Big. Fat. Negative.

The title pretty much says it all. The IUI didn't work - AF arrived with a vengeance at the weekend.

I knew it was a long shot, and yet I hoped. After all the unrelenting shittiness we've experienced so far, I thought that maybe, just maybe, we deserved a bit of a break - a bit of good luck, for a change.

But I was wrong. We're not even back to square one - it feels that we've slipped even further back than that. Now we have to deal with my poor response, as well as Mr H's wonky sperm. Our dreams of becoming parents seem further away than ever before.

Sorry, that just sucks! Poor yourself a big glass of wine (well, maybe wait until at least mid-afternoon) and take a nice hot bath...sometimes it helps a little

I am very sorry to hear that. A big glass of wine is a good suggestion, just something to take your mind off this.

Oh god, honey. I am so so so sorry. I know how hopeful you were.

Give yourself the time you need. Do what you can to dull the worst of the pain. Try to leave the house once in a while.

I'm so sorry. It just sucks all around. Take care of yourself right now.

I'm so sorry. I was rooting for this cycle despite all the setbacks. It just really sucks.

I've been following your blog for a little while now. So sorry this cycle/IUI didn't work out. Maybe you can have a nice big cup of coffee...that always makes me feel a little better!

Well crap. I'm sorry. Time for the wine.

I am so sorry.

so sorry, ms. h. that just rots.

I hate that feeling of falling back even more, feeling further away than ever. I can only hope your doc adjusts the protocol and you will have a much better response and outcome next time!

cheers to you. ~luna
