Since this first IUI was a BFN, I went in today and I got bw/us and paid for this cycle. I got my blood drawn first and the resident who was tagging along my RE came and said hi while I was getting my blood drawn, then she walked in and set up the ultrasound machine before my RE showed up and said I looked so sad (my eyes were still so puffy from last night's crying), I told her that I was and she tried comforting me, but really it just made me burst into tears the minute she walked out to tell RE everything was ready, so when my RE walked it, I was already in tears (I am so embarrased) I know it happens and I'm sure she's used to it, but I am not one to cry in front of others.
Anyway she did my ultrasound and apparently I still have some left over follicles so she said we should take a break this cycle because she doesn't think I'll respond well because of them. I'm actually kind of glad because this BFN has been so hard (it was my first time with any type of treatment). Next month will probably be better for me and my unopened meds will still be good for a while, but I have one opened vial that's almost full (has about 200 left) can someone give me the oop email address, maybe someone can use it. It's only good for a couple more weeks, I opened it on the 12th.
Oh yeah almost forgot to add. When I sat up after the ultrasound was done, and my RE was talking to me, I moved to adjust myself and I accidently kicked her (not hard, my foot just kind of touched her leg; she may not have noticed if I didn't say sorry) but I was SOOOO embarrased about that too. She made a joke out of it, but I really WAS embarrased about it ![]()
Re: RE visit this morning was embarrasing
Oh honey, I'm so sorry about your BFN and that you had a rough morning at the RE. Take care of yourself tonight...((hugs)).
And don't worry about the tears, we have all been there. I usually make sure to have kleenex in my bag whenever I go because I know the chance of the waterworks flowing is high. IF sucks and it's completely normal to get emotional. You are certainly not alone. Hang in there.

Try not to be embarrassed, they (of all people!) understand how hard this is on you.
And if it makes you feel better, I cry at almost all my doc appointments, RE related or not!
