I'm on day 7 of stims and went in for u/s & bloodwrk today. The 2 follies that we saw on Monday had grown(20 & 17) but no new ones were there. Actually the third small on was fading because the large one was taking over. So the Dr is not going throgh with the IVF cycle but instead we are going to do an IUI.
I'm not too hopeful about this since we were needing to do ICSI due to poor motility. We have also had 6 failed IUI attempts in the past so it's hard to stay positive. I know it only takes one and there is still a chance, I'm just very disappointed right now and feel horrible. The next time our clinic does an IVF cycle is July so if this IUI doesn't work we have to wait 3 months and I ain't gett'n any younger!!!

I am sorry to hear that your IVF cycle was cancelled but at least they are still proceeding with IUI. I don't think this cycle was a complete bust beacuse you still are receveing some treatment (IUI). I wish you all the luck in the world for your BFP!!!!

I am so sorry! I had a cancelled IVF due to having only two follicles in February. You are not alone. If you need to talk, I am here.

I am so sorry. I know how you feel. My ovulation got messed up and we may not be able to do another IVF cycle until June or July. Maybe we can celebrate our BFP's together. That is if this IUI does not work for you and I am hoping it does!

I am sorry, I can relate. My first IVF was cancelled and converted to an IUI last year. I was so disappointed and sooo negative about the IUI working. Try to stay positive as hard as it is. I wish you the best of luck.

Mine was cancelled on Tuesday for the same reason. I start over with BC pills on day 2 of my period, whenever that may be. Good luck hunny!

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
