Update on Fertility treatments

So I completed my first round of fertility treatments: Clomid, estrolyl, HCG the whole bit but unfortunately, there was no success. I started my period Saturday and have two negative tests. So we start again today with the medications. This time we are going in for the IUI because I think we should be as aggressive as possible,  I just can't keep up with all the disappointment that follows each month and I am just ready to get this started! After almost 4 years, I think I have waited long enough.

So I am staying positive and trying not to let myself hope too much or doubt too much (If that's even possible!)

 

Anyway, Have an awesome day everyone and thanks for the support :)

Hang in there--my sister went the same route of meds and IUI and has 3 kids now!  I know it's really frustrating to wait but when you get a baby in your arms it makes the wait just melt away.

I feel your pain :( we tried clomid, trigger shot and progesterone and Nada. Even when we saw 2 good follicles ;(. We are taking a break before we try an IUI. I hope this cycle brings your a bfp :)

Good luck! I hope you can stay positive. (It makes life a lot easier). I just started my period after a very disappointing miss with timing and our IUI two weeks ago. But I'm also trying to put in a happy face and be excited about trying again in a couple weeks. I wish you all the best of luck when you are taking all the hormones. I just have my own hormones and I'm going crazy! Lol good luck and keep us posted!

Oh I know! The hormones are making me nuts! I was such a grouch on Sunday, I left the house to get a pedicure just so my husband could have a break from my mood swings.  I recognize it is happening and that I am acting out of character, but for some reason I can't control it.

I am much better today, but Monday and Tuesday were pretty rough.

Hanging in there :)
