First IUI done! (Hopefully at the right time)

Dana • Wed, Nov 18 • We have one amazing 5yo IVF baby. 41 and TTC #2. After 4 retrievals with 6 failed transfers, we're doing a few Hail Mary IUIs in Feb/March to use up our donor sperm, then closing the book on TTC 🤞

After many trials and tribulations, we finally had our first <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> this afternoon.

For the first time ever, there is a NON-ZERO chance of pregnancy!!! Woooo!

I would be soo happy, except I have this awful feeling that I ovulated last night :( I was lying in bed, feeling great, thinking about today, then I started to get sharp right side cramps. Like, ovulation cramps. Very like :( and this morning I had a little spotting. Damn.

Anyway, when I went to my appt all doom and gloom, they were like "no no, your LH is still high, it's all good". They didn't do an ultrasound, so I'll never know for sure if we did the <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a> in time, but I'm electing to assume they're right, that it wasn't a complete waste of money, and hope for the best.

Send me some baby dust, girlies!
