Before I get too far into this post, I want to give a special hello to anyone who found my blog by reading the guest post I wrote today for the Where the *Bleep* is our Stork? blog. I was so honored that Teresa allowed me to write a guest post, and I’m grateful that you took the time to click through and read my own blog.
I went to the RE today for my Day 10 ultrasound to see how well this round of Clomid worked. Despite an increase dosage, Clomid was not my friend this month and I only had one mature follie. We’ve had 3 failed IUIs with 2-3 mature follies each. Our insurance isn’t paying a penny of our treatment, so we opted to cancel the cycle since the odds weren’t that great and it would save us about $1,000.
My RE was willing to do the IUI if I wanted to (after all, it only takes one follie, right?), but I just didn’t feel the cost would be worth it when you factor in the lower odds. My appointment was at 10am and I ended up taking the rest of the day off from work. I was sad and disappointed, and I knew trying to work would be a waste of my energy and company time.
When I got home I turned on Netflix and decided to watch Star Trek:Enterprise. (I’m a nerd, I know). I’ve been re-watching the entire series, and wouldn’t you know that today I just happened to be on the episode that revolves around an alien character whose sole purpose in life is to reproduce. Sigh….
