5dpiui & still really crampy!

[HSlady4]

Hey Ladies,
Any of you who did iui have cramping issues so long after iui? (I am 5dpiui) I felt that the day of iui and the next day I had a dull ache in my uterus area, but as each day goes on my cramps become more noticable throughout my abdomen (near uterus and ovaries). I do also have sore nips (which is very new to me, never had that before in any of my TTC cycles) but again, I am not that long into my tww, that's why I am looking for any insight! Any input would be great! Goodluck to everyone this month!!!

I don't know about iui but I've heard alot of ladies that got sensitive/sore nipples before they got there BFP's But the cramps I got myself like AF/PMS cramps 2dpo I was completely thrown by this and I've continued but not actually cramps just twinges... And also this is the first month that I've experienced sensitive nipples and the cramping I experienced 2dpo was so extremely noticeable... So heres hoping that these symptoms are all leading up to your BFP... GL and LOADS OF

Everything you are saying sounds just like what I am experiencing! Lets hope this def. leads to our BFP's! When do you test? I have a Beta a week from tomorrow. I told myself I will go for the beta and while I wait for the results at home, I will most likely poas then That is what I did with my DS and got a BFP (supersticious much, hahaha)

I don't test till the 26th a week from today... I know I'm not going to test early this time around did last month and drove myself crazy, and wasted $$$... Well I hope I can wait. I hope this is our month... How long have u been ttc??

We started ttc #2 in January of this year. There were 3 months taken off throughout (due to a vacation & work), so this is month 4 for us on ttc #2. I am hoping this is our lucky month! How long have you been ttc?

I've been NTNP for a year and this is my 2nd month really ttc, we are trying bbt charting and opk'ing. Although my DH hasnt been cooperating with me, he still wants the LET IT HAPPEN route. If nothing happens by December by gyno is sending me to a fertility specialist. How is the iui's can you give me a little insight of the process and what has to be done before they will perform it...

 

[HSlady4]

This was my first month of IUI. I was on 100mg of Clomid (days 3-7), did two days in a row of Gonal-F (300mg) and did the trigger injection. The day of my u/s I had 3 mature eggs & my E2 level was over 1000 so they had me trigger as soon as I got off the phone and then I went in for my IUI 24 hours after my trigger shot. It wasn't too bad either! I did get a little bleeding and cramping (as you now know, haha) but overall I feel good about it all. The last 3 cycles of ttc this year, I did just clomid/trigger and added gonal-F in on month #3. With my DS, I got my BFP on my first round of 50mg Clomid/trigger injection...so it's seeming that it's harded this time around, but I am hopeful, because I do know that I can get pregnant and carry to full term.
I hope your husband cooperates for your sake It's swear its easier for men to stay relaxed and just go with the flow then women! I really hope we both get our BFP this month! But overall, I felt good about the iui and my Dh was interested in getting a SA, even though we already have a son, but it was helpful to see his numbers to see where we stand with everything. I should add that I have mild PCOS.

Ok as I reread this, first off, my typing skills are sucking today, hahaha, and also, when I said about how I took my trigger shot as soon as I got off the phone, I meant that because after my u/s, me E2 levels weren't going to be in for 2 hours, so they had to call me. Just thought I would clarify. Eeek, sorry!

 

[saveme]

That seems like so much, I really hope you get your BFP you already have a little one your body should recognize what its supposed to do sooner or later... LETS HOPE SOONER LIKE NOW!!! Well clomid is deffo going to be an option for me at the end of this year, if I dont get preggo before then but I have a good feeling I will. I believe strongly in Gods will and when its his time to bless us He does... And LOL the typing thing always happens too me...
Hey you wanna be ttc buddies??? I wanna keep up with you...
Oh and so far today anymore of the cramping???

 

[HSlady4]

Hey Yes, I would love to be ttc buddies! I have had cramping today on and off! I also (tmi coming) have had very noticable montgomery bumps (bumps on aerolas) appear big time and my aerolas are really sore! (Again, sorry for tmi!) How are you feeling??? Any symptoms on your end? I have been having both sharp pains on and off for DAYS in my ovary area then other times I get a dull ache/tingly feeling in my uterus area... I am trying not to get all worked up but it's so hard not to!
I personally had no problems with Clomid. I know Clomid can cause people to have really bad side effects (mood swings and such) but fortunately, I didn't have any of that. And you are right, when God wants us to be pregnant it will happen. But I do hope it happens this month for us both! :-D

HSlady- have you looked at the assisted conception area too? I use to stay on there when I was doing iuis. They post numbers to the SA pre and post wash, E2 levels and LH and follie sizes. You may have already been on there and seen. When I did my iuis, I cramped for a day or 2 and then it stopped so maybe it's a good sign for you! Fx!

 

[saveme]

Well no cramps but stomach was really upset, and I got really nauseated before going to the gym, still really tired and my nipples are sore still(this is very unusual for me) and then when I was working out got so fatigued and dizzy, but this sometimes happens too me when I dont eat enough during the day... And believe me I'm praying this is our month... KEEP ME UPDATED.
