4th time not the charm

AF came today. I'm not as depressed as I thought I would be, since going into the last IUI we were not super hopeful. I'll go in Monday for a baseline to see if I have any cysts. Keeping my fingers crossed we can jump right into the next cycle. We'll be upping the shots a bit to see if I can get more eggs, but doc doesn't want to add anything for my lining yet.

Is it bad I have lost a lot of hope that IUI will work and am already letting my mind go to the next step (IVF)? Meh.

    After having had 4 cycles (total in my lifetime) of Clomid with IUI, I've sort of given up hope on that one, too. Either way, I hope everything looks good, and you're able to move right along to the next cycle. FX that the 5th time is the charm!

  • I'm so sorry.

    With regards to your feeling bad about IUI, I think it's normal. I think it's also healthy to start mentally prepping for IVF. I did the same after our 3rd Clomid/IUI/TI. I hope your ovaries are cooperating and you can get started on #5. I hope #5 is the one for you.

  • It's not bad that you've given up hope on IUI. The statistics only really up you to what a "normal fert" couple have each month to get pregnant....which is still a dismal number. 

    Go eat all the chocolate and hopefully your next cycle doesn't have any cysts!
