April Attempts

Hi all!
So today is my last day on Clomid, then Monday I go in for a follicle check and blood work....that's CD 11 so I'm hoping we can do the trigger shot soon after and then the IUI that week.
Who else is around this stage? I'm getting very excited!

    Hello everyone! Does anyone know if bed rest is needed after IUI ?
  • Coll217Coll217 Member Member
    From what I understand after you lay there for 20-30 minutes after the iui you are good to go on your normal day, its best to ask your doctor though :-)
    Good luck taball! I'm hoping for Wednesday too!
  • A&DHarterA&DHarter Member Member

  • Coll217Coll217 Member Member
    Thanks! IUI is a half an hour :-) dr said we had a "phenomenal" sample so fingers crossed!

    Hi Coll217!looks like we had IUI at the same date :) nurse was the one who did my IUI i wish it was the doctor but anyway how do you feel after IUI? Did mine yesterday 4/14/17 at 1 pm and I'm still cramping on and off untill now just wondering if that's normal and also my donor 4383 the volume of specimen was 0.5 ml very little I'm kinda worried about that but nurse said the volume is not matter the motile count is the most important one which is 38.8 million and also I've been holding the spicemen for about one hour b foe they call my name for IUI I'm hoping the sperm didn't die I shared to nurse about my concern but she said sperm should be fine but I'm not satisfied to her answer I picked up the sperm at the lab 11:45 I was schedule for IUI at noon but they diidnt call me until 1pm . Good luck to us :)

    Oh cool Nanayme!
    I felt ok after the IUI but a little crampy and nauseous... and not with the progesterone it the same thing. How about you? I know the tww seems to drive everyone crazy, but I may have been more anxious for all of last week then the next two!
    Or volume and motility was the same too! I guess you get what you pay for with Fairfax :-) the place I had to ship my vials also washed the iui sample again (its their standard) so I was VERY please with the motility count.
    That's weird they made you wait so long after you picked up your sample! I know that would make me anxious!
    Hope you have a great week!

    Hi Y'all! I am looking to connect with anyone who used donor 4383, specifically same sex parents. I have an awesome baby boy and would love to know everyone's stories.
