Susan- tomorrow is the day. I had my first positive OPK this morning. My temperature rise this morning is only from waking up about 4 times in the night- twice right before I took my temp.
So yep- tomorrow morning at 11 am. We have to drop the sample off at 8...so we'll have to burn 3 hours somehow. My Mom is coming over to watch Erin for me...so Steven and I will go to breakfast and burn some time doing something else.
I was wondering if today or tomorrow. I'll be thinking of you two. Hope you are able to enjoy each other on your morning 'date' with not a lot of stress.Get a good night's sleep.
So, we had the IUI this morning...I cramped more than last time and I'm still feeling a little bit off, but that's normal. Steven had 60 million sperm with 52% motility. They like to see 10 million motile sperm, so he had 6 times the amount. Last month, he had 96.4 million with 70% motility, but I'm pretty sure we did the IUI one day late last month.
Anyway, the waiting game begins!!
isn't that the truth Kim!
Thanks Kim and Emily.![]()
I ovulated yesterday-I had a temp hike this morning. Woo-hoo for timing it right! We also managed to BD last night, but I didn't get any enjoyment out of it. I was so swollen and my ovaries felt like they were going to burst. Hm. Maybe that is when I ovulated.
I meant to post yesterday that Steven told me to take a pamphlet on IVF before we left yesterday. They're hosting a class in July, and he told me to take it in case we have to go that route. We'll try a few more IUI's, but the fact that he wants us to be prepared shows me that he is willing to go that far if we have to in order to have another child. I was worried that he'd balk at the price of IVF and decide not to do it, but he kind of put those fears to rest yesterday.
I'm trying to think of things that I can do to keep my mind off of the 2ww! Maybe I should finally organize some of Erin's pictures...
Angela,
Great to hear of the large school of swimmers. Consistently maintaining good #s compared to where you started.
Is it the clomid that are making your ovaries so sore? Is it b/c of increased fluid or just a side effect (pain) from the med?
Sorry to hear you are so uncomfortable. I hope you find some relief soon. Are you allowed to take anything to ease the discomfort?
You two were on my mind all day yesterday. I peeked to see how it went, but only now able to comment.
It sounds like you guys have great timing for this month. You're in my thoughts!
