The IUI went fine. It was very, very uncomfortable (because of the pushing on my full bladder, not the procedure) but very, very quick. Husband's post-wash count was good considering we had to BD less than 15 hours before the procedure. (22.5 million)
I want to thank everyone for their sweet encouraging words. For some reason today I am just very, very down in the dumps. I just have a feeling this did not work. I thought I would be okay with that, but I realize how ready I am for this journey to be over with each passing day. I want to be a mom so badly.
I have done way too much Googling. Bad me. But it seems as if IUI+Clomid is not a widely successful treatment for girls with advanced endometriosis on their ovaries. Or maybe it is, and those girls aren't writing about it because their fertility journeys end so quickly? All I know is that I have been having pretty moderate cramping since the procedure. I don't know if it's because of the insemination itself, or if it's my endometriosis trying to kill off eggs and sperm. I am feeling so very, very sad about all of this.
I was always very emotional the day of and day after an IUI...not so great for me OR the husband. Praying this is your time!
ReplyDeleteAww hang in there! I was the same way after IUI too...I always blamed it on the progesterone. ;)
ReplyDeleteLately I've gone to the library, borrowed a good entertaining book and I'll read that during the wait. It helps keep my mind off of things (kinda)
I'll be praying for you!
Praying for you as you wait out these two weeks!
ReplyDeleteWish you loads of luck and sending you prayers! Hopefully the TWW will go by rather quickly! :)
