First IUI done this morning

October 2012 in Trouble TTC

Well just did our first IUI this morning. It was relatively painless, but a little cramping after and currently. We were surprised that there were only about 4M post-wash as for DH's SA the count was 120M with 51% motility.

Does the washing process also get rid of those with bad morphology? From what I've read online the washing process is usually a gradient centrifugation with the less motile "lighter" sperm rising to the top and that is how they separate the sample.

Anyway, I guess only time will tell. The RE's office want me in for beta on 11/9.

Is anybody's DH taking Fertilaid or Wellness Fertility Blend? Any results?
