Hi there, I'm the same as you, 5'3 about 215-230 with regular cycles... difference is that I've got 5 years on you and we're not using IUI. We have one little boy.
Just wanted to say best of luck and I hope everything goes well and you have a LO of your own soon. From personal experience, don't worry it only makes it seem worse, it wasn't until I relaxed that I actually got PG the first time. Girls like us should stick together!

Thank you! im so anxious with worry and excitment! i am trying my best to just breathe which i think i will once i finally start the process...good luck with #2!!!

Hi and welcome,

Not to steal you away from these lovely ladies but I am also doing IUI and found that going to the assisted conception helps out a lot. That one is set up for people going through IUI and IVF. I bounce back and forth but over in that one many ladies are going through IUI like you and I. I have gone through one cycle so far and I am waiting to start cycle 2. Good luck!!

Wonderful! I will see you over there. I missed it to so no worries. Someone had to tell me about it and before I knew there was another one I asked myself "why is it that I'm the only one doing IUI" lol
