IUI #6 is done!

All right, it's done.  My DH's count was 92 million highly motile sperm post-wash this time.  That's a record even for him.  The nurses were bubbling over about my E2 level and his sperm numbers.  So, hopefully it will all come together and *mean* something, right?

Not much else to say.  I'm trying to stay open and positive.  I can't get out of my head, though, the thought that if it doesn't work this time with these numbers then IUI is just not going to work for us and it's time to move on.

OK, those thoughts aren't helping. 


I'll come back to the positive -- with these numbers, this has to be the best chance we've ever had.  Now it's just time to wait and start the joy that is a 2WW full of gooey suppositories! :)

    Good luck! What does E2 tell you anyway? Is it related to the number of mature follicles?

    Such fab numbers =) I know the 2WW is impossibly hard, especially when you do IUI's or IVF had so much information before O but then it goes radio silent. Hope you can plan some relaxing, fun things to keep you mind occupied. Wishing you tons of luck and sending all the baby dust I can muster!

    Those are awesome numbers! I bragged to my husband about how good your numbers are, in fact : ) He seemed to think it was a little weird for me to be telling him about some other guy's sperm count, but he's rooting for you guys too.

    I just wanted to say I'm thinking of you, and will be for the next couple of weeks. The upside to trying to keep the bad thoughts away is that if it's going to work, it's going to work no matter what's going on in your head. So stay positive for you. But know that whatever is happening is happening anyway, and you can't hurt it by thinking anything that occurs to you.
