Hello everyone!!
DW and I are almost back to TTCing after a loooong 14 month and counting break! Before the break we had 4 unsuccessful IUI's using Femera and trigger to boost my own surge.
Anywho we have a meeting with our RE this week to talk about trying again. Initially when I called the clinic and spoke with the nurse she said I would have to redo all the testing -blood work, investigative cycle and Sonohysterogram then she called and said that they have just changed their protocol and I no longer have to re-do testing. The only test that they had me do so far is the initial blood screen for STD's, rubella and whatever else they check the 8 vials of blood for!!
So I guess my question is, what have others done after taking a break?
Thank you for reading!
