Hello all! This is the new TWW board. We need a new one after too many strings of BFN. Let's kick this off with positivity. We are in the midst of the TWW and I am going absolutely insane. I am questioning everything. My wife is like it feels different this time so I am hopeful. We had our first spotting and cramping after the IUI this time. So with that we are very hopeful that the body is even recognizing there was something that occurred. First time for those symptoms. I know they are normal symptoms but it is new for us. Hopefully it means a BFP for us on the 15th. No home pregnancy tests this time. Can't do it. So this board is new and exciting and will have exciting news for all of us.
Who is still in their TWW? And when do you all try again?

I will be part of the 2ww club starting Thursday, if all goes as planned! Wrapped up my 5 days on Femara and that went pretty smoothly, so now I wait and keep supporting you ladies.
Mrg, blowing baby dust your way! Keep us posted.

Livvy, so you decided to do the clinic again or are you doing it at home? I hope that your ICI has plenty of swimmers after the wash that will make it to the lovely egg and you will be another BFP. This new board will be the lucky board. I feel positives all around us!!
Elliejo, you're only a week away! I agree this new board was needed. Thanks!
We are looking into doing a HSG. Has anyone done this procedure? I'm wondering if it feels similar to an IUI.

Hopefully this is just the first of many!!!
I have been struggling the last few days. I have overanalyzed every symptom or non-symptom. I go back and forth wondering if Abby is pregnant or not. It is excruciating. I want to take a pregnancy test the day we go in for blood work so I know before I go to work and Abby says no. I can't force her to pee on a stick. It just sucks that she will find out before me and I have to be at work when we learn if we are. I hope this is it and the streak on this board can finally be BFP after BFP. And then we can start a pregnancy board. It is all just very hard. Feeling a bit down and out about this process today and need some support. We test on Monday. Hoping for good news.

My enforced break is over and I am back in the US after a very sad trip home. I'm ready for March to be here and to get into the TWW again.
Is anyone else in the TWW or about to be? I hope our new thread starts producing more positive results soon.
Congrats Mrg - here's to a happy and healthy pregnancy.
Had my 2nd u/s today. I am currently day 13 of my first Femera cycle and have 3 follicles that are measurable (15.5, 13, 12). I go back on Friday morning for another u/s. Looks like my perfect time may be over the weekend, which worries me because my doctor is not open...however, he said he would come in to do the iui if that is when the best time is. It makes me worry though, that something will change or go wrong with the timing. Also, we need to determine when to have the specimen delivered, as our doctor doesn't have cryo-storage available. (We are seeing an RE in a regular office setting, not a fertility clinic.) Trying to stay positive, but this whole week stresses me out...every month. Lots of trips to the office, lots of decisions to make, and lots of uncertainty. Drives me crazy!
Hope everyone else is doing well,
Rebecca
I am in the 2ww at the moment. 7dpo to be exact. No real symptoms, soo...
I am feeling very discouraged because a PA basically told me if it hasn't worked after 5 times, why am I wasting my money? (And then proceeded to try to sell me on IVF). What do you guys think? I mean, low-ish post-wash counts are partly to blame and so is my uterine lining thinning b/c of Clomid. Why do I feel broken?
Rebecca and Julie, glad to see you back:)

From what I hear no symptoms is good, at least it means you are not over analyzing every little twinge, tired feeling and sneeze... oh that would be ME by day 7 lol!
Rebecca, our RE is a kind of funny half way between a full clinic and just a Dr's office too, although they do at least have cryo storage as they deal with male infertility so when we are in the waiting room there are always all these mortified guys waiting around to be sent away to 'do their thing'. they are even more mortified looking when they come out and we are still sitting there, it does make us laugh even though it shouldn't!
Maybe if they have to make sure the timing is so exact due to delivery etc they could give you the trigger shot which will pinpoint the moment? I hate all the endless trips to our RE, it's not that far from where we live but it's location is somehow awkward (we are in NY so of course I have to make a fuss about crossing town!) and they ARE stressful, we all need to try to relax which is easier said than done.
How have you found Fermera? What's the reasoning behind them giving that rather than Clomid? I'm going to try clomid again this time, but will keep an open mind about the way forward.
Livvy - I just realized this message is getting super long and I need to step away for a bit to make a phone call, but I am about to give you a rant about them telling you to go for IVF!!! These people really annoy me!
