I done my 5th cycle yesterday. I get 6 cycles on the nhs. I am hoping that i wont need the 6th cycle though.
Obviously its not worked for me yet and im not feeling too possitive , but there is lots of pics on the walls of gorgeous little babies.

Just had my baseline scan done and i have 24 follicles on my left and 25 on my right! She said its a good scan but there is a lot of follicles (but that was expected) Just waiting for a phone call to tell me how many im injecting and if it will be tonight or not. Said they will be keeping a close eye on me so not to worry about ohss.
Anyone else have that many? x

Hi
Its a really simple process.
On day 1 of my af i need to phone the hospital. This is 2 do a pregnancy test, this is done by taking blood.
They then give me clomid to take from day 2 -5
i then have to do approx 5 injections between day 5-14. I may have more it depends on my follicles.
I then get a few scans in the month and then approx day 14 thats when they do the iui.
<the day before i take a dif injection>
ON THE DAY OF THE IUI I NEED TO GO IN AT 8.45 WITH JOSHS SAMPLE.This is given to the scientists who wash and spin his wee pals to get only the good
At approx 12 noon, 24hrs after the last injection i then get this inserted into me , using a cathetar, its not sore at all.
That day my tummy normally feels a bit weird and the next day a little crampy, but this can happen with anyone when ovulating, even without iui or ivf.
really its just getting pregnant with a little bit of help.
good luck _________________ Least I have my fur babies x

Ive got no idea Faye I had my stim drugs in a pen type thing with a dial was really easy to use. All I will say is I always did 1 drug in each side of my stomach (so say down reg drug I did left Id do stims in right side then the next night reverse it so down reg was right , stim left etc)
Dont know whats going on with me and o/h this time round we keep forgetting to do my injection and end up doing it late. Last weekend we were in bed and o/h had just fallen asleep and it hit me that we hadnt done it then last night just before we were about to get in bed I remembered we'd forgotten again. Ooops. _________________ Ttc since December 2007!
