    Hey Future_Mom!

    IUI went good! We find out if it was succeful on the 22nd.
    Good luck to you and your partner in your first IUI!
    My advise would be to try and not stress yourself out. Ive tried my best to keep myself as busy as possible.. Longest 2 weeks of our lives! Lol the procedure is pretty quick.. You feel a couple little pinches.. But it's over before you know it. =]

    Thank you Future_Mom!!! I ran out of patience and have taken 2 tests!!! Both positive! But I'm trying to be calm, just incase the tests are false positives from the trigger shot I took 2 weeks ago. Only 2 more days till the blood test at the Drs!!!

    Good luck to u ladies!!!
    Just remember :it is ALL worth it.
    My partner and I have been together over ten years. I had my first IUI 5 years ago. Four tries:nothing. It turned out I had uterine fibroids. Had the surgery . Went in a couple weeks after and like magic : we got pregnant. I almost gave up on 5th attempt, and here we are now trying to have a little sibling for our precious daughter. Only bad thing: I didn't buy enough vials. Now I am in search of spare vials for donor 13251:/

    Wendy! So happy you successed! We just found out yesterday.. WE ARE PREGNANT! My partner and I have been together 6 years, and what an amazing journey to share together! We are so excited! We think we're gonna wait 2 years till trying for a sibling. But that's a fear of mine is not being able to use the sake donor. We now have 1 vial left for next time.. Hopefully he donates again before then.
