So, after a month of testing, talking to doctors, praying and wondering what God has in store for us, it appears we have at least another 4 rounds of IUI in front of us.
The second opinion Doc looked at my results and didn’t have the same high-drama reaction my fertility specialist had. The second opinion Doc thinks that with some adjustments to hormone medications, IUI might be able to work. Good news for a Friday the 13th, hey? And a pretty good birthday present, too.
I would think with news like that, I would be more enthusiastic. But instead, I feel more… even. Neither excited nor sad. I am okay. I am grateful that we still have a chance, but working very hard to stay even and level. Extreme excitement or dread/sadness about possible failure are not helpful emotional swings for me or for Frank.
So yeah, I’m breathing in and breathing out – and praying with each breath.
That’s all I can do.
Oh, and for those of you who missed the hormone drug-induced crazies – hold on to your hats! It’s back with a vengeance!! yee haw!
i am so proud of you! you are handling this really well, in my opinion!
if you will allow me, i will be excited for you guys!!!!! i hear good news and am excited at the hope!
but i also really agree with how you’re dealing with it. keep praying, listening and in the deep and inspiring words of Pixar….”keep swimming, swimming, swimming. just keep swimming, swimming, swimming…” 🙂 and that phrase actually has a double meaning!! 😉 that was for you em!! :*
I know this is mixed news for you, as it signals another emotional rollercoaster, but… it’s also great news! You have four more rounds of hope! And I feel good about this 🙂 x
Flying high – you are right – it is both great news and an emotional roller coaster. I’m trying really hard to focus on the great news part 😉 You know how it goes! I’m feeling much better about this than the first time around… here’s to prayin’!
Keep praying. My husband and I have been having problems too, we just have to have faith. your in our prayers.
