Day of 1st IUI - positive OPK?

Question

Today is the day I've been waiting for! I took clomid CD5-CD9. I went in for a Sono on CD11, doctor saw two follicles, one on each side. I took my trigger shot yesterday at 2pm, which was CD12. I took opk CD11 and CD12 and barely even saw a test line. Last night I took a test at 9:30pm, barely a test line. I seriously thought I somehow missed it, since I had had pain CD9-CD11 and then nothing on the CD12. But I took an opk this morning at 8:20am (CD13) and there it is!! I think this is positive. It has to be, since this is the only line I have seen in the past three days!
I am scheduled for the IUI at 4pm today. My question is is this good timing for the IUI? I so want this to work! I know it sometimes takes a few tries, but I'm so excited!

Answer

I'm concerned about timing too. My doctor schedules my IUIs two days after trigger. For example, I'm supposed to trigger tomorrow night (Saturday) then get the IUI Monday morning. Do you think I'll miss the window?? Last month, I had major ovulation pain in the middle of the night after triggering, which is what in worried might happen this time.. that suggests to me that I'm getting the IUI after ovulation. What do y'all think?

Answer

Yes, it is great timing. Good luck!

Answer

Today is perfect timing! My doctor always said you wanted to do an IUI within 24 hours of getting a positive OPK. I got a positive OPK around 9-ish one morning and went in at 5 that afternoon.
We tried two IUI's before getting a positive on the 3rd IUI. Try not to get discouraged (easier said than done).
Good luck!!
