Two down, Two Week Wait to Go!

The second IUI was successfully completed this morning at 10:30. Unfortunately, Babe's count was even lower today at 1 million post wash. *SIGH* this is really getting frustrating. The RE was very concerned about our success for this cycle and mentioned discussing "other" options if the cycle fails. Read: I'm sorry guys IUI really isn't a good option for these counts..you may want to consider IVF. Geeze...just what we need, a more expensive procedure.

We definitely can't afford IVF so we are praying hard that God gives us a miracle. Otherwise, I guess it is back to trying au natural until something happens. So we are on to the two week wait. I don't know how I feel going into these next two weeks. I know I have to believe with all my heart that this procedure works. That is all I have to hold on to right now. I know if we get a negative then we can try again because we can always save but now the issue becomes more difficult because the doctor feels that IUI is no longer our best option. What else can I say...Infertility is very depressing.
