First IUI... a little nervous

I'm 28 and have been TTC for 2 years now and just started my first IUI process.  At first it was just a morpology issue with my husband, then after I was tested for EVERYTHING, it turned out I didn't have enough eggs someone my age should have. We skipped the colmid and went straight to injectables. I had my second blood test/ultrasound today and had 2 mature follicles and my lining is at 10mm. I'm SUPER nervous, it seems like everyone around me is getting pregnant and I just want a baby... Advice or words of wisdom?

When I first started to see my re he sent me for blood work, 11 viles and apparently one of them was to test for eggs.

I went to see the re originally it was because my husband was having issues, but since my egg count was low they went with injectables instead of colmid.

can't wait until tomorrow!

Ladies dont give up yet!!! it is not the end of your cycles and af is not here.  U could just not have enough in your pee for it to show up yet. anything below 50mm wont show up.  it doubles every 2 days so of on day 8 it was 3 then 10 would be 6 12 would be 12 14 would be 24 so 16-18 it would show up.  I hope you rblood test today show up +.

Ladies i am not sure if my re ran that test on me. if they did then they didnt say any thing was worng. what do they do for that test?

I am 9 days down. the testing fever is hitting. I wan tto know so bad!!!  I know a test would not show up this early so i am refusing to do one.  Gl ladies, If u need me i am here.

sorry about the bfn, I know it *****... maybe a blood test would see a pregnancy?
My reserve isn't what it should be at either, I got upset when I heard, but my doc kept telling me it could be worse, if that makes sense?!?!

Keep trying, I know it will work for you... baby dust!

Hey guys....BFN @ drs. they did urine, but no blood. Also got my results back on all my stuff... looks like my egg reserve are low. doc says this shouldnt affect getting pregnant. just means that i dont have as long to get pregnant, meaning earlier menopause. refered dh to urologist, even tho he is on the normal side (lower side of normal) on one SA his motility was super low,  but that shouldnt matter with IUI. oh well plan is, if injectables are covered to do them, if not another round of femara (but 7.5 instead of 5mg).
Good luck to you girls this week!
