I'm sorry Kelly that you don't have any growth yet! At least your ins. will cover you next month! Mine only covers 50%... better than nothing though. I have noticed that a lot of people who have failed clomid cycles then go to injectables get PG on the first try! So hopefully that happens to you
 I went in for my CD 10 u/s and b/w today. I have lots of follies this time!!! Right side 16mm, 14mm, 11mm.. Left side, 14mm, 12mm, 11mm... I think I got that right! Hopefully only 3 will mature fully! Last cycle I had two and it obv. didn't take So I AM PRAYING this is the one I get a !!!I go in Sunday for another u/s and I am guessing I will trigger sunday or monday, then b2b IUI's! Will keep you posted! My last group had sooooo many BFP's so I hope we see that in this group!!!!!

Hi everyone,
I am triggering tonight. I have 2 follies, 20 and 23. I am having my first IUI tomorrow morning and the next one on Monday the 21st! Apparently the person who covers the weekend has the flu. I'm fine with her staying home! Good luck to all of you.

Sara - way to go on your follicles, sounds very promising!! Hopefully you will get a
this cycle!Vanna - good luck with your IUI's, hopefully they go nice and smooth. Jill - this will be my 4th IUI and I have never had any issues with my previous cycles. Hope it goes well for you! Best of luck. AFM, just waiting for my lh surge so I can do my IUI. Hopefully it will happen this weekend or on Monday. I was so excited yesterday when I went to buy my OPK - usually it costs $40 because I buy the ClearBlue Easy digital but when I got to the store it was on sale for $34.99 and came with a free digital pregnancy test. I'm hoping that is a good sign that I will get a this cycle! I told my dh I don't want to waste the digital test if it's not positive so I will take a regular hpt then if it's positive I will take the digital test. Although I hate the sight of only one line on a hpt I couldn't bear to see the words "not pregnant" so I will just have to wait until I see those two beautiful lines before I use it.Good luck to everyone, it looks like we are all just about ready to have our IUI's!!!

Hi Ladies - I'm not exactly sure how this works, but I THINK if everything goes as planned, I'll be IUIing with you guys. I'm on follistim, 50mU, beginning CDday 3.
I had my CD7 US and bw today. I have 8-10 follicles in each ovary, with the lead over 10. There's a 9ish one behind it on either side. My E2 level is 88. My instructions are to keep going with the 50mu until Monday AM, CD10. Here's hoping for a happy ending to all of our struggles! I really don't know what that m

Hi everyone. Well, looks like I'll be joining you ladies. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be having my second IUI on Wednesday, September 23. I had five follicles on Friday -- 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12. I have another ultrasound and bloodwork on Monday. Hopefully I'll have two or three mature follies then, and then trigger that night. Then it is time to pray for DH's counts.
It is amazing to me by adjusting the meds just a touch how much better I feel this try. For my first attempt, I had 75 units of Follistim each night. I had terrible headaches and was nauseated and vomitting for a few days. Now, with 50 units of Follistim, I'm just having slight headaches, but nothing awful. It will net out to the same overall total of medicine (450 units), but I'm glad to be feeling better. The only down side is that my taking the lower dose, things are moving at a slower pace. My first IUI was on CD13; it looks like with one will be CD16. Oh, the things we have all learned through this process. Good luck to everyone. I hope this is a good month for all of us.

cd 17 u/s
hi everyone! i am excited after returning from my first u/s. was not sure what this would show, but it was good news. my lining had the triple stripe, and was 7.4mm. on the L i had at least 3 follicles, 11, 14, 17 and on the R 15, 18 and 34. the doc said i should have an ultrasound earlier in the cycle next time if this one isn't fruitful.
and i got my ovidrel trigger! will return in the morning for iui. trying not to get my hopes up too high, but was realllly happy to find out this additional information as i've been clueless about how my body functions. will be checking a mid-luteal progesterone in 8 days to see what this level is as a result of the ovidrel. she said i had a brisk response to clomid! (50mg)

Ok, I thought I was going to trigger today, but it didn't happen. I went in for my u/s and there are 6 eggs and the RE lowered my dosage to 75iu the last couple days! I'm actually a little nervous about it. On my right side I had a 21mm, 19mm, 17mm on my left I had a 19mm, 18mm, and a 17mm! That seems like too many! He wanted to do b/w today and then I come back tomorrow for the trigger. On Friday my estrogen was 397 and he expects it to be a lot higher today. With follistim, anything over 18mm is mature. I told my RE that I thought that was a lot, but he said it still depends on my estrogen levels because not all will release. I'm nervous... I don't want a litter. And he originally said that with too many eggs they will cancel the cycle, but now he is saying how good it is!?!
On the other hand I am excited because last month I only produced 2 eggs and it didn't work. So I'm more hopeful, I guess. Has anyone else experienced this with so many eggs and got PG or had a canceled cycle? Thanks for your input. Sorry so long!

Wow Sara
You have a ton of eggs or targets! That is awesome, but i know sometimes scary. If you trust your RE and his multiples rate is not through the roof, I would go with what he says. Good Luck.

I just got a call from the nurse... E2 is at 900! I have to coast tonight (no injections) and go in tomorrow for u/s. She said they may only do half the amount of the HCG trigger. But my RE is out of the office tomorrow and the other RE is in so he is going to call my RE and see what he wants to do. I am PRAYING they don't cancel my cycle!!! Please pray for me that all goes well!! Will keep you updated!
