New TTC Thread

[lovinwdw]

Eilis - thanks for the warm welcome!!! We are going to be in WDW from 5/11 to 5/18...I can't wait! we booked the trip after we lost the baby. I needed the distraction!

Ellis-remember, no reading about retrieval. Just go in and do it. It's not bad, but reading about it makes it sound much worse than it is, and gives you way too many details. The hardest part of IVF (physically) is the progesterone injections. Ice before, heat after. If I can help with anything, let me know. I'm pretty positive on the whole experience!!

Sounds like a great distraction and a great set up for some magic!

Thanks so much! I did send you a PM . I am very excited and trying to stay positive but realistic as I can. I am so very lucky to be able to have this group to ask questions

Hi Ladies!!! I was a member of the old TTC thread back in 2007. I got tons of baby dust from everyone and we conceived our first DS! He was born on 10/30/07 and is the best kid ever!!!!

We started TTC #2 in September of 2009 (after our WDW trip). We conceived in November of 2009, but, unfortunately, that pregnancy ended in a loss and D&C on 1/14/10. I went to the dr for my 8 week appt and there was no HB and the baby stopped growing at 6 weeks.

I waited 10 looooong weeks for AF to finally appear (with the help of Provera) and AF lasted for 16 days!!! Yes!!!! 16 days!!!!! I ended up ovulating on CD14 of that cycle, we tried but only 2x because of the bleeding. I got a BFN this morning. I am ok with it, but sad at the same time. We will continue to try. It took 5 months with my first, 3 months with the pregnancy that we lost and hopefully even a shorter amount of time for my next pregnancy. We are going to WDW in May, so maybe we will get some Disney Magic and we will conceive while we're there.

I am looking forward to getting to know all of you ladies. Way back in 2007 the support was fantastic and from breezing through some of the pages, it seems like a lot of the same!

Baby Dust to All!!!

Hi Tracy! It's a long road but like Eilis said I pray your stay here is short.

Hey girls, DH gave me my trigger at 9:15 Thursday night, and then my IUI was at 9:15 am this morning (36 hours later).

The count 80 million with 30% motile so I guess about 24 million motile (all grade 3 or above -- forward swimmers)

The 2ww begins!!! (and my "girls" are already killing me. LOL)

How are my ttc friends doing today?

Tommorrow, is mine and Kenny's 10th anniversary as a couple.

Don't know what we'll do yet.

Then, it's just waiting till June 2nd....

My insurance is handling my appointment with the RE, so when it is "okayed" I'll be notified.

That's all for now. I am planning our fall trip now and planning to go back to school online.

Otherwise, just the same old-same old.

Happy 10 yr! My DH and I haven't celebrated our "together" anniversary for a couple years. We never "really" celebrated before, but we'd acknowledge it. This year I forgot.
