Implantation???? Earlier today I had a pinching sensation in my pelvic area that was on and off for a couple of hours. Now it is gone. Could it have been? I will keep you posted if I feel anything else.

Ooh KL maybe implantation! 11 dpo for me, I tested this morning but negative, of course. I wish I could just hold out! I have still had lots of CM, and now boobies are hurting too, but the boobie situation is normal for me a few days before AF. Sigh, the wait!

This is my first time having IUI... my husbands sperm was.

47 million
35% good
45% moderate

does anyone know if those are good figures...? and i have One egg 1.9cm

i am not on any medication and neither is my husband??????

please help with your views

When do you test? when should i test ? i had IUI on Friday the 9th

My gyni didn't tell me when to go back to her???

Hi Jas, If you had the IUI on the 9th, you shouldn't test until at least the 23rd. Give it two weeks. My doctor told me to take a hpt and if it's positive come back and see her so that they can check my blood to see if my hcg and progesterone are where they need to be. I am sitting on pins and needles right now. It's so hard to wait !! I am now 9 dpo, I had my IUI last Sat. 3/3 I am probably going to try and wait to test until at least Thursday. Keeping my fingers crossed ! This is also my first IUI, no meds. My dh had originally had a low sperm count, but when we had the IUI it had risen dramatically ! It was 86 mil, but only 16 mill after the wash. Doc said that was good though, because it was all of the most motile ones. Your count sounds pretty good. Was that before or after the wash?? Good luck to you, keep us posted.

Hi chas thanks for the support and all of you.... after the wash it was 47 mill and the 35% good and 40% moderate

baby dust for everyone

How's it going girls? I feel same as usual - no symptoms at all, even the pee'ing has eased off. Oh well, see what the week brings I guess. Tuesday now, AF due Friday......

Hi ladies! Jg invited me over to your thread. I just had my IUI today and will have another one tomorrow. I did injectibles this cycle for the first time. I had two very nice follicles and dh had 15 million after the wash and the motility and all that was excellent. We have been ttc for 2 1/2 years and we have previously down 5 or 6 iuis with clomid. I am praying that this cycle is the one.... This is the first time we have had back to back iuis. Anyone else done this?

Hiya JamieLynn. I think quite a few of the ladies here do back to back IUI's - but I hadn't heard of it before I came here! I only do one, but then we're encouraged to TTC naturally after the IUI (which is much nicer for dh lol). Are you planning on continuing IUI's? Or maybe progress to IVF? Good luck - the waiting game has now begun for you!

Hi Jg, welcome jamielynn! Nothing to report here... no symptoms. Nothing.. nada. Maybe it's a good sign. No af symptoms.... 4 days away. 10 dpo here, not tested yet. Just a few more days...... :) keeping a positive outlook !

oh, and as far as the back to back IUI's aren't you suppose to have dh obstain a few days before? If you have back to back, would it even increase your chances that much? I dunno...

Chas - I thought the same thing. We bd'd last night before the IUI today (on orders from the doctor) Even with that last night, the nurse said that dh's numbers and everything looked good today. They don't think it will hurt our chances or his numbers. Hang in there on your wait - you are almost there! jg - we are actually not planning on doing anything after this round. I would like to do one more iui with injectibles but dh isn't up to it - I am being optimistic on this and hoping we won't have to anyways but if this doesn't take I am going to try and work on dh to do one more round. I guess we will see what happens. Baby dust to us all!! :)

good morning everyone... i am new here and don't really know the lingo yet like.. DH... DPO...etc etc.. could someone enlighten me please :D

It has now been 5 days since IUI.... so waiting... and waiting....this week could not go any slower :( ... wish i could wake up and its the 23rd.....

My husb and i have said if it does not work this time (IT IS /IT IS /IT IS /IT IS /IT IS ) we will have one month break.

Good luck everyone... Who is next to find out ??

Ohhh my gyni gave me an injection the day before the IUI would anyone know what that would be?

Jas the injection was most likely to release your egg so that it was ready in time for the IUI. I have to give myself the injection 36 hours before the IUI, but some doctors do it 24 hours before and other 48 hours before. A few abbreviations for you: DPO is days past ovulation.......... DPIUI is days past IUI.......... AF is period..........BFP is big fat positive..........BFN is big fat negative..........BETA is the beta hcg blood test for hcg levels..........CM is cervical mucous..........2WW is two week wait ............DH is dear husband..........SO is significant other..........LO is little one..........can't think of any others right now bu if I do I'll come back and post them. :-)

Thanks jg for all the information it is a great help!!!

yes the injection was given exactly 24 hours and whilst doing the IUI she said it was perfect timing as the Cervex was open or somehting like that....

would the injecton becalled the trigger injection thati have heard before? hmmmmm just curious
