IUI Support

Hi everyone, AF arrived yesterday (11 days late!) Based on my progesterone level at 7dpo the doctor didn't think I ovulated a viable egg last month. It was so disappointing especially since I am using a donor and really only have enough money for three or four tries.
Since my first IUI was a bust, I am getting everything lined up for my 2nd this month. I'll be taking clomid on cd 5 - 9 and starting opks on cd12. Last month I was super excited and happy to set everything up and get the ball rolling. This month I only feel sadness and really intense dread. I hate the idea of seeing my doctor for the insemination (which is ridiculous she is very nice) and I don't even want to talk to the nurses on the phone. Calling the doctors office and SB was a major ordeal for me and left me feeling full of anxiety all day. I don't understand why I feel this way and I wished i felt better and optimistic about the whole process. On a side note nearly every pharmacy in town was out of Clomid and it is back ordered apparently. It took forever to find one that could fill my prescription. I feel like that is how my whole cycle is going to go.
