Doing back-to-back IUIs this week.

summerbrideDC · February 2010

Because of the difference in my follicle sizes (I guess, my head was spinning a bit so I am not sure 100% what he was talking about), the RE I'm seeing this cycle (my regular one is on vacation) wants to do an IUI on Wednesday AND another one on Thursday.

I went in for a follicle check today and he said my ovaries are finally responding "almost too well" this cycle. A lot of follicles, many of which won't mature and pop, but several that are actually in contention.

I go back in tomorrow for another follicle check and we'll decide at that point if we're doing b2b IUIs or just one on Thurs or Wed.

LOL. The RE asked me if I thought DH would be "up to the task" and I said if I can shoot myself in the belly every day for 10 days, he can contribute twice in two days.

I always did b2b IUI my doctors reasons for it was what if you have not ovulate yet, and the third time, when I got pregnant with the triplets I did not ovulate till after my second IUI. I was still temping, doing my charts so I knew I had not O'd yet. It hurt like Hell the day I ovulated. I had to go home and go to bed, I could not even walk. Turns out I was over stimulated. If you have that many follicles it may be more painful this month.

Good Luck girl you deserve this. also if it helps I almost did not do my third IUI I was on the fence about moving to IVF, I wanted to, re did not, she wanted one more IUI. I agreed, we did the one more IUI and well that was all it took..
