Infertility

Needing some support

Well, turns out IUI#2 is a bust. Had my beta today and it was less than 1. IUI #1in October was 4. I am quickly going through the stages of grief in my office and cannot wait to leave to cry in my car. I am just so mad at myself for thinking this could be our month. I figured it was negative, because well it always it, but it stings to hear those words from the nurse. It was also great to hear a story about another couple who got pregnant in the year of the horse, so maybe 2014 is our year...

Re: Needing some support

  • *hugs* I am so sorry. I have been in your shoes more than once. This journey is a struggle, for sure. But you will have your take-home baby someday. Keep trying to stay positive! I know it's hard to do that but I have found that it helps.

    In the meantime, if you celebrate Christmas please enjoy your holiday and drink some well deserved wine!

  • I am so sorry!  It is a horrible feeling....and I swear emotions seem to run so much higher when there is no where to go release them.  But please don't be angry with yourself....thinking positive can do wonders.  You shouldn't stop believing that each cycle is gonna be the one....cause one day it will be!
