Hmmmm

Because 'things going right' and 'trying to get pregnant' don't seem to go together in my life I had yet another WTF moment this time. We went in for the IUI only to be told our donors counts were super low, almost as bad as that awful vial from Manhattan Cryobank. They told me the count was 9.8 million with a 33% motility. This is the same donor that had given us 80 million with 60% motility in the past. I was ready to start crying right there.
I called Midwest yesterday and explained the situation - they were as shocked as I was. They agreed to get ahold of my RE's office and figure it out. Unlike manhattan cryo I didnt have to keep calling and wait three weeks only to be told they weren't going to honor their guarantee because they had some made up clause they never told me about and wasn't on their website. They think (and I hope) that sperm takes a few minutes to 'perk up' after being thawed and that by the time we did the IUI the counts were actually quite a bit higher, around 20 million. We decided to see how the cycle plays out and figure it out from there.
So, we're back in a confusing holding pattern and praying for the best. In the mean time my exam is a week from Friday and I'm far from prepared so I'm just going to focus on that for now.
