Welcome to the boards. The journey of TTC is an emotional roller coaster. DH and I have done a total of 3 IUIs spaced out with an early m/c and one cycle of IVF resulting in me now 26w pg with twins. We were on our own with fertility costs and for us, the IVF cycle was the easiest.
The IUIs felt like just a little help with vaguely increased chances of carrying a healthy baby to term. With the IVF cycle, we had a daily game plan with action to get a healthy baby. I even started counting day 1 of IVF as day 1 of being pg because we felt so at peace with our decision to move forward. I was actually off by a couple of days due to ER at CD 12 instead of 14. Even with one of the most aggressive protocols, I was a poor responder with 8 eggs retrieved, 5 eggs fertilized, and 3 eggs transfered (1 was early blastocist poor quality and was put in to increase the chance of 1 of the other eggs implanting). Even though I'm 30, my ovarian function was that of a 40 year old and we had less than a 1% chance of concieving and carrying to term on our own.
Hated the multiple shots a day with IVF, and don't like the multiple shots I have left to go this pg, but these babies are totally worth it. There are several ladies who have had great results and stories with IUI or IVF and the important thing is you feeling good about your decision and bringing home your baby. The support of this board was invaluable to me as I went through the process.
What protocol are you on? How are you feeling? How was your baseline u/s? Good luck!View Thread

Fortunately I'm not on bed rest, just tons of activity restrictions. While I am getting sick of my recliner, no dishes and laundry is kinda nice. So far, so good for everything else. Just need to hold out another 11-13 weeks. I haven't done a blog, I don't think that too many would really be interested in what our day to day lives are and I probably wouldn't be consistant with it either.View Thread

The babies are still growing well, but we spent Monday at L&D with contractions and the start of dialation at 23w3d. Way too early. Everything is under control and I have even more restrictions and monitoring/shots/tests/etc. It will be completely worth it once the babies get here.
Have a good week!View Thread
