IUI, Here we come!!!!

After meeting with the RE last week and talking with DH, I was pretty bummed to say the least.  I spent the weekend looking into adoption information, as that was the step we had decided to take right now.  I was/am still feeling that my ultimate goal is to be a mom, not necessarily be pregnant in order to do so.  After lots of prayers and some of the comments from my DS sisters, I felt a real tug that we should pursue IUI next month.  My new RE said that I would not need a new beginning ultrasound for this next cycle, as I just had one last month and did not have a medicated cycle this month- this saves alot of $$$ as you all know.  The cost of IUI- $285!  That seems like nothing.  I have to buy the OPK sticks, and the clomid, but that's all.  My DH initially said no to the IUI with our first RE because it was $1200!  I agreed, that for a 10-15% working that was a lot of money.  I feel that having this one cycle only cost $285 it is almost a sign from God that we need to at least try it.  We talked last night and decided that it is a one- shot deal.  Because of the antibodies in DH's sperm I hope that the IUI will help separate everything out for him and give us a great chance.  And so..... I need the prayers to start ladies!  I have 1 1/2 weeks left in this month's 2ww, and then if a BFN again, onward to our one and only IUI cycle.  Prayers that this is God's intention of making our first IUI reasonably priced, prayers that I don't turn into a crazy you know what again on Clomid,  prayers that Friday's culture that I go in for shows that the bacteria is gone that I had, prayers that our IUI works! I haven't started to research the likelihood that one IUI will do the trick, not sure if that would be a good thing to do or not.  I really need to stay optimistic.  Also ladies, any suggestions, tips, words of wisdom for me as I prepare myself for this process?  Please start the prayer chain for us and our miracle next cycle.
