New Plan

CD10

Today DH and I met with our RE for our “WTF” appointment.  This month will be IUI #4 of the same Clomid 150mg + Trigger + IUI.  We met with the RE to change things up if this month doesn’t work.  He told us that insurance requires 6 IUI’s before moving to IVF.  We talked about doing either clomid + 1 injection on day 8 or doing full infects.  Since the chances (about 18%) were about the same for each of these protocols we figured we would go with the less shots one and the clomid since we know how I usually respond well with the clomid. 

So if this month doesn’t work, next month will be clomid 100 mg + either 1 shot of follistim or gonal-f (depends on insurance) + Ovidrel trigger + IUI + Crinone suppositories (haven’t had to do those yet, should be fun). 

I am excited that we are getting a little more aggressive with the meds without heading right into IVF.  I am a little annoyed we have to do 3 more IUI’s before we can move to IVF, but with any luck we will get pregnant before the 6^th IUI is done!

Our RE was great about answering all our questions regarding risks of multiples (which will be upped from 10% to 20% with the injectibles) as well as IVF questions and embryo biopsies.  Now all I can do is hope time passes quickly and one of these months things come together to bring us a baby!
