I was supposed to go in for ultrasound and bloodwork yesterday but due to the snow storm I tohought I was not going to be able to go ahead this cycle – but they left me a message for me to come in today and the nurse.called me later in the day to start the clomid tonight so today is cd 4 and I am beginning round 2 of clomid tonight – one thing I will have to call back on is that my nurse said I will have to but some OPK’s but last cycyle I was given a day to come in and had bloodwork and ultrasound – she advised me to start testing on 12/27 but This month seems strange already today is cd4 and I have only been spotting for 2 days now cd1&2 was full flow but now it stopped could that mean that maybe I will O sooner?

Today I was supposed to go in for CD#3 bloodwork and ultrasound but the snow storm started last night - not to bad but I don’t live by a main road , so trying to get to the dr office is out of the question- I am very upset because my Re’s office won’t let u start on the next cycle with out them telling you – In my heart I just want to take the clomid and see if by chance we can do it on our own – I mean it only take 1 right?

Hi all I have been MIA for a bit – we left on Saturday to SC for my DH’s uncle’s funeral – came back home at 415am on Monday. Had some symptoms and hope they were not psychosomatic was nauseas, lower abdominal cramps which them alternated by my ovaries- I am anxiously awaiting my bloodwork tomorrow – I did cheat and test on cd12 but it was - the onlything that got my hopes high was that it was an expired test and that it probably was too early – so we shall see tomorrow I go in at 6:30 am

I am holding out testing – I did feel like I was going to likethrow up 3 times while in my Boss’s office – she even said you dont look so good and sent me home – I have been having like more pressure than pain in the middle of the night and peeing more than usual – almost made a bee line to the pharmacy for a test but will just wait – we will be driving down south this weekend – DH’s uncle passed away (lung cancer) so I think we are leaving at 4:30 on Saturday -

12/5

here is to the 2ww!!!!

Had bloodwork done – the re’s office just called and said that my progestore is at 7 is this bad? they said too low AND for me to take another shot of ovidrel – guys I am freaking out please advise? has anyone ad to do this?

*******update*******
The nurse called back – she told me stay off google – that the reason why they rx 2 ovidrel shots a cycle is their protocol for when we test low progesterone – I am I believe I am 4dpo or 5 I went in on the 12/1 and had my trigger shot and iui, but had lots of ewcm on 12/2 when i went back for my second iui so I am not sure

Second IUI – had lots of EWCM – and went straight to work – will need to go in on Saturday for bloodwork to check progesterone

I found this on the internet ….

I am a religious person and my faith in what God means when he
gives people certain challenges has kept me going
through this ordeal. What do I think
God meant when he gave me Infertility? I think
he meant for my husband and I to grow closer,
become stronger, love deeper. I think
God meant for us to find the fortitude within
ourselves to get up every time infertility
knocks us down. I think God
meant for our medical community to discover
medicines, invent medical equipment, create
procedures and protocols. I think God meant
for us to find a cure for Infertility.
No, God never meant for me to not have children.
That’s not my destiny, that’s just a fork in the road I’m on.
I’ve been placed on the road less traveled,
and like it or not, I’m a better person for it.
Clearly, God meant for me to overcome my devestation,
guilt and sorrow in order to develop more compassion,
deeper courage, and greater inner strength on this
journey to resolution and I haven’t let Him down.
Frankly, if the truth be known, I think God meant
for me to build a thirst for a child so strong and
so deep that when that baby is finally placed in my arms it will
be the longest, coolest, most refreshing drink
I’ve ever known.

Today was my ultrasound and 1st IUI all I heard was size 20 on left 24 on right , 9 mm lining- ok see the nurse- I went in to see the nurse she gave me my shot of ovidrel and then sent me to Andrology – saw the girl who couldn’t find my specimen and she was very apologetic – waited about an hour for specemin to thaw and then had the IUI – the dr told me to lay for 10 min I stood 15 lol and then had to go to work – was a bit bummed that DH was not with me = got very emotional in the room by myself. Have another appt tomorrow at 7 am and then blood work to check progestone on 12/5 and then 2ww for blood work …. long day ladies I am mentally exhausted – have an online class tonight with paper due – have campus class tomorrow with homework due- still have a bit of cramping hopefully those spermies made it to their final destination – I actuallyy cried on the way home just thinking about the fact that we are using DS – like Ive thought about it alot but today it really sank in KWIM ok I am rambling need to find some food make sure DD is out of the tub and ready for bed so that I can finish my paper….
