I did my OPK test today, and at first (2 min in) it said no...then when I looked at it later, cause I got distracted it said yes....so I called the Dr.
she said to do another test this afternoon/evening, and if it is possitive to come in for the IUI tomorrow at 1:45.

So last month my OPK was very distinct...the reference line was hardly visible when I had my surge...but this month they are pretty much the same...in fact neither one is extremely dark.....so am I o.k. to do the IUI tomorrow? or not? I'm hoping so , because I already took the day off of work..

My right ovary is aching like crazy, and my CM is egg white consistency, so my body is telling me I'm there....

I guess I am just very anxious....so any advice..and all the prayers I can get, would be appreciated.

I would think so....can you ask for a vag u/s to check that you released the egg?

I don't know what that is? an ultrasound??? I guess I could. I talked to my DR. about the concern.....she said as long as the test appeared positive, that we would do it tomorrow. I'm trusting her.

Oh, and isn't it actually better to do the IUI before the release of the egg?

I would think that they would be able to do an u/s to see how everything is progressing. Good luck!

My doctor does IUI before the egg is actually released. With our IUI as soon as I get a positive test I call and that day is BD, the next day is IUI and the third day is BD again. And I usually ovulate on the third day after the LH surge.

In exactly one hour, I should arrive at the DR. office, where they will begin to prepare the semen for the IUI....Hope everyone is sending up lots of prayers for me....

I still have a slight cold, but am praying that it will o.k. I took the morning off work to stay home and rest, and I really do feel a little better.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
