Trouble TTC

IUI 5 scheduled for tomorrow

Tomorrow is our 5th IUI attempt and I have never felt as nervous as I feel this cycle. Anyway, looking for all the good vibes, thoughts and prayers I can get. Hoping that this is final our cycle!

There is nothing worse than infertility. It's a disease that insurance doesn't knowledge and unless you've been through it, you can't relate. I often feel alone because even those that care the most about you often say the wrong thing because they just don't get it. I'm thankful for this forum, but at the same time I wish none of us knew what this feels like. Fingers crossed for all of us!

  • Best wishes for IUI! I hope this is it for you!

     I know exactly what you mean. Even the most well-meaning people can set me off crying. The other day I met a woman who just had her 4th unsuccessful IVF. I told her that we are also going through IF, but I can't begin to imagine how she feels. Then I thanked her for sharing such an intimate part of her life, and I let it go. If she wanted to talk more, it was up to her. I hope I handled that right.

    FX!  I hope this is your cycle.

    IF does make you feel alone.  No one IRL understands. I vented earlier to a close family member how I feel like people who DO know about it seem uncomfortable when I talk about it and she said, "are you sure you're not just being sensitive?"  Um, yeah, I'm pretty f**king sure. 

    That is exactly what I mean! It's a good thing we all have each other!
