..~:: IUI & Clomid ::~.. anyone?

[Lucinda7981]

Lucinda, wohoo!!! That's awesome!
Eek.. how often to you have to inject the progesterone oil?

Everyday up to 10 wks of pregnancy if pregnancy :/

 

[Oculi83]

Oh wow. Wonder if you can switch to a different form of progesterone after a while so that it's easier for you.

Good luck for the egg retrieval! Let us know how it went.

 

[missy545]

How was egg retreival??

Lots of protein and electrolytes! (If you drink gatorade, dont get the low calorie one bc you can't drink it after the transfer.)

I was a little sore and had some constipation. (sorry if tmi)

 

[Lucinda7981]

They egg Retrival went well I was dizzy and had cramping but I'm much better today. I am awaiting a fertilization report so ill update later.

 

[Dannixo]

I finally got my positive opk today with the trigger shot and got my first iui this morning. You can add me for testing on the 23rd!

 

[Lucinda7981]

Update...out of the 14 eggs retrieved I have 9 ongoing embryos.

 

[vkj73]

thought i'd pop in.
i go in on sunday for my scan.

good luck to all!

 

[missy545]

Lucinda -- super exciting! Let us know when you do transfer...How many are you trying?

Dannixo & VKG -- good luck!

 

[Oculi83]

Lucinda, that's a great number! What day is your transfer scheduled for?

Dannixo, good luck!!

vkj, welcome! What cycle day is Sunday?

missy, how are things with you?

AFM, AF finally showed! yay!! So, I'll go in for my baseline u/s on Monday or Tuesday. Am waiting to hear from the clinic. I just can't wait to get started!!

 

[Lucinda7981]

Woohoo Oculi for AF showing....you'll see how fast things go from here. My clinic only does 5 day transfers so that will be Tues and ill be putting back 2 if all goes well in the meantime I have to continue taking Medrol an PIO shots:/

 

[Oculi83]

Lucinda, how are you feeling? fingers crossed for Tuesday!
My clinic will transfer 2 embryos as well (that is if I'll have two to transfer). But they'll already transfer 2 days after ER.
So, do you have to call them every day to ask how your embies are doing?

 

[Lucinda7981]

I am feeling fine...I went to work right after my Retrival and the day after. I felt dizzy and weak the day of the Retrival but yest i was just cramps. Today I feel a lot better I will not get any further updates until Tues morning when they call me to tell me what time to be there in the afternoon.

 

[missy545]

Oculi -- super exciting! Lucinda is right...the next two weeks will go super fast.

Lucinda -- Im sure you will have something for Tuesday...fingers crossed!!

The past 5 days for me have seemed so slow. All I want to do it test, but I pretty much never do and I know that its way too soon. I can't go for my blood test til a week from Wednesday bc I have to travel to NY for my sister's graduation and they wouldn't do it earlier than Monday, but I think I may test next Saturday.

I hate symptom spotting, so I trying not to, but I still do have just a little pain on my right since the retrieval. Argh!! Thank goodness the next week and a half is so busy or I'd go crazy!

 

[Lucinda7981]

Missy that's great that you will super busy cause I know that the temptation to test is so great.

 

[vkj73]

I'm glad you're feeling better. Can't wait for Tuesday! This is so exciting!!
Did they collect your dh's sample beforehand?

Oculi -- super exciting! Lucinda is right...the next two weeks will go super fast.

Lucinda -- Im sure you will have something for Tuesday...fingers crossed!!

haha.. I hope so!
Is your clinic open on Sundays? Mine apparently isn't. At least they don't take any phone calls. So annoying. Gotta call them first thing tomorrow morning to schedule an u/s appointment for the same day. If they don't answer, I'll just show up! Don't care!

Seems it is normal here for those kind of clinics to be closed on Sundays.*sigh*

yay! how exciting! I'll cross my fingers for you and hope you can proceed with the IUI asap.
I took clomid from cd2 to cd6 as well (50mg) for my IUIs. Are you taking 50mg or 100mg?

Good Luck~! I took 50mg cd3-7 but always triggered on a different day...

 

[Lucinda7981]

Oculi suprisingly DH was able to give the sample at the office right before they took me in. I was really stressed bout that and my dr wanted him to give it beforehand but DH was adamant about doing it the same day

 

[Lucinda7981]

Oculi my clinic is open 5 days a week and their main office is open 7 days a week; the main office is where they do retrivals and transfers.
