IUI#2 finished-2ww begins

in Infertility

IUI#2 is complete.  The actual IUI was fast, but I had a lot of cramping during and after.  The first time I had an IUI, I don't remember if I had cramping.  I'm sure it's normal though, right?

The good news is that DH's sperm count went way up since IUI#1.  This time it was 57 million!!  The first time it was around 18 million.  I hope that does the trick.  Now I just have to wait until July 7 for a beta.

Me: 27, DH: 28 TTC since 11/09
2/10 & 3/10 Clomid 50mg-BFN
5/10-Lap Surgery for Stage 2 Endo
3/11-IUI#1 with Follistim and Menopur-developed mild OHSS= BFN
6/11-IUI#2 with Follistim -developed moderate OHSS= BFN!
7/11-FSH-11, AMH 1.6
9/11-ttc naturally with positive thoughts :)

    That is awesome about your DH's count!  I really hope this works for you!  As for the cramp, I have gotten a lot of cramping the day of my IUI for all 3.  The RE said that it was because that is when I was ovulating and the cramping was due to the big follies.

    Thanks so much everyone!!  I was really happy about DH's sperm count too.  I am just keeping my fingers crossed.  I even changed my desktop background on my computer to a four leaf clover. I'm also praying I don't develop OHSS.

    Good luck to everyone in the 2ww too.
