  • Yep! Check out the two pretty ladies in my siggy.  :)  Although both happened on the third IUI. My kids are quirky like that.

  • I have DOR so my RE wanted to be aggressive.  I took Clomid twice last year and had really bad side effects from it.  I have about 5 mature follies and about 15-20 smaller ones.  I'm just excited about the IUI.  I really hope it works.

  • I just had my first IUI on 3-11-2011.  My DH and I have been trying for 4 years since we got married.  last year we tried Clomid under the direction of my OB.  I will never do that again it was terrible.  The side effects are horrible.  Went 3 rounds with that and I refused anymore.  My OB reffered me to my RE. Went threw bunch of tests and found out i have a scar in my cervic that is preventing anything from being able to get up there. So RE put me Straight on Follistim 100 iu for about 2 weeks, I started getting cysts but thank god they disolved on their own.  Then I had to take Follistim 150 iu and Ganirelix (pre-measured) together until I had 3 huge folicles and one small one.  On 3-10 I took my Ovidrel (also pre-measured) and the IUI procedure was 3-11.  Now the waiting game..aguhhh.  My only symptoms of anything so far are slight cramping, my breasts are sore, tired and slight nausea.  Have to wait until 3-25 for bld test.  Crossing my fingers.  Hope yours works.  Praying for you!

    I really hope that this works for you.  I'm just a few days behind you so hopefully we both get good news.
