Hello girls. I am new to this site/forum. it is hard to find a place that you can chat with other women who are going through the same thing as you and understands. Hopefully this is the place I should be. Here is a little intro.

My name is Nicole, but go by Colee, married to DH 3 yrs this june, I have a DD from a previous relationship who is 10 and is my all natural baby. DH and I tried for 12 months before we found out we have infertility issues, 3 months (total of 15 months) we did 50mg of clomid and used donor sperm/iui and acheieved pregnancy, which I had given birth to a wonderful and happy baby boy in 06, he is now 2. We started ttc for baby #3 since Sept of 06 naturally with no success, I consulted an OBGYN in May of 07 whom put me on clomid again, we tried for 4 months then started getting into iui's, our first was set for Oct, but fed ex put our specimen on the wrong plane and sent it to another state, so that was out. Nov. we tried again, this time the specimen showed, but the iui failed, I don't think my follies were mature enough, Dec. we tried again and I just knew that it didn't work, sure enough, no luck. I decided for my own emotional being that I couldn't do it anymore and wanted to wait until the end of 08 to the beginning of 09, but I got bit by the baby bug (as well as dh) we sought a new dr, one who actually does this stuff for a living, and all things went fast and here I sit with 4 days left to my 1 ww and I am confused as ever. One min I feel pregnant, the next I feel AF is on her way. So I am lost and confused and i do hope to make new friends who understand what its like.

Thank you and look forward to getting to know you all.

Colee

p/s how do I do my siggy?

Welcome sweetheart. I am an old school IUI grad who got pregnant with a combo of injectables, HCG trigger and IUI. That was my sweet Kaiya who came to use after 5 years!!! We then got pregnant on our own with Cassie I am now pregnant again but we are not sure what is going to happen since we have a bad ultrasound.... BUT - I am glad you are here - there are a lot of sweet ladies that are going through the same thing you are.

We never used doner sperm, I cannot imagine how furious I would be at Fed Ex that shipment was not there.... WOW> I am so sorry you are in your 1 ww.... I swear those last days counting down - you feel like a lunatic! Are you planning on doing a beta or are you going to use an HPT? Also - did you use an HCG trigger shot for ovulation? What symptoms are you feeling?

As far as siggy's = you can use a website like photobucket to put your pics on and then add them to a signature you create - if you go to my SK (I think) you can use the "edit signature" feature and you can start playing around from there. There are also graphics links on she knows that can get you to the experts and they can even make a siggy for you!
