IUI: Queries & suggestions!

luckyme,
yes dear, i want the hug:kiss..

hmmm.. pls take a break and get back when you are upto it, cos seeing a fertility specialist is a very stressful process by itself.. i have seen examples in my sis, and a close friend.. hence i am in two minds in this aspect..with a full time job me and dh may have trouble taking tht kind of time out...

have come across a lot of articles abt accupuncture and the herbal tea/drinks.. not been to one thougth.. LPD is luteal phase defect? where the post ovulation phase is lesser than 14 days?.. well i am not an expert, but given the iron deficiency issue i think i see a connection there.. pls take your time and do research and identify a good fertility specialist before taking the plunge.

why are we in the 70%.. same question haunts me day and night.something happened at work today - a colleague of mine called up, and she was like on a weeks leave.. was asking her if all is well, and she says ya, i am expecting my second child, i am 3 months pregnant.. u know 4 months back we were jus talking and she was telling me that she is planning for the second baby.. and wham! just a matter of a month for her.. here i am , same age as hers, trying for 2 years, for my FIRST KID .. going thru so much. the whole irony was too much.
how different am i than her? what is my mistake? i dont know.. it just hurts a lot,
but i think may be there is some purpose to all this suffering..
lets keep moving on!..

HI Il's
Today is my 9th day after IUI and I am having on and off cramps for past 2 days. !st i thought it was just a gas attack but its gas and cramps boths. Also for past 3 days I am feeling a wet feeling in my vagina.
Ladies what are these symptoms? I am little worried and nervous. Usually I have gastric attak before periods but that is 13-15 days after the ovulation.
can any 1 tell what these symptoms are indicating?
Thanks
Baby dust to all

 

Hi,
We r in the process of shifting from jammu to delhi.So its kind of break from the medical front.I will go to my parents house for a month once i return will start with ivf probably from aug.
Yeah i always concider that we r lucky to have a very sensitive & sincere hubby is a blessing in disguise.

Hi,
7.2 level of hemoglobin is seriously anemic condition.With such levels ur body has very less metabolic rate.U get tired fast,hairfall,pale skin and nails etc.People get anemic either when their body is unable to absorb the iron from the food they have or they r not taking required iron content food in their diet.
Anemia is less hemoglobin in blood.Hemoglobin is the red blood cell that carry oxygen to the brain. the brain is the main organ that controls the release of hormones in our body. when a peson is anemic the functioning of the brain stunts there by other organs dont respond or produce the desired results.
So i advise u to boost up ur hemoglobin levels,before u go for fertility related issues.
Hemoglobin can be improved by eating leafy veg(spinach is best source of iron),fruits like pomegranate,mosambi's,mangoes r good to improve ur HB levels.Besides these u need to a consult a doc who might advise to take some hormonal test with low HB levels,
If u have any ayurvedic doc in mind its better, as ayurved has good medicines to improve HB.Don't just take iron tabs without doc's prescription they might not be safe at times.
Wishing u all the very best.

Hi,
Thanks for ur comments,yeah 8 yrs is very long time.... at times i feel i have got used to of not having any responsibilities of kids etc :rotfl. If suddenly one day i discover that i am pregnant i am sure to go mad :rotfl:rotfl.
Relatives!! yeah there r a big pain when they keep discussing our helpless as a topic of entertainment.well i always said who ever questioned me that i am surely going to call them for help post delivery with a big smile:biglaugh.Now i am all grown up that level dear,i am no more affected by their questions.
You have started ur medication at right time swati, i had started almost after 3yrs of marriage and due to my husbands frequent postings the treatment always got disturbed.Dont worry u will surely have ur dreams come true.

In any case the doc only tries for abt 6 iui on a person.In iui,the timing of inducing the sperms is very crucial.Be positive at this juncture, things happen when u least expect them thats why they r called 'miracle'.

Enjoy ur sis marriage have a blast.Be normal with relatives u dont have to justify urself or ur deeds,be ur self have a positive attitude it makes u feel strong and young:thumbsup

Hi Swati

So sorry to hear about your af. I was hoping that this would be your month since everything was so good. I can feel your pain.
Seeing all this i feel things will happen only when its timed to happen.Especially for those who have all tests normal(unexplained fertility),i think iui does not make much difference. it will happen when our time comes whether we do iui or ic,does not make any difference. This is what comes to my mind now.Thats why pregnancy is called a miracle i guess.But why dosent god tell us WHEN it wil happen so that we can stop stressing ourselves now!
ya it hurts when we see others getting prego so fast and we still here even when we started trying long before them. It seems such a big thing for us while for others its so natural and easy.
maybe everything is for some good reason.

Its just a matter of time. Your time will come too.
Oh your sisters wedding is there? Your real sis? where is the wedding? ya relatives always question. But dont bother.Have fun!Have a nice time..

Baby luck to all fellow ttcs!!
