Sigh, starting iui #2 process tomorrow. Currently, I'm at CD3, since they aren't open, we are doing the u/s tomorrow and start the meds all over again. I'm hoping for a birthday present, my birthday is on the 10th and DH is on the 14th.
How can 51 million sperm miss and not fertilize one egg. Its science!
Sigh

Thanks ladies, I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one that thinks sperm should meet with an egg the first try ;-)
Good luck to you too @ky29!! We can continue this journey together!!

@ky29, for my first iui, I was on 100mg clomid, then 150ui Bravelle. Had a u/s, my follicles were about 16 mm & 13mm, a little resistant to the med, had another 150ui Bravelle and then Ovridrel.
I imagine he will up the clomid to 150mg, but we will see tomorrow.
I wonder why there is more success with second and third iui's than the the first round?

Yeah I'm hoping for a med adjustment tomorrow too, but we will see. I know my re suggested 3 before moving to ivf, but I'm not sure DH will be ready... We may do more than 3.
Sorry about your BFN. I'm in the 2WW of my first right now. It's hard to believe that many sperm can miss their target, especially if you release more than one egg to give them more targets & you're bypassing the cervix. It stinks. GL with IUI #2!
Went to the RE this morning, no cysts, yay! He is putting me on Femara 5mg, and then I'm injecting Bravelle 75ui on 12/31, 1/2 & 1/4, ultrasound to check follicles on 1/6. Hopefully iui #2 next week, my birthday week! My RE says that this is a much more successful way to get pregnant, he didn't like how my body reacted to Clomid. Here's to hoping!!
