    The tripple posting seems to be happing a lot around here lately. After you post the board says something about there being a problem, but it goes ahead and puts up your post anyway. Congrats on having such a stress free cycle! Which donor did you use? I think we were looking at the same donors at one point. Congrats and good luck!

    Hi Aprilfoolz,

    I think cutting the stress is key. I just can't seem to avoid it. Ever since I started this process, I feel so neurotic. Which makes me stress out more. I'm not even pregnant, but I'm already so paranoid about everything I do in a day, and how it may be preventing me from getting pregnant. What I eat. How much I exercise. How stressful my job is. It drives me bonkers. Now, I'm on the, I can't drink tap water or drink caffeine, because it can cause a m/c. I'm convinced that if I would just stop reading into all this crap, I probally would get pregnant. I also just had my 4th IUI, and have two more days untill 2ww is over. AF due today though, and having cramps. Damn! Well can't give up now! Good Luck to us :)

    Hi again, well nogo :( I cannot believe we are going on our 5th IUI. I had PMS so bad, that we almost broke up. I think the stress is hitting us hard. I still feel pretty driven, and not defeated. So that's huge. I just have to press forward like everybody here. Speaking of, Aprilfoolz. Almost one week done ;) Keep us posted. Hazeleyes, hang in there. Just think ahead. Think about how awesome it will be to share your BFP! Yippee Skippee lolol. Also maybe get a different Dr. I'm also on Clomid 50m, and he said that they would increase the dose next round. Hopefully not, but I feel that he is pretty proactive. Which makes a difference. As for us, we have decided to switch donors :( waaa. Very hard decision for me, but I have heard that it may make a difference. Not only a new donor, but we decided to go with Fairfax. I will still check in periodicaly. Good luck girls!

    Hazeleyes - sometimes it's hard to give up control. I still have a hard time doing it. In God's time...... :) I know that's easier said that done.

    Infinity - My Dr. actually said that noone had ever asked her about switching donors, but we just had to. We just felt it was the right thing to do. I'm sure it is for the best you guys decided to do the same. Also, my wife and I were beginning to get very short with each other. We ended up laying off a month. It was hard at first, but well worth it. Things seem so relaxed now. :) TWW is absolutely killing me!! You're right, Inifinity, one week down!!! :) I want to test early, but will hold out until day AF is due.

    Wishing Baby Dust to All...... :)

    Thank you so much!! It's a great, yet very surreal.... :) It's great having such amazing support from everyone on here. :) It is actually my wife that is having our baby. :) She has been on Clomid every cycle. The two things that were different was the new donor and we had the hsg procedure. I really think it may have been the hsg. Oh I can't forget things at work have kinda calmed down and stress has dropped tremendously. I'm sure that had a lot to do with it, as well. :) Thank you so much. Keep me posted on your journey....you will be in my prayers! :) Oh - to answer your question, it was about 24 hours past the surge that we inseminated this time. Wishing you lots of baby dust.... :)

    Well ladies, I want to start by thanking you all for your support in this overwelming experience.. I went to the doctor's yesterday and I GOT A BFP!!!!!! "yes" finally our dream has come true . This was going to be our last try, we had ran out of money,we prayed and kept our faith.. I was upset this time around ,because the spem count was the lowest and i coulnt believe it. The nurse saw me upset an told me it only takes one dear, She was right it only took one. If you tell yourself If this baby is meant and if its Gods will its going to happen. I will keep praying for all you laies and keep you all posted...Don't loose the faith you will be in my prayers lots of baby dust. Thank you all Once again!!!! blowing Baby dust to all.

    Aprilfoolz & Hazeleyes thank you for your kind words of encouragment. I always look forward to reading your new posts. I keep asking for a sign, instead of obsessing over every little ping in my body. Well, today my DP was of visiting me at work like always. Then in walks two girls(clearly together) with their new baby. We were both in shock. We couldn't even compose ourselves. It was kind of embarrasing, because I think our jaws hit the floor. I'm sure they thought we were freaks.Or total biggots. I wanted to ask them so many questions, but we trying to keep it a surprise.We both took that as a good sign! Thanks again!
