When after first you don't succeed, try, try, try and try again. This is apparently my motto when it comes to makin' babies. The wife and I decided to try one last round at California IVF since we have one more vial there and IF, for some awful reason, it doesn't take then we switch over to Kaiser during open enrollment and try there.
When I went in to see the doctor last Thursday, I asked her what can I do different? Is there something I can eat, take, do???? I've been getting a good response from the Clomid, my lining has been perfect since I started the estrogen... so it must be my damn eggs. I told her what is the next step, aggressive-wise? She said injectibles, which are two grand a cycle, but since my FSH was high (13) that wasn't an option. Shit, I rule it out as an option as soon as I heard the price.
So here I am, four days into my Clomid pills and one more day left. Then on Tuesday I begin five days of estrogen. And then a follicle check on Friday. My guess is the IUI will be either Monday or Sunday depending on when I have to give myself the shot of hcG.
Please, please, please... let this be our time.
We had our second IUI with injectables and we find out on Friday if we are pregnant... We know it was much more costly, but we wanted to increase our odds, even if just by a few more percentage points. I know how you feel though, and hopefully you guys get pregnant soon. It's such an emotional roller coaster, isn't it?!
