DM360- Good luck! What # of injectible cycles are you? (goofy wording, hope it makes sense) My first cycle of injectibles were like yours, and this one was better.

Hey Girls.

Well, I had my IUI yesterday afternoon, and was glad when the nurse managed to locate my cervix.... half-full bladder paid off again (thank goodness!) :

When I went for my scan on Wed, I was told that I had 3 good-sized follies... so I had to trigger on Thurs and go for IUI on Fri. The thing I'm worried about at the moment, is my temps are not at all 'normal' for me... and don't seem to clearly indicate that I've O (normally the day after IUI my temp shoots up). So I'm a tad worried on this front. Is it possible to trigger and not O within 36hrs?

Hi ladies,
I'm getting ready to head in for the second IUI. Yesterday's went well. I'm a little bit concerned, because last month at this time I had severe ovulation pain and this month I don't feel anything. Anybody have this experience? With 6 big follicles, I was expecting to feel something... I did the trigger at 8:30pm on Friday, so shouldn't I be ovulating soon?

Had our IUI this afternoon. Everything seemed to go well. I went for acupuncture before the appointment. The whole experience was very relaxed (as relaxed as you can be with your feet in stirrups) The nurse that did the procedure is the person at the doctors office that I feel the most comfortable with, it really helped to calm my anxiety. The IUI was pain free. She said everything looked great. I have been having some slight cramping since but nothing intolerable.

Dm630, It is great when you feel it went as good as it could.: Hope it results in your bfp in 2 wks! GL!

Soc, Sorry I can't remember...are you on Clomid? Asking because Clomid made my temperatures irrelevant and my acup. confirmed that, as a drug, it causes "excess heat" in the body (tcm terms) and it can really mess around w. your temps. Did you check cp?

GL to all those just post-IUI :

And those of us further ahead in the 2ww, well I know I could use one, so

I said this on the One Thread but I have dreamt I was preg. for the past 3 nights and it's driving me nutty. 9 dpo today.

Oh Poetgirl, the 2ww is so hard. It was right about the time you're at that I started getting completely mental last month.

I just had my first go with the Crinone gel and am hoping for minimal side effects.

Fingers crossed for everyone in the 2ww!!!

DM630- Good luck in this 2WW. What were your spem numbers?

AFM- AF came EARLY So we have donor sperm set up with the clinic. Like I said in the Nov. thread, these are choices I never wanted to make.

Oh Naturalmom, I am so sorry. They are certainly awful decisions to make. So many take their fertility for granted.

So sorry again Naturalmom. It just isn't fair.

I got a peak reading on my monitor today. So our IUI is tomorrow morning.

Naturalmom - I'm so sorry! I hope you and your partner are patient and gentle with each other during such a difficult time.

To all those in the midst of the 2WW - good luck! My fingers are crossed for you.

I had just finished taking the clomid for this cycle when DH informs me that he will be out of town during the critical time. I hate to miss a cycle but I don't want him to piss off his boss. A year ago at this time he was out of work. I hate feeling this helpless. I don't think my Dr's office has the facilities to store swimmers.

None of this is helped by turning 38 yesterday. tick tock tick tock.

Happy Birthday Masel!! I am also 38. I am also feeling the clock tick louder. Everyday I think about this.

I know how you totally feel on this situatuion. Its like the universe is playing tricks on you. This is my worse fear that I take all the clomid, trigger shot and dh can't perform on duty on that day. We already have issues of him not being able to perform when he is put "under the gun". He has SEVERE performance issues. The doc said we could freeze some samples but it will be not as good as fresh. I am thinking we should have some stored in case we are in a bad situation, which I know it will happen. Its better than having little sperm vs no sperm.

I will be on these boards soon, hopefully next month I will have my first IUI. In that case my first clomid also. Little nervous, not being too optimistic but not giving up hope.

Masel- Suckitude!!! Sorry for this cycle! Sitting out seems like suck a waste of time!!!

Had baseline US today, picked out donor. Big cyst. BCP until Dec 22, then another US BCP makes me crazy, hoping I can tolerate them.

A quick update. I am confuzzled. I'm 11 dpiui, 12 dp trigger.
My temp dropped today which really set me off. While doing errands I bought 5 preg tests at Dollar Tree and then did one at 5 pm and got a faint line, BUT I really really think it's the trig remnant. I am super sensitive to meds.

Masel, Happy Birthday and I 'm sorry it's bittersweet...I understand.
I hope and wish there is some way your dh can be there for you to do an iui. Clomid's no walk in the park. At the least, could you get to him and still try yourselves? My sister's dh was in the same situation and told his boss the actual situation and was let go. That's a risk too though in other ways. GL.

Nummies, Good Luck!!!
