![]() In the brief meeting following the insemination, one of the questions Cozart asked (and I am so glad he did) was: "If this round doesn't work, what will we try different next time?". I would understand had I had 2 or 3 dominant follicles but just one? Why not just give it a try? A little kick start if you will? But, again, he is the doctor and I the patient, he knows best. I accepted that but still didn't feel all that great about it. He felt my body was responding just fine naturally. D's nurse ask him, when the last round didn't take, if we should try a medicated cycle. Now, this is not the first time I have heard this, which is why I had Dr. Their doctors have told them the chances are just too slim and it would be a waste. Internet (I know I know but I just can't help myself and it isn't all misinformation or just opinion, he often brings me much needed comfort), I ran across several women stating their doctors forego any month that they have less than 2 dominant follicles. I also stated you really only need one, so I wasn't going to consider it an issue. Allow me to explain where I am coming from.Īs I stated in my last post I only had one dominant follicle. I have searched for anything and everything that point the odds in our favor, unfortunately I just can't find much. I credit that to finally being able to give this one to Him. Don't confuse my thoughts/feelings on the outcome of this round with worry, I have the least amount of anxiety I have had in 3 years when it comes to this process. I'm not going to blow sunshine where it doesn't and pretend to be uber confident in this round of treatment when, quite frankly, I'm anything but.Īs I mentioned, I have really been trying to be more positive about this round (although it may not sound like it) and I am still giving this one to God 100%. I know I should be speaking positively and "by putting negativity out into the universe, I will only get negativity in return" but, I am also not going lie to you about how I am truly feeling. I am a firm believer in the "whatever you believe, you will receive" mentality and from what I believe to be true right now, I anticipate Flo's arrival sometime in the next 7-10 days. I am trying very hard to remain hopeful and positive but am failing miserably. We are now 3dpiui and I think the title of this post is a pretty good indication of how I am feeling. We left the office and went about our Saturday like we normally would. D's nurse to answer any questions, discuss next steps, be sure I had my progesterone suppositories, etc. Before leaving the office we met with Dr. When the doctor was finished I was again, left to lie on the table for about 30 minutes allowing for a smooth, direct journey for the little spermies. The procedure was, once again, quick and painless. ![]() Understandable when working on a holiday weekend, I guess. His nurse, on the other hand, seemed as if there were about a million different places she would rather be. He seemed nice from what I could gather in the 15 minutes we spent together. D was not scheduled to be in this past weekend. The insemination was performed by one of the other docs, as Dr. Cozart's numbers weren't quite as impressive as the last time but still very good and well above what they want to see. THANK GOODNESS! Cozart went in at 7am on Saturday to make his deposit and we both returned at 10am for the insemination. It was ready and waiting for me all cold and safe in my fridge. And there was no retrieving the shot from a bush outside my doctor's office. Much like the first IUI, I had no side effects from the hormone. Round 2: Cozart ended up not working on Thursday so he was home to give me the Ovidrel shot. ![]()
