We're on our own this month

Yesterday I had my first follicle scan for this cycle. It was cd13 so there wasn't much to see. The doctor found two follicles on the right at 9.5mm each. He found another one on the left at 12mm. My lining was pretty thin, only about 3.5mm. I'm wondering if this is due to the fact that I haven't been doing acupuncture for a couple months. So things are looking promising for this month. Now here comes the bad news: both of the doctors at Madigan will be out ALL next week so I get no more ultrasounds for cycle, nor can I have my IUI. I was a little bummed at that news but I immediately found the silver lining. This means that when Brandon comes home from his deployment we won't have to abstain in preparation for an IUI! We can just have intercourse. I don't say timed intercourse because that will all probably go out the window once he gets home. Hey, it's been 4 months, I'm just being honest. So at this point I have pretty much accepted the fact that we will not be getting pregnant this month. If we can't get pregnant from an IUI, sex is not going to do anything to help us. Instead I will just enjoy the holiday, enjoy spending time with my husband, and enjoy my upcoming vacations. If we get a BFP this month, then I'll give God the credit for our blessing. It's all in His hands now.
