Alas, I was not so fortunate this time. AF came to visit just as I was ready to test, so of course the test was negative.
This was my 4th try, and my last unmedicated. I think I am going to take a month off to relax and regroup (I need a short break), and start up again early in the new year with Clomid.
Good luck to the rest of you! I'll keep an eye on this board to see how many of you get good news too! Hopefully I'll be right there with you soon! :-)
Everything is going well here. Time flew last week bc of thanksgiving but the past few days have been dragging. This is be a loooong week. Doctor told me to test Saturday. I'll be happy to last until Thursday. Lol.
The 2ww is driving me crazy. I have no pregnancy symptoms. I think it may be too early to have symptoms anyway. I am using crinone qday. I know that all of you understand what I am going through, I just want to say I appreciate all of you and hope it works out for all of us. I am anxious, frustrated, and hopeful. Tina
I found a website that tells me that the blastocyst should implant 5-6 days after an iui. Which means I'm going to be looking for some implantation symptoms tomorrow or Tuesday. Hopefully I get something because all my feel good vibes about this cycle have disappeared, so I need something to get me back to positive thinking.
Congrats sibling4lala! I chose that donor for my first iui but tested (late) negative for the CMV (very disappointed). He's a cutie pie :) However, I just had my second iui today and starting my 2ww... it was torture the first time! This time the doc wanted to cancel because I had too many follicles 28, 26, 22, 18 on right side and several 15 and 14 on left side. I triggered anyway with a lesser dose and had the second iui today. Now the 2ww begins! This is my first time writing in... I'm wishing everyone well and looking forward to some BFP from the others! :)
ee, so sorry that AF showed up. Hopefully the break and clomid will help. Looking forward to seeing you back on the board with news of a BFP. Enjoy the holidays!
Tina, just to give you some reassurance, other than slightly sore breasts, I didn't have prego symptoms either. Baby dust to you!
sdlove, thank you. Yes, my donor sounds like he's very easy on the eyes. His baby pics are absolutely beautiful! I was sold once I saw them. Sorry that you can't use him because of the CMV. Good luck to you in your 2ww!
I haven't tested yet M. I am not supposed to test until Saturday. I am thinking I might last until Thursday but we will see. I'm working hard to convince myself to wait until at least Friday. I would hate to get a false positive so I really don't want to set myself up for that.
Well, I have kept myself from testing by not buying any tests...pretty simple theory. But tonight I had to run into the store so I caved and bought them. I know myself well enough to know I will be testing tomorrow morning...lol. Wish me luck:) I'm not supposed to test until Saturday so I know even if I test positive, I will not be sharing the news until Saturday in case it's wrong, but I just can't wait any longer.
Well, it was a BFN:( I'll test again Saturday just to be sure but it didn't even turn a little dark. Oh well, that was only my first try. Still several attempts to go. Best of luck to the rest of you ladies.
So sorry to hear austingurl. I was hoping Sibling's good luck was going to rub off on us all. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you get a miracle Saturday.
I'm sorry too, austingurl. I hoped that the rest of you would go sibling's way too. And it's not over until AF sings! ;-) I'll keep my fingers crossed for you as well, and, if not, I hope we get what we want on our next try!
1 more day austingirl and then u can test. My clinic said that pregnancy cannot be detected until 14days. How accurate is this i don't know. Baby dust to all. 6 more days to go. Tina.
sdlove- I thought maybe you were out this way because of your screen name. Would have been fun to find a local! LOL! Nice to meet you, if only online. ;-)
Good luck with your u/s, sibling! Still got my fingers crossed for the rest of you!
Well, my BFN wasn't a false negative. AF arrived today. Oh well, like I said before, it was only my first try. I'll probably have to skip any attempts in December because my work schedule is going to have me out of state for days 10-14 in my cycle so I will have to wait until Jan. Maybe the new year will bring good luck.
Best of luck to everyone else. And very excited you will get to hear a heartbeat soon sib:)
So sorry about the BFN austin:( Hopefully by January more of your donor's vials will be available. That sucks that you have to skip a cycle but like you said, maybe the new year will bring some good luck.
cc, will u be testing again? Hopefully 11dpo may have been a little early.
Got a BFN...its very frustrating. Onto IUI #5. Hopefully this will be a success that leads to a healthy child being born. I really need some encouragement.

How's everyone else doing? I've had a headache for the last 3 days and a fever 1DPO, but I"m starting to feel better now.

Congrats!!!! Sibling, I am so happy for you.
EEH sorry about AF. Hopefully the next time is the charm.
I am still waiting, I did a HPT (which was negative) but AF has not shown her face yet. So I am still waiting.
Austin, have you tested yet?
CC welcome to the fray.
I will check back in a few days.
Baby dust!

Hope everyone else is having good luck.

Time to look for a new donor since the one I have been using seems to be sold out.
cc, will u be testing again? Hopefully 11dpo may have been a little early.
I'm hoping I can get in try this cycle, right now it's a bit iffy. Gotta find a new donor.
