Congrats 2much.
Joy, we are having the same conversation here too. Is IUI going to be worth it? You can get 5-6 IUIs for the price of 1 round of IVF here. I guess it comes down to looking at the statistics of it all.
Belle, I'm not too worried about twins but no more than that. But part of me thinks there's nothing to worry about. I had a high progesterone level last cycle and read from other women that with levels that high they had released 2-3 eggs. If I released 2-3 eggs and still none of them got fertilised then I'm thinking it's probably not going to be an issue for us. IVF has a lower chance of multiples because they can choose how many to put back in. My (kind of ) friend, who I knew had been dealing with infertility shared something on Facebook last night about infertility so I messaged her. She has unexplained and their doctor said it's either IUI and wait for public IVF or pay to get IVF privately. They're skipping IUI completely and going straight to IVF.
I said to DH last night that there's no way I'll be here this time next year and not already beginning the process for IVF (at the very least).
Rawan, I think that's definitely a good plan in the mean time. You can look at giving that plan a try while you prepare for IVF. I'm thinking of you and hope you're doing ok.
AFM, I'm on my 4th day of Clomid today. It's funny because my DH has been SO grumpy and he's trying to say that it's me and the Clomid.... I'm not even grumpy in the slightest. Nice try hubby!
