IUI/SO-IUI: Anyone?


Hi saralyn, sure or not 5 to 10 mins only? I heard must be ard at least 20 mins.
Probably, like Dian Dang, I will kiasu a bit and will request to rest 20 mins bah... :p
 
From a book that i am reading"What to expect before you are expecting":
It takes 30 min for sperm to reach the fallopian tube after entering vaginal canal. It takes another 15-20 min for the sperm to find the egg and start attempting penetration.And it take 20 min for the winning sperm to drill its head thru the tough shell surrounding the egg and offically get lucky.
 
Hm.. Ya.. The most is 10 mins. After that I went out n waited for awhile more to see dr to look at the washed specimen results..

I am very curious.. The count is higher after washed.. How come?

Oh no.. After reading dian tang post, it seem like you really need to rest longer.. Oh no.. Sigh...
 
Saralyn, stay positive and happy. Avoid agressive exercises if possible. walking is fine.
Good Luck!!
I may be doing IUI next month. got to rest the body for least a month for the next cycle.
 
I will try too! Listen to music.. Watch tv.. Do my work.. Need to distract me from all the thinking during these 2 weeks..

Good luck to you for your next cycle!
 
Morning all. Dian_tang, where will u be doing your IUI? Im probably doing it this cycle. Im waiting for AF to clear first....
Shd I continue with acupuncture for the IUI?
Im eating clomid and Conceive well, and now feeling quite heaty, a feeling of sore throat.
 
Morning All, 4th day of jabbing. One more day before my first scan. Feeling very anxious on the outcome.

Saralyn, you should take leave and rest at home for a couple of days instead of going back to work immediately. All the best for 2ww.
 
Morning ladies..

Hope.. I am actually working from home.. =) that's a good thing about my job or rather my boss.. He let us work from home..

You are taking alot of jabs? Are you on clomid too? or purely jabs?
 
Saralyn, what job / company are u in? So nice work from home...

Yes yes... must learn to relax. I get so stress up and anxious so easily. That y i been listening to music the whole time and alot of reading on entertainment gossips to keep my mind from thinking.
 
Dian_tang, I think my ovulation date should be around end of March. So should be around there bah... :D Cant wait for the IUI. Feeling excited... he..he.. hopefully it's going to be successful.
 
Peggy.. Im working in a US mnc. i guess their working culture in US MNC is working from home.. We do not have a fixed desk in office.. =)
 
Haha.. but need alot of discipline to work at home..

I was packing all the papers from yesterday and realised my husband SA was quite bad (rapid motility) compared to the last test he took. Sigh... But the doc was saying not bad results.. Sigh.. Only 2nd day and I was so sad already..
 
Hope: u mean at the clinic? the nurse raised the bed up so my pelvic was elevated.. then i came home and tried to lie down (flat or side) as much as possible..
 
Saralyn, dont be sad. Think positively and assume that the IUI is successful. Start "talking" to your baby to give yourself the positive energy. Just be happy and calm.
 
i am trying too. Whole day I on the radio or tv.. trying to distract myself.. Now boiling the red date and longan drinks..

anyway idea to help to improve the motility? it was a sudden shock for me coz he did not have any motility problem previously..
 
Saralyn, I also dont know. My DH's troops also have problems. I put him on vitamin pills (E, C, B complex) everyday now and add Walnut to his diet too. He also go to acupuncture. Hopefully it will work.
 
The doc suggested to take vit e and b12.. And he has been taking for 3+ months.. I tot I will see improvement but nope.. I read in other thread about mega men multivitamins from GNC is not bad. Am asking him to go get n take that now..

Which area that you dh's troop is not doing well?
 
Saralyn, all DH's result is no good. Sigh...
sad.gif
Troops count is low. Motility is low too. Morphology is zero! I dont quite understand how morphology can be zero and what is the impact for the IUI or TTC. When we went through the report, the doctor didnt say anything about the morphology part. I guess he didnt want us to worry unnecessarily.
 
Ok ok.. My husband has very different results in all the tests he took. One thing which is consistent is his 3% morphology. The first doc said don't have to worry with 3% but I am worry coz anything below 4 is considered as infertile.. His count has improved from the first first test which is a good thing.. But the latest one was the motility. Overall, he is still above the mark but not for the rapid portion. He has alot for the sluggish category..
 
thanks peggy.. is nice to come here to chat with you all.. i was talking to my husband and he also asked me to stop worrying so much! be happy.. =)

yesterday on my way home, the radio in the cab was playing "When you believe".. This is the song that brought my husband and myself back together and got married.. I hope is a good sign and God was actually telling me something.. =)
 
Hi sarahlyn

Thanks Back from scan. Not gOod size so can't go on with iui tomorrow. Next week I wld be out of town so slim chance. Doc said flu medicine probably delayed the ovulation.
sad.gif
good luck to u too. Be happy
 
Hi Jessica, you will be out of town for whole of next week? Maybe can cut down on your trip and be back in time for iui?

Hope: thanks! Am very grateful for my husband.. He took a day leave to accompany me even tot I insist I will be fine alone.
 
Hi hope

I did not use any injection. Doc told us to try natural iui so no pills or injection on my own. Just told me would give me injection if egg is 16mm or so. For us, timing is always the problem. So have to go on mon again to scan and jab. If ok wld iui on tues n wed I go Malaysia till fri and that wld be over.

Sarahlyn
Your hubby is sweet and supportive. So far after we changed doc, doc is near my home so I wld go alone n meet my friends after that. Last time when I go kk n Thomson he wld go with me. It is very important for support as the journey is not easy. Doc said if ok then tues iui.. Hubby said he wld take urgent leave so that can go doc. Next month he is going Europe for 3 weeks and I can't follow him. Doc was lamenting so difficult to meet the time.

But doc also said to press on. Many succeeded. So will we.
 
Jessica, how long have you been trying? So true, i also think time is the most important factor. We only have one chance every month.sigh
 
OK OK.. you still got afew more days for them to grow big big and proceed with IUI on Tuesday...

Yesterday at the fertility center, a korean/jap woman was giving her DH specimen for washing to do IUI. The counter girl told her her husband must be there to submit else they will not process to wash. I think her husband cannot make it and she was crying there. So sad.. Went through so much already and at the last part, it did not go tro smoothly..
 
Hi Jessica, my hubby also always travel . We faced the same thing. U may consider freezing the sperm if the hosp have this service .
 
Hi hope

Actually we started to be more serious last sept when we went to see gyna. Before that was talk only. Yup time must be on our aide and we must be relax.

Yup sarahlyn be happy and relax. It would be easier. Good luck to u. Hope it would grow cos was sick last month. So cycle delayed. Haiz.

Hello dian tang, thanks for suggesting. Would ask doc when I see her again. Hers is clinic so don't know if she can get hospital to store...
 
Morning ladies, did my final jab this morning, tmr will be the scan. i pray that im responding well to the medication.
 
Morning ladies,

Anyone doing IUI this saturday? We can be cycle buddy.

For trigger shot, which brand you all got? Mine is Ovidrel this round. Previously doc gave me Pregnyl.

During IUI, did doc ask you all to have full bladder before the IUI?

Sorry, seems to ask a lot of questions.
 
Hi Dragon.. Welcome..

I just did mine on Wednesday... I got Pregnyl for the trigger shot and Yes, you need to have full bladder for IUI..
