CD7 first follie check!!!!

I was so excited this morning to go see what all the stabbing myself in the stomach had brought about!

Got there and they called me back and I sit down to have my blood drawn for my E2 check. And she barely put the darn tourniquet around my arm made me squeeze a wash cloth and went fishing. Damn it hurt! Once in my left and then once in my right. So she said I was dehydrated and took me back to the room for the ultrasound.

So I saw a different doctor than I normally see for my ultrasounds he went in and found I had 2 on my right that were larger and a few on my left. So the ones on the right were like 8 and 9mm I think maybe a little bigger. So he told me to do 3 more shots of the 75IU of Gonal-F and to come back on Monday. But that meant I needed to order more from Freedom so there goes another $444... ugh... and I wouldn't even use the full dose up most likely.... feels like a waste of money but if it gets us a baby then it is so worth it!

He leaves and the nurse brings me water and has me sit in the waiting room chugging water for like 10 minutes. Then calls me back and gos mega digging in my arm again. She still got nothing and finally decided to send me to the building next door to the lab. The lab where apparently all the preggos go for bloodwork. So I sit on the bench with 2 preggos and then another runs in who is almost late for her blood draw for her glucose check. So I was nice and let her go first.

The lab lady looked at my arms and shook her head and got a vein first try and apologized for the ladies at my drs office.

Clomid again... IUI#4 & 6 month post surgery SA

Thursday May 9, 2013
IUI#4
Our break cycle was a bust so 2nd cycle with clomid only hot flashes this time so better than Femara!
I had my monitoring yesterday and had a 23mm on the right and a 22mm and a 16mm on the left, so I got my trigger shot and right now I am waiting for the IUI!
I am about over all of this! The Dr who did the US said I might want to schedule an appt with Dr S to discuss what we are going to do next. I couldn't bring myself to schedule it yesterday.
But maybe I will schedule it after the 2ww is over that way I can cancel if by some miracle this works.
Right now I don't know if I want to do IVF and fairly certain that I do not want to adopt. I guess it is getting to be that time where we need to sit down and talk this out and figure out how far we are going to go with all this.

My faith in all of this is waivering
2 years is such a long time and maybe it is just not going to happen for us
I am okay with maybe 2 more IUIs if needed but dotn' know how much more I can take.
The meds mess with me so much.
