    Hi nblondheim and highlyfavored-
    Glad to have some company. This waiting is hard! Lots of twinges inside.

    Keep me posted and good luck!

    I am wondering if they truly are twinges or my mind going crazy! :) I got lots of sleep last night and laid pretty low today. I am back to work tomorrow so that should help occupy some of my time.

    It is great to have others to share the 2ww with!!!!

    When do each of you test?

    I go in on Friday, June 28th for my pregnancy test.
  • highlyfavoredhighlyfavored Posts: 61
    I'm will be testing next weekend. Haven't really decided when. Don't want to get my hopes way up and then be let down. Debating on waiting until AF doesn't show when she is supposed to. The trick with that is that when I started ttc my cycle was 28 days but the clomid made this last cycle 24 days so when am I really late. So I guess waiting 2 whole weeks past IUI will be more accurate.

    Can't really say that I have had any twinges but I sure use the restroom frequently. And let's not talk about sleep. I get plenty and still want more. Don't know if that is just my imagination or what b/c I never paid it any attention before if it was happening.

    Thinking of doing some overtime at work to make more money and take my mind off of this 2ww.
    To do, to do oh what am I to do? Lol

    I completely understand about not wanting to get your hopes up but I think that's hard!!!I went to the bathroom 3 times in middle of the night. I'm lucky if I go once usually! I'm the same way with sleep....can't seem to get enough! Having any other pregnancy symptoms?
  • Lucky213Lucky213 Posts: 18
    I'm happy to find you both still here. I am going insane and cannot concentrate on work. I've had very dull cramps since the IUI. Yesterday they were very present. Today not so much. But they said this is normal and that pregnancy, period, and pre-menstrual symptoms are pretty much all the same so there's no way to know. I've been sleeping like crazy but I think that's because I've backed off exercise out of fear and my body isn't getting great blood flow which makes me have a lot less energy.

    My dr basically said, call us if you don't get your period in 2 weeks and to consider counting from the day of IUI even though I triggered early and my cycle is about 3 days shorter this month. That would be 6/28 for me too nblondheim!

    Scary thing is that I'm supposed to on a plane to Italy for work on the following Monday evening. I either go pregnant or will have lots of wine to forget! I figure no need to test with the dr as I will know one way or another.

    Are either of you doing acupuncture?
  • highlyfavoredhighlyfavored Posts: 61
    nblondheim, no other symptoms. None that I would say are pregnancy symptoms anyway.

    Lucky213, here until I get my lima bean...lol
    Scared to even get on the treadmill. Cut the grass a couple of days ago but just thought of it as what if I didn't do iui and were preggers and didn't know it then I would be doing what I usually do regardless. Idk, trying to go on day by day and not pull my hair out. We're gonna say you'll be flying out pregnant, so drink juice on the plane and in Italy. You're right about the poas at home either it is or it isn't.

    Have heard about acupuncture but didn't want to do anything way out of the ordinary. Plus don't need the added expense right now. Not really "into" acupuncture, meaning not knowing if it's a mind thing or what. But hey if it works for you then best wishes. I've heard a lot of ladies on here talk about it.

    Had cramping all day today but most of the posts on here say that is normal. Haven't seen whether or not all that cramping led to any BFPs or not.

    God Bless and Baby Dust!!!

    Had my first IUI on Monday and the second will be tomorrow. No symptoms except a little blood from the IUI process.
    Acupuncture is a must. My two friends that were having trouble getting pregnant got pregnant the first month they had acupuncture. I did it this month. Find out if your insurance will pick up the cost.
  • highlyfavoredhighlyfavored Posts: 61
    Unless it's hidden under physical therapy or something like that, it doesn't appear to be covered. I could call and check. But isn't it a little late for this cycle. Hopefully I won't need it.
  • Lucky213Lucky213 Posts: 18
    I have an insurance deductible for out-of-network which the acupuncturist i'm seeing is. So after a few sessions, it will be covered. it's worth checking into. If you get coverage and it has shown to have results, then why not try it?

    5dpIUI and still going nuts. All symptoms have disappeared. The acupuncturist made me give up diet coke/caffeine and I've cut back on my coffee intake (like a few sips in the morning now is all I do) so I am falling asleep before 10pm every night.

    It just takes 1 good one!
  • highlyfavoredhighlyfavored Posts: 61
    Same here Lucky. All symptoms are gone, except for yawning. Even the trips to the restroom have slacked up. Wonder what it all means. Caffeine hasn't really been a problem. I'm not like a lot of people I see that drink soda all day everyday. Maybe once or twice a week for a good belch..lol.

    Well 5 down 9 to go!!!

    Sorry I haven't posted back in a few days!

    Lucky213: I was doing fine the first few days. Now I am getting very antsy!!! I have hit of miss cramps, twinges, extra bathroom breaks, etc. Some days I am like oh gosh it has to be and the next second I am wondering if they are pre AF symptoms or me making things up!!!! I feel like I can't get enough sleep. I was really watching what I ate and exercising and have really backed off too. I don't want to jeopardize anything!!! That's very cool that is falls on the same day for us. I think you should plan to be going pregnant! ;)

    highlyfavored: I am glad to hear I am not the only one who is gun shy about getting on the treadmill! I also often think, if we didn't do IUI would I be like this? Wondering what I should and shouldn't be doing and feeling every little thing! I am also not into acupuncture. I haven't do it but it just doesn't seem like it is something I would enjoy! I have been reading the posts but it's hard to post back on my phone. I was cramping and the day I came on here I read many others having cramping too and voicing that it was normal! I was very thankful for that! Thank you for the baby dust! :)

    Sweettheartt: Congratulations on your first IUI! You are doing back to back IUIs huh? We only did one per our doctor. That is great that you are doing acupuncture and know it has worked for others. I wish you the best of luck!!!

    Here is part of my blog I posted today:
    Pre-pregnancy symptoms or not?! I have NO idea! Sometimes I feel like I am going to the bathroom more, sometimes I feel little twinges or have cramps, sometimes all I want to do is sleep, sometimes I am more emotional, I think my boobs are getting bigger but they aren't much more sensitive, etc. but like my husband said, I am way more aware and sensitive to these things. It has been 4 days since our insemination and I thought I was going to do very well with the waiting game.... I can officially say it's getting harder now! I just want to know! :)

    Hi All
    Feel like I've been trying to ignore this wait. These middle/end days aren't fun. Today marks 9dpiui. I have virtually no symptoms except maybe upset stomach from the prenatals I think. Makes me nervous...

    Hope you're all doing well and hanging in there!
  • SweetthearttSweettheartt Posts: 373
    I so can relate. I will be on a cruise ship when I test. Either I will be thrilled or miserable. My breasts have become so swollen. I am 8 days past IUI. But frankly, that can happen when I am PMSing too. No real symptoms except all that cramping from the trigger shot. This is my first IUI and I just want to be one and done.
  • nblondheimnblondheim Posts: 85
    Lucky213 and Sweettheartt I feel the same way. Others talk about all these obvious symptioms and I don't feel like I have a ton if any at all. Sometimes, like you said, I am wondering if they are just pms symptoms!!!! But we are all unique and different and our bodies handle everything differently. I am very hopeful! I wish all of us the best of luck! Hang in there!!!

    how are you all doing? has anyone tested yet? i don't have the nerve to do it...
  • nblondheimnblondheim Posts: 85
    I'm doing good! I haven't tested at all. I go tomorrow afternoon for my blood test!
  • a_walton2a_walton2 Posts: 236

  • Lucky213Lucky213 Posts: 18
    Nblondheim-good luck!!! let us know how it goes!!!
  • nblondheimnblondheim Posts: 85
    Thank you very much! I will!!!!
  • nblondheimnblondheim Posts: 85
    It was quite a day with them refusing to call me with the results of my test. After some pushing, I was able to talk to a nurse who informed me that...

    I'M PREGNANT!!!

    I am soooo very excited and truly feels very surreal right now!

    Thank you to each and every one of you for the sticky baby dust, well wishes, thoughts, prayers, and advice! It is appreciated more than I can put into words!
