questions about sperm information/chances of pregnancy

I had a IUI on thursday 7/17/14, I was on a medicated cycle with Femara 5mg in the eveing for 1 week and Ovidrel 36 hrs before IUI. My first iui was not successful (natural) and I wanted to post the information of both donors I used to get some advice.

FIRST DONOR- Post Thaw : 0.5 mls. Sperm Concentration: 38million/ml

Total Count: 19 million. Motility: 55%. Progression: Slow.

Since this was my first one I was very hopeful that it would still work, obviously it did not... ): the new donor we used, the numbers are definitley greater. It was a medicated cycle with a few good follicles the morning of my ovidrel. Here are the stats of the second donor!!

POST THAW- Volume: 0.55MLS Sperm concentration: 63million/mls

Total Count: 35 Million Motility: 57% Progression: Rapid

As you can see the numbers are way better and Im hoping for a BFP in the next couple weeks! I just need to know anyones advice, some words of encouragement and if any of these numbes matter. Thanks in advance!

    Well, the numbers are stellar, no doubt. My first few IUIs didn't take but my last three did (unfortunately miscarried) but I learned that it wasn't so much about the numbers but the body being ready. I started having more luck after doing acupuncture weekly. I also think it's a matter of luck because my first IUIs were with donors with great numbers and had no luck. The other two donors I did get pg by had similar numbers.
