Got some unexpected news

in TTC after 35

This month will be our 2nd IUI and last.  UGH!

DH got his SA results today and his morphology went from 5% down to 3%.  He has been on a huge list of supplements for the past 3 and a half months that were supposed to help.  

Our RE won't do IUI if morph is below 4% but agreed to let us try this one last time.  The only option now is IVF.  We don't have the money for IVF.  I'm not ready for this to be our last month...we were planning on doing 4 IUI's so we were just in the beginning.  I was in tears off and on all day today.  We have been so positive and thinking ok, first IUI didn't work..that's ok, we have 3 more times.  Nope, this will be the last one.  UGH! 

Talked to DH about donor sperm and he is not comfortable with that right now.  Not sure that he'll change his position on it in the future though.

    Big hugs to you.  I am sorry the news wasn't what you had hoped for.  My fingers and toes are crossed that the next IUI is the one that brings your BFP.

    I'm sorry.  :-( 

    I hope this round of IUI works for you.  (And if it doesn't, I wish you well on finding/funding other options.  It's not over 'til it's over!)

    I'm sorry......find that when you get unexpected bad news that it's so hard to deal with because it's out of your control and you don't have a plan in place.  Hoping that your IUI ends in a BFP.  Sending hugs your way............best of luck this cycle.

    I understand why your husband doesn't want donor sperm. Can they begin to collect and freeze his sperm for future IUI's so that it maybe amounts to what is needed? GL to you and push for your IUIs!

    So sorry this is happening to you.  Have you looked into financing options for the IVF?  One of my friends did that with my RE and it worked well for her.

    Sorry to hear this..fingers crossed for a BFP on next IUI!

    ME:46 MH:44 DE IVF 2014
    Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive.  Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)

    DE IVF #1 (4/26) BFN  DE FET #1 (6/4) BFP! Beta 1=339 Beta 2=852 Beta 3=9957 EDD 2/22/15!!
