I had such high hopes for this one..

First of all, the IUI was on October 25th, which was the 5 year anniversary of the first time Jeff and I met (our first blind date!) Apparently infertility has no appreciation of symbolism.

Second of all, with the failure of this cycle  I must now change my insurance to a plan that covers IVF, which is fine (I’m grateful I have that option) except the new plan sucks for everything else. Its an HMO and I HATE having to get referrals. Plus, I have to switch clinics which I don’t mind because I’m not all to pleased with mine, but it’s still tricky to switch mid-cycle.

I was also really hoping to avoid having to get the dreaded HSG. No such luck, will have to go this cycle.

And lastly, yesterday before AF decided to show up, I tested on one of those CVS brand HPTs and I swear there was a faint second blue line there…! But like two seconds later I started bleeding so I didn’t even tell Jeff. No reason to get excited about what was clearly a false positive. Note to readers, stay away from CVS brand HPTs!

So anyway, now its CD2 and I haven’t the slightest idea what my RE has planned because he neglected to inform me at the end of last cycle. I guess he thinks I like surprises? Or scrambling around at the last second to get meds that I might need that very day? I suspect we’re moving on to injectables which is fine with me. Clomid isn’t great for high FSHers and anything that ups our chances is alright with me!

Baseline CD 3 results tomorrow..
