Hi ladies,

Not much to report. This morning I had some pinching like feelings in my side but who knows. Could be my mind playing tricks on me. Just waiting and trying to stay calm and relaxed.

sigh, thrown for a loop today. friend at work who has been trying for a bit but really only doing it "correctly" for a short time got a positive beta. of course im happy for her but.. this is the 2nd person who has gotten pos while ive been failing. doesnt help that i did my hcg shot last night. pretty abrupt crash from the happy ive been getting from the estrogen (ive been liking gonal f, i just feel a bit tired but otherwise super happy). bah

Good luck pink lolly and blue eyes! Wishing you get your bfp's!!
Bastet, it's hard not to let our heads get to us during the tww! The waiting is such torture. I am only three days piui and it feels like eternity!

trying hard > Sorry about the bfn Hope you feel better soon!

ash > Sorry about the stupid nurse!!! The 16 would defiitely have been mature enough, my doc said even my 14 was a very good possibility as the HCG makes them grow and mature the last little bit. The nurses some times can be so insensitive and I have that, our normal fertility nurse is sweatheart but there is another one that is so misluk sometimes that I just want to strangle her. Told my DH I think she suffers from permanent PMS.

Sperm count was great so just be positive and give this cycle a chance before you feel out. You gonna be in anyways

drsquid > Im the same, only 1 doc and he does the scans and results with you. GL with your IUI tomorrow!!!!

oneof14 > I hope this one works for you and you don&#8217;t need IVF but if you do and my iui doesn&#8217;t work we will be doing it togher

nicker > Awwww I really wish I could just give you a huge hug and have a nice cup of coffee just to give you the support you need! It is hard, very hard but somehow we woman have the ability to endure so much and that is a wonderful trade, I really wish you get your bfp some way or another.

daydream > Im right there with you, 6 more days till Beta. Fx;d for a bfp!!!

BlueBird > Im so sorry!!!!!!!!! Enjoy the break! I read Fertility and Conception by Zita West a acupuncturist.

I agree with drsquid, maybe you should do that third paid IUI with injectables. Not only do you have an increased chance of success you will also learn how you respond on the injections before IVF.

Froliky > Fx'd for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

isela > Im so sorry about the follies not growing. Maybe a fresh start will bring you healthier eggs and a bfp.

angels > GL with your IUI, fx;d for a bfp!!!! Anything over 18mm with Clomid and Femara is considered mature enough for trigger.

Yay im glad you doing it before your IUI

Blue eyes > Fx'd for you!!!!

MommyMel > Cant wait for you scan, hope you have atleast 2 nice follies

Pink Lolly > Fx'd for you!!!!!!!! Bring on the easter bfp's!!!

Bastetgrrl > I really hope it is bean burrowing in deep!!!!!!!!

AFM > Not much, had accupuncture this morning and it was very strong. But it was lovely.

Hi all!

So, I just got back from my scan. I feel silly because I had INSISTED on going in for a scan today on CD 11, and not CD 12, because last cycle I had 2 follicles at 22 and 26 on CD 11, and I worried my follicles might be too mature if I were to wait for CD 12. Well, I was worried about nothing, because my follicles are 17mm. I have one on each side.

I'm to take the ovidrel trigger tomorrow night, and have an IUI on Friday morning and another on Saturday morning, so 13 and 36 hours post trigger. I worry that the one at 13 hours post trigger is a wash because it is so early, but I'm hanging onto the hope that the 36 hour one will be well timed. I've considered taking the shot a few hours earlier, so the IUIs will be 17 and 40 hours post trigger... thoughts?? I know, I know, just do what I'm supposed to... but last time I didn't ovulate until 40+ hours after trigger, and I felt like my IUI was way too early.

Plus, from everything I've read, YES, sperm can live 24-72 hours in the reproductive tract, BUT ideally, the IUI would be within 6-12 hours of ovulation because 1) the sperm lose potency after 24 hours and 2) the sperm can actually swim past the fallopian tube and into the abdominal cavity. And I also know that ovulation typically happens 36-48 hours after trigger. So.... the best timing for this IUI would be something like ~30-46 hours past trigger... I almost wonder why I'm bothering with the first one on Friday at 12 hours post... you know?

Question for you ladies - those of you who did IUIs, what was the timing? Just curious.

I also have a question about injectables - which CDs did you have to go in for monitoring, and which cycle day was the IUI? Just trying to map out my cycles for the next few months here...

 

[diliapickle]

My back to back IUI was 19 and 42 hours post trigger. I also did injectables this cycle and went in for a check on cd 10 and then trigger 11 and IUI 12 & 13. I did bravelle for 4 days (cd7-10) and clomid (cd3-7).

 

[Hopeful42nd]

For my double IUI's 24 & 48 hours post natural lh surge. Those never took. For single , 36 hours post natural surge first pregnancy and, 36 hours post trigger this one.
