Third iui fail, what next

Sadly tested negative today on my third IUI. Planning to move to IVF next but unfortunately the clinic doesn’t have an available IVF consult with a doctor until June 10. Was thinking of just doing another IUI as to not waste a cycle but…

…. The last round of IUI went really poorly. After my husband administered the trigger shot I passed out and we had to go to the ER. The er did not know what went wrong, suggested that I was maybe dehydrated. When I got my IUI a day and a half later it took over an hour for someone at the clinic to get the catheter to my cervix… it was terrible. I really don’t know what went wrong because the first two IUIs were so easy.

On top of that I think clomid has thinned my uterine lining — each IUI it has gotten worse going from 7 to 4. My follicles have also been smaller each IUI cycle, the last cycle I only had one measuring 12mm that they hoped would mature by the time of the IUI.

I guess I’m just writing this because I feel guilty not doing another IUI while I waited for the IVF consult… but reflecting on it it seems like my body is pissed off and needs a break. I worry that if I couldn’t handle IUI how will I ever handle IVF. Ugh this sucks so bad.
