so DH had his test yesterday. Now we have to wait 5-7 more days for the results to be faxed to my RE's office.

I'm planning on calling them tomorrow just to let them know the test was done, and to watch for the results. Also, hopefully I can get an idea of how much longer I'll be on these darn pills before I can get going on another cycle. We are getting close to having to work around Thanksgiving - already.

Really, I just hope we can time this just right to not interfere with the long weekend.

If it isn't one thing, it's another.

As if breaking cycles into two week increments wasn't bad enough, add to that waiting for a darn appointment that isn't even your own!

Hubby is going in on Mon, Oct 29th for an SPA test. After almost 22 months and 8 medicated cycles, 3 of which included IUI with injectables (well, 1 of those had poor response and shouldn't really be counted), it's time to see what those little buggers can do!

I'm currently back on bcps to regulate my cycle and help manipulate cycle start timing after the results of his test come in. Hopefully it won't take too long to get the results. My RE did say he'd keep me on them for at least 2 weeks anyways.

Rested. Relaxed. De-stressed. And not pregnant. I was so hoping to have a little souvenir decide to tag along with us through Arizona.

I had such good feelings about IUI #3. I had 4 good follicles and just felt different this time. I tested today at 14dpIUI and it was clear as day negative. I stopped the Prometrium and expect AF to arrive in a couple of days.

What's next? Doctor mentioned maybe more testing before we go ahead with another cycle. I really think we need to step back and regroup. Something we are doing just isn't working.

Every day we are getting closer and closer to the milestone of trying for 2yrs. We never would have guessed it would be this difficult.

Tomorrow we leave for Arizona. I am so excited! We haven't had a decent vacation in a long time. Vacation will be just the beginning of my de-stressing. Today is my last day at my job! After 12 yrs, I turned in my resignation to go back to school. I can almost feel the tension releasing already. One less stress in my life can only help in our quest for baby.

Vacation will also consume week two of the 2ww. What better way to keep myself from obsessing. We'll be home in time to test on hubby's birthday. Who knows, I triggered on my birthday, so why not! It sounds perfect to me.

I'll miss everyone when I'm gone. Can't wait to see all the updates and BFPs that come in while I'm away.

I'm back from IUI #3 and all is well. I got to have the doctor perform the procedure today, and I really think that made a huge difference.

As of Saturday there were 4 good sized follicles, so we have a few targets this time.

Tomorrow I start up on the Prometrium again and continue taking the baby aspirin. Every little thing has to help in some way.

We go on vacation during week two of the 2ww, so I'll have that to distract me from over analyzing every little "symptom".

I'm hoping that 3rd time will be the charm.
