IUI success then failure

doubledogdaredoubledogdare
in TTC after 35

I had my first IUI on 10/8 and to my absolute shock got a BFP on Saturday, then another on Sunday! We really could not believe it since we had a really low count for the procedure (2.4 mill).

Well... went in for my first beta on Monday and it was low, 46.4. Then the really bad news today it was down to 24.7. So I stop taking my prometrium tonight and should get AF today or tomorrow.

I'm super bummed and sad, we had just started getting excited and thinking it might be real. But the silver lining is we did conceive, right? We never expected the first IUI to actually work anyway.

 Just needed to share. Thanks for letting me get it out.

    I'm sorry.  :-(  But you're right, I think it's good that you know you can conceive.  Here's hoping next time's the charm!

    So sorry, but you are correct that the silver lining is that it appears you can conceive.  Can you do another IUI next month? ....or do they make you wait.  Best of luck!

    The same thing happened to me last month.  It really sucks thinking you had success and then having it just "go away."  I'm so sorry you're having to go through this.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words - it's so great to have people who understand what you're going through. I have more blood work scheduled tomorrow and if the results are good I can try again this cycle. Here we go again!

    Sorry to hear your news.  It is great that you can see the positive in this situation though.   Here's hoping next cycle results in a sticky BFP.  GL.

    I'm so sorry this is happening. You have a great attitude and thanks for sharing the low count for procedure. It gives those of with MFI hope conception can happen.

     Take care of yourself and I hope you get your sticky bfp soon.
