I'm gonna let ya all in on a little secret! Doing iui's is not considered a big deal in the RE world. However, to me, each and every one we did felt like a big deal. For the last two we even did injectables, just like if we were doing Ivf! Maybe I was naive in the beginning, but I'm not anymore and I think it's unfair that they aren't more important. I get that they cost way less than Ivf from a monetary standpoint, but they are equal in terms of an emotional investment.
Now let's be honest, by the time you get to the point of going to an RE, you more than likely will need more than just an iui. It just seems a bit unfair that they aren't considered more important but I guess you have to draw the line somewhere!?!?!? We have done four cycles with a total of seven iui's and have had three of them work, just not stick!
That's one injustice in the world that I've been thinking about while I've been sitting around waiting.
