in Trouble TTC
welp! I just got home from work and i'm spotting. I always start spotting the evening before my period starts, so looks like tomorrow is CD1 and official failed IUI #3 day! I tested yesterday morning and got a BFN, but held onto some hope that I would get a BFP on Friday, boy was I wrong!!! I had such high hopes for this cycle and I'm starting to feel like I can't keep doing this. This cycle felt a lot different than my last 2 IUI's so I really thought it worked. I've gone the last 2 weeks thinking I was pregnant and now I feel like an idiot! Starting to feel like getting pregnant is never going to happen to me : ( We're switching to a new RE this month, bc I feel like my last doc didn't take all the timing seriously. Looks like I'll be starting femara in a few days! I could go on for days with my pity party, but I'm just gonna go to the store and buy some wine! Vent sesh over ; )
TTC #1 since Sept. 2012
June 2013: Start IF testing
Me: Bloodwork and ultrasound all normal. Normal cycles and ovulation
Me: HSG Sept. 2013 All clear
DH: High viscosity, lowish numbers, but not horrible. First SA, count was 40 mill, second SA, count jumped to 80 mill. low morph. Tried mucinex for viscosity issue from June- Nov.
Dec 2013: Clomid 50mg + Trigger + IUI #1 = BFN

Jan 2014: Clomid 50mg + Trigger + IUI #2 = BFN
^^2 mature follies on each side, lining was only at 5.5. Great sperm sample post wash
Feb 2014: 2.5 mg of Femara + Trigger + IUI #3 on Valentine's Day! = BFN
^^ 3 mature follicles on right side 25mm, 24mm and 21mm, Lining at 10mm!!!!!! HUGE improvement
March 2014: 2.5mg Femara + Follitism + Trigger + IUI = BFN
^^ 1 (possibly 2) follies, 9mm lining
