we are on our first month of IUI

started clomid yesterday but the whole thing is really starting to get to me **** me

i have a perfect cycle ovulate naturally no problems can be found in blood tests etc sperm tests fine but not getting pregnant so why do I need the drugs for a IUI cycle

has anyone done a natural IUI cycle with scans etc to still get the day right, I think I want to stop the drugs ask some more questions... no sorry what I really want is to be pregnant without any of this crap

so over it and advise would be great

heh overit, yep me too, I ovulate perfectly, no problems with me or hubby the only thing that they ever found was very mild endo, but I had a lap and the FS said that it was all fixed. I have no idea why its not working.
So we did 1 natural IUI with no drugs and on my scan I had 1 perfect egg, then we did an IUI with 25mg of Clomid and on my scan I had 3 eggs but still no BFP, so now I am on my third and final IUI again with 25mg clomid.
I think the problem with IUI is the chances are very low each time, if you take clomid the percentage goes up. I also did not want to take clomid, I just thought I had no need for it, but after I saw 3 eggs on scan instead of 1 then I realised that its only increasing my chances, so I was happy to go again with clomid this time, so will see what happens.
The choice is yours at the end of the day, so whatever your happy with, I do understand exactly what your going through though as I was adamant I did not want drugs, I also got a few side effects the first time I took clomid, I had a bit of fever and bad headaches for a few days, however this stopped quite quickly, and fingers crossed I am half way through taking clomid this cycle and I have had no side effects so far. Good luck with your IUI whatever you decide.:goodvibes:

spoke to fs today after a bad night and morning of tears on the way to work

the clomid has gone for the time being going to try a natural cycle for the first round and hope that my body gets it **** together

clomid made me feel like crap i never get emotional with my cycles but with clomid I was all over the place

i am hoping for a BFP first time around as we have been through enough this year as we had an ectopic at the start of the year I think enough is enough its just time to get what we want just have life easy for awhile
is that to much to ask for
