IUI #2 - FAIL

Well, back to the drawing board. AF arrived today, CD 28, as expected. This was our 25th month trying to conceive. I have NEVER had a positive pregnancy test, not once. I had 4 follicles this time, 3 last time, good sperm counts, and still negative. I'm really starting to lose hope that we will ever conceive a child. On paper, everything looks normal. But, there must be some reason that we're not getting pregnant. I don't know how much more of this I can take.

  1. I am so sorry to hear this. I know it is hard to stay positive. I am in the same boat...trying for 2.5 years. Never had a + test. Unexplained infertility. 3 failed IUIs. It is all so exhausting. Try to keep your head up!

  2. I'm so sorry you are experiencing this. Keep your chin up though and DON'T give up! I battled infertility for 11 years.... multiple IUI's, followed by multiple donor sperm IUIs. No success and never a positive pg test either. I never, ever thought I would be successful. Yet, IVF and finding the right RE was the key for us... I know that it sucks to think it may take more invasive procedures for success... but it may just be worth it in the end. You are in my thoughts! BIG BIG hugs!

  3. I am so sorry. I wonder about us gals who go for years (ahem, including our teenage-having-sex-oops-the-condom-broke years) and never once get pregnant. I think about my inability every day. I begin iui and injectibles next month and am terrified that I will go through one, two, three, (four?) tries with no success.

    hmm

  4. I am sorry. We are also "unexplained." So frustrating.

  6. Hi, just wanted to pop in and offer support. We went through 4 failed IUIs last year and it was so hard. I am currently in the middle of the 2ww from our first IVF and are hoping with everything we have that this is it. Please don't lose hope!

  7. Hugs! I am so sorry. My husband and I have been having really bad luck too. We will hopefully be doing our fourth IUI next weekend!
