Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey Kerri, I have been thinking about your I just haven't felt like coming to the forum so I have been staying to myself but if you ever need me just email me at kris dot neely at march dot af dot mil. I am doing much better I have been real sick and down and depress. I am currently on cd 29 but I just started doing my temp again on cd 27 so I am not real sure when I will get AF but I am ready to try one last year I guess. Talk to you soon and I miss you.

Hey Kerri - How are you doing? I haven't talk to you in about month so I was checking on you. Well here is my update I was kinda getting my hopes up but I knew it was too good to be true. My temp took a nose dive today from yesterday 98.39 to 97.94 so I know in a few days she will be here. I have a doctor's appointment next month on the 27th so we shall see she had wanted me to try on my own from April-July and then we would go from there. I will let you know if AF show up or not. I knew if she was coming it would be between 12-15. Take care and I will talk to you soon. Krissy68

Hey girlfriend I just wanted to let you know I'm still not pg. Today is cd1. Will keep you updated. How are you doing?

Hey Krissy, Sorry I haven't had a chance to get back to you sooner but things have been really busy running to the OB's office. The specialist I went to told me that I have unexplained infertility and basically can't see why I can't get pregnant. So he suggested two things to try IUI or Invitro. We tried IUI this time and that starts by taking 100mg of Clomid from Day 2 to 6 and then you go in for an internal ultrasound on Day 12 to see if you have started to ovulate and I had to go back a few days later on day 15 for another ultrasound and he told me that I didn't ovulate yet but to get a prescription for a shot called Ovidrel which triggers ovulation and then on Saturday June 13 I brought a sperm sample in and they take the good sperm out of the sample (called a sperm wash)and then inject them directly into the uterus and then I have to go for a blood test on June 26 on Friday to see if it worked or not. I sure hope so because the cost was about $360 for each time the procedure is done. If I would have went the Invitro way the cost is $1500.00 each time so its very expensive for both and we can basically only afford to try it once right now. I will keep you posted about that and let me know how you are making out. I really hope that something can be done so you can get pregnant too and if I hear of any other procedure that might help I will e-mail you ASAP!! If it turns out that I am pregnant I won't get very excited right away just because of the previous miscarriage. I'm really scared even to find out if I am pregnant because of that but I will definitely let you know on Friday! I will pray for both of us and hope that everything is going good for you!! Take care and talk to you soon!!

Hey Kerri - How are you doing? I am so excited for you and I can't wait to hear. Here is my update which really isn't much. I'm on cd14 and I got my first positive on the opk on cd 12 & 13 just like last cycle. The only thing I did do this time around is take the Vitex/B6 fertility recipe but I'm not real sure if it work or not. I didn't take it from Sun-tue I needed a break from taking all of them pills. I did bd yesterday and this morning and I might again tonight. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers and I am keeping everything cross. Krissy68

Hey Krissy, Well the procedure I had didn't work so there goes $360 out the window. I'm beginning to wonder if there is even hope. I try to stay positive but its getting harder and harder even though I keep hearing from specialists and OB's that nothing is wrong and can't figure out why I can't get pregnant again. The specialist told me that to try again in August because he is gone for the month of July. So it seems like another wasted cycle on the way. The only last thing that I thought I would try is maybe going to a fertility clinic. But I'm not sure yet but I pray for you all the time and hopefully I will get an e-mail from you with good news. The specialist also told me that I wasn't ovulating so I guess that doesn't help. I haven't tried alot of OPK kits because they are expensive and I haven't had a positive result with them so now its like what next? Anyhow I'll keep everything crossed too. Keep in touch and let me know what's up!! Kerri

KLM - I am so sorry that the procedure didn't work out. I understand about trying to stay positive and like you it is getting harder for me as well and I am really thinking about throwing in the towel because I just think I am too old. I get my ovulation kit from the dollar stores because I am not spending an arm and leg on them test I normally buy 5 test and I start testing on cd 10. Here is my update I am currently on cd29/16dpo and my temp went up from yesterday 98.13 to 98.31 and today was my official test date and it was negative I did go ahead and put on a panty liner just in case she decides to show up. I am not really trusting my temp today because I was up at 3am because one of the twins was throwing up all over the place so after cleaning up the mess and him I went back to sleep only to get work up at 5am by my 4 year going through the same thing. I only had 1 1/2 hours of sleep. I am having some cramping so I think she will be here sometime today. I will let you know. I do have a doctor appointment on July 27. I will keep you in my prayers talk to you soon. Krissy

KLM - I just wanted to let you know AF found me on Friday. How are you doing? Krissy68

Hey Krissy, Just hanging in there as well. I found that by tracking my cervical fluid is a better indicator of fertility than a basal. I noticed some on Monday and we bd that night so now again its the waiting game. Hope the kids are feeling better as my 3 year old is having sleeping issues as well and has kept me up since Sunday night off and on. Hopefully it will be short lived as its hard only getting 1 1/2hrs the last 4 nights. Sorry to hear a/f showed up again but I think after January I will be calling it quits. I was supposed to have an OB appointment this Friday but was cancelled and moved to July 27 as well. What a coincidence. Hopefully we will get some news. I will keep saying prayers for both of us and will keep you posted if a/f shows up this cycle. Take care and talk to you soon!! Kerri

Hey Kerri, I am trying to hang in there and I still have Faith but as you know it gets hardere and harder each month. I guess I will just have to wait it out and see what the gyn has to say and go from there. Take care and I will talk to you soon. Keeping fingers cross for you. Krissy
