IUI success stories

Hi all, **Please only write success stories or success with any of the questions I ask. It helps with my mental health, anxiety and stress.** I just had my first IUI completed yesterday. I took clomid for 5 days. And on day 10, they performed an ultra sound and found 3 mature follicles. Two on my right, 1 being 20mm and the other 14 mm. The left side had one that was 13 mm. I was then cleared and took the trigger shot. came back the next day for the transfer. I was hoping to hear success stories on people who had successful IUIs as I tend to get in my head. Also, curious about size and number of follicles. What was your mature follicle count and did it result in multiple pregnancies? They did warn me that we may have multiple pregnancies, which my husband and I will welcome with open arms. Lastly if anyone has any tips for the two week wait, I’d love to hear. I’m doing acupuncture to help with fertility and stress management.

The tww is the worst. Feels like 2 months 😆. Had mine done on 1/23. Got a positive 10 days after my trigger. Just waiting for my ultrasound and to see the heartbeat.

I don't have a success story yet. Both those follicle sizes seem good. Especially the 20mm. My follicles are usually in the 14-18mm range at that day 11 ultrasound. I had an IUI with 4 mature follicles once and still didn't end up pregnant, much less with multiples. So I don't think the risk of multiples is super high.

The TWW is hellish!! I wasn’t told my follicle sizes (maybe a difference between healthcare systems) but me and my wife were successful on our second round of IUI As for the TWW I spent the whole time either scouring threads on Reddit about implantation symptoms and trying not to test early 🙈 but I also found cross stitching and hobbies like that great for distracting me Good luck!!

I'm in my TWW for my second IUI! I did my 5 days of clomid, had my IUI last Friday and now waiting! Baby dust for both of us!!

@Kaitlin you’re closer to knowing. Hope it works for both of us 💕

@Ellen thank you for this! I wasn’t sure if to do another round or if this one didn’t work.

@Jamaka how exciting! Hope everything turns out wonderfully

HI! I had great success with IUI (after TTC for a year). I got pregnant after my first round. I did 2.5 mg of Letrozole, trigger, IUI, and progesterone. I read online & decided to test out my trigger. So I tested starting 5 days after iui (with positives from trigger). Got my first true negatives 7 & 8 days after IUI. 9 days after IUI I got my first positive. I’ve been taking progesterone, and finishing up at 12 weeks. I’m currently 10.5 weeks along. Good luck!! Feel free to message me if you have specific questions!! I had 2 mature follicles (1 in each side) each measuring around 17 mm. But having a singleton!

@Jamaka omg we see twins! We had our first IUI 1/23 and got a positive test 9/10 days later! Waiting for our first ultrasound on 2/28! Congrats!

@Mary yep exact same for us!! I'm hoping for twins as well. Keep me posted my first ultrasound is the 22nd and it couldn't come any slower lol.

Hoping for a success story here soon. Three follicles 20, 18, 15. Trigger tonight and IUI Sunday. Hopefully the ladies that commented last week are able to circle back with their success story soon. See y’all in two-ish weeks 🤞🏽 Baby dust! ✨

I am in the same boat as you! I’m trying to be patient and calm. I had three mature follicles (20, 18, 14) on one side. He didn’t see the other ovary on the final scan and said that he wasn’t worried about that. I was on 2.5mg of letrozole pills, 4 shots, and then the trigger shot. He saw fertile mucus that indicates I’m ovulating properly. I go in for my test on the 9th! I’m really hoping to get lucky on our first IUI. Baby dust to us all!
