Going from IVF to IUI...
Our IVF dr said my husband's sperm count has drastically changed...from 5 mil to 55 mil. We were shocked. He now said trying IUI is an option. I'll be trying with my next period, Nov, so just wasn't sure of the expected dr visits, blood drawls & ultrasounds. With IVF it was constant, every 2-3 days. Also, what were your successful meds for your BFP?

@jenn...So sorry for your loss. Thank you for all the info. I hope you get your BFP soon hun.✨
What we did on our BFP during IUI
I used the following:
Follistim + clomid for stimulation
Lupron for trigger shot
Progesterone during LP
Wobenzyme N
Selenium
Utericalm to increase implantation rates
My husband had decent sperm counts the last IUI we did 24mil post wash but we wanted to up our odds the best we could so he started testoFX which doubled his sperm count post wash.
I got my BFP, but sadly miscarried at 6 weeks
@lil-lass...thanks. I have a HSG scheduled for Monday to check my tubes. Going to ask questions about my protocol then.
@Mel...thank you and good luck for baby #2!
@rebecs...he hasn't taken any meds. The only thing we can think of is he has a medical issue with colitis(gastric disorder) and the medication may have been effecting his count. I hope you get your BFP. I'll look for your updates!
Wow! That's an incredible change! Was he taking meds?? I've had 2 iui so far. The first was unmediated for me because (as far as we know) I don't have any issues. 2nd I took clomid and had 2 good sized follies but unfortunately that wasn't our round either. Starting gonal f shots tomorrow ready for round 3! With my 2 previous rounds, dr has done ultra sounds both times to check the size of the eggs. Both times she gave me a gondatrophine trigger shot to induce ovulation so she could time the iui better. Then on the day of the iui I had another ultrasound to check everything was working as it should. Hoping this time is it for us both! GL xx
Congrats - that's great news! IUI is a lot less involved than IVF. If you ovulate on your own, sometimes they don't even monitor your ovulation with ultrasounds.
I conceived my son with clomid and IUI. I took clomid, called the clinic when I had an LH surge, my husband and I went into the clinic the next day for the IUI and that was it.
I'm doing round one of IUI this cycle for baby #2. Good luck to you!
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
We just did our second 50mg clomid+trigger shot+iui cycle. There was a scan at the beginning of the cycle to rule out cysts, 1-2 scans to check follicles, and then iui was scheduled for 36 hours after the trigger shot. I had 2 follicles the first cycle and 3 follicles the second cycle. Good luck!!
