Letrozole, Ovidrel and IUI

Emmanuelle • Single mom, TTC for rainbow 🌈 baby #1... 9 IUIs with Letrozole, Gonal-F, Ovidrel and Prometrium. My last 2 cycles ended in early miscarriages. Did IVF and got 7 day 5 embryos. Fresh transfer failed. 1st FET ended in early miscarriage.

I had 3 failed IUIs in the past with no drugs. This round, I took Letrozole day 3-7, had an echo day 12 to see the follicules and told me to do the trigger short on day 13. I went in for my IUI on day 15.

It had been exactly 12 weeks yesterday so I tested and it was BPN. I didn't lose hope as my periods had not started yet and my luteal phase had never been more than 10-11 days.

When I went to the bathroom after work today there was some spotting and then Aunt Flo just showed up tonight.

I was sure this was the month for me. I had even picked a new donor this time. I'm starting to feel discouraged through all these steps and I keep seeing pregnancy announcements from friends on Facebook saying they are expecting again when their other kid is barely one.

I really hope it will be my time soon. I'm 30, almost 31, and I've been wanting kids since I'm 18 but my previous boyfriends did not want any. That part of my life is missing...

Sorry for the long post guys... just needed to vent. Will have to start Letrozole again and it gives me such a bad headache the last 2 days I take it.
