My theory about that has always been this: I allowed myself to be doom and gloom with a few cycles and IUIs (No, it won't work. What's next?) and then I allowed myself to be positive with a few cycles and IUIs (Yes, this WILL work!). And what I found is that no matter which approach I took I always hurt the same. The pain of a failed cycle took as much of a toll on me when I was negative as when I was positive. So I decided from here on out that I would remain positive about every cycle b/c no matter what I do, it can't erase the pain.<br /><br />I 100% agree with everyone about the follie, too. I bet that 2nd one plumped right up and maybe is the special one that will be your baby :). I really, really hope so.<br /><br />Cheers to IUI #3, moving on, and getting this over with...with a BFP in 2 weeks :). xoSo-Calledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995728640451748880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370623155565789372.post-56398197642167033142011-01-14T10:22:46.533-08:002011-01-14T10:22:46.533-08:00I am going with LG here and holding out a crapload...I am going with LG here and holding out a crapload of hope for you this cycle. <br /><br />I know it's hard to let yourself be optimistic and believe...so we'll do it for you.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16239548717452353436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370623155565789372.post-2451058253443605122011-01-14T07:48:27.509-08:002011-01-14T07:48:27.509-08:00I love the positivity, and I am insanely jealous o...I love the positivity, and I am insanely jealous of those numbers.

On follicle ...Best of luck, I so hope LG is right!<br /><br />On follicle size, just wanted to say that it is unpredictable. I got pregnant with an itsy bitsy 17 mm follicle(seen on the morning of ovulation). Though the egg it released was missing an entire chromosome, it goes on to show you that size is irrelevant,bigger is not necessarily better. God only knows what is.<br /><br />You've got the right attitude, all we can do is try to find joy in the moment..thank god for the many distractions/diversions we have access to!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15553205805046479504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1370623155565789372.post-90890611809765186272011-01-13T17:59:58.144-08:002011-01-13T17:59:58.144-08:00How happy am I that LG said those words to you?
