Re: October 2018 IUI

  • @mooret1118 I'm so sorry to hear that and I get it.  It never gets easier when everyone around you seems to be getting knocked up.  Halloween is such a trigger holiday too! :( I'm sorry girl.  Did you use progesterone this IUI? If not, you may want to ask your RE about it.  Especially if you didn't make it to day 14 it may be something you need and doesn't hurt to take. Just a little messy!

  • @mooret1118 so sorry it didn't work out for you this month. You are not alone in this. Hopefully November will be your time. I have another 11 days before my beta. I was supposed to do IUI but missed the timing and hoping the bd we did that weekend worked . My Dr. Said there was still a chance but they told me not to take the progesterone even though the last 2 IUis it was reccomended. Isn't that odd? I feel like that's a setup for failure.

    My husband and I just went to the spa and got massages and lunch which I think was good timing to relax and have some time together. @cxsimo08 we doing iui because of my husband sperm , though the more that we talk to our friends he has a high volume so he is getting a really good count after the wash. 

    I had a VERY large polyp removed on August so my cycle is still kind of messed up I think this month from that. I had a 13 day AF so I think that messed up ovulation because tomorrow is my predicted date. 

    Also I haven’t asked my RE but are baths okay during the 2ww? I wasn’t feeling good and stressed a few days so I took some epson salt baths. I know that’s know the sole reason I’m just wondering if I should if we try again.

    @mooret1118 Ugh- I get you girl.  I looooove baths and use to take them but have recently stopped during the 2WW.  I don't think with certainty baths can disrupt your chances so I wouldn't worry about it too much.  

    I stopped during the wait because: 1) With IUI you can get an infection if its too soon after the procedure  2) If your water is two hot I've read that can hurt your chances and lukewarm baths are just not as fun 3) Sperm can survive up to 5 days inside you.  If for some reason I ovulated later or the egg/embryo is floating around in there and not attached its probably irrational but I just didn't want to disturb that.  

    This is mostly speculation and nothing really fact based and other than the hot water and infection- so I wouldn't get stressed and think that that caused anything.   But for me personally, I still decided I might as well stop just in case.  I will still take a nice long shower if I need a similar stress release.

  • So we just booked the ticket for DH to be here in December so we can try that month. I will check on you'll on the November board to see if anyone gets a BFP. Fingers crossed for everyone in Nov.
  • Anyone else notice that AF is worse after a round? I haven’t had one this bad in a long time. 
  • @mooret1118 Mine were definitely worse on Clomid. They haven’t been bad on Femara. Just my experience! (:
  • @mooret1118 I have read that many women get a BFP right after polyp removal as well as one of my friends.  I had a polyp removal in Sept. Hopefully we found our answer. Good luck!
