I was previously married/divorced and was blessed with 4 daughters, now ages 20,18,16,14. After the divorce, I made the mistake of tubal ligation( which I regret more than anything else) my current husband had never been marriedbefore, nor had any kids. We long to have a child together... ivf is our only option. July 5 is my baseline appt. I am so scared that it wont work. We have been preparing for the past year. I hope to find someone here who has a similar case. I really could use some advice and encouragement right now.Tue, 28 Jun 2011 23:38:12 GMTLavondahttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI've been reading many posts from all of you ladies who have been trying for so long and I have nothing but tremendous respect for all of you ladies. It's so difficult to be where we are trying so hard to conceive. Today, I had my pregnancy test result after 1st time attempt of IVF. It's heartbreaking when you hear what you don't want to hear. I feel numb and a big time failure. What is wrong with me? What did I do wrong? Next month we will start our next procedure with our frozen embryos. What can I expect? Would anyone give me heads up about what's to come for me?Thu, 23 Jun 2011 16:57:04 GMTkim115http://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI am new to this forum and to infertility. My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant...nothing! He's had a reversal and I have a severe case of endometriosis. We will begin Menopur and Femarra this month followed by IUI. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm worried about not getting pregnant, esp with the high cost of the treatment. My doctor said that 30% of their clients get pregnant the first time. Help!Fri, 03 Jun 2011 12:28:23 GMTfringerhttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI haven't posted in awhile. My IUI did not work last month. The doctor wants us to take a month off. So we will try another IUI in August. I am keeping my fingers crossed that maybe it will work next time.Sat, 24 Jul 2010 22:11:21 GMTWhyMehttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI have just started fertility meds and tomorrow i start my shots. i have read some of the posts and can't believe so many women have gone through this over and over. I started going to a fertility doctor in January. Everytime i left after an appointment i just sat in my car and cried. Finally everything looked well enough to start the drugs. We should have our first IUI this month. It has been so disapointing i cant emagine going through several IUI's and IVF. You are stronger than i am. I am so excited but in the back of my mind i keep telling myself it may not work. I feel like a am alone where i live. everyone has kids and its so hard not having someone who understands.Mon, 12 Jul 2010 16:30:39 GMTshannonrosehttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI am also new to this. I am 28 and my husband is 33. I have gone through 3 months of follistim with trying naturally. Well it's just not working. So now (month 4) I decided to try the IUI. I had my IUI today, so I am hoping this will work. I can't understand why we can't get pregnant. We have been trying since Feb 2009! I tried clomid for a few months, then it just stopped working. Then I was on Famara for months, and that just stopped working so I finally started the shots. Has anyone had success with their first IUI??Sat, 12 Jun 2010 22:00:50 GMTWhyMehttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI would probably test everyday if I were you Snowie, but I'm really impatient! Stay positive, you are still very early.Mon, 07 Jun 2010 20:47:25 GMThereshopinghttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxWell i tested today BFN but i had some spotting today so we will see if it changes in 2 days from now.Sun, 06 Jun 2010 22:20:17 GMTSnowie1978http://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxhereshoping....Congrats on your IUI! I hope it goes well for you and you get your BFP. There are several of us in cycle right now so you are not alone. Please join us on the "general discussion" panel. It's where we all seem to turn up. Best of luck to you!Sun, 06 Jun 2010 22:17:45 GMTWannaBeAMommyhttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxGood luck Snowie! How long are you going to wait to test?Sun, 06 Jun 2010 20:34:10 GMThereshopinghttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxhereshoping- I am also on the 2ww. I am currently 10DPO after my first month of clomid. Good luck to both of us!Sun, 06 Jun 2010 18:10:09 GMTSnowie1978http://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI had my IUI on Thursday. After all the testing I have been through, I thought the IUI would be painless, but I was surprised that it was little uncomfortable. I had one good follicle (around 20mm), but I was excited to see that there was a second on the other side that was 15.5mm, is that big enough to ovulate? The sono tech said it might be big enough. I go back on Thursday for a progesterone check. I started a progesterone supplement yesterday. My boobs are already sore, not sure if that is from the ovidrel shot or what. Is there anyone else currently in their 2ww along with me?Sun, 06 Jun 2010 17:01:13 GMThereshopinghttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxI do my Ovidrel shot tonight, I hope it isn't much different from the Follistim shot. They are doing the IUI tomorrow because they think I may ovulate on my own either today or tomorrow. Wish me luck!Wed, 02 Jun 2010 20:40:22 GMThereshopinghttp://forums.fertilitybydesign.com/Topic2930-10-1.aspxThis is my first post ever. I'm 30, my husband is 31, and we have unexplained infertility. We got pregnant on our 2nd month of trying and had a misscarriage at 7 weeks, that was over a year ago, and haven't had any success since. This is my first round of injectible medicine with an IUI. I have done 5 rounds of clomid in the past. I'm on CD9 and I've had 6 shots thus far, I go for my second ultrasound tomorrow. I'm nervous, hoping everything is progressing as it should, but I don't know where I should be at this point in my cycle. Anyone else in the same boat or have any advice?Mon, 31 May 2010 17:25:17 GMThereshoping
