IUI and thin lining?

I need some advice and info ladies:) i went for my ultrasound today to check my follicles for my IUI. When i went for my diagnostic cycle last month the tech said my lining looked good-but didnt give me a #, and i had 1 follicle at 21 and another about 9. This month, the nurse said my lining is a little thin-6.5- and they want it to be 8 at the time of my IUI. She did say it should thicken before i do ovulate. I dont know if there is anything i can do to help it along or something i should avoid doing?? I have two follies this month, one is 17 and the other is 15.5-which is good:) Based on my prior cycles i usually ovulate about day 14/15. Right now i am at day 11. This is my first IUI so i am trying to stay as calm and relaxed as possible, but as you all know that can be a difficult task. Based on all of your experiences does it seems my #'s are promising? i started ovulating monitering today, i am worried the tests wont be accurate, or that i will mess something up lol. I am not doing any meds or trigger shots. I am 31, all my blood work and tests came back good from last month- i had the HSG on Sept 21st. They are going to do another ultrasound when i go in for my IUI to make sure everything is favorable. I guess im just getting nervous haha :/ any advice or experiences from you amazing ladies will definitely help me feel better! :) Thanks!!!!

    Not sure what my lining ever was they never gave me the numbers just said it looked good. I know that goingto acupuncture can help. When i finally got pregnant i did back to back iui's acupuncture and I ate pineapple core for 5 days after the iui. Ask me whati think really helped? The acupuncture. My acupuncturist gave me te book the infertility cure to read. I found out what was wrong and I followed the diet prescribed for my issues. The next month I was pregnant. I'm not sure there is anything else you can do to enrich the lining. Try to relax, take car of yourself and envision yourself pregnant!

    The will thicken it part of the process. There is nothing you can do. Your body works on the part very naturally. No to worry. Good luck n relax.
    The thickness only canes when your ready to ovulate.

    Thickness comes with ovulation

    Your only on day 11 of your cycle. The ladies are right it will thicken up as the days go by. Best thing is to relax and let nature do its thing.
