Finished Round 2 of clomid and estrodyl I am going in for ultrasound today to see if I have follicles big enough for IUI. My nerves are off the chart at this point because last time the biggest follicle I had was barely 16 and my doctor wants at least 17. Hoping for the best today and I'll keep you updated :)

The ultrasound showed a follicle almost 17 so I did the HCG injection this morning and I go in tomorrow for IUI.  The Follicle is in my right ovary and it is the most cystic so I hope that it will be alright. After that is the dreaded two week wait!

I'll keep you updated :)

BTW this round of clomid and estrodyl, made me kinda crazy. I had mood swings from hell, hot flashes, I was STARVING, and generally unpleasent!

I have had 12 IUIs, and 2.5 IVFs, so this is coming from experience.  17 is small to trigger if you were taking clomid.  They should have given it another day or two before triggering.  Not that it can't work, but most RE's say at least 19 - 20 for clomid and some even bigger.

Are you seeing an OB or RE?  PLEASE, I plead with you or anyone struggling with fertility, do not waste your time with an OB.  Their profession is to help you deliver a healthy baby, NOT get you pregnant.  RE's however, exist just to GET you pregnant.

So, if you are seeing an OB and this round doesn't work....go see an RE and they'll be better able to help you.

Good luck!
