Just called to schedule the appt. for the IVF consult, and I was hoping and praying I could get in by Weds. which would be CD1 (the office is actually really good about getting appts. asap) but they are booked until 10/7. Which will be CD6, which means we get to do nothing for an entire cycle. No IUI, no IVF, nothing, just sit around waiting for Nov. cycle. UGH UGH UGH.
I just want to yell and scream. I am so frustrated with this whole effing process. It always feels like I'm in a "Hurry up and wait" rut. We finally got to the point of treatment cycles, after 7 effing months of testing, and now we're back to effing waiting again.
I just wanted to vent. That's all. Just waiting around for AF. Nothing to really see here.

Vent away! They won't let you do another IUI cycle while you wait?
I guess not! I asked her that last cycle (if we can plan for IVF while we're waiting on the IUI cycle) something about INS approval issues. I guess that makes sense, but it's just so frustrating to get benched when we're just starting treatments

Ugh, that sucks. Stupid INS. Never know though, there have been several stories through here of someone getting KU on a hurry-up-and-wait cycle!
Two DDs 10/08 and 08/10, no primary IF
TTC #3 since 10/2011 - dx unexplained/weak ovulation
3 BFN clomid + TI cycles, 5 BFN clomid/gonal f IUIs, 1 mmc IUI
2/19/2014 IVF #1 Unexpected low E2 (oversuppressed) -> increased to max doses = 3 or 4 follicles, converting to IUI
BFFP Saw 1 beautiful heartbeat at 6w6d, follow up u/s at 9w showed mmc. Eff this.
NTNP 5/2014-9/2014, OPKs and TI 10/2014 - 1/2015.
RPL testing all normal, AFC, AMH, and FSH all normal.
Blech! I am sorry... You would think they would let you make it earlier and always be able to cancel it. So frustrating. We spend way to much of our lives waiting.
This exact thing happened to me. After my 3rd IUI I called to report my CD1 and they said there was no 'plan' in my chart and I needed to meet with the doctor before proceeding with another medicated cycle...and of course they were booked for what seemed like an eternity, so we had to sit that cycle out. I felt the same way as you! I hope they can get you in there ASAP!
After 3 failed Clomid+TI cycles, DD was conceived with IUI#1
It's so hard to be at the mercy of someone else's schedule and your body's cycle when all you want to do is get things going. I'm sorry for the cycle break - it's not fair.
