OMGGGGGGGGGGGG...I can't even believe this day and the doctor's office. It just get's worse and worse and seriously I think I may not be able to do this cycle - so it's WASTED because of ignorance!

NOW I call my doctor because I'm STILL waiting for the nurse to call me and let me know when to trigger and when to go for IUI, and they tell me the freakin' nurse is NOT in today! EXCUSE ME!!! When I made the appt. she said she'd be in and get my u/s results call the doctor and schedule everything!

I told the office this is not going to work, I possibly need to trigger tomorrow, and have IUI on Sunday! So NOW I'm waiting for a call back from the "on call" doctor. But I have no confidence in them and am leaving work at 3 p.m. today because we are going on a field trip with my stepdaughters class to a movie which starts at 4 p.m.!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...this is absolutely ridiculous, I could cry, scream and then cry some more!!!

I don't know what to do!

Keep on top of them... call as many times as it takes. Annoy them until they deal with your concerns. Good luck to you. maybe some of the ladies here will be able to give you some advice about the trigger and such.. Ive never done it, but many here have.
Good luck to you...
Do you have a cell phone that you could put on vibrate while youre in the movie?

It is so frustrating when you are desperately waiting around to find out what to do. Timing is everything with this! I would call back and tell them you need to know ASAP. Keep calling. Good luck. I hope they give you what you need to know.

Ughhhhhhhh...I can breathe now! My OB/GYN office called the RE that did my IUI last cycle and had them call me. I go in again tomorrow for another u/s and they'll give me the shot then. THEN I'll go in on Sunday for another IUI!

Ughhh...this month or day actually has been so stressful!!!

I would BD with dh as well as iui, they might mess up timing. You know you got the eggs they are just waiting to be fertilized! (Unless dh has a low count)Wish i had done that, now can't my tubes are blocked. Good luck, hope you get a bfp with this cycle!!!

That is horrible. Im so sorry to hear that. I agree with Sunshinesgirl that you should keep bugging them til they have to deal with it. Just drive them up the wall til they give you an answer because this is not something you can wait around on.

I am so sorry this happened. A cycle is stressful and hard enough without this kind of stuff being added. I am glad you finally got your call and hope the rest of the weekend goes well. Good luck with the IUI!
