Hi my miracle?

Saw your thread and couldnt leave and not post. Hopefully this little helping hand will be all that those little need and you will have your BFP before you know it. I personally dont have a positive story but I have seen quite a few girls around that do have the perfect outcome from IUI so heres hoping you join those ranks .

Anyway, wishing you the best of luck with it x

Hi There

I am a positive IUI story, although it took until our third round to fall pregnant. I was super nervous at first about the injections, but they're really not so bad. Most of them are a really fine needle, you barely feel it.

I htink the worst part is the actual insemination, as it's like a pap smear so a bit embarressing and uncomfortable, but by the second time I knew to bring my ipod so I could zone out to my favourite music. You have to site there for 15 mins afterwards so it was good to have music while I tried to relax. If oyu have any specific questions feel free to ask.

lily dust and kyliealysha...thanks for you replies!

kyliealysha......can i ask what was the problem in regards to fertility in your case?
ours is mainly male factor ,abnormal morphology , and our FS did not suggest IUI at first,only after we got a second opinion we pushed her and said we wanted IUI as its much less invasive. si i am not sure if we are doing the right thing.
i saw the nurse this afternoon , she has given me all the injections and instructions. i got my periods today,and for the first time in the last 18 months i was happt to have it.....just so i cud start with the IUI cycle!

did you have any sideeffects with these drugs?
oh yes...ipod is a very good option,i wiil remember to take tht? did you husband come along with you on that day?
