Hi everyone!
I was hoping I could join you all for a little bit.
I'm having my first IUI tomorrow. DH and I have been ttcing for over 6 years now and finally decided to focus our money on assisted conception. Everything so far has gone really well. The first time I started an IUI cycle (about a year ago), the meds didn't stimulate my ovaries enough and I had a large cyst before I could even begin.
This time I started with a natural AF, no cysts, and after femara, a follicle that measured at 16mm last Monday. I triggered last night (am sore today which is no fun) and getting the procedure done tomorrow.
Based on how everything else has gone down in my life, I have a REALLY good feeling that tomorrow will be a success.
I've been diagnosed with PCOS (am now on the Optavia meal plan to help control my weight and health which is working quite well) and in 2015 it was discovered that I have an unicornuate uterus for which I had to have a perinatologist sign off on fertility treatment. She was super confident I could carry to term and didn't have any qualms about it so here I am...FINALLY....after what has seemed like the longest wait and journey.
If I do get pregnant and everything goes well up to the birth, DH and I are considering embryo adoption for our second child...something that we've only just learned and are excited about. We do want to try for our bio baby first though.
Wishing everyone luck with their current cycles!!!
