I have been to the doctors office 6 times this week, man this baby makin' stuff is much more complicated than I thought it was. I got pregnant with my son on the pill a few months after we got married then started trying a year later after he was born. Its been 2 years and still nothing...... I am really excited and have super high hopes that all this fertility stuff will work. I'm scared to have so much hope cause I know I get my hopes up so high that its a long way down afterward. We are on clomid for the first time and had an IUI both Friday and saturday night. Got that shot to make my eggs drop and through the ultrasound we know I have 3 eggs that are the right size and 2 smaller ones. The doctor is so optimistic about it saying this is the month but I know the Lord might have a different plan, we'll see.

My husband said "I'm gonna be a little sad when we get pregnant cause then you are not going to want to have sex all the time anymore". haha I think the sex will be better because it will not be so functional and planned and we "have" to do it this week-like. Anyway wish us luck! I pray we will all have our names on the success list sooner than later:)

The Next Step

By Dirk and Trish -
After my laparoscopy in June for endo, the dr. gave us 3 months to get pregnant. Well, 3 months is up, so today we met with the specialist to decide what to do next. We were given three choices (I know many of you have been there, just wanted to give some info for newbies). Option 1 is clomid and IUI (~$650/cycle), Option 2 gonadotropins (I think it was $3000-5000/cycle), Option 3 IVF (~$14,000/cycle). The dr. recommended, and we had previously discussed, option 1. The prices are just what I was told, so they probably are not standard. I just find it helpful to have some idea what I'm up against, so thought I'd include it in case it gives someone else a baseline to work from.We missed out on timing for this cycle, so we actually have 1 more try at the old fashioned method, then we start clomid next month. Apparently the chances of a procedure working are best in the first 3 months, so we're really hoping this next step is it.

My next approach

I thought I'd share a couple of things I'm going to try next. I wish I was posting this because I had been successful with one of them, but some of them state they take up to 3 mos. so I don't want to wait until then to tell you about it, in case one of you wants to try one of these things sooner, with me! These are some things I've been researching, and gathering info about, because they are less drastic than some of the medical approaches. Other things I like about them is that they are geared towards becoming healthier-so even if you don't get pregnant, you're not out anything, and you may have gained some other benefit, like eating better. Last but not least, though there is some expense involved, I think it will still be cheaper than some of the diagnostic testing and procedures. Here are some of the things I am thinking about trying... A fertility diet: I learned about this from a co-worker. She used fertility for her first child, and it didn't work th...
