Taking Charge of Your Fertility

  • One more step back

    Well I thought I was depressed this morning. That's nothing compared to how I feel now after having met with the RE this morning. I never even asked her about the lack of temp shift or charting because I was slapped across the face with an FSH of...
  • One step forward, two steps back

    That's how I feel this whole journey has been. I haven't written since my IUI because I've been too depressed. After waiting and waiting and waiting and being SO excited to finally do a Clomid + IUI cycle, I'm pretty sure the cycle is...
  • My first (and hopefully only IUI) - check!

    So today was my first IUI - well technically an FSP but no one seems to be familiar with FSP on these boards, or maybe the terms are just used interchangeably. This morning the alarm went off at 6:45 and (TMI) I provided DH with a little "encouragement"...
  • My month in infertility

    (I'm really just writing this because I find it amusing, but I feel the need to preface it by saying that I know it's only HALF as much as many of you are going through with your cycles! Here's hoping it's a lucky month for all of us!...
  • Good news at CD14 u/s

    My CD14 ultrasound was today! And I got great news. My lining is perfect and I have one beautiful 22mm follicle! I nearly fell off the table when the nurse said, "OK so your IUI will be Sunday morning and you'll trigger tonight." AUGH!!...
  • All clear!

    My HSG was today and PHEW - my tubes are clear! I was pretty confident they were clear since I did get PG in August. But the doc was never able to rule out ectopic, and so my RE strongly encouraged the HSG. It wasn't bad at all. I was surprised at...
  • Oh happy day

    Things are looking up. Finally. I left my first RE appointment in November devastated because the doc wanted me to take a cycle off from Clomid while we did diagnostic tests, in addition to mentioning skipping straight to IUI with injectables. Combine...
  • It finally caught up with me

    Eighteen months of infertility and one miscarriage finally caught up to us, and DH and I had our first fight yesterday morning. And I don't mean our first fight about IF, I mean our first fight ever. In eight years together. It happened before I went...
  • No miracle for me

    I'm 13DPO this morning and my temp has plummeted. I so desperately hoped I'd get a BFP this cycle so I wouldn't have to make all these decisions about the RE and testing and money. It's not going to happen. So now it's decision time...
