Hi ladies

I'm a mum of one thanks to iui (unexplained infertility) and now trying iui again for number 2. I actually did iui last sep but it didn't work. Hopefully more success this yr. ok if I join?

 

[ILoveme29]

@mk8 welcome, and sorry about September hopefully your next will be your lucky one. When do you plan to start or what CD are u

 

[mk8]

Thanks iloveme. I'm hoping to do iui in March. But this time at a diff clinic. I went back to my original clinic where I got my bfp but they are undergoing refurbishment so I had to do the actual iui at a sister clinic which I don't like.

I see you take femara, is that an oral drug? Is that helping with ovulation?

 

[ILoveme29]

I'm sorry to hear that. Yes it's an oral drug similar to clomid but better due to less side effects. Do you know if you would be doing that too? What did you use last time if it worked then hopefully it will do the job again

So went for scan today! One follicle at 20mm and a couple others at 13-15mm. Trigger tonight and IUI Wednesday. Anyone know if there's any chance the other follicles can catch up by then?

Amanda...the trigger shot gives all mature follicles a maturation boost. They will likely grow 2mm each day.

I just got back from the clinic for my first follie scan (was supposed to go in yesterday on CD11 but my car broke down ) and there's a mature follie already, 20mm! And also a few smaller ones which I don't expect much more out of, but one of them is 12,5mm now.
Triggering tonight at around midnight, IUI on Thursday!

Thanks guys! Katie we'll be on the same cycle pretty much!

Thank you It was a huge shock, i did a test and it was negative, i took a test on the evening before the morning i should of, so i tested too early. A week later i re tested and it was positive then i had to go and buy another! I was over the moon, it didn't seem real until i seen my baby on the screen. Best of luck to you, it took us over 4 years but finally we are there and only 23 weeks to go hopefully xx

How did IUI go today Amanda? Doing anything special during tww?

 

[amanda1235]

IUI went well! We're using a donor so I didn't get any info on sperm quality, but I'm assuming it was good! Nothing special during tww other than the usual stress and anxiety I'm sure.

TWW buddies! *fist bump*
Glad your IUI went well Amanda! Fingers crossed!

Had my IUI this afternoon, and for me it also went really well, not at all painful this time and I felt really relaxed! Didn't see DH's numbers this time around but I heard they were good
Bit tired today but other than that everything's great! Thanks everyone for the good luck wishes!

Katie are you on progesterone now? I started PIO last night

Nope. They tested my hormone levels 7DPO last round and they were satisfied with the numbers. At this point they don't see the necessity for extra hormones during the TWW.

Lucky you!! My clinic believes that in the "it can only help" way of thinking. Which means I will have all the "symptoms" thanks to that.
