IUI 2ww

I had my first IUI last Wednesday- 6 follicles and 15 million sperm... Now just "enjoying" the two week wait!

Did anyone...:
Test early?
Have a successful IUI first round?
Lots of cramping?
"Know" they were or weren't pregnant?

Re: IUI 2ww

  • Me too! Had an iui on Thursday and Friday. Honestly, it is all I think about!! 12 million fast swimmers post wash and 2 follicles!
    Can't wait to find out!!
    Will this be your first pregnancy?
    Hope this the Month for both of us!
  • Good luck to both of you. 2ww = no fun!

  • I just had my 2nd IUI this morning and just entered the 2ww! Last IUI cycle I tests around 9dpiui.... I should have waited as I had an hcg injection days prior and it was still in my system until 12dpiui. Good Luck Ladies!! FX we see a bfp soon!
    Ttc since March 2012 Me: 24 Dh: 25 Mother of many fur/feathered-babies! 3 dogs (Phoenix,Lacey,Piper), 4 cats (Grace,Delilah,Elvira,Birdie), 7 ducks, and 4 hens! HSG came back normal, Diagnosis: DOR, Last FSH reading: 17, Failed 3 rounds of clomid with timed intercourse, Failed 3 rounds of follistem with Noveral and timed intercourse, Failed 1 round unmedicated IUI, Failed 1 round medicated IUI
  • I am 2wwaiting right now too!! Good luck you guys!! What are the chances that it works out for all of us this month?? Wouldn't that be wonderful!!? 
  • I am in the 2ww too! My IUIs were last Thursday and Friday! It would be so awesome if it worked for all of us this month! [-O< Is anyone taking progesterone? If so, what are your side effects? I feel like it's altering my tastebuds! I love sweet tea on any other day, but it just tastes bland to me. Good luck to you all!!
  • I am taking progesterone. I just hate it. It's sticky, gross and makes me feel like AF is here every few hours. Otherwise, I am moody...but...that could just be all of the other stuff that I've taken all month or the supplements...who knows? I can never pinpoint any specific symptoms to individual medication. GOOD LUCK TO YOU! Counting down the days!! FX!
  • @amos1417 I start prometrium on Thursday. I have taken it in the past but never really noticed too many side effects but the one that always stuck out to me was the sore breasts. Good luck!

  • Any word from @kingme22 or @alexiskiriluk ?? Were there BFPs?
  • I don't test for another 8 days and it's driving me nuts!!!
  • Ah ok. Yeah I just had my IUI today and not sure how I will get through the next days. lol. My ovaries are hurting though.
  • It's been hard! Today was the first day I was not 100% preoccupied with it.
  • I am on day 1 of the 2ww and I am already hating this....only 14 more to go
  • Hahaha me too!!
  • I'm on a 2ww also.  Had my IUIs this week, 28th & 29th, and now I have to wait til 8/10 to get tested.  Do you get a lot of cramping for days after you do an IUI?  As well as bloating?  This is my first try with IUI.  Been TTC for years with no luck. 

    Best of luck ladies

  • @babyexpress you and @Emily4554 and i are all on the same IUI schedule and should be getting our results together. There was someone else too I believe.
  • @babyexpress. I had mine the same days. I definitely had a lot of bloating. Im supposed to start the progesterone suppositories today. From others experiences, I'm not too excited. I have by blood test on the 14th. Maybe the wanted to wait a few extra days to test? I sure as hec don't feel like I can wait that long.
  • Ah yes and @Joyzie77!! So there are four of us!!

    @Drove2u that exciting all four of us are on same schedule!  @Joyzie77 They didn't put me on any progesterone suppositories, what would be the reasoning behind those? 

    I hate all the bloating.  I feel like I only get maybe 1 week a month when I don't feel bloated.

  • I have friends coming into town all week for my last week of the 2ww so that should help distract me
  • Well I tested even though I am not supposed to! I tested 11DPIUI and 12DPIUI.... BFP!!!!!! (And I tested twice each day!!!) The darkest line was 12DPIUI in the afternoon! I am in shock!! I go for my beta tomorrow to see if it's the real deal!! The wait is driving me crazy!! I can't imagine it's still the trigger shot, but I realize it could be. Sooooooo excited!!!
  • That is amazing!! So happy for you! I tested 11 dpiui BFN. Still hoping for a BFP!
  • @alexiskiriluk - 11dpiui is still early!! Don't give up hope!

  • Congratulations:)
  • HPT BFN 13 dpiui. At DR for blood work. AF has not showed up yet. My husband is not giving up hope, but pretty sure we are out this month. 15 dpiui today.
  • Had my 2nd IUI on 8/5 and am driving myself crazzzy...was hoping this 2WW would be easier but it's not looking that way. Am tempted to test early but not sure how early.Any suggestions? My beta is on 8/19
  • @most1417 how did your Beta go?
  • @Navarro1126 My beta was 13.1. It's positive! But low. I go back tomorrow for more bloodwork and I just pray pray pray that the number has risen! My cousin just told us yesterday that she's expecting. She has a February due date, my sister is March and I am supposed to be April!
  • @amos1417 Fingers crossed for your numbers to rise!!!

    I'm 2dpo.  Ugh.  I'm hopeful, but my feelings about this TWW are just ugh.
    Me- 39 (turning 40 in April), TTC for the first time ever (since Jan 2015), low ovarian reserve
    Married 3/14/14 to my wonderful wife, but her sperm count is rather low
    TTC with frozen donor sperm and science

    7 IUIs, 7 BFNs.
    2 IVF attempts, both cancelled and converted to IUI, both BFNs.
    Decided that my tired old ovaries are ready to retire.
    Next step- reciprocal IVF, using my wife's eggs, my uterus!

    Thanks so much @KLake42!!! I just want 24 hours to pass quickly so I can find out!! My fingers are crossed for you too!!!
  • @amos1417 so excited for you and fingers crossed that this is your BFP!!!
  • Unfortunately this is not my BFP. I am losing the pregnancy. The hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. :((
  • @amos1417 : so sorry for your loss...I can't imagine how hard it is. Know that we're here during this though time. I wish you all the strength in the coming days/weeks
  • @amos1417 - There are no words. I'm so so so sorry. My heart is with you. ::gentle hug::

  • Thanks so much @KidShrink and @ErikaMG. You all have been a tremendous help dealing with all of this. I appreciate you all! :x
  • @amos1417 I am so sorry to hear that. Prayers for you. 
  • @amos1417 I am sorry to hear that. I can't imagine what you are feeling right now. Sometimes you just need to crawl into bed and cry it out until you are ready to start the next cycle with a positive mind. Well at least that is what i had to do deal with my last BFN. Thinking of you and sending good vibes for the next one. Best of luck!
  • @amos1417 I am soo sorry for your loss. I was reading the thread but felt compelled to write to you. I understand what you are going through. We are here if you need to vent or talk about anything.

    I'm out.  Got the BFN today.  At least I can take Ibruprofen now for my pain.  I want to crawl up into a ball and eat ice cream and drink wine.
