Trouble TTC

New Member (child mentioned)

Hello everyone. 

So... This is now the third summer that I have went through the whole house to organize it before going back to work and hoping to get pregnant. 2 years ago, we tried but our timing may not have been the best and we stopped due to other circumstances. So we tried again last year and after 6 months went to fertility specialists. And not knowing there was a 6 month hold on BD after coming back from out of the country, we are back to the same time of year to try again. 

We we almost tried IUI this month, but the test was a flashing smiley face even though I had ovulated according to the blood test. So we will try IUI next month. All the appointments are going to be an issue with work and our 5 year old that took only one month to conceive. Our doctor discussed clomid to up our chances and an ovulation shot, which I think we will do this month. I feel like my body is trying to do something as we did time BD this month even if there was no IUI. I had a bad period early when usually I don't get bothered much with them. 

This scheduled and planning type girl is trying to take it day by day. I delayed jury duty to start in 4 months. 2 tentative issues are too much. Thanks for reading and I hope to offer support as we go along.
