Please let me know if your IUI is successfull and I hope it is. I just had my 5th cycle cancelled after taking over $1OO0 in meds because I did not respond as well as they had hoped. Anyway, I would like to use the same donor you are and wionder if you had success. Good luck I know the 2WW can be a bear.
Im sorry to read your post. Keep postive, and dont give up! The information I was given on this donor was that he has had pregnancies, less than 5. Kinda vague I know, thats why I was hoping to get more info. When I went in for my IUI my Doc and his nurse were very impressed with the specimen, they even showed it under the scope to my husband and myself. Amazing! Im keeping my fingers crossed, since my IUI i have had all the symptoms of AF. I didnt use any meds. I will keep you posted, thank you and best of luck to you too!
Since you were not on meds, how did you time your IUI? I got pregnant with my daughter on an unmedicated cycle, and we will be trying for Baby #2 next month, so I am always curious as to how others time their IUIs when successful.
mrandmrswhite- I timed my ovulation by: my cycle is 28 days, i started testing using the digital ovulation test on day 12 (counting day 1 first day of my period), on day 13 i got my happy face early am and at 1:30 that same afternoon I went in for the IUI.
Feb 8- started period Feb 20- positive ovulation AM and IUI PM Mar 3- blood test- progesterone level 37 Mar 5- 5 positive preg tests
I didnt use any meds, i just maintained my normal daily routine, except i stopped drinking all caffiene and alcohol.
vhermes, that is great! That is basically how I timed my IUIs when I got pregnant with my daughter, except I was testing multiple times per day. I got a positive in the evening on Day 13 (after previously negative tests earlier in the day), so I had IUIs on Days 14 and 15. Were you testing once a day or more than once a day?
I tested only in the AM. My IUI was done in the afternoon it happen to be a Friday and his office is closed on the weekends, I could have waited til Monday but I went with my gut feeling. Im happy I did, I think Monday would have been to late for me.
