Trouble TTC

My post C/P WTF appt.

So we just got back from out WTF after last months chemical pregnancy and I am very pleased!  I had planned to try and talk him into a 5th IUI since two years ago he always said he did 4 IUIs and then moved on to IVF.  But I didn't need to because he said "That's if you didn't get PG.  Obviously, this was not the final outcome we wanted but it shows you released an egg, your tubes are still clear, the sperm made it into the egg and you successfully implanted.  I have no problem with doing a few more IUIs since you are OOP.  If you had great IF insurance I'd say 'Sure, lets do IVF for the best odds'.  But since we've seen this treatment worked once and you just landed on the statistical side of m/c, I feel confident letting you continue with it."

We were thinking of putting off IVF until next year anyway in order to buy a house this year (and save a few hundred a month on mortgage vs rent).  So DH's annual bonus can go for that instead of IVF.  Now we're just going to wait a few months for HSA to build back up again and go again.  Best of both worlds?   If we buy a house and are able to save the few hundred each month it will make it that much easier to pay for IVF if we do need it.  So it looks like Mid May after we get back from our Reno/Lake Tahoe vacation will be about when we go for it!
