We are waiting for the 1st week of July to get my bloodwork done again because my A1C was .1 above. Hopefully this time around it will be where it should be. Any advice as to what to do as soon as I get the okay to do the IUI. We have never done this and don't know where to begin. Help!!!! Thank you

    hey Debliz we are in the same boat. first appt was the other day but AF was already too far for bloodwork. HSG scheduled next week. What state are you in? for us we have to see a social worker before any IUI/IVF can take. wishing you lots of BABY DUST!!!

    Hey
    We have been given the go ahead to do our first IUI this cycle. We will be going to our doctor on July 18 (day 12 of my cycle) for a sonogram to see how my follicles are and if they are ready they will do treatment. If they are not ready they will schedule me for day 14 or 15 of my cycle to go for treatment. We are so nervous and so excited. We are hoping this does work out for us and we are also sending you all lots and lots of BABY DUST!!!!!!!
    We are in Texas and you?

    Good luck to both of you!! We just started meds to induce my partner's period since it went MIA after gallbladder surgery in late May. We take the meds for 5 days and then wait for her period to start. Once it does we wait for ovulation and our first IUI. We can't wait to finally get started!
    We are in Texas as well DebLiz0710, up in the panhandle.

    Thanks DebLiz! We are still waiting for my partner's cycle to start. We are 10 days post provera to trigger the cycle and were told it could take up to 2 weeks. So hopefully we start this cycle any day now.

    How are things going for y'all?
