Back to the fertility drawing board

So, around August I decided it was probably time to go back to Concept to see what the doctor says. A quick trip to the GP for a new referral and couple of check up blood tests later, we find ourselves back where we left off.

An IUI was scheduled and it was all done and dusted last weekend. I'm always a bit apprehensive beforehand where Hubby's involvement is concerned, as he's not the biggest fan of medical, fiddly bits. But he was pretty supportive with very little resistance, so that put me at ease a little. He comes in during the turkey basting procedure and reads a magazine or watches me squirm uncomfortably on the table. Yeah, it seemed a little weird at first, but I'm glad he's there while I have to lay there for 20 minutes afterwards because it helps me keep my game face on.

We both enjoyed a fantastic breakfast at the cafe down the road afterwards, and that helped to lift the mood a little. And the weekend carried on...


And now the wait...I don't normally go in for the pregnancy blood test, I just wait it out to see if nature takes it's course. But I might do it this time. It will save me the expectant wait which peaks around Day 27. Oh! Those last days suck so bad!
