Trueblue, sorry, I missed your question before. An IUI is very similar to a pap smear test in terms of the experience - usually the most uncomforable part is the insertion of the speculum. I only had one (out of six) that was a bit more unpleasant (he hit the cervix on the way through and I got some cramping). Trust me, if it were as bad as a HSG I'd never have done so many! It's usually a very quick and painless exercise, so I'm sure you'll be fine! I was usually at work less than half an hour after mine and then worked a full day same as usual.

Renee, I find I usually O a week late in the cycle after a stim cycle. FX you don't have too long to wait.

Loops, I'd imagine this wait must be agonising. I hope you've found things to distract you while you wait.

Afm, it looks like AF is here a week early. Go figure? Not sure what's going on, but I can only assume it's due to the surgery screwing up the cycle. It's just niggling at me a bit because it's weird... Other than that, everything seems to be healing nicely and we have our follow up appointment on Tuesday afternoon...
