TTC 5/23

What's going on?

To tempt fate, or not to tempt fate.

It looks as though my wife and I will both be ovulating this week. We are using a KD. We have the option for both of us to inseminate, given the odds it is unlikely that either one of us would get a BFP, however, it could happen. At this point it feels like we should both be trying each month to keep things moving more quickly, but then again, it is tempting fate. I can't decide what to do. I am leaning very heavily towards only one of us inseminating, especially since this is the cycle following DWs HSG. DW wants both of us to try, I'll probably when though. ;-)

We are doing an insemination tomorrow with pressed so that some Nemos are up there waiting for the egg, and then we will insem again about 24 hours after ovulation. If this cycle doesn't work for DW she's is taking a break, and I will try at home fresh inseminations for about a year, until we save for the meds for IVF. I have the option of being monitored, and using a meds through our RE if I would like to so does Julie.

If DW got pregnant this cycle we could tell everyone at her family reunion, but the reality is that she probably won't, so we will have no news to share.

GL rikkiandjulie! Since both J and I have had trouble so far I can see us both trying in the same month, but the universe would probably laugh at us and we'd both get pregnant. lol

We're meeting with the RE June 10 so it will be really quiet for us until then. I'm just enjoying the time off from stabbing myself with needles

It would be your luck that you would both get pregnant!!
Everyone asks why we both don't try at the same time, and we don't want to be pregnant together. Just in case. We are both in our mid 30's and we don't need to be put on bed rest together or something! lol

As for us, I'm now 10dpiui. And trying to not do too much symptom searching... This progesterone is messing me up, so I don't want to read into things. Sore bbs that started a few days ago, moody for a while, tired, but that's about it. Either way, I'm trying to stay sane... lol

Are you doing betas? Or waiting a few more days for a HPT? Hoping this is your month!!!

We have decided to wait and do beta Friday, which we won't get the results till Monday.
We have a lot going on this weekend and I don't want to do a HPT Friday and get a negative. I want to have a good weekend, so I will wait. It will be the first time we've waiting for beta results. It's going to be weird!

[dannigirl]

Ahhhhhh!!!!!
I go for my beta tomorrow and I still haven't tested at home. That is a first and I am so surprised with myself.

Plus I found out if I go to the hospital in town rather than on base, I'll get my results the same day rather than waiting till Monday! Yay!
That's pretty exciting and nerve wracking all at the same time.

I want to test so bad. My bbs are killing me and all these things I didn't feel last time I took the progesterone. But I know I can't trust anything my body does right now. So I will continue to wait and we will see what happens tomorrow.
If for some reason we don't get our beta back tomorrow, then I will likely use the one and only hpt I have Saturday morning, or maybe Sunday.

Waiting sucks!
