BFN: Confirmed

Well, it’s confirmed. It was a BFN. And I’m okay with that. Testing yesterday helped so I got most of the tears out. I’m still a little weepy today, but I’m actually looking forward to taking a little break from all of the hormones for at least a few days.

We’re not sure what we will do at this point. My doctor is okay with doing another cycle of IUI if we want to. I was able to speak with him briefly today. He is very reassuring and truly cares about his patients, which I appreciate. It makes me feel better to know I’m in the right hands.

The question is whether we want to potentially flush another $2600 down the toilet or put that money towards IVF. There are loans available. We would just have to see if we qualify. I guess that would be the next step if we go the IVF route. I’m almost tempted to do the extra IUI since we have all the meds which can’t be returned or sold. On the other hand, they are the same meds we would use with IVF I think.

I’ve had a minor health hiccup I need to get checked out tomorrow. I’m also going to see my regular doctor tomorrow for what I think is a sinus infection that I haven’t been able to treat for the past two weeks. So after all of that, maybe I’ll go in for a baseline this month.

Maybe I won’t.

If we decide on IVF, my doctor will also have to do a hysteroscopy where he will be able to examine the inside of my uterus. I guess I’ll learn more about that when it becomes necessary.

So thanks for the prayers and keep them coming! I’ll definitely continue to update as we move on to our next step.
