Well I am 15 dpo. I POAS on Monday 13 dpo and it was negative. I went this morning and took a blood test and results wont be back until 3:00. i will post when i get results. i am thinking it is negative because I have been getting AF cramping for the past 2 days. I am on progesterone so my period is delayed by that I am sure. We shall see. The party is not over until the fat lady signs and AF crashes the party.

I am good, thank you. I dont know if you saw, but we are able to use DH sperm. Wel they gave us a 99% chance anyway. so we are now saving for IVF with ICSI. How are you? What site did Poly find? I love this site. I am sorry you are having such a hard time. I know this is so very hard for us and it can put you into depression. I am thinking of you.
Kerry,
Hey girl! I see you are in your cycle!! Lots of sticky baby dust to you. I am praying this is for you! When is your test date? Most of the girls that I know that had an IUI, they came home and took it easy that day. Some got BFP and some BFN so I really dont know. Sorry. Take it easy. Praying that your embie is forming as we speak!!!

Henrietta - so sorry to hear about your BFN. How are you going, both emotionally and physically?
Kery - you must have done your IUI by now - how is it all going?
Miracle08 - that's great news regarding DH's sperm. Don't really know what site Polly went to unfortuately. I hope she is going well wherever she is.
As for me, have been enjoying a quiet holiday so far. Finally getting rid of these horrible cold sores that decided to appear in my final week of work.
Planning on seeing a movie and maybe getting a haircut tomorrow, as well as doing some cleaning around the house.
Will be seeing the IVF counsellor tomorrow just to discuss a few things...
Take care.

Hi Kery - thinking of you on your TWW - how are you going? Anxious or just ignoring it?
Henrietta and Miracle08 - how are things with you?
As for me, had a very interesting session with the counsellor. We talked about the physical elements of emotion and where it is kept in the body.
One fascinating thing was the fact that I feel physically that I have the world on my shoulders. To stop it, I need to put up an emotional wall/boundary so that I don't take on too much.
That realisation has made me feel so much better.
Also realising the grief over the fact the last IUI did not work. I don't think I have faced my fears about never falling pregnant until now.
Today I just organised things around the house, went out to lunch with a friend and saw my sister in the afternoon. A good day!

That is very true. Sometimes we seem to take on the worlds problems or sometimes we think our problems are really bigger than the are!!! I remember when we moved country gee I was so stressed. Finally I said to myself "just sit back and ride this one out!" I know it's tough but try and relax and start to enjoy life again (easier said than done). Thats why I took a five month break between the last cycle. I just needed to take a break from the iui stress. It sounds like you are feeling a bit better and thats great to hear
Yea I'm feeling a bit strange this cycle. I feel a bit ill, crampy and sometimes even feel a bit dizzy. I think the pregnyl I'm taking is giving me these effects. Nevermind I'll come right.

Sounds pretty good to me!! One thing the doctor did do before my iui was scan me to see if my follies had ruptured (only rupture if a egg inside). She could see at least one had and maybe another one. At my last iui he didn't scan to see. I didn't read to much into any of the side effects. Actually they were the same as the last cycle just crampy, sore boobs etc. I was on progesterone and hcg shots both times which also give those effects. One sign I did have was two days before I tested (16dp) I started to get morning sickness (at night) and feeling tired. But who knows when I was pregnant with my ds I had no signs at all!! My beta was 570.
Anyway what date are you testing? Sorry I have forgotten was the fertility problem with you or your dh?

Yay!! Yay!! Yay!! That's brilliant news!! I am so happy for you!
Hi Henrietta,
I have everything crossed for you that it works this time!
Hi Miracle,
Waiting for a new cycle, do you mean? Or are you also in the TWW?
As for me - I won't be doing anything much until August. We're chosen this date because I should feel on top of things by then (I'm currently seeing a natropath and the herbal remedies are working really well) and also our tax cheque should be back by then. Anyway, let's hope so.
We caught up with my SD/friend for dinner a couple of Sundays ago. It was great just to have a chat as friends, as well as telling him we will be moving to IVF soon.
We've been doing householdy things like organising to buy a new car and a new couch. I bought a family car - always with the hope that we will have a little girl or boy soon. I hope so.
Hope everyone is travelling well.
