Any first time IUI success stories?

I'll probably have my IUI on Monday. I'm usually a positive person or try to be and I have this feeling that it will not work this round and I'll have use more PTO than what I've taken for blood work and scans. Much rather request that time off when I'm actually pregnant. 😩😩😩 Thanks for listening to me rant.

Early pregnancy and asprin

So iv jusy found out I'm 4 weeks pregnant, but recently 2 months ago I had my 4th MC and someone told me now that I'm pregnant to start using asprin, but others are telling me not to use asprin as it can interfere with implantation..

Subcutaneous Vs. Intramuscular Shots

So far in my IVF journey, I’ve only had to do subcutaneous injections. I’m scared to do the intramuscular shots, but it is on the horizon now that I’m getting into a transfer cycle. For those that have done both, honestly, how much worse is the intramuscular shots versus subcutaneous as far as pain and such. Pleas...

Line eyes?

Got my IUD out a few weeks ago as we were ready to try for #2. Doc told me it could take up to 3 months for my body to regulate again so it may not happen immediately. Am I hallucinating or do you see what I see?

Medicated FET

If you had a medicated FET and they gave you a tentative date for transfer, did it end up being that day for you or did it change at all? I’m curious if it’s pretty much set in stone or if it could be later depending on ovulation.
