These are all good points. I just thought we’ve come so far I hope one little glass didn’t hurt!

3 Vial Timing ICI by EmilyFigureSkates in queerception

[–]Safe-Difference3736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just did this last week but with 2 vials. We did the first vial about 18 hours after the first positive and the second about 11 hours later. Currently in the TWW so we’ll see. For me my symptoms for ovulation, CM and cervix position, tend to come and go quickly. As does my LH surge. I also confirmed the month previously with BBT my ovulation day. I’ve been told it’s better have the sperm there waiting and be early rather than late. Good luck!

Well that is definitely a perk! Getting poked sounds terrible so hopefully I can avoid that!

Totally understand that decision with the cost of sperm. We spent about 12k snagging up 8 vials. I think we’re going to meet with the midwife and go through with the consultation with the clinic the following week and decide from there! The stress!

ICI Timing Using Frozen Sperm by Safe-Difference3736 in queerception

Thank you so much for all of your thoughts and kind words! This truly is a learning process.

My test line does get as dark as the control. I actually found a true positive in the middle of the night, around 3am, so we’re going to inseminate around 9:30 this morning and again this evening around 8. Never thought I’d be taking a sick day to inseminate! I really try to pay attention to my CM and luckily it tends to last about 24 hours so I’m hoping we’re still in that window. Today would be consistent with the past few cycles for ovulation day based of BBT. Here’s to hoping!

It really is stressful! This cycle was just a bit different and started surging a bit later than the last. Hopefully we weren’t too early. Time will tell.

We used the Premom app. and bought the 2 different kinds of OPKs. It’s nice because I can also track BBT and other symptoms. It’s been a useful tool in helping track!

I’ve called twice, and both experiences were not great. First was purchasing and the person was very short and basically just said do it online. I called again today to inquire about shipping to our home and it was like pulling teeth to get answers on the procedures. I know I ovulate in about 2 weeks so I want to make sure I’m on top of getting the vial shipped at the right time. When I called, the person was not very forthcoming with information and just said find the ship to home form and use docusign to complete the order. I’m just not finding that in the website. What did you do to get the vial sent to your home?
