I ask b/c I had only one mature one this round, but we're doing TI still. </p> <p>Sorry to thread-jack @bluestriped bee: ! Last time I was on injectables, I had 2 mature follicles I think, and we did TI. Originally doc said it looked like 2 may have implanted, but by the time I had my first US, only one was still around. (Which we lost.) Can't wait to hear, crossing my fingers for you!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1810389 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:56:44 +0000 ShootingStar 1810389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had two mature follicles, and one baby. I was totally in suspense for weeks after finding out I was pregnant, wondering if both follicles were successful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1810383 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 18:53:20 +0000 momazon 1810383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All my fingers crossed for you!

Hoping you get a BFP this cycle! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1810223 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 16:58:30 +0000 BSB 1810223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jenn23: This is IUI #6 for me and I've had between 1-3 follicles in the past and still were unsuccessful. Last cycle I had 2, maybe they thought 4 was okay considering my past history of failed IUIs.</p> <p>At my last clinic, my first or second IUI had 2 follicles and they had to tell me about the risk of multiples. Haven't heard that talk since. I guess they think I'm a veteran IUIer at this point. Haha. Also, maybe I had it noted in my chart that I was ok with multiples. Maybe that's why they didn't brief me on it. I would love to have twins. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1810118 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 15:50:23 +0000 Happygal 1810118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the day of my IUI, I thought I was going to have just one mature follicle. I was so disappointed b/c we were going for 3, mayyyyybbeee even 4 (with a serious talk and paperwork like @KT326:) and that cycle had been hell. </p> <p>When I had an ultrasound at 6.5 weeks, it looks like I actually ovulated twice, so one must have decided to hurry along! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1809854 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 14:00:54 +0000 jmarionsmith 1809854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheSwissWifeStyle: they were both iui. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1809725 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 13:09:44 +0000 KT326 1809725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had an IUI with Follistim. For my successful IUI I had 4 mature follicles and only 1 baby. I did have to sign a bunch of paperwork regarding multiples before my RE would go ahead with the IUI. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/number-of-follicles-and-your-pregnancy#post-1809721 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 13:08:46 +0000 Trailmix 1809721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had 4-5 mature follicles.

My mind is already starting to think multiples. Though this cycle could be a complete bust and then we would be off to IVF land. Hopeful that this will be the one cycle that I finally get pregnant. I'll take any number of babies. If we are blessed with more than one, I'll take it and make it work. Our difficult infertility journey has made me realize that we can and will take anything that life gives us. :) Just hoping that this is the cycle. </p>
