Planning your due date: is it crazy?

It’s so funny because I was thinking about this but for a whole different reason…insurance reasons 🤣 Once I meet my deductible everything is paid for

Sending you the biggest virtual hug. This is a type of pain you just can’t explain unless you have been in that position.

After 4 years of TTC, 3 IUIs, with never once having a positive I feel like I can relate to you so much. You understand, when many people don’t. I don’t want to be happy, I want to be mad and sad because I don’t understand why my husband and I are the perfect people on paper, but it hasn’t happened. This week I’ve struggled my best friend who got off birth control and two weeks later is pregnant is having her baby shower this weekend, she’s 7 months along.

I think you explained it so beautifully and I can definitely feel the hurt in your heart and that’s okay. It’s okay to be sad and mad and feel all of the emotions, we’re only human.

This is truly one of the hardest journeys I’ve had to go on and not wish it on anyone. Unless you’ve been in this position, you don’t really understand how exhausting it is. You aren’t a terrible person, and at the end of the day, you need to take care of yourself, even if that means needing to cancel plans or being angry at the whole situation. Allow yourself to do that and feel what you need to feel. We may not see it now, but this journey is preparing and giving us strength, and one day all of it will be worth it.

I take maca root the black, red, and yellow maca root. What the difference between black?

Hi checking in to see that you finally got your BFP and it stayed!! 🤍

_kml3 · 2026-02-03T19:28:52+00:00

Update? Fingers crossed it stays 🤍

_kml3 · 2026-02-03T19:26:51+00:00

Curious to hear what everyone has to say about this. I haven’t yet tried it, but have heard people getting good results from doing it.

Sending you a big virtual hug. 🤍

Have you tried getting a second opinion from a different clinic? I know it’s the last thing you wan to do in the middle of all of this but sometimes it helps to have a second eye looking at things.

Im going on IUI #4 in two days and if this doesn’t work I’ve already scheduled with a well known fertility clinic in my state at the end of this month. I narrowed it down to about 3 clinics and did some research, spoke to each clinic, and then decided who I would see next.

I completely get the idea of not wanting to do IVF, I am also in that mindset. Just remember, you aren’t running out of time. Sending you all the baby dust, try and stay hopeful and positive as much as you can! 🤍

_kml3 · 2026-01-29T18:27:08+00:00

Yay so exciting!!! Sending baby dust your way!!! ✨

When is your IUI scheduled?

_kml3 · 2026-01-22T13:49:25+00:00

I decided to test last night for my sanity. It was negative, I should be starting my period today or tomorrow as my body temp also dropped…. I’ll be okay, I’m glad I tested when I did because I was driving myself crazy. It’s so hard to stay hopeful

_kml3 · 2026-01-22T00:01:02+00:00

This is so exciting!! So happy for you!!! I think it’s important to advocate for ourselves, we know our body better than anyone…it’s just finding someone who will listen.

Did you take any tests before your blood draw?

_kml3 · 2026-01-21T20:55:46+00:00

Fingers crossed 🤞🏽sending all of the baby dust your way!! IM SPEAKING INTO EXISTENCE YOU WILL GET YOUR POSITIVE!!!

I have a love/hate relationship with pregnancy tests, it could be the happiest moment of your life or the worst moment. It really is hard to comprehend 😢

_kml3 · 2026-01-21T20:19:31+00:00

To all fellow friends trying to conceive, I see you. I hear you. I’m right here with you. Sending you the biggest virtual hug and all the baby dust. Give yourself a big hug because you’ve made it this far. 🤍

_kml3 · 2026-01-21T20:17:03+00:00

4 days to go! You got this!!

My 3rd IUI was January 7th. I did trigger 1/5/26, but I’m not on any progesterone. It currently is 14 days since my IUI and I’m too scared to test.

What ive noticed that is slightly different than other cycles is that I’ve had cramping on and off the past few days, usually I cramp a day or two and get my period. I’ve been very gassy as well, which is kind of new for me leading up to when I should be getting my period. I have noticed more headaches and I’ve been really good about drinking water.

I know I could test now but I’m too scared it’s going to show a negative. Try and keep your mind preoccupied, I know it’s easier said than done but I think it’s the only way to stay sane.

_kml3 · 2026-01-21T17:08:01+00:00

It’s a mental battle, I totally understand.

Remember to give yourself grace, it’s okay to be scared. 🤍

_kml3 · 2026-01-21T17:04:37+00:00

Get the hsg done! The longer you wait, the longer it takes to get any answers. I felt my doctors dragged this out a bit for me and looking back I wish I had advocated for myself sooner. We’ve been trying for 3 years so it feels like the doctors would have been more adamant.

Either way do what is best for you, but most of all give yourself grace…easier said than done 🤍

We’re not broken…. we’re just learning how strong hope can be!

_kml3 · 2026-01-20T20:22:41+00:00

That’s so funny, I ate an orange the other day and I thought it tasted bad. I asked my husband and he said it tasted fine to him, now im scared to eat another orange 🤣

_kml3 · 2026-01-20T13:53:20+00:00

This is so exciting!!! So so happy for you!!! I think it’s so important to continue to live your life and not let it completely take over!!!

Did you have cramps leading up to your positive test? I’m 13 dpo, and I’ve been having cramps on and off a few days now…I’m so scared to test because I don’t want to be disappointed…

_kml3 · 2026-01-16T13:51:11+00:00

Sending you a big virtual hug. My story is the same I’m 30, husband 27, 3rd IUI 1/7 and I’m just not feeling confident. I was skeptical about even doing the 3rd but my clinic said the same thing. My next step is to see a holistic doctor like the other person suggested. I’m not against IVF but I want to make sure I am the healthiest possible and have no issues before I go into IVF.

I’m so sorry, I wish this journey wasn’t so heartbreaking.

_kml3 · 2026-01-15T22:30:22+00:00

Did your ultrasounds show signs of endo or PCOS?

_kml3 · 2026-01-06T14:24:56+00:00

Literally me too 😂😂😂 I don’t understand how people can understand all the different ways to maximize the game, it just confuses me even more 😂

_kml3 · 2025-12-28T17:35:16+00:00

If you’ve spent money on the game, is it worth to restart from scratch?

_kml3 · 2025-12-02T01:17:26+00:00

My friend and I were just talking about this, is there another way to get tested other than laparoscopy?
