Hello Ladies,
As always, I know that you all will understand!! Just feeling really blue today and trying to muster up some motivation to go through a second IUI cycle at the 'old' age of 45. We were supposed to go through an IVF cycle, but we got preggo on our own again and lost it 4 weeks into it. I am still thankful that I got pregnant and lost it earlier rather than later, so that is definitely a blessing. But now, even if I do get pregnant again on our own, I am soooooo paranoid that we will lose it again!!! My RE still wants to try 3 IUIs, so I guess we will go for our second one. It was just one of those days, where I saw babies everywhere at church today and we went out to lunch with my hubby's best friend and his wife, who are at least 10 years younger and have two boys. Also, I don't really have a connection with the wife, so I got through the lunch. She is always talking about how smart her sons are and how she is so glad that she doesn't have a girl - I WOULD LOVE A GIRL OR ANY GENDER for that matter!!!! It was one of those days that I just wanted to spend time with a close friend or no one at all, but I am so thankful for so many wonderful people and blessings in my life, that I felt bad that I was so blaaaah today:( I have never imagined my life without a baby, but maybe God has other plans. Please pray that we will be given some clarity along with all of you wonderful ladies, who have been through so much. I wish you all of your baby dreams!!!!

We'll be thinking of you!!
I'm sure your RE has good reasons to keep trying IUIs before moving foward with IVF.
I hope faith proves him right and gives you your BFP on your next try.
Good luck
