Intro (loss mentioned) and just had my first IUI

Hi All,

I am 27 and my husband is 29. I was diagnosed with PCOS last summer and after one round of Clomid I had a BFP but unfortunately it did not stick and around 8 weeks we miscarried. I took some time off and tried a few more rounds of clomid but always ended with a  BFN. In May I started with a fertility Dr and first month tried timed intercourse but another BFN. The next 2 months were bust with clomid + injectables, the follicles just wouldn't grow. Finally this month after an elevated dose of clomid and starting shots sooner I was able to produce two follicles (as of Monday the left was 21.5 and the right 18.5) and I triggered yesterday morning. Well today I had the IUI and it seems everything is where it should be (lining was just right at 8.35 and my husband had 90 million motiles after wash. Guess I will get comfortable on the board as I start the 2WW towards a hopeful positive. 

My thoughts and prayers are with anyone going through this and I hope it all works this time!!
