No success with IUI #3

in TTC after 35
Our third IUI didn't work. Even with perfect timing...Clomid...etc AF showed a few days ago on cycle day 33. My period has never been this late before. I had brown spotting for a few days but I wasn't counting on it being implantation bleeding, hopefully it isn't a sign that another chocolate cyst is growing. I was hoping that the pain I had during ovulation meant that things were working but I think that Clomid is screwing everything up and who knows what the heck was happening in my body during the pain.
So, I called the IF office and left a message this morning at 0920 and now it's two hours later. I know that the nurse needs to squeeze in time to talk with doctor about the next plan. If they want me to take Clomid one more time, they need to order it NOW so I can pick it up later today since I am on day 3 of my cycle (thanks AF for showing up on a Saturday). I don't know how long it takes for injects to arrive from England but that's probably going to be part of the next plan.
I'm in such a crappy mood today and I hate feeling this way. Everything and everyone is annoying me...except for you ladies!

The office finally called back...looks like we're going to try injectables next. But since they have to come from Europe (the least expensive way to go about it) I'll have to skip this cycle and start over in October...seems so far away. The office will mail me paperwork for me to fill out and then fax (I think) to Europe. Crazy!!! I'll be spending even more time on google and try to wrap my head around what exactly these meds will do.
I asked if we should do another round of Clomid and IUI in the meantime, she explained that we could, but once we order the meds, we can't return them. Seeing how it's going to cost us over $1000 I think I'll just give it a rest. At least I won't be spending another Clomid cycle with ovulation pain. And now I'll have a better understanding as to what a lot of you have been through. I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions...

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!!
I'm sorry.
You probably have a better shot with injectables with IUI anyway. And just think, you get to have sex this month without discomfort from the drugs!
I KNOW! Imagine, sex for fun and without drugs again (at least temporarily)! Now that I'm reading up on injectables, I see that women have a better chance at getting pregnant as opposed to just taking Clomid. If only I would have started with injectables...but I know...we learn as we go along...
