IUI

So here goes for this week. I didnt see a surge over the weekend so I went to see Dr. Conrad on Monday April 28th. He did another u/s and my follicles had grown. The previous week there were 5 (7,7,10,12,13). On Monday there were 4 (15,16,16,22) so he gave me an HCG shot and on Tuesday the 29th we had our IUI!!! Today I am having cramps (kinda like period cramps) and THEY HURT!!! I called the dr. office to see if this is normal and I am currently waiting on a call back from them to see. I am patiently waiting out the 2 week wait. We will find out on May 16th if I am pregnant. ~~KEEPING FINGERS CROSSED~~ Will update then!!!

I HATE PCOS!!!

I took the clomid on days 3-7 and went to the Dr on Cd10 for my u/s. I had 5 follicles (7,7,10,12,13). The dr was not thrilled at all. He said for me to do OPK from Thursday until Monday and if I ovulate between then he will do the IUI over the weekend. But if I don't ovulate by Monday he is going to send me for a follicle study. I have taken 3 opk's so far and all have a faint blue line but it has to be dark double lines. I am so tired of trying to get pregnant. I am about ready to call it quits again. I guess we have to wait until Monday to see for sure what is going to happen. I will just keep praying. I am supposed to start the Repronex Injectables next month if I don't ovulate this month or have a successful IUI. So we will see what happens!!

SOOOOO FRUSTRATED!!!!!

Clomid AGAIN!!!

I started my cycle on April 14th and was THRILLED!!!! I called Dr. Conrad and he told me I needed to come in on cd3 for and ultrasound so we can get started on the Clomid again with the Metformin. I started the Clomid and took it on cd3-7. Today is cd8. I go on cd10 (wed 4-23 @ 8:45) for an ultrasound to see if the Clomid produced good sized follicules and depending on the outcome of the u/s we will do an IUI. I am trying my best not to get my hopes up but I want this so badly. The Clomid has made me real sick this time. I dont think I will be able to do another month of the Clomid. If it doesnt work this time we will have to go to the Injectables!!! So I will keep everyone posted!!!



Check back the end of the week for an UPDATE!!!

Awaiting My Cycle

Ok so I am supposed to start my period on Saturday April 5th. Im hoping it will start thursday so I can go to the doctor on Friday for an ultrasound or I hope it waits until Monday so I can go on Tuesday. I have to have an ultrasound done so I can start the Repronex injections. We are excited about starting to try to conceive again. I know the risk of mulitiples with the Repronex is extremely high (80% chance of 3+) but we have been trying for 2 years now and with the PCOS it is impossible to do it without the fertility drugs. I hope the repronex works on the first IUI so we dont have to go through more. I HATE needles. But anyway. I just needed to vent because I am sooo nervous. Thanks for reading!!!
