How a 30 Something Girl is dealing with everyday Life and Infertility

I'm learning who I am, my battle with Infertility and other everyday ramblings.

April/May IUI Update

So many things have happened since I last wrote.
 Truthfully I just haven't had the time to update. 

Our first IUI worked, We got Pregnant!
We were so excited. Lots of happy tears that day. I wish I had recorded Mr. reaction to seeing the actual pee test that said Pregnant. It was priceless.
The blood work showed that the numbers weren't as high as they would like them to have been for how far along I was. The nurse said not to get our hopes up, but I mean this is the first time in 32 months that we have had anything other than a negative. We were dancing on cloud 9.
One week later everything came crashing down. I went and did the second Blood test and while I was waiting for the results I started to bleed. I knew what was going on but didn't actually hit me till the phone call from the clinic. 
I had miscarried, though the technical term for it was a chemical pregnancy because we weren't far enough along for a ultrasound. Either or we were devastated. We took 2 days to morn what could have been and then looked at it from the positive side.
We CAN get pregnant! 
Now we just have to stay pregnant next time.

We will be doing another IUI but not till August we think. I want to lose some weight and see if that helps. Plus when walking up a flight of stairs now winds you, it's time to get that cushy butt back in gear.

That's what's been going on.
