Fertility Clinic 101

Sooooo, IUI #3 will have to wait. Apparently we are paying thousands of dollars so they can "miss" my cycle. Long story but I will try to explain for those that are interested. Every cycle I have to wait for the dr. to tell us what she recommends once I start my period. So after several "failed" cycles at ART she decided to put me on Letrozole which is supposed to make a better ovulation (even though I ovulate regularly on my own.. but whatever). Anywho, so I took the letrozole days 3-7 of my cycle- which the side effects were MUCH better than clomid.. but still annoying none-the-less. Then they tell me to start the ovulation test kit on day 10. So this past Saturday night after being out with friends, I came home and took one of the tests close to midnight.. and I had a surge. I call the dr's office and have to come in the next morning (on a Sunday- which costs extra by the way) to get an ultrasound and blood work which will determine how close I am to ovulation. The nurse then goes on to tell me that I am not quite ready. Come back Tuesday. Andy steps in and reminds her that I am a "fast ovulater" according to my past few cycles (they almost "missed" one before). She looks at us like we don't really know what we're talking about and doesn't seem to give any credence to what we're saying. Day 10 IS extremely early, even for me, so I am trusting her at this point. That brings us to this morning, Tuesday. Go in.... get one of the lab technicians (would it be so hard to get a nurse or nurse practitioner to do the u/s?!).. she looks confused- calls in a nurse practitioner...they sit and stare.. "we should look at her chart from Sunday".. well that sounded like a grand idea to me. (Oh and little tid-bit.. every time we go in our last name is spelled differently on the u/s screen..$$$$ for this kind of treatment?!!) I'm getting tired just writing all this so let me just wrap it up... they MISSED my dang ovulation. So frustrating when you are paying to be watched. I know this happens to people dealing with fertility all the time- but it was my first- and not very fun. Every month seems like forever. So here we go again. I guess I should leave this on a good note though... we did have "spontaneous sex" (which doesn't happen very often when your trying to get preg!) on Saturday night so maybe just maybe we will have a miracle baby..... and to end on not just a good note but a GREAT note.. God is Good and I'm thankful we know that... and thankful we know HIM.
