No IUI this month

Well my ultrasound yesterday showed that the follicles decided not to grow. So there will be no IUI for this month. The doctor suggested that I take a break next month and then we'll try again. I agreed. So for the next 6 weeks or so I have decided to take a break from acupuncture and fertility treatments. Instead I'm going to work on my diet and exercise and try to lose 6-10 pounds before we're ready to try again. Of course, that's based on the assumption that Brandon can freeze some good sperm samples before leaving in a few weeks. He will be deployed about 4 months so I will have to use frozen samples. I think we will try 2-3 more IUI's before giving up and moving on to IVF. For now I'm just going to worry about losing some weight and we'll see how things turn out in a few months.
