DH and I went to our infertlity doc and he has advised us to do in vitro. Our cyle will start with my next AF which is due Saturday. I will then be on BC for three weeks and then the fun drugs begin. They think transfer of the embryos should be the week of November 10th (our anniversary week). They say that there is a 50% chance it will work and since I am under 35 I have a good chance. So, we wrote out our downpayment of a trillion dollars to begin this endeavor. They are really thorough. We even have to have counseling. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Tuesday, July 1st

Well since the last time I was here my husband got tested and we found out he has a low sperm count. We've made an appointment to see a urologist but of course since it's summer it is taking over a month to get in and see him. His count is too low even for IVF. So we are still waiting. . .

I had my laproscopy last Friday to remove a cyst which was the size of a tennis ball. I was worried I'd lose an ovary, never thought news would be worse. Dr. said that b/c of an appendectomy 5 years ago there is a ton of scar tissue -- too much for him to remove. He said that I have a ton of eggs and my tubes are not blocked on the inside, there is just too much scar tissue for the egg to go down the tubes and therefore I am high risk for ectopic pregnancy, if I can even get pregnant at all. He suggests that we look into IVF. Needless to say we're devistated. Not really what you want to hear. So, I am taking a break from the site to get my thoughts together. Hopefully I'll be back soon.

Friday, April 18th

My surgery is scheduled for April 25th. If the cyst is on the ovary then my Dr. will see if he can carve around the ovary and leave some tissue, if the cyst is in hte ovary then he will have to take the ovary and will leave the tube unless that is damaged and then he'll take that too.

Wednesday, April 16th

Got AF 1 day early this month. I really thought this would be our month. I was having breast pain and weird sensations and veins on my bb but I guess not. I had an ultrasound today and found out the cyst had grown so I am going to have it out. Hopefully it will be scheduled for next week sometime.

Tuesday, April 1st

I went to the Dr. today for a midcycle intrauterine ultrasound and found out that I have a few eggs growing. One of them is 5 mm and is too big (they like them about 2.5). He thinks it may be because of the Clomid but I have to go back again next month for another ultrasound after my AF to see if it shrinks because if it does then it is b/c of the Clomid. Also I have a thick lining so apparently that is good news. He said there is no reason we can't keep trying this month as I haven't ovulated yet (even though today is CD14). So, I guess, we'll continue to BD every other day.

Got my AF. Month 1 of Clomid . . . nothing. Same dosage for month 2

Wednesday, March 5th

Well, I went to the Dr. yesterday for my mid-month check up on my first round of Clomid. He said my CM was a good texture and that my left ovary was a little bigger than my right and everything looked good. He said most people don't get pregnant on their first month of Clomid, but there is no reason why we cant. He also said if I don't get pregnant and my period doesn't come on time that he'd bump up my dosage of clomid. Here's hoping that the 2ww wont be too treacherous!

Wednesday, February 20

I finally got AF today CD66 with the help of Progestrone. On Friday (day 3) I start Clomid. Hopefully it will work!

Monday, 4 Feb

I went to see my OB today. He thinks I have PCOS and gave me progestrone to start AF and then clomid for after that. Here `s hoping. Babydust.

Thursday, January 31

Well, today is CD 46 and no AF and no BFP. I have a doctors appointment on Monday so hopefully he will shed some light on the situation.

Tuesday, 22 Jan

I took another test this morning. Surprise! It was another BFN. Still no sign of AF. I have to pee ever time the I turn around and for the last few days I `ve feld nauseous in the a.m. Hopefully its a good sign and not my body reaking havoc on my psychy.

Monday, 21 Jan

Well I am 9 days late from AF. Starting to feel nausous. Spoke to friend who is a DO he said lots of women don `t show up on PT until 10 days late. Hopefully I will have a plus sign tomorrow!
