Hi all,

I had my first IUI on Saturday. Post wash 35 million sperm with close to 100% motility. My RE is a little disappointed because he thinks that it is ideal to have 3-4 mature follicles and I have only two. Honestly, I'm happy because it's my best cycle yet. Normally I produce tons of follicles but nothing matures because he can't get me on the right level of meds. I am going to have my second IUI this afternoon. I'll be praying for all of you.

Good luck Vanna!!


I had my u/s and bw today. I have 1 follie at just about 17mm. I will be triggering tomorrow and going in Wed for my iui. If they see my LH surge they may call to do it tomorrow!

I am just glad I had growth!! It grew almost 7mm since Thursday!

Hoping and it works this time!!

Kelly - keep us posted! That's wonderful that it grew so much! I bet you're so relieved that this cycle is working!

I just got back from my CD10 us - I have a 16+change on my right, with 4-5 10mm follies. I have a 12+change on my left, with 3-4 others. Looks like we have a candidate. Hopefully my e2 levels will come back okay today.

No plan yet

Kelly, I'm also scheduled for an IUI on Wednesday the 23rd. I'm doing my ovidrel trigger tonight. Do you normally trigger the night before your IUI?

Hi IrishKelly,
I was just checkin on my IUI buddies and seeing what is going on. I saw you on here and I had to send you some and . I am keeping all fingers and toes crossed for you for Wednesday. Good luck!

Also good luck to all of the other ladies on here! I have had my share of procedures as well and we are all so close to our dreams of one day having a baby. We will get there! Stay positive...miracles do happen.

Good luck everyone!!

I just had my first IUI this morning! So excited and nervous at the same time. I know I shouldn't get my hopes up, but it's hard to not...

I'm really praying that this is the month for all of us!

Good morning Ladies! Its so exciting everyone is either getting ready for IUI or already done it! We are all going to be close together in the 2WW!!

Kelly great job on the follie!!! I'll be praying for you!

I had my u/s this morning and I am so excited because just 4 grew... I have a 24, 23, 22, and a 21, the rest are 17 and below. I was so worried I was going to have a cancelled cycle... lots of prayers last night ! RE said this was a really good cycle!!! I got my HCG trigger, but they only gave my half so the littler one's wouldn't ovulate. I am having b2b IUI tomorrow and wednesday, then I'll be in my dreaded 2ww taking those horrible suppositories!

Anyone doing b2b IUI and BD after? We didn't last time, so I'm wondering if we should after the first or second? I have preseed too!

Wow, sounds like everyone is getting very close or already in their 2ww!!!

Sara - that is awesome that your u/s went so well.

Nelly - congrats on your first IUI. Hopefully the 2ww goes by fast and you get a

Tracy - I'm so sorry to hear about the m/c. Hoping you are able to move on and try again soon

dawnmarie - I'm hoping to have my IUI on Wednesday as well. Just waiting for my lh surge since I won't be getting a trigger shot.

secondaryinsanity - glad to hear your u/s went well!

Kelly - that's great news that your had so much growth, way to go!!

Vanna - those numbers for the sperm count are fantastic! I wouldn't worry about only having two mature follicles, it's better than one and I'm sure they will be perfect targets for all those sperm to get to. Good luck on your 2nd IUI today!

Good luck to everyone else and hoping this week goes by fast so we can all get to our 2ww!

Those are some serious follicles. If you are not at the end of this I will be floored. Good job.

Day 13 I am guessing, which is Thursday. I am having serious hot flashes today. Thank you Mr. Clomid.

What kind of side effects do injectibles give? Always been curious.

I had my second IUI this afternoon. The sperm count was about 50 million, high 90 percent motility. Good luck everyone.

Kelly, I'm glad your follie grew.

Alison, thanks for the kind words. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed.
