Hello everyone, I've just stumbled upon this thread and spent ages reading through everyone's stories...real life eh you just can't beat it! I've been lurking around the site for a while now soaking up all the wonderful advice. We're about to go for our 2nd stimulated IUI on Wednesday and I really wanted some of your positive vibes to rub off on me before I went. We've been TTC for nearly 4 years and I'm 38.

Hi ladies,

I guess I am joining this crew! I am starting an iui this cycle. Today is day 1 and I have placed the call to my clinic - they have given me no information of the details yet - but are supposed to call tomorrow to tell me all the dates of scans and the plan - natural or medicated...
Truthfully I am not holding out too much hope as I have too many other issues getting in the way - but it surely would be nicer than the cost of ivf if it worked.

Goodluck to everyone and lots of

Oh and question - did anyone have accupuncture before and after the iui procedure - just like they suggest for ivf - I have not heard of it being suggested for iui - but figure if they suggest it for ivf - then..........anything to increase my chances...

 

[Wallie]

Blue, I'm glad you're getting to try IUI before IVF. Here's hoping they're all organised for you When I go for my IUI which is hopefully in June, I'll definitly be doing acupuncture. Its really sorted out my cycles and last month I had the perfect O on day 14 and AF on day 29. I hope with that being sorted now, I'll have the perfect IUI. I just wish OH had the perfect swimmers!

Good luck!

Good luck Meme - I'm in the 2ww too on my third and final IUI. Had my IUI on Friday morning so guess AF is due on Weds - Fri next week. Fingers crossed for us.

Bizybee - hope the procedure goes well this afternoon. Good luck!

 

[sj22]

Meme sounds like you have great odds and DH count was amazing! Fingers crossed for the next two weeks x

Thank you BabyChristie and sj22!

thank you i hope so ur post gave made me smile!

goodluck BabyChristie, i hope AF wont show! do you experience any discomfort after your iui?

 

[BabyChristie]

Meme - yes, quite uncomfortable afterwards. I just laid on the sofa on Friday and it was quite painful but not so much that i needed painkillers, just a bit annoying but by Sat morning it was all better. The first IUI was the same but the second wasn't uncomfortable at all - strange!

I have been really really tired since though which I presume is the trigger shot - feel a bit better now so hopefully its getting out of my system.

Are you on progesterone or anything for your 2ww?

 

[CaseyBaby718]

Looks like lots of ladies are now 2ww-ers! Good luck all of you!!! I'm so excited for you guys!


I started my Period today. So now to the procedures for the IUI! Will be starting clomid Wednesday, as well as having blood work and ultrasounds of my ovaries. It's all sooo exciting!!! I'm ECSTATIC!

 

[Wallie]

Oh good luck CaseyBaby, that's brilliant news that your AF appeared (for once!) and you can now get on with the IUI.

It would be good if we could do a little list of where everyone is in the IUI sequence, waiting to start, started clomid, IUI and 2ww?

 

[CaseyBaby718]

That sounds like a really good idea. Does anyone want to do it?

Whoever is planning the list: You can go ahead and either put me in starting Clomid, Since I will be in 2 days.

 

[Joli]

wow - lots of you in the 2ww! I'm soooo excited for you! Meme - sorry your experience was so painful, but it sounds like DH has some amazing swimmer, and 3 follies - you might end up with twins!!

Good luck to all you gals!! xxx

That's great news sj!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

 

[Blue12]

Wow congratulations!!!!! That is very exciting!

 

[looknomore]

Congratulations SJ..thats excellent news

I am 10 days past IUI. No symptoms. Not even sore boobs. Had some cramping and lower back ache a couple of days back and a radiating pain near the ovary which lasted for one whole day. But thats gone too. I think it might be a UTI. Got the day 21 progesterone test which was "40". Doc sys thats within normal range so just have one more progesterone injection to take on friday. And then test on Sunday. I am petrified of the test. I can handle everything else but the test has that finality which is scary.
