I?m having my first IUI on Tuesday or Wednesday next week and would love to hear from others who may be in the same boat or anyone who?s had success with this procedure. My previous two cycles I?ve been doing the injections along with timed BD and I was supposed to do another but we?re trying to move things along. I?ve had 13 days of Menopur FSH (the last 4 days double doses) and I?ve been needing 13-15 days the other months, so my scan tomorrow should be good and I?m expecting to pick up my HCG. Does anyone know the usual length of time between trigger and IUI? My clinic told me to go in the following day but I thought it was supposed to be more like 48 hours after.
I was told the procedure itself is quick and painless, just like having a smear. I hope that?s true! Can anyone put me at ease? Do you have to lie still afterwards, or is it straight in and out?
I am quite eager to get it done as trying something new always gets me daydreaming, so I?m very excited. But realistically the odds aren?t very high so I?m trying not to get too carried away. This TTC stuff really is messing with my head! Help please any advice/words of encouragement/buddies would be appreciated.
