Newbie intro and questions....
Hi there ! while I have been on and off the boards on a regular basis, but I wanted to do a proper intro ! My DH and I have been TTC since May 2009. After our 3rd IUI and BFP (we were so excited!) I have to get a D&C done since there was no further development - no heartbeat. We just have our 4th IUI on 3/11/11. My heart goes out to all the ladies that have been TTC ....
In addition to only having one working tube, does anyone else have a unicornuate uterus and have they discussed the high risk pregnancy ?
I am normally try to be positve about this journey, lately the emotional roller coaster is getting to me. While we want to keep moving forward, I think a break might be healthy. Is anyone feeling the same way lately ?

Re: Newbie intro and questions....
HI and welcome to the board. I hope your stay is short and you will get your BFP with this IUI.
DH and I took a break between IVF #1 and IVF #2 which we are in the process of now. It was a 3 month break and while part of it was a forced break, it was a well needed one at that. IF is an emotional roller coaster and I know it gets to everyone at some point. You just have to remember that everyone deals with it differently and you have to do what is best for you and your DH.
Best of luck with your decision!
