Chlomid and Follistim done, 3rd IUI tomorrow

Wow, this is a tough month for me. This is my IUI #3, first one with injectibles added to the mix.  I took the injectibles for four days (150 mg Follistim) and the trigger shot (ovudrel) yesterday night.  Tomorrow morning is the IUI and I'm excited! But even though I'm excited, I'm so TIRED, like ridiculously tired. Not to mention, I'm BLOATED like I've never been before, emotionally crazy and it hurts my ovaries to even walk.  I spoke to the nurse at my RE's office and she assured me that this is normal and that my ovaries (which are usually the size of lemons) are probably the size of oranges...WTF! No wonder I feel like fat bastard..LOL..anyway...I'm feeling miserable but I am happy that I have 3-4 follicles ready to go, last time I think I had one.  I really hope this works this time and that all of this discomfort is worth it. 
I may not  be pregnant yet but I sure do look it! Aghhh...can't wait to finally do the IUI in the morning! Wish me luck.

So excited for you!! The more the merrier, especially after not having good results before. I know the more IUIs I did, the more follies my RE was ok with me having, as it upped my chances. And yes, when those bad boys are revved up, they HURT! I actually went and bought a bellyband for after my surgery because I was bloated and my pants didn\'t fit, and my tummy was so tender, and I used for during my IUIs when I was bloated too. It\'s so comfy to not have to button my pants, and i\'ll already have one when I do get preggo! I recommend it! Good luck tomorrow!
