Hello 
I'm on cycle day 12 and will most lively have my IUI Thursday and Friday or Friday and Saturday. I had an ultrasound today and have about 3 good follicles at about 17-18 each and a few more at about 14 ..uterine linning is great too..EKKKKK!!! Doctor had the multiples chat with us again and had me not take any injections tonight. I go back tomorrow to make sure all is good, and more than likely take my trigger shot tomorrow night!!! I'm over the moon excited, but soooo nervous I'm a baby for anything medical, how was anyones else's exleriences?!?!?!?!?

Oh, how fun. Good luck to you!!!

@LovelyPlum: Thank you!!!!!

I've had two IUIs. The first was a piece of cake. It took the doctor about a minute to insert the speculum, then the catheter, and do the insemination. It was uncomfortable, but not painful. The second time hurt a ton. I think the nurse positioned the speculum incorrectly. I had a tons of spotting and cramping after that one.
I hope yours goes smoothly! Good luck!
Eta: & welcome to Hellobee!

@Leialou: Sorry to hear the last one was not so fun
Thank you and hope all went well/goes well for you too! P.S. I like the minute time..I can handel that..lol
-
@FaithFertility: You'll do great! My first IUI was a breeze but the second one (the next day) hurt just a tiny bit like cramping. I had two different PAs perform the procedure so I think that's why. Are you seeing an RE or going through your regular OBGYN?
-
@swedishfish: I'm with an RE he is so gentle with me since well the whole practice knows I'm a baby.....lol
-
@FaithFertility: welcome and good luck! Mine was super fast and I only had a slight cramping.
One thing I didn't expect was to confirm that the test tube sample was my husband's. they asked me my name, what I was there for, and my husbands name as I was in the stirrups. I had a momentary freak out thinking of the other men in the waiting room.
Keep us posted!
-
@FaithFertility: Seriously, don't fret over the IUI. It literally took less than a minute each time. The ultrasound on the day of the first IUI took longer than both IUIs combined.
Also, I cried in the waiting room of my RE's office when the PA gave me an injections lesson for my IVF cycle. Everyone in the office saw - luckily there weren't any other patients there at the time! So don't feel like a baby at all
-
@dagret: Too funny!!!!!!
-
@swedishfish: aww I bet, it truly is a basket of emotions!!!! I hope all works out for you as well!!!!!! :))))
-
My three IUIs were a cinch. Painless and quick. You have awesome follicle development!
-
@raintreebee: Yeah so I was told...lol I just got my estrogen levels it is 802
looking good!
-
i've had 3 iui's, the 3rd one being the charm! you'll do great, just relax and it will be over before you know it! good luck!
-
I had two IUIs and am currently pregnant. Both were totally painless. Good luck and try to relax!
-
My IUIs were quick and painless! I hope yours are too! Best of luck!
-
The ones I had were honestly a piece of cake. Had some mild cramping afterwards, but, honestly, it was extremely easy. The hardest part was not giggling like a 12yr old in front of the dr at DH standing there holding the vial of junk, keeping it "warm" as he'd been told to do. You'll do great! Keep us updated : )
-
I'm in route to DR for what we think is the last ultrasound check before I trigger tonight....Ohhh Boy :)) Ladies thanks for all tbe positive support, I'm feeling confident and ready, but still nervous...that will not go away...lol
-
@FaithFertility: I'm a huge baby too! I haven't had IUI (yet?) But I just wanted to wish you the best of luck!!
-
Just wanted to chime in and also say it was pretty easy. I had 3 and depending on which doctor did it, it was either super easy and quick or just took a few minutes, never worse than a pap. The 3rd time for us was successful. Good luck!!
-
Thank you all :))) I just got done and well I was coasting and not taking any meds for two days in hope that tbe other follicles thay were at about 12-13 did not grow, well they did I have 4 over 16 and 5 at 14.... UGHHHHH
So I'm coasting again today no trigger shot he is not to thrilled with about 11 potential eggs, soooo we shall see! I'm suppose to LH test on my own and come in for a scan to see how many are potential if it still is 11 we are backingout, man what a rollercoaster of emotions!
-
@FaithFertility: Yeah, I didn't want to mention in my previous post that my RE told me he would cancel my IUI if I had more than three mature follicles. Hopefully things calm down and you can still have your IUI this cycle!!! My fingers are crossed for you.
-
@swedishfish: Thank you, yeah we always knew it was a possibiliy but he was pretty sure they would not grow, but I'm an overachiever.......lol hopefully we can figure it out and get it together
-
@FaithFertility: Haha, overachiever! That's true! But it's great that your body reacted so well to the medications
-
@swedishfish: RE words....lol yes, that is true!
Thank you and hope all went well/goes well for you too! P.S. I like the minute time..I can handel that..lol
