Can anyone shed some light on IUI odds?

[mrssunshine78]

hope it is cd1 for you today, like mars says when you know she's gonna arrive you just want her to get on with it

the success rate at your clinic is fab britt - its 40% at ours so your seems so much better

we do all seem to be pretty similar in age and trying for what seems like ever!! it was 3 yrs last month for us, we decided to try for a baby when we were settled, with decent jobs and a nice house, i too wanted to be a mum when i was early 30's.

 

[Wallie]

yeh CD1 for me today. I'll phone the hospital tomorrow and get the ball rolling with my 2nd IUI.

 

[MarsMaiden]

Go Wallie!! Are you on clomid or medication this cycle? Hope your baseline scan goes well!! *hugs*

have you had your IUI yet Mrssunshine? Any news?

 

[Wallie]

Go Wallie!! Are you on clomid or medication this cycle? Hope your baseline scan goes well!! *hugs*

Thanks Mars! I've never been on clomid but last cycle the medication was gonal-f, so I assume it'll be the same stuff.

I'm feeling quite positive, well I am just now. Last iui I went into it saying I doubt it will work but this time I'm saying it'll maybe work! Positive thinking and attitude is what this calls for I think.

Quote of today is: "It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome." William James

Anyway 1st internal scan is tomorrow 9:45, just hope this damn cyst has gone!

 

[Wallie]

yeh! cyst has gone so now injecting gonal-f from today. Go back next Wednesday to see how my follies are responding!

 

[Britt11]

yeah exciting Wallie
Thats cool that your clinic puts you on Gonal-F, I hear good things about that drug as thats what they use for our IVF program. Good luck with the IUI
I should be going for my unmedicated one on Friday or Sat

 

[Wallie]

Thanks and good luck Brit!

 

[mrssunshine78]

Everything sounds good for you wallie - so glad that your cyst has gone

went for scan yesterday and i have 1 leading follie of 19mm, so having iui on monday morning have to inject myself tonight with pregadryl (or something like that) bit worried about that, but just gonna have to get over it!

good luck everyone

xx

 

[Wallie]

Thanks MrsS and that's great news. Don't worry about the injection, it's nothing to worry about and it's a necessity these days. Good luck with IUI on Monday!

How are all my beautiful IUI buddies going?

Wallie, you've started this cycle now right? How are you feeling about it?

MrsSunhine - how are you feeling now honey? You were so sad a few days ago, I know it can really get you down this whole process

MarsMaiden? MissMarls? Everyone ok?

And Britt, my gorgeous cycle buddy, you gearing up for the IUI sweetheart?

I just know you guys can hit it this month - we are all so similar in age and issues I have faith that somehow we will stick this out together. I am thinking of all of you and wishing every positive vibe you ways.

I have a scan at 5+3 on Wednesday and am very scared - actually its more the 6+3 scan I am scared about because that is when I didn't see the heartbeat last time. I am trying to think positively but in so many ways feel like a fraud (as in "oh I am not really preggo because I lost one and maybe the same thing will happen again"). I am taking each day as it comes.

Love to you all.

[Wallie]

I'm feeling good Zee, really excited about it actually. I'm feeling positive about it! Just hope OH doesn't have to cancel his biking weekend to be here for IUI but we'll see what happens.

Really pleased to hear from you and to hear you're having an early scan. Please keep us up to date with your news and I've got my FX'd for that everythings perfect.

 

[missmarls]

ZeeZee,
Good luck with your scan...I know all will be well, we are all thinking of you
I go for my day 12 scan and bloods tomorrow, IUI will likely be on Thurs. I am feeling hopeful for this cycle, I am hopeful that we get many BFPs this month. There really are a lot of us with similar issues, I just know it will work out for everyone.

 

[mrssunshine78]

Hi ladies,

am feeling better now zee thanks, hope everything goes well for you with the scan, i imagine it must be pretty scary

iui is tomorrow, had pos opk yesterday though so not sure whether the timing is a bit wrong, we dtd yesterday so at least we've tried!

hubby had to give me my ncg injection last night cos i just couldn't do it, so tempted to do preg test just so i can see what a pos looks like - stupid i know!

good luck with your scan tomorrow missmarls

ahh you're so sweet, thanks Zee
good luck with your scan, I know you are going to being fine, I have a good feeling about this one

Hello ladies, good luck for all the upcoming IUIs!! I go for mine after a business trip- probably Fri/Sat, gosh I hope my cycle doesnt change as I am in Toronto until Thurs night

 

[missmarls]

So I had my day 12 scan and loods today. Three follies 17mm,20mm and 24mm. Back for blods again tomorrow....

 

[MarsMaiden]

mrssunshine - taking an hpt after my trigger was one of the first things I did!! Just the novelty of seeing what one would look like was too hard to resist! I also remember focussing on that little stick so hard for some PMA that I would see it again in a couple of weeks! Sounds like you have good things going on though, a pos opk and a great size follie *fingers crossed for you*

Good luck too to Missmarls and Britt and Wallie and anyone else with IUIs coming up soon!

I am on my natural cycle again but it looks like I may be about to ovulate!! I don't think I have on a natural cycle (or a medicated for that matter!) for a while now so it is quite exciting! It's a bit late as I'm CD16 today and no pos opk yet but am getting cramps and the start of ewcm so hopefully it might happen in the next day or two. I'm meant to start norethisterone ready for the next cycle though on CD21 so I might phone the hopsital and see if I can delay a day or two if I get a pos opk as I don't want to risk any chance I might have!!

Good sized follies! Good luck!

lovely ladies. I have been lurking and watching this thread since about May this year and it looks like I may be joining you soon. We have been trying now since March this year with no luck and we have both discussed that if nothing happens by the end of the year I will go down the IUI/IVF route in January.

Weird thing is I just went to see a very well knows almost famous psychic and she clarified my instincts and feelings and told me that I will have a baby girl next year but I will not be able to conceive natural and that I will need the help of a doctor. When she spoke I already knew it deep down and I always have.

So I can feel contented now and relax and stop trying and trying and failing every month. I can save up even more money and when our lil girl comes she is gonna be well and truly pampered. I am 41 and I already have identical twin girls who are 19 now. I just knew I couldn't conceive naturally. Something was telling me and I should have trusted my own instincts.

 

[Britt11]

welcome and good luck Missmoo!! Have you gone to a fertility clinic yet?
Hope you get your little girl like predicted

Missmarls- dont know too much about follie size but it sounds good, hope you get your bfp this cycle

Mars- yeah for a natural cycle too!! no meds for me as well, but we will have an iui.
Yeah, if i had a trigger shot you bet i would take a HPT like right away lol!! why not

 

[MissyMooMoo]

No I am going in January. I always had a gut feeling. I knew all along. Strange I know but I knew. I will be starting treatment at St Thomas and Guys in London in January xxxx
