Hi Ladies!!!
Leslie, eeeek re the OPK's!!! I think the one from yesterday was ALMOST + so I wonder if you are on the tail end of a surge or are still getting ready to. What are they doing blood work for? Is it progesterone? Are they going to test you again when you think you are 7dpo? As for IUI's, they are pretty painless. They are just as uncomfortable as a pap smear. The one thing I will tell you is to wear a panty liner. When they go into your cervix, they loosen up your CM and your DH's "stuff" will leak. But dont be scared if you see that happen because his swimmers will stay put and go upstream
Also, depending on how good your dr is and what your cervix is like, you might bleed just a smidge. Again, not painful just a little umcomfortable at the moment. So the HSG.. Ive had two. Not going to lie, not my favorite thing to do. It was kind of painful but I was told that may be because I couldve had debris in a tube so the dye pushed it out. But after it was all said and done, I walked out of there and was just fine. I didnt take meds or anything before I went in for pain. They did give me meds to prevent infection the first time but they didnt give it to me the second so that may vary. id say if you can avoid going anywhere after, it would be noce only beause you do bleed a little and just feel icky down there... like all wet and stuff. BUT if you have to go to work or something, it should be fine. Id compare it to like a really bad period cramp at the time of the procedure but its relatively quick. Hope this helps!! Also, so sorry about the anniversary of your loss. We have all been there and will be here for you. Hang in there.
