People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

IUI #2, we added Gonal-F shot in day 9 and only had to do one ultrasound. Shot helped me produce one large follicle faster than previous cycle. We also added Prometrium (2 days after IUI until negative pregnancy test). Prometrium delays period, so I’m just waiting for AF right now. Silver lining- happy to be off Prometrium for a while! I got mood swings (more that usual, haha) plus started getting mild morning sickness the last few days.
IUI #3 will probably be my last before either BFP or IVF. Should be in mid September.

I have my first IUI scheduled this cycle. I've heard it feels like the HSG (which was SO painful for me). What is everyone's experience? I'm so nervous.
I hope IUI gets us all our BFPs!
