IUI March anyone?

Jappy cramping can be a pregnancy sign! Also temp drop could be implantation! :dust:
 
So i got my high today on my CBFM....so should be peaking any day now!! my question is can anyone else what the IUI process feels like? is it like the HSG test? should I take 2 asprin before hand? What should I expect?

Hey Swepakepa,
IUI is nothing like the HSG..I barely feel a thing (have had 2 so far) It is way better than getting an annual exam too - no poking around in there really. They just put in the speculum which is the most uncomfortable part, if anything, and then a very thin catheter which I never feel (plus, your cervix should be more open for ovulation anyway), they shoot in the sperm, and that's it. It is over so quickly..! I think they say it is possible to have cramping sometimes, but nothing major usually.

Good luck!!
 
From my doctor appointment yesterday I have 2 eggs that are about 18mm and 3rd at 14mm so they want to wait until tomorrow (wed) to do the Trigger shot. Looks like now I will be having my IUI on Thursday. My tempature dropped yesterday and I am starting to see a line on my ovulation tests. Today is CD16 so maybe I ovulate late..

Also good news is that I talked to a specialist yesterday and my complex cyst is not getting bigger from the clomid I have been on so it looks like I will be able to do multiple IUI's in a row without having surgery :happydance:. I might have a polp on my cervix lining, but they are not sure yet so this might need to get looked at in the future.

Excited and nervous about my IUI on Thursday. Not looking foward to the dreaded 2 weeks after. Wish me luck everyone!:winkwink:

Jappy - Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!

Springy - Keep us updated on how things go today and tomorrow! Hopefully you didn't have to see any more needles

Swepakepa3 - First IUI is on Thursday so if you don't have one earlier then that I can let you know how mine goes. I am also hoping that it doesn't feel like the HSG since during that procedure I was crying uncontrollable from the pain and anxiety. I Don't wish that procedure on anyone!
 
Thanks Mallow! Just from my experience the HSG was very painful. The iui did not hury until the day after but I think that was from oving.
B estof luck and I am keeping my fx'd for you as well.
 
Mallow - Best of luck for Thursday! I am excited for you! :)

I had a second US today and the 2nd dose of the Femara seems to be doing the trick! :) Have one that is 14.42, one that is 13.44 and a third that she says may catch up. Expecting to do the trigger shot on Saturday unless I get a positive OPK before then. I am a bit paranoid about missing it so I am using the happy face as well as the regular sticks.

So excited at this point! :)
Hoping to hear results from those of you testing soon!
 
First IUI done! Was not as bad as the HSG but I definitely felt the insertion of the cathetar but it was done and over with really quickly.

Dr said DH number were good - 55 million with 99% motility. Come on boys find that EGG!

Jappy - how are you feeling today?

Mallow9 - you probably just ovulate late. On natural cycles I am 16 to 17 days so you're not that far off! Clomid for me for some reason shortens my cycles by several days. Keep watching the temp and OPKs! Great news that the clomid isn't negatively affecting your cyst and let's keep our fx'd that clomid and IUI are successful for you.

Swepakepa3 - Good luck with your IUI!

Glad to hear that Femara is doing the trick!!! Those are good numbers and always good to have more than one follicle ready when triggering.

Keep us posted :)

Hi springy, glad to hear that it iui went smooth. On to the 2ww for you.

I feel good. No cramping, no spotting, just so hot flashes, dizziness, and I keep feeling like my heart is racing. I have actually been having that feeling for a couple of days. Weird!!
 
No cramping and no spotting is a GREAT sign! I know dizziness and lightheadiness are symptoms of pregnancy so hang in there.

Jappy - when are you planning to test? So hoping this is your month!
 
I really donny want to test until I miss af. Seeing those negatives just break my heart. But I don't know what do you ladies think?
 
Jappy I see your temp is back up! Plus you have symptoms - when are you testing? :dust:
 
I won't test unless my temp reaches 37c or I get a symptom! I getting spotting before AF starts so sometimes I know it is over early anyway!
 
Well good luck to us all - no matter what stage we are at! :dust:
