Hi everyone, IUI went really well so quick and easy. Hubby's count was great we had 91 million with 80% motility post wash ))
Now currently recovering from a migraine, I worked myself up into such a state beforehand

My trigger was out of my system by 10 days post trigger 7-8 days past iui.. So if you do use those cheapies i think youd be in the clear by monday

Thanks everyone, its day 1 and I already want to test.

How are you all feeling ? How long till you can test ?
Praying, good luck on your IVF journey
White Orchid how long till your IUI?
Mississippi how is the pregnancy going?

I had the IUI yesterday morning and by late afternoon I had really bad ovulation cramps I'm hoping it means good timing.

The iui can cause cramps too.. Hope they ease up! Fx timing was perfect and you caught that eggie.

Pregnancy is boring me lol.. I feel so lost in limbo. No belly, no baby, no symptoms, cant tell people lol.. Its like it doesnt exist.. Cant wait til my scan thurs.. Hoping its not to early to catch a heart beat

 

[wantingbubba7]

Wow I didn't realise that it could cause cramps, well hopefully they were ovulation cramps if not I hope the iui was performed at the right time
Make the most of your symptom free pregnancy, hehe . I could imagine the sound of the heart beat would be awesome will make it more real let us know how the scan goes.

Waiting-I'm dpo9/10 and have been cramping I have a feeling it is from progesterone suppositories though. ..are you on that now too?

 

[wantingbubba7]

Hi waitingongod, hopefully its a good sign the cramping when are you testing.
No I'm not taking anything now , should I be? What is it used for?

 

[waitingongod1]

My doc has me on it from day after iui until I get a negative test at doc office. It's a preventable for miscarriage. Just helps make things more successful.

I'm not sure if or when I'll test. Af should come Friday. Doc appointment friendly morning to confirm. Are you testing on the 15th?

 

[wantingbubba7]

Hi Waitingongod,
Right, maybe if this doesn't work my Dr will try progesterone other months? I hope anyway.
I'm going to hold off until the 20th of Feb which will be 13dpiui
If I can hold off that long hehe its so hard its day 2 and I want to test haha.
Keep me updated on when you test good luck!!!

 

[Mississippi03]

Fx for you both!!!

 

[Mommieh25]

Praying for the best for you ladies.

Hello everyone!

How are you all doing? Good luck to those of you in the 2ww - I'm hoping we start to see lots of BFPs! Sorry this is just a very quick message as just home and a million things to do before bed but I was asked when I start IUI so just wanted to update you all. I'm on CD3 today so have taken my first Femara today.... Really hoping for no side effects! After that I'm just waiting to get my appt from the clinic for my ultrascan but it will be either next Mon or Tues then will go from there! I like I'm sure all of you on your first IUI am full of so many mixed emotions... Hoping I'm ok with the Femara, hoping I don't produce too many eggs so that it has to be cancelled! Eeek I wish it was simpler! Still I am trying to stay super positive!

Hugs to you all x When does the testing begin for those of you that are able to?

 

[waitingongod1]

White- yah! And FYI I learned this cycle femera usually give you only one good mature egg...I've seem some have 2. That's why not really a risk of multiples or cysts on it. I didn't have any side effects on it. It is fabulous! good luck!

Is your husband taking anything to improve sperm?

I will go in Friday for test. But at Home have taken one test and negative so who knows next week might be joining you again! Then you will be the one ahead of us!

Hi Ladies,
I had my IUI 1/31 so I'm on CD 23 and 9 dpiui. Yesterday I had progesterone levels drawn and they said it's above 20 which was the goal.

I take the suppositories and 81mg aspirin. No one told me to take the aspirin but I hear so many positives about it.

Yesterday I was insanely tired. Came home from work and basically slept for 11 hours. Also, I'm having strange twinges in my left side. It feels very different from AF cramps.

RE said not to test until 2/16 so I'm waiting and praying!

I've been searching the boards but haven't read what Implantation cramps feel like and when do they usually happen?
