The wait is over....

in TTC after 35

BFN officially confirmed by the arrival of AF. The witch was 3 days late making me think I *might* be pregnant even though 6 tests confirmed otherwise.

I am not all that bummed about it. This was just my first month and first IUI. I was prepared for it to take several tries.

Now I am just trying to get knocked up for Christmas!

    Thank you all. I really am trying to stay positive - because honestly, what other choice do I have. I sucks it didn't work out this time, but it was only the first IUI.

    I go back tomorrow for my CD3 ultrasound and now the whole process starts over again. That's the good part. You only have 3 days to feel bad it didn't work and then it's right back to it. Looks like IUI #2 will be a few days before Christmas ... so I know what I am asking Santa for this year!
