Is this a reasonable plan?

Hi Ladies,

So my H and I had our appointment yesterday with our RE.  Since DH had a normal SA and I have been cleaned out with a lap/hyst and had an HSG, she really thought I would be KU by now. 

For those of you who have moved forward with your REs, she wants to do the following next month, and I am wondering if this sounds reasonable as a first step?  It was a little daunting to me but then again I had no idea what to expect.

CD3 hormonal b/w, Clomid 50mg BID days 3-7, CD8 b/w (estradiol and FSH), Sonogram day11-13 for follie check, HCG trigger, IUI + intercourse the next day, and progesterone supplements 100mg BID starting 2 days post IUI.

Aggressive or great?  Thoughts?

    I think that sounds good.  It is similar to what we did, except for B2B IUI's and no progesterone.

    I think it sounds very reasonable. The IUI might be exactly what you need to get everything together in the same place at the same time!

    Good Luck!!!

    Sounds very good to me. Don't be surprised if they do a u/s on cd 3 too to see how many follies you have too. I though I was just going in for blood work on cd 3 and ended up with a date with the dildo cam. Good luck!

    I think that sounds reasonable.  I think it's just tough to swallow...like wow, an IUI is in my future. 

     

    I just noticed your siggy that reads all your BFPB's got knocked up.  If I was TTC this month (can't just had the chicken pox vaccine), I'd offer to be yours!  ;-)  Here's hoping you can find a good luck charm for yourself with the IUI.

    I think it sounds like a reasonable plan, definitely not too aggressive. RE's usually start with Clomid and/or IUIs as a first step if they're not dealing with some serious infertility issues that they know those methods won't work for.

     Best of luck!

    Thanks everyone.  I definitely feel better knowing nobody is gasping at the plan, lol.

    And for those who want a little good luck, I'm happy to add a few BFPBs to my list!  Whatever works ;)
