The Eternal Guest Room

I suppose I should write an update, though there’s not much of one.

When I went in for my last sonogram I still only had one mature follicle, so we decided to not do an IUI. Ideally they want 3-4 mature follicles and we felt it wasn’t worth spending the money with only one and therefore such a low chance of success. Now I know that you can have success with one and that you can have the most perfect cycle ever and still not end up pregnant, but since it is going to be our last IUI we decided to wait for better chances. And even if we did want to do the IUI with one follicle, it wasn’t likely to work out since we couldn’t do it on Saturday anyway.

So we’re at the same place we’ve been in for what feels like forever. I still have the cyst and if it doesn’t go away in the next 2 weeks we’ll have to postpone the IUI another month at least.

Sometimes I feel like banging my head against the wall and other times the whole thing just feels unreal and far away. Infertility is a disease and like any other disease there are good days and bad days.
