I have a week from tomarrow to find out if my third IUI try worked. I know a lot of us know how long 2 weeks is. It feels like a life time. Here are some things I learned through my journey playing the waiting game.
:) Pray everyday: I learned that if I tried to deal with this all on my own I would have gave up on our first try.
:)Don't be afraid to live your day to day life: I know after my first IUI procedure it was hard to do daily things. It was always in my mind "If I go for a walk it may reduce my chances of this working" I know it may sound silly, but I did that with everything. It really made it that much harder to face the facts after that two week waiting period. Sometimes (I know it's hard) you just have to tell yourself not to think about it.
:)Talk to someone: I am so greatful that I have a wonderful husband as a sounding board. Also I am so glad that I found this website. Talking about my feelings, my fears, and my sometimes my sadness really helps get that 10 ton elephant of my shoulders.
I hope it helps knowing that you are not alone in the waiting game. Keep praying and stay strong.
