I wonder if they are just tiny contractions? Just from stimulation of any kind?

Hi girls! Wow, you've been chatty today! As for me, I'm on cd 7...gee, I forgot for a second...all of the days are pretty much the same for me;) I hope that I O this cycle but I'm TRYING not to get my hopes up. I actually feel okay on the clomid so far...I've just been having trouble sleeping and night sweats but other than that A-OK. Last night it hit me how long that we have been TTC! I can't believe it...I never would have thought that it would be so difficult to conceive. I remember when I used to make my "then" boyfriend wear a condom even though I was on the pill because I was afraid of getting preggos...What a joke! Becca, I hope you're not getting sicky-poo! Its so hard to keep up your bd schedule when you're sick...plus its such a turn off to bd with someone who is sick! Staci, if your temp goes up tomorrow then you have to find a test and take one! I don't care if you have to drive to Toronto to take one of mine! If your temp goes down or af shows up then you are off the hook:)hehe.

LOL, Tonia, we'll keep it for you, PROMISE!!! :-) Staci, I'm doing ok, I just don't feel exactly "right". It's hard to describe. I also hope I'm not getting sick. I'll have to take some extra vitamins tonight, just incase.

Tonia, don't worry, I won't start a new thread...this has to be your lucky 13!! I can't wait for you to test...I'm so excited! I'm with Staci, this thread desperately needs some good news. Oh, and Becca, it also annoys me when people come in here rubbing their BFP in out faces without actually being a part of our "club". And its a darn cool club too!

Angela, you crack me up!!! Staci, if you want, you can stop in PA and pick up one of my tests. (I think it might be closer - LOL!)

Oh Becca! You're so smart! That's a great idea! See...Staci, you don't even have that far to drive anymore :) HAHAHA...geez, I'm even making myself LOL here!

YOu all are nuts! Wish i could just hop on over and poas at your house! If my temp goes up more tomorrow i will make sure to stop while i'm in town to get one. The store in our town must be getting robbed! it's such a little town yet they are always out of hpt's. i think there is someone else here who is a poas-aholic! Tonia you have my promise also, no new thread until after 12diui! Tonia, that's what i thought to, my uterus is contracting, getting ready for AF. It did it like crazy yesterday and hasnt' today, yet. Becca i bet that's what your twitching is too, except it's doing it because of hormones or something? and yes, go home take lots of vitamins(especially C) and rest! i hope you feel better soon!

Hi! DH talked to the lab again and the doctor was in surgery and said he would call him back when he was done but it may be after 5pm CST. He better call back or I'm going to have to go beat him up!!! Just kidding! :) I really hope his results are better. He's worried that something is going to be wrong and he's going to have to have surgery or something drastic - I told him that I doubt it is something that bad. I hope I'm right.

wow....... another day with many posts to catch up on - just when i thought i was doing good trying to keep everyone straight, i'm confused ;) angela, thanks for the site you have - it feels good to have a face to put w/ the name.... becca -its Daina (like Dana but w/ an i) - thanks for asking... just made my appt. for thursday to go and see my doc for follicle monitoring and to decide what we're doing as far as the iui... i just looked up my cycle on the ovulation calculator and it says that i start being a bit fertile today and most likely will ovulate around the 21st?? so we're going to hopefully start bd'ing tonight and as often as we can until this this cycle is over... i need to really figure out what we're going to do as far as the iui- not sure why i'm having such a problem with deciding... i guess i feel like i've jumped into the clomid when i don't necessarily need it yet, so i'm a little leary about getting so aggressive this soon?? does that make sense?? i'm just hoping that the effects of the clomid start to wear off soon - i'm realizing that i'm not sleeping at night which i guess is a side effect and having very HOT nights :( doesn't help that its a million degrees out.... off to drag my ds out in this weather to run some errands and pick up some OPK's...

Anna, grrr, can't believe there is yet another delay in finding out the results! What does dh think about doing an iui? Daina, yayyy, it's bding time! How old is your ds? Mine is 3. He's wanting to go outside soo bad, but it's soo hot! You can't hardly breath. Trying to get him to understand that we will go out when it cools off later this evening, poor guy! Hey i have a little trick to help you get back to sleep after waking up witha hot flash. Go get a wet wash cloth, turn the fan on low and wipe your self down with the cloth, it cools you off quick and you can get right back to sleep!

Hey girls - you all are very sweet also! It's a good distraction for me NOT to think about what's going on or about to happen...I'd rather look at the positive, you know? Would you believe that my RE's office phone just rings and rings all day today?! The one time that I really truly need someone to pick up and they didn't put their answering service on all day! I'm so p__sed right now. I have no idea if anything has been scheduled or for when. I've decided I'm marching straight to her office tomorrow morning bright and early. Oh well. Anyway...Staci, I had MAJOR af cramping the night before I got my bfp....SO, it's not necessarily always the witch coming! I so hope this is the case with you! Becca- I hope you feel better by tomorrow. Is it possibly a summer cold? We have hot weather too and I think sometimes running in and out from the heat and air conditioning it's easy to get sick. Take it easy and drink lots of water. Daina - I soooo know how you feel about the whole "aggressive" approach. That's how I felt when my RE mentioned doing injectibles and thinking about IVF after the clomid and iuis didn't work. I was like, "Whoa! Is this really neccessary? Is it suppose to be this much work?! Am I really at this point?!" It's so scary to start having to take the meds, do the procedures...in the back of your mind you're just thinking, "is this normal? Why does everyone else get to do it naturally"...BUT, it is normal - some us just need a "little help"...it's just important that you are comfortable with that decision. I wasn't ready to go further...but, maybe next time I will be. Don't let your dr. force you to do any procedure if you're not ready. The iui isn't so bad, but I totally understand your apprehension. How old are you? Sometimes I think that makes a difference in how your dr. approaches treatment. In my case, (no laughing girls since I KNOW you're all younger!) but I am 34 so my dr. knows that I'm in somewhat in a "hurry". Tick tock! Anna- fingers crossed that the results are good!

Bing, I'm going to preface this by saying that I am sooo sorry for what you are going through...but I LOVE having you on this thread!

Bing I can't believe that you haven't gotten a call and that they don't have an answering service or machine! I hate that you are having to wait! Good for you, I would be going in to give them a peice of my mind. I mean this is important stuff! Well, guys i know you keep saying that i could still have a chance, but when your cervix starts to open I think that chance is over:( unless any of you know if you can still be pg and your cervix open a bit then maybe close later?(i know it's a little far fetched huh?)it's also so hard to tell since mine always seems open. Man this thread is filling up quickly!
