IUI/IVF Aug/Sept/Oct/November

[wishful think]

I'm having cramps

 

[LittleBird]

Maybe it's implantation! Don't assume the worst yet!

 

[SquirrelGirl]

I have my ultrasound scan to see whether my cysts are gone (largest was 38mm) on Tuesday. I'll have to get out my heating pad!! FX'd I will get to stop BC and start my 2nd IUI cycle soon....

I also had my second acupuncture appointment this morning. Was expecting to "feel" something afterward, but I'm not noticing any sort of difference.... Oh well, I'm up for trying anything at this point.

OMG snl! freaky, I wonder if thats the norm... do you have to go back for more bloodwork? I go back Wed for repeat I think and possible HCG testing.... I'll be be 10dpiui....

Hi ladies, just came back from U/S. I only have 2 follicles on each side of the ovary . One 22mm and the other 16mm (CD13). I wonder what is my chance with only one possible mature follicles. I don't know why, but I don't feel optimistic after so many failed months. Got my HCG Shot today, will have my IUI on Sunday (about 42 hours after the shot). I asked my Dr. if that too late, he said, nope. Hmmm. I read majority have it around 36 hours.

your 16mm should be a good size during your iui as well, they grow 1-2mm a day what size are the other follies? what time did you take your shot? what time is your iui? good luck!!!

Hi ladies! Glad all the IUIs went well today! Mine did too. RE actually said as he was doing it - "Oh you are going to be 'so pregnant' this month." From his lips to God's ears I hope! LOL! Last months IUI HURT big time. My cervix was so not cooperative. This time, it was in and he was already letting the swim when I asked how it was going. Totally different! Here's hoping that helps.

to all of us this month! I start the progesterone suppositories tomorrow.

Happy weekend everyone!

Hey ladies, is it ok if I join too? On my first IUI cycle with, down regulated with buserelin, stimming with menopur and post IUI progesterone pessaries.

I had a few follies on my scan day (Monday 8th) - right ovary had one at 16mm, left ovary had one at 14mm. There was also a 13mm and a couple at 10mm kicking around in there - this seems smaller than other people on here but I have hopes that 18 and 16 will have grown after the trigger and in time for the IUI which was at 3pm on Wednesday. The clinic must have been ok to go ahead I guess, or they wouldn't have done it!

DH-wise, his sperm was at 40 motility so we'll see. I did acupuncture rght before and right after the procedure and was super chilled, the next day however I totally freaked out and have been wrestling with myself to remain calm and positive! Going away for a week at my parents today so hopefully will get lots of time to just relax for implantation!!

It's so reassuring to find other people going through the same thing and hope you don't mind the massive post - we're all going through so many things. The timed nasal spray for downregulating is doing my head in, as are the pessaries but I know it's all worth it.

My test day is the 25th August - Lochbride, can I get added please?

Take care of yourselves everyone Hoepfully this 2ww will be the last for a while!!
