Iui 7/17

Hi Team H, Sammylena and Mima12,

I just had my U/S this morning and I am scheduled for my IUI on Thursday. So, I wanted to join my cycle buddies.

Sammylena, I definitely know what you are saying in terms of repeatedly getting BFNs. I am trying to keep my hopes up and be positive.

Team H, the HCG isn't really painful--kinda like a pinch. The first cycle that I used the HCG shot, I was really nervous and conveyed this to my doctor and in a quick flash he took out a needle and inserted into my stomach. I didn't even feel it -- he said "sorry to be so crude, but I just wanted to show you it isn't so bad." For me, the idea of it was a lot scarier than the actual injection. I didn't have any side effects from HCG unlike the Clomid, which I did have side effects from. Hang in there-- we are here for you!

Mima12, I hated those hot flashes too--they really got to me especially at night with the night sweats.

Good luck to all of you on the upcoming U/S and IUIs.

to all of us!!
