a break. I talked with the nurse today and told her we would not be doing another medicated cycle this month. I told her if my next step would be a lap and then IVF, I would rather save my money for those things (since we are OOP) instead of doing another IUI. The first 3 were unsuccessful and I just need to focus on other things for a while. If we do IVF, it will probably be in the spring. I meet with my doc in a few weeks to discuss. I'm sure I'll probably lurk, and possibly post every once in a while. Thank you ladies for your advice and support during this journey. I wish you nothing but the best!!
TTC #1 since April 2009
IUIs 1-3= BFN
IVF 1=BFN
Re: I think I need...
It took 5 failed IUIs and a failed IVF, but our FET worked!
