Shared Journey HOME

Hey Heather, I'm in the 2ww of a clomid 50mg and IUI cycle, we have also decided that we can't afford to do other types of procedures so this is it. The nurses that did this last IUI seemed very optimistic about my chances this time around, unlike my first try which was without clomid ( and the old man only had 8.7 million swimmers to work with :( ). This last cycle he had 24 million and after washing they were all happy and perky :) . The ovulation predictor kits are easy to use and very accurate, this last round I tested positive on the Thursday afternoon and did IUI Friday morning, I ovulated with a vengence Friday night ( I would swear those eggs were comparable to Grade A Large ). According to my schedule by tracking days I had thought I would ovulate on Saturday so the test kit was a better method, the drugs can throw off your timimg ( according to the nurses I spoke to ). My doc. told me that even though we hope the first try is going to work it is usually a "test" run to see how our bodies respond to all the procedures and if we get a BFP it is more a luck thing than an expected one. Not that it made the 2ww any easier but I didn't go through the major depression when I had to start over again. And as the nurse said on the first try it only takes one egg and one swimmer to make a baby....

Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

Thanks for the information and hope Lynne.

I took 100 mg of clomid. I have been on 3 rounds of clomid before 1 that was 50 mg and I did not ovulate. The 3rd round at 100 mg gave me a cyst. I hear that he IUI with the clomid will bump up the chances.

Yesterday was day 9 and I did the lh predictor kit and it was a nice clear negative. What brand of predictor kit do you use? Sometimes it seems unclear when it is a positive.

I should be on the 2WW with you soon!

I am 29 and this will be my first child. I have to step kids, 5 and 7 that I love a lot but I would certainly like to have a biological child.

Let me know how this works for you!

Baby dust to everyone!

Hi Heather,
the ovluation test kit I'm using is called "Day Ten", it is labelled such since the box suggests that you start testing for ovluation at day 10 to ensure you do not miss it. it is similar to the hpt tests that it has 2 indicator lines one for if the test was done properly and one for ovulation. It actually was not the one my doc reccomended but it was half the price ( 22$ instead of 45$). I've been told to test in the afternoons ( between 12 and 6 pm) and if I get a positive I have IUI the next morning. It is a kind of hit and miss since my clinic is not open on weekends so if you ovulate on the weekend you are screwed for that cycle ( they will do IUI on Friday or Monday to try and play the odds).

I can't wait for Friday to come then I wish it would not come because I would rather not know then deal with a negative again. The old man and I talked over breakfast and decided we would run 5 more IUI"s with clomid and then be done. Statistically I will be pregnant or not, and emotionally it's just getting to be to much, ( never mind the associated costs, test kits, drugs, time off work for appts, the IUI itself). That and the clomid causes me weight gain, I regularly work out at the gym and watch my eating but I just can't keep up with it although I know from experience that the weight comes off almost as fast as it went on after I go off the clomid for a couple months.

I've got to go wash my daughters hair so I best be going.

I can't say that I have seen a test called day 10. It sounds like it is similar to the one I take.

I use Clear Blue Easy. It is very expensive. It costs me around $20 for a box of 7 tests. The last two tests on days 9 and 10 have been very clear. My tests do a lot better with the clomid. Today is day 11 and I am still not expecting a positive but I will test again. My clinic will see me on the weekend if I am positive. The on call doctor just goes to the hospital and does the IUI. I wished that I was positive for the weekend so that I would not have to miss work.

How are you feeling? Have you noticed anything different? Although with clomid it is difficult to tell. This Friday is coming up soon. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I would love to hear more stories of positive results with an IUI.

My doctor said that clomid works in groups of 3. If it does not work the first 3 times it probably will not. So I have had the first 3 rounds without IUI and then she tries 3 rounds with IUI and that is all she will do. Then I would get sent to a fertility specialist.

I hate this weight gain as well. There is no stopping it. I had just lost the weight I gained the last time I was on it. Now I can feel it again already. It will be all worth it if I can get pregnant.

Enjoy your day! Hopefully you have beautiful sun to be enjoying to make the day pass faster to Friday.

reply

Thanks Heather,

I guess all doc's agree that statistically you should be pregnant with in 3 tries if it is going to happen, since we pay for everything anyway the clinic will let us try as many times as we want, although after 6 tries I would figure it's not going to work. Originally my doc had me try 7 months of clomid 3@50mg, 4@100mg, with timed sex ( takes all the fun out of it), the sad part of all that other than not concieving was how sick I was for most of 2005. The clomid doesn't just make me feel horrid while I take them, for the entire cycle I'm out of sorts. The weight gain is a pain in the butt, I am a member of a bellydance troupe and we are practicing weekly , and preforming throughout June and July, what a time to be sick and fluffy ( interesting bellyrolls :) ). Luckly I don't work so I can relax during the day and do everything at a slow pace so that I can survive the whirlwind evenings and weekends ( my daughter has dance classes aswell so I'm out almost every evening). And this time of year is dance competitions for her aswell.

As you can see I'm rambling on to avoid the housework, dishes and laundry are waiting and I've promised the old man new bedroom curtains ( he's tired of the sheets up now). I should clean Cypris's room before I lose her in there altogether ( I can't see the floor in there, something might eat her). Let me know how your IUI goes, the procedure is easy, but make sure they warm up the speculum or it can be a shock :0

Hey Lynne,

I got my positive surge tonight. Day 13 so that is great. I should ovulate on day 14 which I am hoping means the medicine worked well. It was a very clear positive and I like that.

I am waiting for the doctors office to call me back with all the information. I am so excited to get this new process going. A little hope goes a long way.


Sounds like you have busy days. You live in an area that is so beautiful. I have thought about moving up to Canada but it is so difficult to find a job and move that far. You are very lucky to live in such a scenic area.

I pray that both of us will soon be growing due to a little one instead of these meds.

~Heather

reply

Well I'm having a rough morning.... I would have hpt'd on Friday and done the bloodwork on Monday but it's only Wed. and I'm spotting a bit, if I hold true to form I'll be crampy tonight and af will hit hard by Friday. So much for Mother's day this year. I just don't get it... why isn't this working? All of the tests show that I should be able to have kids, and I've had a successful pregnancy in the past. Maybe it's the water... :(

As I look out the front window this am I can finally see blue sky, after the past few days of clouds and rain, perhaps the nicer weather will help my get through the next few days, I'll get outside and mow lawn, anything to keep me busy and my mind on other things.

thanks for letting me vent, I hope it works out better for you, I guess I'm starting the clomid 50mg again on the weekend.

Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

I am sorry to hear AF sounds like it is starting. Now I have also heard of implantation bleeding if it is slight???

I don't know why this happens when every test comes out normal. That is what is so frustrating. At least if we knew what the problem was we could fix it.

I just got done with the IUI. It was more painful than expected because my cervix did not want to participate. She had to use these clamps a lot which caused a lot of pain.

I used the 100mg of clomid and I think I did ovulate. Not sure what else will work.

Baby Dust to you and try to keep busy...
~Heather

reply

Thanks Heather, my oldman isn't home from work yet and I wish I had better news for him, I got lucky today and a girlfriend picked me up and carted me to her place for the day so I had a friend and that helped. I do ovulate naturally but with the clomid I should have better odds with more eggs. Yes I've heard about implantation bleeding but this is following the af pattern so well that I'm pretty sure this is a writeoff. Atleast I will be over the worst of the moaping before the family activities on the weekend. I don't want to be the stick in the mud at the BBQ, most of the family really doesn't understand what's going on and I don't feel like trying to explain it to them. I'm so greatful that I can talk here with people that know what I'm going through and I don't have to pretend that I'm fine. Thankyou so much for listening too me. I'll check in later.

Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

I agree, we are very blessed to have a group of people that understand.

The girl who does my hair told me to call her one way or another and I told her I would call if it was positive and she said no either way if it is no we can eat chocolate together as she sits there pregnant and complains all the time that she does not like being pregnant. Some people really don't understand and I am glad that they do not have to because I would not wish this rollercoaster ride on anyone.

The pain is gone today and now I am on my two week wait. This is always such a long two weeks. I want to try to do all things relaxing. A couple of people have told me that a cervix that is difficult to open might be some of my problem, I am not sure if that is true. And because everything is so tipped back in my body. But I sure do like to grasp any hope that can be sent.

Well, this is your second time with clomid/iui combo right? They say it is like 30% chance each time so hopefully you will catch the odds on this next round. Is your daughter excited about a new brother or sister?

Take care and try to garden or something to keep things off your mind. I am going to do the same. We are having beautiful weather although it keeps looking like it could rain but it is said to be a great Mother's Day weekend. I understand the stick in the mud thing. I have been one way too many times in the last year during events. If I just stay quiet I figure I won't cry and then most people won't ask me questions. It is so hard to manage this up and down. Now you have to build yourself back up to the up and hopeful.

Take Care,
Baby Dust up to you...
Heather

Morning Heather, yes my daughter wants a baby brother quite badly, she figures that if I have a girl then she will be expected to share her stuff. I've warned her that we don't really get a choice and with there being such an age gap that she will not have to share much more than mom's time. We have an extra bedroom ( it's currently my sewing room) so no sharing needed. It seems funny that we are so prepared for a baby that might not happen, I did not have this much preparation for Cypris and I when had her she was not a "maybe in the future" hope like where I am now. Heck we already have names sort of picked out, and Jeff and I have decided that we will only go through one pregnancy and then we are done having children, so I'm kind of hopeing for twins so that I can have 2 more kids not just 1. Although at this stage anything would be a dream come true.

30% seems like so much, I hope the odds are good for us on the next round, after the next cycle we are going on holidays to my uncle's cabin so I will miss the next cycle if the one I am now on doesn't pan out. ( I started the clomid today). But I am almost looking forward to a normal cycle ( with out the drugs and mood swings).

It's raining tday and I have a training program at the YMCA so I'm in for a wet walk in a bit. Cypris might get a ride to school today from the neibour when she drives her daughter to school ( usually the kids walk together in the morning, and while I have no car for rainy days the neibour will drive them before she leaves for work).

I have found that keeping busy makes the 2ww easier, I volunteer at the YMCA and I've taken up crocheting ( 2 blankets, one scarf, lots of unfinished projects so far). My house has not been this clean since my last round of fertility treatments, ( where the heck did all these clothes come from, and why do I have all these dusty niknaks). I do spend time with friends but I also value time to myself when I can get in an occasional cry without anyone watching, ( funny how that can make you feel better but it does for me). I think we just get so frusterated with this process that we need to vent and atleast out pillows are not judgemental or trying to fix things or trying to give advice ( if I hear " you just need to relax" one more time someone might get blasted, if it was that easy would I be going through this right now?) .

Well I best get my butt in gear and get the rugrat off to school so that I can get on with my day. Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Hey,
First time for me.
My husband and I have been TTC for several years now. I got pregnant w/ no med's in June of 2004 and miscarried Oct 2004. I started clomid 100mg the first day of my last period, which was 04/28/06. On 05/9/06 I went for an ultrasound and had two follicles 20+ and two 14-17. I had a LH surge that evening. I was instructed to give my self a shot of HCG that evening around 11:30. I had an IUI on 05/11/06 @ 11:30 am. We're keeping our fingers cross that things go well the first time.

reply

Lynne,

How was your weekend?

I was down this weekend so didn't write much. Another Mother's Day come and past without a biological child. My step children were gone at their birth mom's for the day but we had them back in the evening and they did some great catering for me.

We then went to see a friend that just had their baby on Wednesday. It never ends.

So, I am only 5 days from my IUI. I still have 9 more days not counting today to wait. This two week wait is so difficult. I wish someone could come out with a test that would allow you to know earlier. I am just trying to stay relaxed.

Susan, what is an HCG shot? Did they resolve the mc issue for you? I am so scared of that happening. I hear it is very common with the first pregnancy.

Baby Dust to everyone,
Heather

reply

Hi Heather, the weekend was good, I was lazy and did not get any house work done till this morning. ( Which is a good thing because the furnace cleaners will be here tommorrow.) Cypris had a dance festival on Mother's day so I didn't get the usual brunch and shopping treatment I usually get, it seemed like almost every other day around here. I've got this long todo list to work with and I just got a phone call to go out for lunch, ( of course that means I need to take a shower and get beautiful), so much for my todo list for today. Atleast I have dishes done, laundry going, bathrooms cleaned, floors swept, animals looked after..... ( can you tell that I'm a morning person? ).

One of the girls that I have danced with in the past had her baby shower this weekend ( Gwen is 6 weeks old), and while I sent her a homemade blanket when she came home from the hospital I was suprised that I didn't get an invitation to the shower. I'm not sure if I was forgotten or if they wanted to "spare me the pain", either way I was a bit hurt about it but life goes on. Then on the other hand another of my friends took my af this weekend harder than I did, holy crap I ended up comforting her.... how does that make any sense?

Well nine more days... you will survive, sometimes I wish we could know sooner but that 2ww is about how long you need to get implantation and you are not pregnant till then so knowing that the egg and sperm met would be a frusterating hope since as we have learned any thing can happen. Ive got my next IUI scheduled and am almost done this round of clomid ( which is great since it makes me so ill, I feel bad all cycle but while I take the pills is the worst). I best get ready to go for lunch, ( can't go in my jammies :) ). I'll check in tonight and see if you survived the day.

Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Hey Lynne,
HCG: Human Chorionic gonadotropin or a trigger shot to induce ovulation. I had Clomid day 1-5 & then took the trigger shot on day12 in hopes that I ovulated on day 14. I wish there was a way to tell if I actually "O" on that day or if an egg was release at all. This wait is the pitts. I've feel crampish, but it may be due to the meds. I keep check my bbs for soreness. I'm gonna make them tender by checking them so much.

The miscarriage was due to a chromosome defect. I'm 39 years old. There is an increase in chromosome defects when you reach a certain age. There's only a 1% chance that it will happen again.

Wishing babies for all ::)

Susan

reply

Wow I definately know when I ovulate, the clomid make me have multiple eggs and holy smokes is it painful, you would think with so many eggs popping out of there that one would catch.... I do use an ovulation test kit to ensure that I go in for the IUI on time, the last cycle I went for IUI in the morning and ovulated that afternoon and evening.

Brest soreness will not nessesarily be that great an indicator, I've been so tender some months that I can barely stand to wear a bra, and so far af keeps visiting. I think it is all the hormones we are on, our bodies are retaliating.

It's bed time so I best get going, night everone.

Baby dreams too us all. Lynne.

reply

Good Morning,

Hope both of you are well and thinking good positive baby thoughts...

So, Susan is Clomid not helping you ovulate? My doc has not mentioned this trigger shot. I might ask althought clomid seems to be helping me ovulate just fine.

I am with you Lynne, if breast soreness was a sign of pregnancy I would have been pregnant many times over on this clomid. This time I have not had it but I have other times.

I don't get the pain when I ovulate even on clomid. I have heard others say they do as well. That has always worried me that I am really not ovulating but that does not seem to be the case.

Well, one more day down. 8 days to go. It seems so long. I feel like my step kids when they want something and I tell them to be patient that it is really not that long. Now look at me...

I wish there were more symptoms to look for. I am still having lower back pain since the IUI. I keep thinking of calling in and asking about it but I think it is getting a little better.

Take Care,
Heather

reply

Afternoon Ladies, I wouldn't worry about feeling or not feeling ovulation, I chatted with one of the nurses and she said that some women can feel it and some women got lucky ( cramps suck) and don't feel it or perhaps they don't realize that that slight cramp ( some times it is barely noticable) is ovulation. When I'm not on clomid my ovulation can feel like a pulled muscle ( I belly dance so those muscles get a work out), or even "gas cramps"( way too much inf :) ). Becuse we are looking for symptoms of pregnancy we read every twinge as a sign. it makes for a long 2ww.

8 days to go Heather, you will survive. Today was my last clomid pill for this cycle ( thank god that's over for the month). I was a good girl and mowed lawn today, keeping busy, waiting to grow some new eggs ( I swear I'm a giant chicken... buck buck ). I need a holiday....

I'm guessing that Susan you are using the hcg trigger to help you ovulate, from what I've understood Heather you didn't need this extra boost to get some eggs moving, I did not need the trigger shot either but it is not an uncommon thing, when you go through the posts on this site you will find that alot of women have to have it.

And once again I am rambling to avoid the house work, ( the laundry is calling...) Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Morning ladies,

Hope all is well today. It is a beautiful day here in Oregon. We are getting temperatures up to 90 degrees. That is unusual for here but we are taking advantage of it. I would like a good rain though and I hear we will get that this weekend.

Today I have 7 days more to wait. Today is my day 21 so I need to go get my progesterone test done. I hate getting blood taken but I am excited to see if I ovulated. I am pretty sure I did. I think that is the only reason for that test. I wish they could do an accurate pregnancy test but I guess it takes the full 14 days for you to really be pregnant. I think I have thought about every ache, twinge etc that possibly that is a sign.

Take Care,
Heather

reply

Morning Heather, We woke up to bright blue skies and it's already 19 degrees celcius ( I don't really know the farenheight scale), Cypris has a dance competition this afternoon so I'm looking at a hectic day. I ended up missing the school volunteer tea since it is also this afternoon ( they feed us, water us, and give a gift).

I'm about a week away from my next IUI procedure, I am hopeing the odds are with me... I'm getting tired of the rollercoaster ride we are on. And it would be nice to have a BFP before we go on holidays and see all the relatives. That and not getting af while gone would be a great added bonus.

The old man went shopping yesterday... new tires for the car and 900$ later I'm not sure if we are going to be able to go for holidays if I can't make that up before we go. But it did need to be done, I wouldn't want to have problems on the trip. And yep I'm rambling again to avoid folding clothes, dishes are already done.

Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Morning,

Have you guys seen the website http://www.twoweekwait.com

I found it yesterday and loved it. They had a lot of information on the different symptoms different people have had during the tww from nothing to a lot of things. They also had a couple of very cute other stories in there.

Lynne, I am sure this would be a great way to avoid the house work to read this site. :)

Well, 6 days to go and counting and praying and fingers crossed.

Lynne, I am guessing you are done with the clomid now. I am sure you are glad about that.

I am tired of this rollar coaster too. Everyone asks why I am not more positive but after you have been let down so many times, month after month it is difficult to keep really positive.

Take care,
Baby Dust to All

reply

Hi ladies,
I've had a problem loggin on. I hope you girls are doing well today.

I haven't had a problem "O". The doctor wanted me to take the shot so that he could time the o better for the iui. This was the first time on Clomid. I took it 1-5 & I've not heard of this before. Most take it 3-7 or 5-9. Anyway, I hope it worked. Yesterday I had a little pink discharge. Today it's gone. I'm hoping it was implantation. Yesterday was 6-dpo. I took hpt yesterday, just to see if the shot was out of my system & it was neg. I'm not going to be able to hold out for 7 more days. I'm planning on testing again on Sun.....I can't help myself :)

Susan

reply

Hey Susan,

We are pretty close on dates. Yesterday was my 7-dpo. I have not noticed any pink discharge but I hear that is a great sign. Are you having any other signs. I am having a lot of lower back pain but I don't know whether it is from doing more gardening to stay busy or what.

I would love to do a hpt but I keep thinking it will depress me. I have heard that anything before dpo-14 is probably inaccurate so I am trying to hold out. I have heard there are tests where you can check earlier.

~Heather

Good to know about the shot. I am not sure if just a regular ob will do that.

reply

Hey,
Yeah we're right there together. When do you go back to the Dr? Are you going to an ob or fertility spec?

My bbs have been sensitive the last couple of days. Not really sore, but tingle. The right more than the left.....kinda funny. I have an ache feeling in my lower abdomen. Not really cramps. Kinda like af will come on. I've never really had cramps w/af. Nothing else really. I've had two children from a previous marriage & then the mc in Oct. It's funny how you forget about the signs of being pg.

I hope things go well for you.

Susan

reply

Hey Ladies, Well we have survived another day of waiting, somehow I ended up with 4 kids in my back yard ( just turn on a sprinkler and they magically appear). It's so hot today that I don't really want to cook anything so that the house stays cool, maybe just sandwiches tonight.

I do clomid day2-6, i'm guessing that it doesn't really make that much of a difference and the doc's do what has worked for them in the past. And yep I'm done the pills for this month, and I'm wishing that it will be the last time. Sometimes it would be nice if this was less stressful and it is hard to get really excited because we have already learned that it's a hard fall if you get bad results. I try to give myself a day of grief before I get back up and rejoin the world, I don't really have time to mope around longer then that with all the other things that go on around here.

I'm wishing for the best for you ladies... give me some good news before my next IUI. Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Evening Ladies,

Well, yes, another day survived. I have tried to keep busy through gardening tonight. They are expecting some rain tomorrow night so I mowed the lawn real quick and did some weeding. I am feeling a bit blue tonight for some reason. I do not have any of the symptoms that I hear others have at this time and it makes me think I am heading for another disappointment. It is so difficult after having been on this ride for so long to keep up faith.

Hopefully tomorrow I will feel better and be back to ready to see what happens.

Susan, I am seeing an OB/GYN. If this does not work after 4 times I will go to a fertility specialist. I am hoping to not have to it is so expensive. IT sounds like you are getting all the right symptoms of pregnancy. It will be great if it works for you because anytime that gives me hope it might work on another round.

Well, baby dust dreams to us all.
~Heather

reply

Good morning ladies,

I hope all's well today.

I read an article that stated 24% of women on clomid d1-5 conceive. If accurate, that precentage rate is pretty high. Considering women with no known fertility problem has a success rate of 20-25%. Anyway, I hope this will be the last month for each of us.

I'm seeing a fertility spec. I don't believe the cost is much higher or any higher than an OB. I paid the spec. right @ $500.00. Of course this is my first iui & first time on meds. They say the majority of woman don't conceive with the 1st iui. I'm hoping I'm in the minority.

Lynne, do you know yet when they will time your iui? 24 or 36 hrs? Or, are you having two, one @ 24 then the other later?

Susan

reply

Morning Ladies,

I only get one shot at the IUI at about 12-24 hours before I ovulate ( last time it was closer to 8 hours preovulation). Then they recommend some fooling around that evening and the next day to cover all the bases. I'm kind of glad I'm up here doing all this stuff, I'm seeing a specialist ( including all tests) and it's covered under our medical system, all I have to cover is the cost of the actual swimmer washing and IUI procedure ( 160 $ ) , and of course the test kits ( 20-30$ for 5) and clomid ( 30$/5@50mg), I know the old man complains about the cost but I have seen that it could be much worse.

Well I get to enjoy the long weekend and then it looks like IUI on Tuesday morning, I'm so hopeing third times the charm... :) . Sometimes I think I'm nuts to be trying for this again since my daughter is almost 10 and fairly independant, I can go out and do stuff without to much worrying about babysitters and such. But the old man wants a biological child and I would like to enjoy a pregnancy instead of stressing and working and not taking care of myself like my last pregnancy ( how Cypris came out so healthy and happy I don't know). I think that we are not so stressed because I have a child and if we can not concieve even after all this atleast we can share Cypris. We have decided not to adopt since that is not really what we are doing this for ( it is an option for many ).

Well my little brother just showed up so I best get my butt in gear. Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

My children are 17- soon to be 18 and 14 yrs. Sometimes I think I've lost my mind. I'll be starting over again, that's for sure. We want this so badly. I'm with you on adoption. I've been blessed with two wonderful, beautiful, healthy boys. If God doesn't bless us with another, We'll survive.

Susan

reply

Hey Susan, sometimes I feel for the women who have never had the experience of carrying a child have a harder time dealing with this rollercoaster. In alot of ways we have it "easier" since we have our memories to carry us through the bad times. And we don't have as many pressures to concieve. That doesn't mean that I wouldn't be absolutely thrilled to have a baby but it is not as stressful when we don't get the news we hope for.

I've got to get out and pick up some more ovulation test kits for next week, and weather through the family stuff on Sunday ( the when are you two going to get married and have some kids, as if we haven't been trying, and after being together for almost 6 years what's the hurry with legalizing our marriage). Okay here I go venting again... I best just get going, already got rid of my brother this am, ( he wanted $), and Cypris is going to visit her father for the day, he should be here soon. I've got a YMCA training class to go to aswell, ( and I have to register for another class, so much for any extra spending $ this weekend).

Oops I should get dishes out of the way before I leave the house this am, I don't want to see them sitting there tonight when I go to make supper. Baby dreams to us all. Lynne.

reply

Morning,

It has been a busy work morning so this is the first chance I have had to write.

I am feeling better this morning after a good nights rest. I don't know why I just get more down than usual sometimes. I am not sure if it is all the hormones from the clomid???

Susan, I will go to a specialist if needed. We don't have any in our town so it would be an hour away and with work and 2 step children it is difficult.

I agree Lynne it is really difficult when you have not had one experience of having a child but I always think that is because I feel emotional. But I am sure it will still mean a lot to you both to have another one. You both know it is possible so that is great.

We are getting rain today so I am glad I did yard work last night. It is suppose to last all through the week so I don't need to water my lawn. It feels kind of nice.

Well, gotta pick up my step daughter at preschool. Get this next day down. Only 5 more days to go...
