First IUI cycle coming up and I'm nervous!

Hi everyone,
I am new to this process of IUI and medications, and am feeling a bit nervous going into my first cycle. We tried home insemination a couple of years ago, but didn't get pregnant. Then I had all kinds of health and work issues, so we put everything on hold. Now I'm all healthy again and have a stable job with benefits, so we are back at it, but doing things a little differently. Since I'm 39 1/2, I am eager to get pregnant while I still can, but also cautious about the risks and possibility of not being able to get pregnant before my body decides that shop is closed.
Right now, I'm waiting for AF so we can get started. I'll be doing clomid 100mg CD3-7 and ovidrel trigger on CD 11 or 12, then IUI 36 hours later. We picked donor 4414, as he has some physical characteristics similar to my wife's. I'm curious how the process has gone for others, and nervous about feeling like crap when I start the meds.
I'd love to know if others have had success with low ovarian reserve at "advanced maternal age" and how long it took (how many cycles). Baby dust to everyone who's TTC!
