Well I am officially in my two week wait. I started the prometrium suppositories and we will just see what happens. I also have a accupunture appointment tomorrow that focuses on successful implantation. I am glad I have a busy job because I definately think I will need to keep myself occupied. Good Luck to all of you and keep posting! I like hearing what everyone is going through.

Just had my first IUI yesterday. Very emotional experience, Must be the hormones. Never thought I would be driving the 405 in LA with my husbands sperm nestled between my cleavage heading to the gyno for IUI. Last month I was on 50mg of Clomid + Premarin. This month, I was jumped to 100Mg plus Premarin. Had HCG trigger on 10/19 and IUI on 10/20. Doctor said DH was bionic :-) and my follicles were 24mm-26mm. I had some weird stabbing pain yesterday. VERY bloated. OMG that shot is for a horse. Today I feel normal. Praying and Hoping.

Looking for a fertility friend.

Me: 37 (2 daughters Kelsey 15/Haley 13)
DH: 32

TTC 1: 50mg Clomid - BFP Negative
TTC 2: 100mg Clomid - HCG Trigger - IUI1 10/20

More Meds?!?

Hi girls. Had my u/s and bloodwork today. My E2 is 378 and I had 2 follies on L (16, and 11..I never have them here) and 4 on R (13,13,12,11). I thought for sure she would have me trigger but she wants me to take 2 more days of 200 of follistim and go in for bw and u/s on Friday! I'm afraid I'm going to ovulate since I've never had anything better than 14 before a trigger. I'm also terrified of multiples!!! My belly is crampy and sex kills....sorry TMI. keep u posted.

Heatherly, when they do b2b IUIs do they use fresh or frozen swimmers -- or one of each?

I'm not sure about the b2b2 IUI as my RE doesn't do them.

My cycle was cancelled d/t OHSS with follicles at 19, 2 at 15 and 2 at 16?!?! my E@ was 500 something. I am so upset! This sucks!!! All that $$$ for nothing!!

We are local to each other! I am on the Eastside though.

As for doing b2b IUIs- we use fresh samples each day.

I stated Endometrin this morning and I kept having dizzy spells while working at my son's preschool. Not sure what that is about??

Just a FYI - I HATE THE 2WW!!! I am a chronic early tester.

Also, what are you eating? Drinking?? Avoiding??

Because you have 5 follies or because of the sizes? My RE says he hopes for 2-5 follies with IUI. I have read here that other Drs like that amount too.

I am really sorry. Go til the cows come in!!

Nene, I am so sorry but this doesn't make sense to me. I thought that OHSS was an issue with IVF and not IUI since the eggs are harvested and not actually ovulated. I did have OHSS when I did both rounds of IVF - the first time I had 63 eggs and the second time I had 52. With just 5 follicles, how on earth could you be at risk?? I am not second guessing your RE, it just seems really odd especially since your e2 is only in the 500's which is low (over 8 or 9,000 is high).

Definitely start having sex though. My RE says success rates are similar for au naturale and IUI so go chase them eggies! Good luck!
