    @reednakita Omg no way! My fingers and toes and my hair is all crossed for a boy lol. But either will work. First, we need to get pregnant lol.

    I guess it sounds like she would do 3-7 as well based on a 27-28 day cycle. Still no word from the midwife. :/

    @reednakita She's ordering the Clomid for us now. No trigger shot though.

    @2HopefulMommies yayy! Glad you guys got it! And my cycle is 27/28 days also. And right me and my Wife really don't care as long as the baby is healthy. I will check in to see how your Wife is feeling on the Clomid. Femara has way less side affects that's why I chose that one. I'm ecstatic for you guys

    So Colleen determined that CD1 wasn't a strong enough CD1- so we are counting yesterday as CD1 - she will start Clomid on Saturday night. I'm stoked to get to try something new... It's almost brought back all of the excitement from our first try again. It's so easy to get discouraged. We didn't change up our plan too much for the first 3 attempts. Then we switched donors for #4. Went to the Midwife for #5. And now the Clomid along with 2 IUIs with the midwife. Really hoping this does it!

    @2HopefulMommies that's understandable. My doctor told me don't count the day of spotting as day 1. The day of full flow is day 1. All these years I counted the day of spotting lil. TTC this way has taught me ALOT. I cant wait for the good news this time. I feel you next month will be the first time we did medicated so it is new. I'm scared to do the trigger shot at home though. I hear it's not bad though. Hopefully the timing is to where my doctor can give me the shot that will make me feel better lol.

    She’s been fine! I’m pretty sure the night sweats she was having weren’t even related. She had a sinus infection and they seemed to have stopped shortly after she started feeling better.

    She has been testing low on the CB OPK but went straight to peak this morning so we are scheduled for the IUI tonight and tomorrow morning. The earlier surge has to be due to the Clomid. She’s 2 days early.

    @2HopefulMommies I was just about to say wow that's early. Yes I've heard of it making the surge earlier or later than usual. This will be you guys time! Everything sounds so good. Glad she's feeling better.

    Thanks! I’m excited that the Clomid has had some effect on her. Makes me think it might work. I’m sure that sounds silly, but if she had no side effects I wondered if it was working. But the earlier surge makes me feel better.

    I’m struggling with this TWW. It’s been 7 days since the first IUI and I’m dying for her to test already. Obviously we are still waiting since testing now would be pointless. Hopefully another 3 days and then we can start.

    @2HopefulMommies I was just coming on here to say almost time to test in a couple of days you beat me to it lol! I sure hope this is it and a baby will be on the way. I start testing around day 10 and continue until I get a positive. When will you guys test again?

    In my head, I wanted to wait until tomorrow which would be day 9. But I'm thinking maybe Friday or Saturday. Who knows.. lol. I get too excited.

    Are you getting excited for your upcoming cycle?

    @2HopefulMommies lol! Oh I understand the excitement trust me. Yes I'm so ready girl. My cycle was almost 2 weeks late this month! Which never happens. It's funny because I prayed and asked God to make sure the timing lines up perfectly so I can get pregnant and have our healthy baby our next try. Then my period didn't come lol. So I said hmm this will all work in my favor. So now this moves my cycle to the end of July instead of beginning and IUI probably like the 1st or 2nd of August. I'm doing medicated for the 1st time.

    Well it sounds like maybe late / different could be good for you. I'll definitely keep my fingers crossed!

    We tested again last night, but we have decided we are not going to tonight. We will wait until tomorrow morning or Saturday morning. The excitement is unreal.

    No worries. Try, try again. Eventually it will work out! This next cycle would be pretty perfect for the timing of telling our parents and the due date being in my birthday month. So although it's not exciting to have to try again, at least there are still positives for each new cycle.

    She is. Just finished it up 2 nights ago. We should be getting a positive (wishful thinking) when you're doing the insem.
