Failed First IUI

Miriam
Feeling pretty low. Today was results day after my first <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>. I went in this morning for my beta test and by the time I got to work, AF showed up in full force with what feels like a vengeance. 
Back to the drawing board. I called the doctors so now I'm just waiting for them to get back to me with next steps.
I know success on the first try is very rare but damn were we hopeful. Fighting tears. Just wish I was at home so my husband could give me a hug.

Thank you for the kind words. My husband treated me to some wine and sushi last night so that helped. Starting our 2nd round and still optimistic.

I'm sorry. My first IUI a couple months ago was also a FAIL. I had IUI #2 on Dec. 18th. Really hoping it worked, bc I feel like this second time around, we used different drugs and my body responded better. My RE said she wants to limit my IUI attempts to just 3 (and then I should go onto donor eggs), but I think a good argument can be made in trying additional times, since that first IUI cycle involved so much guess-work. So... I guess I'm trying to say that you should definitely not give up hope. You and your RE are going to go into your IUI #2 cycle with more knowledge. Best of luck! 🦋

All the baby dust to you! I pray that this round works for you. We are starting our 2nd round now, my RE is really optimistic for this round, which makes me feel better.

I'm sorry. Our first IUI was also a negative. I was so hopeful thinking how could this not work right? Wrong. But that's okay , keep your head up. I'm not in doing my second round of IUI and hoping this will be our turn .&nbsp;

I went for an iui and it was unsuccessful. Then the next month I did the trigger shot l, and back to back iuis. It was kinda like my Hail Mary before I was going to embark on IVF. It worked. She is almost two now and I just had number 2 &nbsp;4 months ago.( she was conceived naturally). Don't give up! Just keep your eye on the prize!&nbsp;
