Oh dear Annie78, sorry to hear that. I am nearly 9wks. There were two follicles but we aren't sure how many eggs were inside each follicle but two eggs were clearly fertilised. Don't give up hope - specialists perform miracles and hold onto the positiveness you have.
Good luck and just take it one step at a time. :)

That's amazing KMosko, congrats on your twins. :heart:
So wonderful to hear!
How many follicles did you have?
How far are you now?

I unfortunately started my period last night... So first IUI did not work for us :cry:
Not giving hope though! Hopefully we can start again on this cycle.

Hi. I started the AI process earlier this year and took Femara tablets. Not many side effects except I ate lots! My hubby and I went through the process and there was a 7% chance. Well it worked and we expecting twins. So hang in there and know even if the chance is slum, you could be that 7%. Good luck and wish you all the best.

Just though I would give you ladies an update.

Done with meds... YAY.... side affects weren't too bad, but I suppose I was on a very low dosage.

Went for appointment this morning, CD10, 2 big follicles, 14.2mm and 14.6mm... go back on Sunday for another ultra sound to see how they have developed further.

Very excited :)

Are these good measurements for the follicles?

Thanks for the info girls.

@Annie
Hubby's semen analysis in September 2012 came back with 0 sperm and last Monday we did a testicular biopsy to see if there was any production but there is none. It's called testicular azoospermia.
The initial diagnosis was much harder to take than the results on Monday as this time we have had a year and a half to prepare for the worst whereas in the beginning we had no idea this kind of thing even existed.
