IUI #3
56 million pre -wash and 6.7 million post wash spermies are on their way to hopefully fertilizing my eggs. We will see...
Angel
I forgot what this song meant to me and felt it was fortuitous as I heard it on the way to the IUI this AM. I really love the acoustic version with Santana.
Spend all your time waiting
For that one second chance
For the break that would make it okay
There's always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of this straight life
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don't make no difference
Escaping one last time
It's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
Spend all your time waiting
For that one second chance
For the break that would make it okay
There's always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
In the arms of the angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
So tired of this straight life
And everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack

Of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

CD13 by the numbers
We are triggering tonight.
I have 3 follies that will release: Right 20 and 15 Left: 16. Lining is great. Apparently I also have a bunch of smaller follies all measuring at about 11 or 10 so the total number is 8 for the follies. But since they have to be above 14 to release, those smaller ones won't release.
I went over the protocol with the nurses and this was the first time they told me about the time when you are suppose to trigger and we have been triggering way to early. I should have read the stuff first. I feel like the biggest idiot. We are going to trigger at around midnight tonight so that we get better timing.

CD11 on IUI #3
So I have 4 follies:
It isn't as bad as going in every day like in the past. The Dr. said my ovaries are stubborn and like to make the eggs on their own time. Dr. also said I need to make a WTF apt b/c this is our 3rd IUI. I will talk to my husband about this tonight and make the apt on Friday when I go back in. I think we will push to do the other three IUI's and then possibly move on to IVF. I know they only like to do 3 IUIs before IVF, but since insurance covers 6 IUIs, we should try to use them....
ETA: E2 level was 723
- Right: 15 and 13
- Left 13 and 12
- Lining is at 11.3

CD3 Ultrasound
Right ovary has 9 follies and Left ovary has 7. This is more than last cycle in which I had 8 follies on my right ovary and 4 on my left. I hope it ends up being fruitful for us, but I must admit my hope is waning as time goes on ...

It's official...BFN
Yep, another IUI cycle down the tubes. We have four more to go before IVF. I hope we do not have to go that far. I really want to be a mommy. This process is just so heartbreaking for me.
