Trouble TTC

Highs and lows - vent!

I don't even know where to start with this, but I think I need a Friday venting post... Please share your highs/lows/vents here!

Wednesday - DH got an amazing job offer, which has better insurance and will cover IVF (not sure if we need it yet)!!!

Thursday - My 2nd IUI. One of my best friends texted me that she is pregnant 10 minutes before heading out the door. Once the tears started, they wouldn't stop. I finally calmed myself down enough to go through with the IUI, and cried the whole way home and off an on all evening. DH thinks I'm losing it, but I just can't get over the shock of it, and the jealousy. This is baby #2 for them since we've started trying. And why she thought this would be good news right before my procedure is beyond me!

Friday - My car won't start. Which is great because our other car has been in the shop. So its still not fixed, but I'm driving it!

AND the cherry on top - I came home to a surprise delivery on my doorstep! The ovidrel that FedEx supposedly delivered over a month ago. The driver told me she left it on my front step, but apparently she left it at the wrong house. FML

Anyone else have anything they need to get off their chest?? lol

Re: Highs and lows - vent!

  • I'm sorry about your up and down week. :-( I'd cry if I got a pregnancy announcement right before an IUI too.

    This has been a rough week for me too. We've been super busy, so I'm really tired. I'm on Clomid (enough said, I think). We found out yesterday that the third party reviewer sided with our insurance company so we have no infertility coverage until September even though I'm not ovulating on my own at all. I am so upset about that. I really don't want to wait, but I feel so guilty moving forward when I know we'll eventually have coverage. I could go on, but I won't....

  • Thanks, ladies - sending some good luck wishes to both of you! I know my friend was under pressure to share her announcement online, and I think that's why she did it. She's like a sister to me, I'm still trying to wrap my head around everything. I feel bad that our situation put her in an uncomfortable position, it sounds like she was stressed out about telling me... and I don't even want her to find out how upsetting it was. IF sucks.

    I just need life to calm down right now!
