So 14dpiui I went in for my beta. Nurse called in what seemed like 10 hours later to tell me that she didn't have good news to share. So IUI#1 was a bust. At the time, I just took the news and carried on. Now, I'm pissed, depressed, and angry as to why getting KU isn't happening. Now I'm just waiting for AF so I can really move on.

Re: I'm out...again (short vent)
Sorry about the BFN. How big was/were the follie(s) when you triggered?
Once I had two BFNs with IUI my RE suggested me moved on to injects because while follies that are the right size (18-25mm) they are not always mature. (See IVF gals that have like 20 eggs retrieved but only 16 mature, of those only 14 fertilize...and that's with a doctor putting the sperm in themselves!)
Injects are supposed to help mature follies. But still there is not gaurentee....which is why for IUI cycles I'm always happy if there is more than one mature...not looking for twins, but for a higher chance that at least one is not only the right size, but actually mature.
IUI#4 1/23/13 on 75iu x9 Follistim = BFP then chem preg m/c (Feb 2013)
IUI#5 BFN (April 2013)

i am on IUI #3 and 99% sure it's not happening (beta tomorrow). I feel the same way-- it sucks! i just keep focusing on the end result, and keeping myself grounded that it might take longer to achieve than i thought. it still doesnt keep me from getting pissed/ sad every once in awhile though. =/
I only had one really mature folly at the trigger. It was a 19.5. I had three in the running, but overnight the one that was 19.5 knocked out the other ones I guess. I asked about injects and my RE is trying to hold off. He believes that I would hyperstimulate so it was not his first choice. I don't have a protocol for this next cycle because I still waiting on AF. I'm no doctor, but I speculate, we'd up clomid to 150 and trigger and hope for the best. I never thought I'd desire an inject cycle, but it seems like it would increase some odds.
Thanks for listening ladies.
