*Steph whispers that she saw Daniel...things are very...not tense so much as anxious and nervous..there aren't any words left...**whispers quieter...he's ready to be back (tomorrow?) and go forward with the move**...very nervous and unsure, but watching and waiting...nothing else to do but wait quietly and watch, put one foot in front of the other and get ready to go...*

God willing and the creeks don't rise, Cass. Thanks. Me too. Right now, I'm just scared to death.

Claire ~ Yep. Even though they numbed me pretty good, at one point I could feel the blood squirting onto my tongue. Ugh. I just cried.
Yeah, I'm pretty thankful, I will have that valium and know to take the motrin beforehand. I'm still nervous though, but I'm sure the drugs will not me silly. Expect some crunked dialing from me!

Hi Ladies,
I haven't been keeping up with these boards as well as I used to, but I am looking for some advice/insights... we have decided to do IUI with injections (follistim - 75IU) this month (day one is today). We have done clomid in the past, so this is a little step hopefully in the right direction. Has anybody here done this? Any advice/good websites/etc.? My dr. said it is about a 30% success rate each cycle, and about 25% chance of multiples (1% 3+). We know we will not do selective reduction, so I am a little nervous that it may affect us with not getting pregnant since I know they don't allow so many eggs to mature... A little dissapointed that we are going through this again, but everything I have read seems like this has a good chance of helping... Thanks ladies! (life seems to go full circle - this is the forum that I started on with AJ two years ago...  )

Missy - I know that Heidi did injectibles (gonal f with the hcg trigger), but she didn't do IUI with that. She might have some info or insight for you. Hopefully, the follistim will do the trick for you. Next cycle, I will do clomid again. If that fails, I will probably do follistim/iui as well. Please keep us posted.

Hi Missy-Rebecca is right on with what we did. It took 2 cycles for me with the injectables and timed BD. We upped my dose on the second cycle to get more follies. I think I have it on my home page with my dosages, E2 levels and follies. I actually had several follies mature and on the brink. They warned me about multiples as well before I did the trigger shot. They actually thought when I did get pg we had more than one because my betas were really high. However just one. So I wouldn't let it scare you. I went for it because it had taken so long to get pg that we figured the more follies the better the chance to catch at least 1. My RE likes to see 3 good follies when using the injectables to make it worth it. Good luck and if you have any questions feel free to PM as well.

Hi everyone. Yeah, it's getting close.
 But I saw the pictures of the house my dad took when he was there a few weeks ago, so I know what the house looks like. We quite literally have to go to the grocery store and the place is ready to live in. Daddy said 'this goes nowhere beyond us', that he was going to give me three thousand dollars in cash to add to what I have saved, and that he wanted me to start paying the morgage in October. He laughed and said it would be domb for me to go down there and immediately give him his own money back. Which is cool -- but it tells me he's a little nervous about me being gone. Never been gone before, not for more than a handful of months. But he's excited too, giving me a bunch of info, streets, maps, places to eat, little tips.And...well...Daniel is home. Last night. The world is completely on its head, I have no idea what is coming in the future. I'm still quietly watching and taking things with a grain of salt. I'm too numb to invest a lot emotionally anyway, but I have to believe we'll somehow by the grace of God, stumble through this into some kind of decent life. I think the line we are taking is avoiding 'major therapy' and just getting through the next two weeks and taking off. We'll think again after we're gone. Maybe. I may never think again. That might work better. God I hope I can finally start to get some sleep.
