I know I’ve haven’t done much with the blog lately, but there hasn’t been too much to share. We went in for the IUI procedure about two weeks ago on Sun. 10/27. This procedure usually has about a 10% chance of resulting in pregnancy, but from a canceled IVF the chances go down to a 5% chance.
That being said, today I learned I’m not pregnant. Carl and I have an appointment with the doctor at the end of the month to discuss next steps. We’ll need to learn if there is anything that can be done to help us get further along in the IVF process before we decide if we want to try it again.
I have to be honest that I’m pretty disappointed that we didn’t get further in the IVF process. It’s been a bummer to pump myself up with all the drugs with so little success. Even worse is after we downgraded to IUI, Carl still has to give me a huge shot every night, just in case. It can all be a little frustrating, but not the end of the world.
I’ll keep you posted after our appointment in late November. Thank you for all of your support in this process!
