Rojoe81, I'm doing great starting to get over the morning sickness =) Got to see the twins yesterday and man o man are they lil busy bodies they were moving around so much and both of them were sucking there thumbs =0. I did have a scare at 8 weeks I started bleeding and went to the hospital they said there was a small tear on the placenta of baby A but both babies were still healthy and strong the bleeding stopped the next day and everything was fine the dr. said I was doing too much and I needed to slow down =) oops it scared the crap out of me! My dr said that they can tell the sex of the babies when I am 16weeks so you should be able to find out shortly.i'm 12 weeks so i'll find out in about a month =)
badovinatzn-oh wow, i am sooo glad to hear that both babies are healthy and strong! that would have scared the crap out of me too!! You know, i have not had any morning sickness at all. How ever, i do get sick every now and then around 5ish after i get home from work but not too often though. That is soo cute that the babies were sucking their little thumbs :D. I remember mine had his/her little hands on its side on the last ultra sound that i had and when the doc. was performing the ultra sound on me he/she moved its hands to the back of his/her head, i thought it was so adorable. Even though I can't see much, it is just breath taking seeing my little baby. You know, i had forgotten that we were only 3 weeks apart! that is awsome :)..
Hey ladies, I am not pregnant. I never thought I'd be happy to say that. LOL!
Rojoe- I think you will be able to find out before 18 weeks. The week after I lost my baby, a co-worker who was due the same week as I was found out she was having a boy, so that was 16 weeks. I think they'll be able to tell you.
Badovinatzn- I saw your tummy on facebook...whoa! lol
Rojoe- Is your tummy getting big?
Buckman- Wow...trying again. Congrats and good luck.
Albassandra- Good luck, haven't you already the 2nd IUI? If so, how many days past IUI?
I am thinking of having another IUI this month or next month.
Hey smacie-Well, as long as you are happy that you are not we are happy too :D..
I do, i have a little baby bump but i have had the most horrable pain in my lower region like on my pubic bone :(. I almost went to the clinic this morning because it hurt to stand,walk,sit or do anything it just hurt real bad but i decided to wait until tomorrow. It seems to have gotten better though. It does not hurt as much now, i have been laying down aaaall day,literally. I have been doing nothing but watch movies on life time lol! I did a little bit of research on google and some ladies say that it's kind of normal. Has anybody else experience this?? those of you whom have had boys, have you all had pubic bone pain during your pregnancies?
Smacie-Buckets and Buckets of baby dust to you and goood luck :)

Hello everyone! it's been awhile..... No baby for us. Not this time. Well we had decided to only try 3 times this time around,(last time we did 8 iui's, 3 with hubby, 5 with donor.) so we have one more try....... So we will wait. This month is our son's birthday and baptism, so we don't want anything to stress us and interfere with his events, he is the boss you know!
Hello to all. I and my partner also have a child by 11349. He is almost a year and a half. I was pleased when I found this group. I so relate to the trials and triumphs you all have been through. I had read that someone had a rather large baby. I too had a 10.4 pounder. Has anyone else found they had larger babies by this donor? If any one is willing to share a picture I would be willing to do the same. I wish you all the best on your baby quests.
My fiance is 5' 8" and looks a little mexican (140 pounds). He is actually native american, but his half brother always joked that the pool man was his "REAL" father.
He has thick curly black (dark brown) hair and I have blue eyes, so this donor could easily work.
I have been through so much at this point that I just want GOOD sperm. He could be 120 pounds and 6'7" tall right now and I really wouldn't care!
Well! Hello everybody. I'm getting caught up. Another baby boy??? WOW! Hi suntea73. If you have registered on the sibiling registry my email is on there. I'd love to see a pic of your little boy. Please shoot me an email.
albassandra- I will saying prayers for you that the 3rd time is a charm.
Smacie- I'm really sorry to hear that. I'm going to add my 2 cents - hopefully you are ok with that. It took me 4 IUI's...and if I didn't get it this time, we had another plan. Our dr suggested doing a laparoscopy - b/c i could've had 'silent' endometriosis - only visible with that surgery. Or i could've had polyps - again, visible with the surgery. However, i DID get a BFP last week..and this is what i did my 4th time around: 1. acupuncture once a week for two months 2. acupressure - everyday for a month (massaging pressure points for fertility on my feet) 3. took Crinone - a 'natural' suppository every morning 4. took femara 5. took the Ovidrel shot 6. exercised for stress reduction
so...not sure WHAT did it actually this time, but that's what i did. Good luck to you. I'll be thinking about you....
Hi everyone... my partner and I are in the last couple of stages in the donor selecting process, and we are pretty much set on donor 11349. Hopefully we will be doing our first IUI sometime this month. I want to thank Kim for sharing with me, but I would also love to hear about the other children born by using this donor. I have seen Kim's beautiful baby girl, and I am interested in seeing the resemblance in the boys. Would the other families mind sharing a picture or two of the boys with me pretty please? :)
Well, donor 11349 was a popular choice amongst us ladies! He's got a million boys (including mine in Heaven and one little girl. Hopefully, I'll be adding to this soon. Dear God, please be kind to me. It's been a long road.
shugarrashed-did you get a chance to purchase vials before he became unavailable to the public? Did you have an IUI? How did it turn out?
I have read the entire post, all 15 pages! I'm so glad you didn't give up. It's been a long road for you but you will be blessed with another baby again. Keep trying!
May I ask you why you haven't considered IVF yet? From what I have read, the success rates for IVF seems higher than IUIs.
I am not using donor 11349. Reading the posts are helpful for me in preparing for my upcoming IUI (first). I find so many strong women like yourself, UALTIGGER and others who endure the physical pain and emotionally draining process.
Thank you, Hayley! I hadn't considered IVF in the past because of the cost. My insurance only pays for office visits and diagnostics. I have found a program that is $6,150 and is basically a 2 for 1 type of deal...so we'll see. I believe something will happen for me soon.
I had a baby girld using this donor. She was born 8/9/09 @ 9:53am and weighed 7.9oz and was 21' long. She is healthy. If you want to contact me, email me at mlezama14@yahoo.com

Wow! another boy! I guess that makes six boys and I have the only little girl still!
It sounds like all the boys were large!
My fiance is 5' 8" and looks a little mexican (140 pounds). He is actually native american, but his half brother always joked that the pool man was his "REAL" father.

Thanks in advance to all for your help.

Buckman- WOW,you have the only girl!!! I hope on my second time around I get a girl.
