*****TTC*an*Angel*****

November 20, 2008

Hello everyone. I am new to the site and just wanted to introduce myself. My dh and I are happily married and have been ttc our first child for a year and a half now. We are both young and healthy and just can't seem to figure out why this is happening to us. I am sure many of you can relate to those feelings.

I have tried different treatments, including a surgery and nothing seems to work. I am going to be starting my fourth round of clomid after Thanksgiving and I almost feel like, What is the point?

I guess I need to keep in mind that God has a plan for us all and when it comes time, he will bless me with my own angel :). Good luck to all of you and Babydust.

PS- If any of you are curretnly 8dpo or near let me know. I would really enjoy some cycle buddies.

November 20, 2008

aww thank you so much :) I love your name by the way LOL.

November 20, 2008

I will be 7DPO tomorrow. Have you had any symptoms or any changes that you think may be a sign of pregnancy?

November 20, 2008

Hi lilrayne :). Ummm lets see...I have had a constant cramping for a couple of days and that is about it really. I am on cd 28 and 8dpo. I had a +opk last Tuesday. How about you?

November 22, 2008

Hey ladies I am actually 11dpo today and on cd30 of a 34 day cycle. My back is killing me at this point and I am for sure it is a sign of AF about to show her nasty face. I have been a little upside down lately lol. I might go ahead and test in the morning but at this point I am not really counting on anything good happening. I will let you all know if I test lol. Good luck to you all!!

Best wishes with getting your miracle :)

Well 12dpo and bfn this morning....I probably will not test again this cycle because I was pretty upset this morning. I never tested once with my last cycle because I knew that it just wasn't going to happen. Grrrr I am soooo frustrated right now and need something else to focus on for awhile.

December 17, 2008

Ok I am adding to my journey makingbabyanderson lol!! I am now on my 4th round of clomid 150mg and metformin 2000mg. I am 3dpo and it is feeling very uneventful. I am going to have my progesterone drawn on monday and hope that it will be just as good or better than last time hehe. Last month I got a 22!!

December 17, 2008

Keep the posts coming Amanda!!

December 17, 2008

oh and good luck!!

December 17, 2008

I know I know I will do my best but I am a bit of a slacker these days lmao. I also took a 3 week break from here so you have to cut me a little slack there but not too much lmao.

December 23, 2008

So I gave in and tested early at 1am 9dpo lol. Of course it was negative but you know i just couln't help it this time. I just got my progesterone results back from my doctors office and bawled my eyes out for about a good hour. My levels that were rising with each cycle suddenly plummited. They went from 22 last month to 12.8 this month. The nurse said its still okay because you did ovulate but I know exactly what my Doc is going to say on Monday.....It needs to be a 15 or higher on a medicated cycle.

As for symptoms...my bb's are really getting sensitive. My shirt actually hurts them. Lots of snot like cm sorry tmi. Also the cramping is continuing so I am pretty sure AF is going to arrive right on time Sunday :(. I might be out this time around but good luck to everyone else :).

December 23, 2008

Oh...also dh is scheduled for his SA January 20th and I am going to ask about getting an HSG on monday at my appt. I have two more rounds of clomid to go before my Doc gives up on me lol. I might ask for a referral to an RE after this month as well.

Saturday at 03:09PM

LOL. Thanks hun. I know you will get your chance very soon. New Year and New Beginnings. I read on a website that there are lots of babies conceived in Oct-March. It is believed that those months are good for TTC. I hope so. I want to see Some more BFP's for this season. Baby Dust Amanda

I will def post some pics on January 14. I hope there will be a h/b I doubt it. I'll only be 6weeks. Well see.

Sunday at 01:51PM

You are too sweet Ash :). Even if there is not heartbeat yet.....You still get to see your little bean yay!!! I will just be beside myself when I get to see a little baby inside me :). I can't wait!! This whole ttc process really feels real now because I finally told my family what we were going through. They have been in the dark this entire time and now that the holidays are over and what not and I am on my 5th month of clomid....I figured ya know what am I waiting for lol. They all took it wonderful except my mom feels terrible now for giving me so much crap about having kids lol.

Sunday at 04:44PM

awww amanda. Help her understand that she didn't know. It's not a bad thing to want grand kids. She didn't know. I'm so happy you told your family. It's like a big sigh of relief huh. Wow what a big step. Congrats. Now the ttc part will feel less hard. You have more people rooting for you. That's such great news Amanda. I wish you the very best with all of this. I can't wait to see how things go for you this year. I now you will see your bean in your tummy very soon. Good Luck..... Baby Dust

Sunday at 09:47PM

I sure hope so :). You will have to keep me positive until then lol. It seems like clomid has its good days and then it also has its bad days. I am always fine when the week that I take my pills but then around O day I feel like I am severely depressed or something. Wierd huh... I think I am going to talk to the RE about that tomorrow. I can't believe it is already Monday tomorrow!!! Good thing I only had to wait a week right lol. I would have been dyin by now if it had been the 3 month wait that they told me I would have LOL!!

Monday at 12:43PM

Updates...I saw the RE for the first time today and really liked her a lot. I had an U/S and bloodwork done today which was much more than I could have expected. The U/S showed that my follicles on my right side were maturing really well for being cd10 and my lining was really thin from the clomid so I am being put on estrogen for a few days to build it back up. I go back in on thursday for a repeat U/S and a possible trigger injection. Hubby is still scheduled to have his SA done Jan 20th and if I am not pregnant this month I will be getting an HSG done next month. She is giving me the option for next month to either switch to femara or Gonadotropins. Well that is my update for now.
