IUI this morning
IUI went ok this morning. They told me not to empty my bladder like I normally do and that made it a little easier. There was no hard belly pushing or tenaculum, just some pressure and bad cramping. I took a Tylenol w/ codeine beforehand, and I think that helped take the edge off. Afterwards we looked at my lining and it had thickened a little bit. The first two times she measured it at almost 7, the second two at just over 5, so who knows? Either way they didn’t seem TOO concerned about it. It’s not optimal, but it’s doable. Then we looked quickly at my left ovary and it looks like I just started to ovulate – yay!! Instead of a perfect circle follicle it was this oblong thing and they said it looked like the egg was probably released. I think this made our timing just about perfect so I’m pretty excited about that. Especially because we had some “backup” from Monday night and we’ll be adding some more tomorrow probably. So now we wait!
I am thinking very positive egg meet sperm, sperm meet egg, sperm attack egg, egg attack uterus thoughts. I figure visualization can't hurt!
