Our Story...

My husband & I have been married for 8 years & have been trying to conceive for the last 7.5. I have PCOS and hubby has an ok count but it's not great. We've had several tests, procedures and consultations that have led us down the road to one heartbreak after another. Right now we are currently awaiting the birth of our baby girl due to the miracle that is adoption. We couldn't be more excited!!!

Hello in there....

Hello, is anyone in there.... *crickets* This is pretty much how my appt went this morning. I'm on CD10 of our first IUI w/injectables and was informed this morning that the dosage of meds they have me on is doing NOTHING! My largest follicle is at 7mm, it was 6mm on Friday. I'm not impressed.

So they were planning on inseminating this Friday but that has since changed since you know nothing is in there. So the date is getting pushed out which simply isn't good for me. We are going to Nebraska for a family reunion from 7/5 - 7/8.... which if you guessed is right around the time frame that they are now wanting to inseminate you would win the grand prize! - Not sure what I'm going to do about this situation.

Don't get me wrong, I would go to the ends of the earth to have a child(ren) but I'm just a little frustrated with getting up at 4:00 a.m. to drive 1.5 hours there and then back to work 3 times a week and it's been pretty much for nothing.

PS. Don't even get me started on the giant pain-in-the-ass it was to get the freaking meds here the first time and now I have to order MORE. plus the band-aid from the blood draw this morning gave me a rash. :(

Is anything in my life ever going to be easy.

It's go time!!!

Ladies and gentleman we are on the starting blocks and diving head first into the magical world of IUI with Injectibles!!!!!

This morning was my baseline bloodwork & ultrasound and the meds will be arriving by FedEx tomorrow morning to be started immediately.

To say I'm nervous is the understatement of the year. My family and doctor are all really paranoid about multiples and my.oh.my the consent forms I've had to fill out! but honestly I'm terrified it won't work at all.

We are praying like crazy that this will be the answer to our prayers! Please pray for us!
