Well, it was a bust

Strunella

So, IUI #1 = fail.  Have been feeling crampy the past few days, and wouldn't you know who shows up today...EIGHT days ahead of schedule.  Looks like the drugs totally threw off my cycle.

This is really disappointing.  You go in knowing the odds are slim, but you still have a glimmer of hope.  And you're PAYING for all of this science, so it's hard to digest WHY it doesn't work.  I mean, do the spermies need a formal invitation?  I just don't get it.   Now testing day will be CD 3 and we'll begin the whole process again. 

 ::sigh::

Oh no Strunella.. I am sorry. {{HUGS}}

I agree with the paying for the science. I had a dream the other night that my RE purposely didn't put in the sperm just put in water so that I had to do it again. Just because he needed the money.. (I don't think that but...)

ONWARD, sister!

I am so sorry!  I guess you've eliminated the possibility of implantation bleeding?

Yeah, are you sure it's AF?

Sorry to hear this...I will pray the next one will be the successful one!

I am only saying this b/c it happened to me-but you could still be pregnant. Go for the beta anyway.

I'm so sorry how incredibly dissapointing. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

I'm so sorry!  (((HUGS))).  Sending penguin dust your way for your next round.

Sorry to hear this.  I hope that your next cycle works out better.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sooo sorry, it's just unfair. After a failed IVF cycle (in which everything went smoothly, yet I was not pg) my DH asked our RE if he had named his vacation home after us.....and he was serious.

I'm so sorry-this sucks. Hugs to you.

LizzyB11

I'm sorry to hear that! It stinks to deal with the disappointments like these. And to pay for it makes it hurt even more! I hope that your CD 3 testing goes well and that this month is your lucky one!

MrsKario

Im so sorry honey.  BFNs suck even more after paying all that money for the hope.  Sending hugs.

I'm so sorry.  Best of luck with your next cycle!

Strunella

Thanks, ladies.  Yeah, definitely not implantation bleeding.  Well, guess I have to dust myself off and plow ahead. 

JamieFL

I'm so sorry for this outcome, Strunella. You're in my thoughts and hoping for the best with round 2.  Hugs to you!

Oh I'm so sorry Strunella....hang in there and know that you are on all of our hearts.  I know it doesn't help for us to say we've been there, but know you aren't walking this journey alone.  Here's hoping the next cycle works!!

{{{{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}}}}}  I hope the next cycle works out!

ougrad1

Bummer.  I'm still trying to figure out how it can't happen when everything is seemingly so perfect.  Onward!

FrannyS

I am so sorry.  I know, it's hard to keep hope.  Feel free to vent.  

Babsie7

I'm so sorry. {{{big hugs}}}

I really hope IUI #2 give you your sticky bfp!

taratru

Oh, that just sucks.  I'm so sorry.  I'll be thinking of you and hoping for a better round this time. *hugs*

*littlered*

Are you sure it's AF?  I had some bleeding early on too...  that is really early for AF.  I hope you are wrong! 

 

 

panda246

BOO!!  So sorry to hear this.  I hope you get a better result next cycle.

Amy&Steve0421

I'm so sorry. I totally get how frustrating it is to spend all this money and put your body all thorugh this for nothing.

In a weird way, though, I think this whole process has made me have compassion for other people struggling w/medical issues.  I know when my dad was going through chemo. he expressed similar frustration - a lot of pain for no guarantee of sucess - fortunatly for him - the chemo. did put his cancer in remission.  So - that's my weird positive spin for the day.

kikibird

Sorry to hear this Strunella.  ::hugs:: from me too. 

Hang in there -- onward!

joyfulnature

((((hugs)))

I am so sorry to hear that. But I will say, the 8 days ahead of schedule makes me wonder if it really is AF. Are you sure?

If not this time, my friend, I hope you get your BFP very soon.

sadie sadie

I'm so sorry. ONWARD!!!!

Strunella

Thanks, everyone! You're the best!
