Forum home Getting pregnant Long term TTC & infertility

Back off Hols & IUI has begun!!!! UPDATE 2 !!!!!

Hi Ladies
Well i'm back from Holidays had a fab time!!!!! I had my baseline scan yesterday, my uterus is retroverted (tiliting Back) which i didn't know until yesterday & i have several follicles on my left ovary 6mm and under and several on my right ovary 5m and under!!!! They also found a 1cm hemorragic cyst on my right ovary but they said not to worry about that so trying not too..... Started the dreaded 1st of the injections this afternoon which were no where near as bad as i expected so i've got 2 a day from tomorrow on wards until clinic tells me to stop, so next week we will be really busy got scan's on Mon 26th & Wed 28th then hopefully insemmination on Friday 30th Oct in the morning so i'm willing at least one follicle (prefferably 2) to grow big and strong 17mm's is the goal!!!! i was getting really impatient for this treatment to start now i'm really nervous in case i'm disappointed again but trying to keep my PMA up......
Hope all you lovely ladies are doing well? sending sticky baby dust to all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:\)

  • Hi Sianni

    Glad to see you back & that you had a great holiday!
    Will be keeping everything crossed for you so that your lovely follicles grow big n strong!
    Ive had a few wobbles over the past few days after keeping up the PMA,so i know sometimes its hard. We have just got to keep looking on the bright side,(easier said than done i know).
    Sending you loads of supersticky babydust & follicle growing magic! xxx
  • Oh wishing you loads of luck sianni. I can understand your anxiety - it's perfectly natural to feel that way. have you got anything you can do to help you relax and remain positive over next few weeks (e.g., acupuncture, reflexology, beuaty treatments etc)? Keep us updated xx
  • Thanks For the replies Ladies!!! TBD i'm considering reflexology my auntie is having it done at the moment and apparently she's brilliant but i've got psoriasis on my feet so bit embaressed to get my feet out for her so we'll see, PMA is better today had my two jabs this afternoon hurt today but not too badly......looking forward to my scan on monday to see how the follicles are coming on fingers n toes crossed lol!!!! hope everyone has had a good day xxxxxx
  • Hi Sianni, Great to hear you've got started - it's so good to feel you're doing something positive at last, isn't it?!

    I wouldn't worry about your feet - I'm sure an experienced reflexologist will have seen worse than a bit of psoriasis and won't bat an eyelid. I've only tried reflexology once, and she talked all the way through it, which for me made it much less relaxing, but my SIL had just one session after TTC for 16 months and the next month she was pregnant - she swears it was the reflexology that did it!

    Keeping everything crossed for some good sized follicles and successful treatment. xx
  • Good luck honey, im starting iui in jan, so really looking to see some positive expereinces!

    Im also thinking about reflexology, i figure if it helps the cycles i'd much rather pay a little bit extra if it means it increases my chances and i then dont have to fund further IVF cycles. (plus its nice to get pampered!)

    also thinking about starting yoga to help with breathing and relaxation.. anybody else doing it?

    Good Luck again honey, fingers crossed for you

  • Sianni

    Best of luck with the treatment, and that's great the injections were too bad.

    I would recommend reflexology. I had regular treatments in 2008, and got a BFP (which sadly didn't last). I have started them again, and really don't worry about your feet - they are professionals!

    Fingers crossed for you.
  • Hi Ladies

    Hope the PMA's holding up for everyone!!! Well i had my scan today after starting injections last week (have been enjoying some side effects nightsweats along with spots and being really bloated)but that being said everything is looking as if it's on track i have one 11mm follicle and one 10mm follicle, and the lining of my womb is at 7mm with 3bands which is perfecto thickness, so increased my dosage for today's injections and another scan Wed morning to see how they are doing ooooooh hopefully friday is D day all going well...........am feeling really positive at the moment still apprehensive and nervous aswell though, trying not to get toooo excited that this could be my month

    well that's my ramble for tonight will keep you posted on how it goes!!!!
