Well, I guess I'm joining the party a little late. I had my second IUI on Oct 19. I'm 13 dpiui and tested negative yesterday. AF is probably due tomorrow and I don't feel like I have any pregnancy signs except somewhat higher than usual temps. Seemed to react even worse this month to Clomid--got super weepy, emotional and depressed in that first week. I'm hoping there might be an alternative.

I want to test again, but don't want to waste the money. Sometimes I manage to hold off testing becasue it gives me just one more day to fantasize that I might really be pregnant and what that would be like. Does anyone else do that? 15 months, though, so far and I've only ever gotten to see one line (except the ovulation tests).

Good luck to you all.

My stats:
Me: 37, almost 38, unexplained infertility
Husband: 40, normal counts, motility
TTC 15 months
July'09 IUI #1 BFN
Oct '09 IUI #2 ???

Nice big this morning!

I am so excited! Cautiously so, of course. Now we need prayers for baby in uterus, staying put and preferably only ONE!

We've been a little (pre)occupied this weekend with Halloween. My daughter was "the moon". We wrapped her in battery powered LED lights and she wore a chinese lantern.

Haven't taken another test (mostly because it was my last one) but I do FEEL pregnant. My beta is tomorrow. Can't wait to report the numbers!!!

Where is everyone on their schedule?

Sorry to be disappointing with all the good news, but IUI # 6 was a for me. On to IVF - we have our consultation on Wednesday.

I will say that I was really worried about making the decision about continuing with IUI or moving onto IVF because I really, really didn't want to do IVF. But I did finally stumble upon the thread on this site where they report all the details of their positive IUIs and I realized that with my husband's count and the number of IUIs that we had there was just pretty much no way. It helped me with that.

Good luck to everyone else - I hope you all have healthy pregnancies.

Tiegar - I would be suspicious! My 14dpiui was only 152.
Yours is on the higher end of the range for a singleton.

That being said, my daughter was a singleton and the count was over 500. My betas tripled in 42 hours. They were a little concerned and did a u/s well before heartbeat and there was only one sac. So - they vary wildly... I know that's no help, and it does make the wait for the us realllly long, doesn't it?

Tick Tock Tick Tock....

I don't think Friday will ever get here! I did POAS Tues am (which was 11 dpiui) and got a . I am gonna try and wait until Thurs to test again. That will be 13 dpiui. Beta is scheduled for Friday am.

DH is alittle discouraged/negative about the chances of getting a this month but he is in it for the long haul that's for sure.

We shall see!

Congrats again to everyone! Betas look good!!
