It's early (I just had my beta test today), but I am currently pregnant with donor 13676.
Just wanted to see if anyone else is using 13676 and possibly also pregnant.
Thanks!

I found out officially today with the beta test but I did get a positive on the home pregnancy test yesterday but I wanted to be sure.
I only had one follicle.
And I asked my doctor about the AMH level and she said that it is a good indicator of quantity of eggs but not necessarily of quality. So you can have a low AMH and still get pregnant b/c even though the number of eggs is low, the few that you have could be of great quality. So she said not to panic about a low AMH.
I did use meds. I did Clomid 50 mg (days 5-9) and then an Ovidrel shot the day before the inseminations. And I did 2 consecutive inseminations.
I didn't do acupuncture but I did get a massage the night before this 3rd cycle and I do think it relaxed me a lot.
But mostly, I think switching the donors was the best idea. My original donor had a low sperm count after thawing so that made it difficult.
Anyway, I hope this helps!!!
Sending you lots of baby dust!

I honestly didn't feel anything.
Now I have slight twingy cramps but that's it. I'm also more tired than usual.
And xfile951, I hope you have the same luck too.
It would be really cool to be pregnant from the same donor at the same time.
Keep me posted.
Baby dust for you both!!!

My original donor was 12874. Out of the 5 vials that I used, 3 of them had under 15 million motile sperm after thawing. I am trying to get a refund but it is not easy. Not to mention all the money that I spent on shipping and then the lab work on my end.
And yes, I only had one follicle so it can happen with one follicle. Actually it's better b/c then you know that you can't have twins. Well, fraternal twins at least.
And thank you a_walton!
I hope it stays H and H!!!
Praying for baby dust and healthy pregnancies for everyone!
Kate
Any news yet?!?!
I hope that you get a BFP with 13676. It would be great to be on this journey together with the same donor.
And I think this is your first IUI so remember if it doesn't work it usually takes 3-4 tries. It happened on my 3rd try but only I believe because I switched to 13676.
Keep me posted!

Well it's a BFN. A little disappointing to say the least but I am going to keep positive and continue down this journey. I had an hsg and everything was working well. I guess I haven't had the combo. Last night I was searching all different methods to increase fertility including wearning socks all of the time, cutting out dairy, cutting out sugar, etc. I wish there was a sure fire method but if there were I don't think the journey and the final success of holding our children would be such a reward....but if you have any pointers :) !!!! Let me know. His count was great and I guess I am going start another round once I start this week. Talk with you soon.

I'm sorry to hear about you BFN but keep your hopes up. It took me 3 tries and it only worked on the 3rd try because I switched donors. And 13676 has great numbers.
My only advice would be to stay strong and know that it will happen. Also, I did get a massage the evening before the inseminations and I think that helped.
Truthfully, we can try and control the process as much as possible but at some point, it is out of our hands. We just have to trust that it will work.
Anyway, I hope this helps.
Please keep me posted. I would love us to be pregnant with 13676 together!
Prayers and baby dust!!!

how have you been? how's the baby? Keep in touch
Gina
I'm okay. I had my first bout of morning sickness last week and it was not fun. It has also been a bit of an emotional roller coaster.
I didn't realize how much pregnancy affects your hormones.
But ultimately I am happy that it worked. I had my first ultrasound last Friday and I got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat. That was amazing.
So I am trying to focus on the bright side!
How are you doing?

We are thinking about switching donors 2 iui have ended in BFN. Was just wanting to know what the counts are like for this donor?
Thanks
K&A
I'm sorry that it didn't work the second time around. I still really think that this is a strong donor. His counts were great for me too.
If you try him again, let me know.
I would love to know if my baby girl has any half siblings. Oh and yes, it's a girl. I don't know if I posted this already . . . I haven't been on the bulletin boards that much.
And akw0117, I highly recommend this donor. I switched to him after 2 IUIs ended in BFN and it worked on the first try with 13676.
Keep me posted if you use this donor and it works!
Best to all,
Kate
My name is Monica. Congratulations on your pregnancy with donor 13676. Hope you had a beautiful healthy baby. :) I used donor 12895 and had 2 miscarriages :( My OBGYN suggested I change donors. Im looking to use donor 13676 or donor 13699. Would you be willing to share a picture of your baby with me? I would love to see what your baby with donor 13676 looks like. I like the donors height and that he is blood type A+ like me. :) My email address is msalcedo5@yahoo.com. You can find me on FB too if you would like to first see who I am.
Take care, Hope all is well.
Thank you,
Monica Salcedo.
Thank you!
I will share a photo of my baby with you when she is born. I still have 2 weeks until my due date.
I liked his height and apparent good looks as well.
I will keep you posted!
