Lisa/Nicki - can't wait to hear your news. I wish you the best.

Em - how are you doing? This is so tough isn't it. :( So, did you decide on IVF this next cycle?

I called my RE and I go Tuesday for a u/s and I will talk to him then about treatment.

Hey everybody! I just got back from a small vacation at South Carolina beach. It was nice to get away and get my mind off of "infertility" for a bit. But while I was catching the rays on the beach, I saw at least 3 pregnant ladies. I was happy for them but sad for me....

I go tomorrow for an u/s and will probably do the IUI on Friday if I ovulate like last month.

Em, are you nervous about doing IVF? Nicki, sorry you got a BFN.
Welcome everyone else!

Went for u/s today. Had a 23 and a 18mm follie. I got the hcg injection today so I go tomorrow for the iui. By the way, how long did your REs tell your DHs to abstain from bd before you had your IUI procedure? Do you think 2 days will hurt the count?

Hey IUI gals, hope you're all doing well. I had my IUI today and am now on the 2ww. I had a 24, 21 and several size 15mm follies. DH's count went down from 36m last month to 13m this month. RE wasn't that concerned though.

Holly, I hope you find lots of follies on your scan.

Nickie, good to hear from you again. Are you doing IUI this next cycle or going natural?

Em/Lisa - how are you guys doing???

Well talk about not understanding what was going on :oops:
I had folly scan yesturday and as I was getting on the chair I said I hope ''I dont ovulate over the weekend'' what an idiot I am!
The lady said you can not ovulate on the drugs your on without another drug and my follys were all resting nothing over 10mm.Normally by now I am at least15-16mm!I have to go back tuesday for another folly scan and to see if they need to up the meds.This is all like maddness to me because the meds are taking over everything and I am only having iui!I am now on day 9 and my boobs are huge and tummy is swollen so I look about 8 months gone already :x I am starting to know how it feels for the ivf girls :idea: Also the lady said I could be on the jabs longer than 2 weeks some women can take up to 30 days :cry: so so so so different to iui and clomid.

Hey Nicki, good to here from ya. The 2ww is going ok but slow. I'm busier this time so hopefully time will pass faster. Patience definitely is a virtue to have. Nicki, do you ovulate ok without the clomid?

Holly, sorry I can't help you with those drugs, I've only done clomid so far. If this IUI fails, I'll be starting the Lupron on day 21 of my next cycle. I hope you do ok with them.
