in Trouble TTC
Had my first IUI yesterday. It went well. DH's sample was 16 million and my follies were 26, 18, and 13.5 The RE said DHs sample and my follicles were all great. So heres hoping to something sticking...
I had pinching feelings and slight cramps but I'm okay. We couldn't BD last night bc I wasn't feeling well but we did today. I also had Parent-teacher conferences all afternoon and night yesterday so it was a long day. Great timing right? Progesterone starts Thursday.
Scariest 2WW I have ever entered.... Wishing you all luck this cycle!

6 Failed IUIs (Clomid and Gonal F).
IVF #1 began August 2013- BC, 4 days of Estrace, stimmed with Gonal F and Menopur, Ganirelix, 9R 5M 5F, Medrol and Doxycycline, 5 day transfer of 2 early blastocysts- good quality, Progesterone, Estrace, and baby aspirin, BETA on 9/20 BFN, IVF #2 began September 2013, stimming with Gonal F (higher dose) and Menopur, Ganirelix, 18R 14M 9F with ICSI, 5 day transfer of 2 BBs one was starting to hatch, 2 frosties: 1 BB and 1 AC, BETA on 10/21, BFN BETA was a 5- chemical
Getting some more testing and trying to figure out what the issue is before FET in December, started acupuncture on 11/10, RLP and some other BW nothing major to report except slightly high Prolactin. Prolactin was slightly high when I started with my RE and I already had an MRI which was Neg. Endo biopsy=negative. WTF is wrong with us???
