Trouble TTC

Responding to injections!

YAY, so 2 appointments in a row where my RE wasn't the bearer of bad news, as he usually is. I have been injecting Gonal-F 150 IU since Wednesday, and my lining is still looking good, it is up from last Friday at 4.5. My left ovary had a follie of 12.5, and my right had a few around 6mm. My estradiol came back at 171 and LH is 2.3. I continue to stim tonight and tomorrow, and we go back on Monday for a recheck BW and US. DH is good with the injections, they don't hurt, just feel like a mosquito bite. 

How long is it once you trigger before your IUI? and do IUI's feel like a pap, or should I take an Ativan for nerves? Lots of love, and happy weekend ladies!

Re: Responding to injections!

  • I've had 1 IUI at 24 hours after trigger, and 1 at 36 hours after
    I personally don't think you need medication to deal with it. The IUI was less irritating than a pap, in my experience
    Congrats on responding well!

  • That's great that you're responding.  I always had 1 IUI at 36 hours after trigger.  My IUI experiences weren't all that great, but everyone is different.  Hopefully yours will be a breeze.  Good luck!

  • That's awesome you are responding well to injects! I'm going to start injects soon as well.

    I have had my iui about 24-36 hours after my trigger shot. My dh does a great job so I don't feel it.

    Best of luck to you!
  • Congrats on great numbers! Good luck with IUI. :)
