Thanks faith! Sounds like what I expected it to...

Well my follies aren't so great or my lining too...She didn't do a whole lotta measuring but there was one follie I thought said 17 but she said it was around 15, one at 13, and then one measured at 8...odd there wasn't more because I had a lot right around 9 or 10 last Thursday. I feel like she did a quick u/s and wasn't being too thorough...and my lining measured first at less than 6 then on a second measurement at 7.5+....so I am a little discouraged but I keep telling myself they have another day to grow before the trigger and possibly another if it takes the whole 36 hours for me to ovulate. I have to wait for a call from the receptionist to figure out when to do the trigger and what to do about tonights injection of gonal-f...part of me wants to double whatever the nurse says because I have a feeling she is going to say to just take 75iu...well I am still praying this cycle works and if not on to another one.

Hello ladies.

I'm back from my IUI and it went great.
Our DS numbers were great
62 mil and 67%

I can't wait to know if this our time to shine.
i'll be starting my Endometrin tomorrow.
I'm going to relax today and take it easy.
wash some movies with the hubby and just lay around...be with each other (that's all that matters).

Thank u for the support and wish me luck!

sarahelaine57 ~ I'm sorry your u/s didn't go as expected. I know how hard it is. Just try to stay calm and relax. Your follies will keep growing and soon you'll be with us on our 2ww.

Faithbabies ~ you are so sweet. thank u for following me. I can't wait to do the same for you.

everyone else.... for you all....

[sarahelaine57]

Wanessa-sounds like awesome numbers! You are on your way to your BFP!!!

Ok so I am a bad patient and took a double dose of meds...I know I shouldn't have but I figured with only one lead follie it can't hurt right? Anyway tomorrow is my trigger and then Wed. at 3:30 is my first IUI then Thursday at 11:15 is my second...can't believe it is finally here! Hope Dh numbers are good, he had to be on antibiotics a few weeks ago for an infection!

[faithbabies]

sarah...good luck! u are not a bad patient..just a persistent one!!lol....hope you have a great iui on wed and thurs.... for u girl...

[tomekwa]

Good Morning Ladies.

Sarah ~ I agree with Faithbabies. You're not a bad patient, you're just persistent. I have to say that I'm guilty of that too. I didn't double up my dose but I have upped it a little, no more than 0.25 but none the less I did without asking my RE and everything was fine.

lovesshihtzu ~ how r u doing girl? DId u already join us in the 2ww? If not no problem, I just wanted to check.

Maybe we can start a little list to keep track of who is doing what.
I can manage it, no problem.

If it's ok with you ladies, we can have your screen name, your real name (if you want to), and your next appt and POAS date.

Something like this:

Tomekwa (Wanessa) - 10/04 DS-IUI#4 ~ 10/19 POAS
sarahelaine57 (Sarah) - 10/07 & 10/08 B2B IUI#1

You ladies let me know what you would like to do.
I've done this for a while and it's all about what you guys want.
Just let me know.

[lovesshihtzu]

Wanessa - That sounds like a great idea! I am not-so-patiently waiting for the OPK change. I really thought it would have been this morning. I can't wait to join you on the 2ww!!

2ww ladies...


Praying for all of us!!!

LOL I bought a pineapple yesterday

[sarahelaine57]

Wanessa-great idea!

I am a little worried because I had some pink spotting this morning followed by some feathery type red clotty things, not sure what this is and if it will cause me not to be able to do the IUI tomorrow...I had an u/s and DH and I last night so I am wondering if the combo is causing this, waiting impatiently for my nurse to call me back!

Ok Ladies,
I had my first iui on yesterday and the numbers looked GREAT.. I am already anxious.. I might as well get comfortable huh.?.? I am having lower back pain and a massive bloating feeling.. Just for a .. I will be praying for you all and I ask that you do the same for me..

TTCook - Welcome to the 2ww. It's not an easy thing to get through but we'll do it together. The lower back pain and bloating is very normal. It takes a couple of days to get better.
I can't wait for us to get our BFP!!
We are cycle buddies for sure since I too had my IUI yesterday!!!

Sarah - I think that maybe the and the u/s might have irritated you. I don't see how you would be getting your period if at your u/s everything looked great.
I hope you can get a clear answer from your nurse.

My spotting appears to have stopped since yesterday. I'm guessing she might have "scratched" me somewhere or something like that.
I started with Endometrin this morning. It wasn't bad at all.
One day down, 13 more to go. YAY!!

[sarahelaine57]

does anyone know if you will still get your period if you are on progesterone suppositories? I am supposed to start them after my IUIs and am just curious

[lovesshihtzu]

TTCOOK - Hope you have a quick 2ww and get your !!!!!!

[sarahelaine57]

TTCook-hope your 2ww is short and ends in a BFP!!!

Getting nervous about tomorrow! Do you ladies normally go back to work after the IUI or just go home and take it easy? I am going home after tomorrows IUI, but on Thursday I am doing the IUI in the middle of the day...

Anyone addicted to POASing? I am, and just found a dollar store that sells pregnancy tests, so I can just see myself peeing on 7 sticks a day, lol!

Hi everyone!

I just got a call from my RE's office, my iui is on friday 10am! I had my 5th US & BW today. Follicles and lining are 'perfect', I have bigger follies on my left side, which explains why the feel like they could pop at any minute, its a little painful! I couldnt wait to get home and change into my pj's.

I take 75 of follisitm tonight, tomorrow my trigger, friday we go in! exciting!
The nurse told me we must... 'do it' tonight, and then not until friday.

After the IUI, I have read and been told that laying flat after really has no benefit, but I think psychologically it would make me feel like I am increasing my odds. Any comments on that? Does anyone else lay down after the iui?

Its my first iui, I am in a great mood and very excited! cannot wait!
Good luck to everyone here,
Lucy

CD2 - us/bw
CD3 - 5: 150 follistim
CD 5 - 2nd us/bw
CD 6 - 10: 225 follistim
CD 8 3rd us/bw
CD 10 - 4th us/bw
CD 12 - 5th us/bw, 75 follstim ( today!)
