One last time

The Label aside, my fears, worries, concerns aside, this is our 6th and last attempt to make this happen and I am staying positive and hopeful! This just HAS to work.

The Label

Have you ever been labeled? It's a horrible feeling. Today that happened and I'm angry. I'm sad. I'm beyond frustrated.

Turns out my insurance company denied all claims from the new clinic, so nothing will be covered. Although the business office and myself had spoken to an insurance rep previously, they said I've now been labeled with Infertility and that means nothing will be covered. Not only do I now have a large balance due before our last IUI this week, I now have a label.

I can see it now, my manila medical folder with a BIG, red stamp across the front: INFERTILE.

What goes up, must come down.

Big. Fat. Negative. I think I've hit an all-time low in this journey. I truly thought this could have been it, but once again, my dreams, my hopes, my prayers...they're all gone.

I only have a few days to sulk before I put my happy face back on and start this all over again. How much longer can I emotionally handle this? I can't give up, I just can't...but it's unbelievably hard to keep going...

Good signs!!

Today I had a mid-cycle appointment to check my hormone levels and to see if I ovulated. This is the first time I've had levels checked after an IUI and I was SO happy with the results!
My progesterone levels are perfect, my uterine lining is perfect (even thicker than suspected!) and I for sure ovulated two follicles!!

Trying not to get too excited, but these are all great signs! One more week to go...
