I go to a fertility place in Miami called IVF of Florida

Lisa- I had a friend tell me they measure her in low numbers like u. My DR doesn't do it like that , they told me between 18-22 is good but not 100% sure
-
I believe that the 18 to 22 range is what they look for. I had one that was 23 and they still did IUI. Not sure on the low numbers though.
-
My numbers are usually high like 32-35 two of them were like that monday. The others were I the 2something. That's why I say maybe mine are over cooked?
-
Our RE said anything 15 cm or 1.5 mm and above they consider have a potential of producing an egg. They like to see them around 20 or so mm or 2.1 cm. They told us that the collie typically grows at .2 a day so I had a 1.3 (was one of them) on Monday I posted the sizes on another post in this thread. They said you can assume that today it would be 1.7 which is good and headed in the right direction.

Im a big overwhelmed. I need to know all that plus what i need to do before I do IUI to increase my chances of getting pregnant. thanks guys!!

Well today comes with so many emotions. Excitement, the feeling of empowerment, the start of a new life.
Yes I wish I had a hand to hold these next two days but in the end 10 little toes and 10 little fingers will erase this brief moment of loneliness.
I've heard many say stay positive and even imagine this happening. I thought I was a glass half full type of woman until recently.
I allowed many doubts to fill my mind. I've watch through many of you that the power of positivity really does work. So I've let down my guards that stand to protect me from disappointment and open up to possibilities beyond my biggest dreams.
I've prayed for all of you and in some way believed maybe God doesn't want this for me. Though in my life he's never let me down and so I need not start doubting him now.
Many people have been placed in my path during this process especially you guys.
My friends at work always say they think I'm courageous and continually check on me. I initially was afraid to tell them because I thought they might think I'm weird or think less of me. How far from the truth that was.
My girlfriends hold me close during all these different stages of my life. I've defenatly been fortunate to have long time friends that nothing has come between our bond for the past twenty years plus.
My mom isn't as excited as I would wish but I feel like she is coming around. I am probably closest to her and hurt deepest by her. I know I have to accept her exactly where she is and just hope one day it will be better.
And you guys especially are not only my biggest cheerleaders but sisters that I get to walk through this beautiful journey with. Some days that just means knowing your there, some days getting out burst of laughs reading each others experiences.. the chicken, the gravy have been a couple of my favorites! And some days following your lead to just put one foot in front of the other. All this collectively has calmed down my fears and increased my faith and given me the feeling I'm not ever alone.
As we all go through this week having iui's, beta checks, doctor visits, I mentally have you all holding my hand in a circle of faith, love and positivity.
Kisses and hugs to you all!

That was amazing Lisa! Your words have me in tears. It is wonderful to feel so connected to women I have never met but you gals are my rocks. We are all courageous, beautiful women.
I will be holding your hand and everyone else's today, tomorrow, during your TWW and beyond. It may take time but God will give us all exactly what we need, when we need it. Love you all and good luck! -
Well said ladies! God creates miracles in his time not ours we just have to be patient, though it's hard. I knew I was bound and determined to be a mom at 26, ten years later is when I became one! Now looking back maybe that is a good thing because I am a much more patient person and don't take one minute with my little man for granted.
BTW - I am Kim from IL -
Kim, where in Illinois?

So I'm just about to get my iui. They asked me this time to place the donor sperm in my bra to thaw out!! I thought they were kidding? But no! Good lord I hope it doesn't spill!!
-
The don't have another way to thaw it??? I never heard of that!
-
Well it worked. My body heat thawed it out in ten mins. The procedure went well.) barely felt it this time.
