Newbie from NY here

Hello Everyone...

Got room for one more in here? My name is Nancy and I just turned 39. DH is 30 and we have been married for almost 4 yrs. We live about 45 min north of NYC. TTC #1 since 9/08 so this will be my 11th cycle

We tried the "just have lots of sex and it will happen approach" for the first 6 months and then decided that we needed to speed things up due to my age. Had a HSG in May and tubes and all internal parts looked

DH had an SA and swimmers were good too. Started seeing a RE in June. Had Day3 blood work in June and my levels were "normal". (I was so happy because I was afraid they would be bad b/c of my age but was pleasantly suprised)

Started using OPK the last couple of cycles and have found them very helpful to time our BDing or BMS (not sure which abb. you use on here) LOL

So this is where we are currently...Got

on 7/7/09 and current cycle was first on Clomid (100mg) I took it from CD3-7 and went for my first ultrasound on CD10 (Thursday) She found 3 follies all measuring around 14mm. Went for 2nd US yesterday in hopes that they would be big enough to trigger me and then do an IUI Sunday (today CD13) Well they weren't

The lead was only 16.5mm Going back for an US on Monday morning but neither DH nor I can take off work during the week to go all the way into NYC so doing an IUI now is out of the question this month

I am so disappointed. I know doing it the "natural way" is more fun but I was hoping for a little medical help this cycle. My only saving grace is that there are 3 follies growing instead of 1 so my chances of 1 of the

getting fertilized is increased I guess

Thanks for letting me vent and wishing everyone on here lots of BFP this month!!!

Hi Maura, Thanks for the welcome. I went yesterday for another US and the lead follie was 20mm and then there were two others - one 15 and one 16. I had a positive OPK yesterday but not today so I am pretty sure I ovulated. I had lots of pain in my lower left side and all three follicles were on the left side so that makes total sense. Now begins the 2WW -the worst part of the cycle. I am staying positive and hoping for my BFP this month!! I will keep you posted.

hi nancy and welcome!

i hope this is your month!! i'm sorry you were unable to get an IUI in there but as long as DH had a good SA hopefully your BMS will do the trick!

keep us posted. hope your 2ww goes fast!!

best wishes
