that the odds are not in our favor (again thank you misty&carla).
I don't know if it is my head playing tricks on my body but I have been feeling differant...
extreamly tired, breast tenderness and a headache for the last 2 1/2 days. I can't imagine that any symptoms would be here this early but it's how I'm feeling....Oh boy.
We are counting down the days and will keep everyone posted!
Again Congrads Misty&Carla and best wishes to ualtigger & virgo!!! :)
If you give in and test early, don't get discourgaged if you get a negative before 14 dpiui. We tested at CD11 and got a BFN, but tested on CD12 and got our BFP!
Let me know if you have any questions!
My partner and I were quite disapointed, it would have been a special to find out on mothers day!
But I know what everday we find out even if it isn't this attempt will be the most special of our life!
The wait continues!!!
I got my LH detection on my OPT this afternoon and I see my RE tomorrow morning... hoping to do the IUI tomorrow or Tuesday.
ualtigger...How exciting! Let us know how it goes and we'll be cheering you on during your TWW!
It is soooo exciting, keep us all posted and we will be here for you during your 2WW, it is tourture!!! I getting close to the end but...OMG!
I have decited that I'm not going to test again for another couple of days, it's too difficult to see that -sign. I do have a question for you guys though, is the day the IUI was done included in the countdown or does it start the next day? Just wondering because i am either 10 days post or 11 days post....
Thanks again misty&carla!!! Your encouragement helps get through one more day of not knowing!
Did the IUI at 0950 today... I had my nurse, Debbie do it. She was surprised that my cervix was wide open with TONS of mucus and she was so gentle, even when she inserted the speculum (which usually has me squirming since my cervix is small), that I felt almost nothing until the swimmers went in... then I felt a slight pressure but not uncomfortable... fact is I was asleep up to that point!! :-)
ualtigger...Yeah! You're offically in the TWW! What an exciting time! These next two weeks are going to feel like two months, so find things to keep you busy. :) KUP on your symptoms!
Definitely do NOT count the day of the IUI. The next day begins 1DPIUI (days PAST IUI). Your 14dpiui will be Sunday 5/16.
Keeping fingers crossed for you!
Sorry it took so long to post but we just got back from vacation and had no access to internet(kinda on purpose:)To top it off I was up on a ladder and fell off! That took me to the ER, I swore i had a broken hip. No Breaks just battered and brused, so thankful for that!
So we are going to do our 2nd iui in about a week. My only concern is my expected surge is next sat and my dr. doesn't work on sat. Well just have to wait and see...
Hey tigger....Truckloads of baby dust to you and best wishes!!! I cant believe you don't want to test, stonger woman than i thats for sure! :)
I'm sorry to hear about your BFN... hopefully the 2nd time works for you two. I STILL don't have the urge to test (probably because I put the HPT tests under my bathroom sink... outta sight... outta mind!! :-))
And, it's official, I'm LATE... and I've NEVER been... EVER. My nurse told me I can test tomorrow but I'm going to try and hold out for a few more days to 16DPIUI which is Wednesday... which would make me five days late.
You are one strong woman!
I read about your CM issue on Facebook and I told DP then that you're pregnant! That was one of my first signs! I knew that I only got that at one day prior to AF and I'd had it for about a week.
I'm so excited for you! Good luck and be sure to post as soon as you test! We're all waiting!
Tummy upset today... ugh... looking forward to testing on Wednesday which is 16DPIUI... AF is STILL a no show so I'm hoping thats a good thing. I guess I just want to wait long enough to try and keep from getting the BFN... saw enough of those before my IUI.
Like I said, I've NEVER been late... looking forward to my BFP on Wednesday!!
We are hoping to do our second iui at the end of this week or start of next! Big sigh....
Okay tigger so have you tested yet...we all want to know!!!
Best wishes and Baby dust to all!
Jess: Good luck!!
Dust, dust and prayers for all of us.
Best Wishes and baby dust to you.
We are doing our second this week....crossing fingers!
