Hi all,

i used to frequent this board back in the fall some but then we decided to take a break from trying to step back and give ourselves a break emotionally. well i just got back in the game this cycle. we did a medicated IUI with trigger. i somehow managed to keep myself from testing until 16DPO. i was so excited because i hadn't gotten my period yet but it was a BFN. i wasn't mentally prepared for how emotionally taxing it would be. i know it was silly to expect anything but this BFN seems so much more soul-crushing than BFNs on a non-IUI cycle.

i was happy to see that so many people who used to frequent this board have graduated! that is awesome!

good luck to everyone trying and i hope there are more graduates soon.

IUI #2 July 2014: BFN

    Welcome back! Sorry that your cycle was a bust. I share your sediment in that a BFN seems to be harder when we are on medically assisted cycles than the BFN from just regular cycles. They both hurt like a son of a biscuit, but when you think you have done everything right medically, it crushes just a little bit more. Good willpower on not POAS until 16DPO, I applaud you! Good luck on your next cycle!
