Second time Successes with Clomid+ IUI when trying for a sibling

Anyone out there have sucess with using a clomid+ IUI protocol when trying ttc a sibling?. My son was conceived using this protocol I have a Dor diagnosis and will be meeting with my Re next month to talk to him about all of this but I was wondering if anyone trying for a second baby on this board had sucess with a IUI +Clomid treatment cycle a second time around?.
                 

TTC since 2012 

Dx : DOR

IUI #1 (Follistim switched over to Menopur injections) - BFN

Attempted IUI #2 (Menopur injections only cycle) better response on the Menopur then the Follistim combination treatment cycle however my cycle was still canceled due to my eggs not maturing and follicles not growing enough on a high dose of Menopur (Re said I could try a cycle of comid + ovidrel  for an IUI) for my second IUI( praying this works for us)

  Clomid + Ovidrel protocol worked still a BFN as a result

Attempted cycle  Clomid  + Ovidrel protocol for IUI # 3 (Unable to do this cycle due to a cyst)

IUI # 3 Clomid+ Ovidrel protocol - BFP    Beta #1 752  Beta #2  1536    Beta #3 3797

EDD 10/27/14

Our sweet baby boy arrived on 9/2/14 TTC # 2 Conceived without help- June 2015 July 2015- Miscarriage ( blighted ovum)
March 2016 (ectopic pregnancy) :(

    I conceived DS with iui +clomid on the second try. DH has mfi, low count. We tried 3x iui and clomid for #2, no luck. I moved onto injects and this didn't work well for me. I was under stimulated, I made it to 3 iuis in 6 months. I then tried Femara and got pg with twins on the second iui cycle.

    I thought the second time around would be so easy but it really wasn't. It was harder than the first. I hope it goes easily for you.

    I did two IUIs with clomid prior to our IVF and neither worked.  Quite a few years later, after two miscarriages and not wanting to do IVF again, I tried Femara and IUI.  The first didn't work, but the second where I combined Femara with low doses of Follistim did work.

    Good luck.

    Kelly, Mom to Christopher Shannon 9.27.06, Catherine Quinn 2.24.09, Trey Barton lost on 12.28.09, Therese Barton lost on 6.10.10, Joseph Sullivan 7.23.11, and our latest, Victoria Maren 11.15.12

    Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck.  Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.

    I haven't started trying for number 2 yet but I have been interested in the same thing. So I set up an anonymous survey so we can all see the results.
