Where to go from here?
I’m making myself sick worrying and wondering what the hell to do next cycle. I’ve heard from so many people that injectibles can give you a better chance. And I’m still ticked that the RE never thought to plan for the fact that we only had 3 IUIs – and never scheduled a follow-up consultation to discuss where we were going AND when I went to do so I couldn’t get one until halfway through IUI#3 when it’s far too late. Gah.
So tomorrow I’m planning to test again just to confirm the negative so I can call the nurses and ask them again if injects is something we should be concerned about.
Am I making any sense? I have no idea.
Today I was really snippy with Den when he came home from work. Not feeling upset or mad or anything, I just felt very detached and a little bit snarky. He finally pulled me aside and told me to take a deep breath and take it down a few notches. He gave me a hug and I just started crying. Guess I’d been holding in more than I thought. I’m just so frustrated. When we started the clomid I was so hopeful again. Now I’m right back where I started. :(

First off, I’m so sorry that the last two cycles have been busts :( Your responses to clomid were SO GOOD though, that I can’t imagine that on injectables you would WANT a better response – in fact, I would ask the doctor if you would possibly overstimulate on injectables. In a lot of ways though, you don’t know until you try – I had a shit reponse to clomid and matured more than 20 follicles on injectables.
Have you considered asking your doctor about a lap?
Anyway, I hope that you can regain some measure of hope after your meeting with your doctor. And hang in there in the meantime.
((hugs))
Not yet, but a lap is going to be the next thing I ask about. :)
