So on Friday of last week we had our third attempt at the IUI procedure. My follicles looked nice and mature, and the lining was ready as well. The only downer was that the sperm count was only 7.5M, as opposed to the 20M that we had the last two times. The nurse was quick to reassure us that they just has someone get pregnant from a count of only 4M, so that eased our minds a bit. If we are unsuccesful this time, we will make an appointment with Dr. Park to see what else we could try to increase our chances, but I am feeling really positive about everything this time.
We are going to be pregnant dammit!
On a really positive note, this week will go by really quick because my parents will be flying in to town tomorrow at noon. We have been working super hard to get the house perfect for their visit, and I have worked out a really nice trip for them, will a lot of emphasis on local fun stuff like the fair, and a corn maze! They leave the next week on Tuesday, so our minds will be preally preoccupied with them rather then if we are going to have a baby or not.
One thing that we have decided is to not test this time. My periods have been super regular, and if we are not pregnant, I should get it the day of or after I would have had to test. So, we are just going to wait on that instead. Jenn doesn't think that I can make it without testing, but I am pretty tired of seeing that single pink line mocking me. I would much rather just see if I get my period and deal with it that way.
It is way too early for any symptoms, but I am peeing a lot! I have to get up and pee like 6 or 7 times at night and in the morning. I'm not even drinking all that much water or anything. So we shall see!
