What day should I have IUI?

[Lou Lou]

Thanks Leasha!

I just rang my FS and am going in for a scan at 12.30 today so I guess that will give me a definite answer. DH is coming too so if I can have IUI, he'll be able to do his bit. BBL with news

Well my scan showed that the follicle is still there so I haven't ovulated. I was given the trigger shot to bring on ovulation.

DH has to takes his swimmers in at 11am tomorrow then I collect them at 1.15pm after they've been washed, take them to my FS and he does the IUI. Let's hope this works...

Sounds a bit complicated there... the sperm aren't prepared in the same place as your FS is doing the IUI? Good luck with it all, Lou Lou, hoping to hear good news in two weeks time!

It's a 2 minute drive round the corner so I have to play delivery driver. The nurse said to keep the sample warm and said in the bra was a good place

Well I've just had the IUI and it all went well. It was quite surreal really (DH wasn't there which was the strangest thing as I had assumed getting UTD generally involved him, rather than just a representation of himself in a jar) and if it wasn't such a serious matter, it would be quite comical (I thought this as I was hunting madly for a parking space with the windows wound up on friend's boiling hot car to insulate the vial shoved down my bra).

Still, I got there in the end and it didn't hurt any more than a pap smear does. Now the waiting game begins. I guess I'll ovulate today or tomorrow so I can test in about 10 days or so (because of my short LP).

Thanks again to everyone for their advice

I O-ed last night so hopefully this will mean the IUI was timed perfectly
