IUI Discouraged

It seems that when I read about all the BFPs they are all from IVF. We will have our 2nd round of IUI this week and I am wondering if it should be our last until we can save enough money for IVF. I have only been a DS member for a little while so maybe I have missed some IUI BFPs. Anyone??

hey, i concieved twice with iui but not with clomid with injectables. i've seen many girls at my dr's office who concieved 1st time with iui even with clomid.
its ok to try just dont waste too much time on one thing. like i did 3 iui's with clomid, then went to follistim. on my 3rd one second time around after my m/c my dr and i were discussing ivf but then i concieved again. so dont give up home.
baby dust to you.

I just wanted to let you know the IUIs do work. I was on 150mg clomid and Ovidrel (hcg) shot. I had my first IUI on August 28th and after I was told I had one good egg. I am now 9 weeks pregnant with twins. (Evidently I had an egg that was hiding because we know they are fraturnal). If you have any other questions, feel free to send me a message. Good luck and baby dust your way!

I know it is hard but try to stay positive. I have heard of sucesses with IUIs. I think that everyone is different and how their body responds to treatments. I hope that you are one of the IUI success stories. I would not do more then your RE recommends however.

    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...
