That felt good.
As I'm sure you can guess, I am expecting medicated BFN 3 and overall BFN 9 (since restarting TTC).
I stopped testing again (on day 10), because I am tired of seeing negatives. I know 10DPO is "early" but I've always shown a BFP early and I always have known when I'm pregnant. I'm not feeling it. Today is 11DPO.
The beta is Thursday (and hopefully I will start before them so they can check for cysts then, too). Then we'll be starting our penultimate cycle (unless it is a BFP of course). Barring a clinic change of plans, we're doing at most 2 IUIs and that's it. Our clinic recommends 3 TI, 2 IUI and then IVF. I'm not open to IVF at this point (though I'm not counting it out in the future).
Over the next 7 weeks hub and I are eating right and working out. Our hope is dropping a few pounds, shedding some stress and an IUI or 2 will give us a sibling for bub. If not..
Well we'll have ONE very spoiled little boy.

In the mean time, anyone actually have success stories from 11DPO negatives (with no symptoms) or last/ second to last cycle successes?
*Yes, he's already been to a Red Sox game, and will be going to the Rockies game and tour on our Colorado trip. Spoiled Child.
And it's good that I'm not angry
Well I need to get over
I'm not angry
It's dragging me under
I'm not angry

We got our BFP with the twins on our 3rd medicated IUI. I also did accupuncture that cycle. I have NO idea if that helped at all, as I am not really into hippy dippy alternative medicine. But I figured it couldn't hurt to try. I think I was 11 or 12 dpiui when I got my first faint positive.
ReplyDeleteI am thinking about trying acupuncture with my next cycle. I've done it a few times, but feel like a fraud- I'm not that hippy-ish.
DeleteIf nothing else, it is a time during the day that you are forced to fully relax - which is good for the body and the soul! You are the furthest thing from a fraud btw. I am really rooting for you too.
DeleteI don't think you have a spoiled child, I think your child has spoiled parents! ;) What a good boy to be able to handle those activities and make them enjoyable for everyone. Have you been to Denver before? I used to live there...loved it, great city!
ReplyDeleteI don't mean to ignore your pain and frustration with TTC. I'm sorry you are going through this.
DeleteI like this line of thinking so much better than mine! I'm going to stick to that! I haven't been to Denver before- we're excited. We are baseball travelers so all we ever know before booking is where the MLB team plays and when is game day and the tour. But looking into it now, seems like LOTS to do. Hiking!
