Newbie - IUI and 2 week wait.

I've avoided posting anything on here because it all seems so daunting.  If I break any of the rules I apologize!

My husband I have been TTC for about 2 years.  We did 6 months of clomid and I responded to it but still no baby.  We went to a specialist and did clomid, then gonal f, then ovadril and progesterone.  After that failed cycle we had to wait a month because the follicles that seemed so promising before, hadn't gone away so my body wouldn't have responded to the meds.   

In that month we had 3 pregnancy announcements, 2 from friends, and from my sister in law.  Needless to say I was devastated.  

This month we did clomid, gonal f, with estrogen added, and then ovadril and progesterone.  We also did IUI yesterday.  I feel like I am so much more aware of my body functioning now so I start over analyzing every little thing.  

The progesterone is making me nauseated, dizzy, and light headed so I keep psyching myself out that I'm pregnant.  Even though I KNOW it's way too early to tell.  I just don't know how I'm going to get through this 2 week wait.  And it doesn't help that our 2WW is up while we're on vacation with my husbands family.  

It's all very overwhelming and frustrating.

    Welcome and good luck. Seems like you have had a rough time. I'm sure some ladies on here might be able to give you some advice on iui's but the tttc might be a good board to cross post this on. Infertility is mostly ivf where as the tttc is normally iui's. Where ever you feel comfortable at I hope you get some good feedback and support! GL!
