on to IUI #3

Not pregnant. I tested at home again ahead of time so it took some of the sting out of hearing the results, and instead can try and just look ahead to this next cycle. The wonderful, amazing part of all this is I was originally told I would NOT likely respond to the fertility meds, and yet I am! The nurse said again that they still view this as a semi-success because I had follicles and I did ovulate, so there is no reason to not try the same protocol for 1 or 2 more cycles before looking at alternatives. So, I am currently on hold with the sperm bank to order more swimmers and get them to the doctor so it'll be there when the time comes.

One thing interesting about all this.... that two week wait between the insemination and then the pregnancy test is the LONGEST two weeks in the world. Now that I have an ANSWER, even though it's negative, there's a strange kind of peace that comes. Sigh. So now it's a little break, wait for period to come, and start it up again!
