Talking Anyone want to try naturally this month?!

I'm done with drugs, so done with ivf, iou oops! I mean iui I just want to have sex with my man and let it happen naturally. The way it used to be, sex is way better than ivf..... I know its a long shot but we can have fun doing it. The cycle after cycle really got to me I hardly ever took a break 24 in a row.

So here I am waiting for a positive opk and out of the starting gate we go.....

Need some company anyone want to join me this month...

I'm with you!!! We decided not to do IUI this month, for many reasons. It is emotionally taxing on both of us, physically hard on me, and not to mention the financial part. We'll be baby dancing tonight. I got my Positive OPK this morning!!! Goodluck to you guys!

gingerj that what I like to hear it can happen naturally. Want to share your secret did you bd the once you got the positive opk or up until.

So happy you are how are you feeling, what were your symptoms.

I'm so used to being micro-managed by re who don't have all the answers but try their best to fit me in a protocol

I am weaning my son he is down to one feeding a day and I'm waiting to catch the first EGG this month. I ovulate on my own but need progesterone support prometrium works for me.

I know what you mean about the financial, I'm ashamed of all the moola I put in my re's pockets. I think I may have financed a trip or two to the carribean. Hee!Hee!

What day did you ovulate in your cycle?

I sure do hope its your month my re once said sometime when your body selects the egg it could be golden I'm banking on that I would love to say it happened naturally..LOL

I'm done with all the wth (what the heck)meetings on why it did'nt happen and its time for more ivf. Lets get real here it can't work for everyone.

Have a good time today and 2nite trying.

Well, we bd the night of my +opk and 2 nights later. Funny thing is we wanted to the next night following my +opk but my daughter was sick and kept me up all night, I thought I was getting a stomach virus and dh had a stiff neck! We just said what the heck and were planning on ttc next month, thinking this cycle would be a flop! BFP 10/07/09!!!
We used Preseed both times though as I did with my first pregnancy; I went through Clomid and IUIs and decided to take a break due to the emotional roller coaster we were going through. So technically, I guess we got pg naturally the first time as well because we were on our break!!

I always hate the people who say just relax and it will happen as they have no idea what its like to go through IF.

I'll pray for you!!!
GOOD LUCK!
