I had my 2nd u/s today and I have two follicles - one at 20 and one at 21 and they gave me an HCG trigger. I don't know if its the hormones or just cold feet but suddenly this feels very surreal if that makes any sense. I feel so anxious ugh.

I felt the same way when I had my first IUI last week. Good Luck!
How was it?
I had my IUI last sunday morning and it was a piece of cake. I didn't feel a thing. It even felt easier than a pap. I think the whole procedure lasted about 4- 5 minutes and then the nurse had me lay on the exam table for another 10 minutes before leaving. I did have some cramping the next day but I hear that is normal after an IUI.
After many years and tears our baby boy is finally here
Thanks all - it was very easy. I didn't even have any cramping and Dh's sperm numbers were very high and according to the RE I had good CM but I think I ovulated about 1.5 hrs after the IUI finally happened so i hope it wasn't too late:(
