2 ww is over and have some things to share from my past 2 experiences

I've just completed my second cycle undergoing IUI and I was very pleasantly surprised to get the phone call today that I'm pregnant! I was 99% positive that I was not pregnant because all of my symptoms were EXACTLY the same as they always are before I start my period and everything felt the same as during my first failed IUI cycle but fortunately that wasn't the case! I wanted to share this with those of you who are still in the 2ww or who will be there soon. Prior to the IUI I had one follicle measuring 19 and the sperm count was 29 million - which is pretty great from what I've read. Over the past few days I had all of my traditional PMS symptoms (bloated, swollen breasts, cramps, constipation, slight moodiness). This is literally exactly what I experience every month before my period so I was really bummed out by the presence of these symptoms. It turns out my HCG level is 279, apparently anything above 50 is a good sign.
Anyhow, for those you still in the 2ww - keep the faith and positive thoughts!

It's great to hear someone account of how things are going/went. I'm so happy to hear one follicle of 19 was plenty for you to get pregnant. I'm doing a natural cycle and only had one at 18 when I triggered. I had my first IUI yesterday morning and I have a feeling the next 2 weeks will feel like forever.
Congrats again and I wish you best for the rest of your pregnancy
The pineapple trick looks interesting... Can't hurt, can it!
