Anyone Succesful with Round 1 of IUI

Bailey - July 11

I had my first round of clomid with IUI this month and am going for a pg test on Thursday - I'm not feeling too confident because I feel fine. We have been trying to conceive for 1.5 years (technically) we did have an eptopic back in May of 05. My husband and I have had every test under the sun done and we are both fine. Perfectly healthy - we just have "unexplained fertility" so the specialist suggested a round of clomid with IUI - which they did the IUI back to back - Thursday/Friday. This particular clinic increases your chances by doing it 2 days in a row. I'm getting really nervous now that I know I'm going in 2 days for a blood test - just looking to see if anyone was successful after their first round of IUI. Thanks.

Bailey, our situations sound identical. This was also my first IUI, we have also had all the tests done and ended up with a diagnosis of unexplained infertility, we have been ttc for two years, and at my clinic they also do two back-to-back IUIs. I go for my Beta test on Friday, and like you, I don't feel confident because I have ABSOLUTELY NO symptoms at all. About a half a year ago I had a miscarriage (a chemical pregnancy I guess they call it), and I knew I was pregnant before I tested. My bbs were huge and so sore. This time, there is nothing. I am trying to keep positive thoughts though, and will definitely try again if the first time doesn't do the trick.

lqtoo - as weird as it sounds before I tested + last year I was making chicken and started gagging so I took a pg test and it was positive - that was from the eptopic pregnancy - so I think I was figuring I might feel something. I'm going to be so anxious until Thursday - if we didn't succeed this time around - the next round they are going right for injections. She said my age is a huge factor. I'll be 37 this month so they want to be more aggressive. Well here's to hoping we are both successful this time around.

Actually that is the one difference between us...I am already on injectibles. I am taking Puregon (the Canadian form of Follistum). At my clinic, they tend to go the aggresive route right from the get-go. Anyway, good luck to you...I will be thinking about you and sending baby dust your way!!!
