*** September 3T Siggy Challenge: Favorite Fall Shows ***
CD1 was Saturday after more than a year of no AF. Hoping the Provera and my small amount of weight loss can kick start some more normal cycles. ER consultation is next week, and I'm a bit nervous. My concern is that they won't take me seriously as I'm so overweight, but I really really hope they do and we can start making a plan since I'M taking this so seriously. Yuck. Plus side is, we have to go into Boston for the appointment, and my DH is going to come, so hopefully we can get some lunch and go for a nice walk before.
Good luck this week, everyone!

I'm currently 2dpiui #4. I keep catching myself being more hopeful than usual that this will work, then reminding myself that nothing has worked yet so I shouldn't get my hopes up! I had 3 - 4 mature follicles, and DH's count was 77 million. More follies and more swimmers has created some optimism!
DH came with me to the appt and I think that really made all the difference as well. We spent the entire day together, unlike the usual IUI during a work day.
Good luck to everyone this week!
Unexplained IF, Hypothyroidism
IUI's 1 - 3: Femara + Ovidrel = BFN
IUI's 4 - 5: Femara + Gonal F + Ovidrel = BFN
IVF Jan 2015. 21R/18F/15 still growing on day 2
Transferred two beautiful embies on day 2, beta 1/29
She went over all the injections - Menopur & Ganirelix. I'll also be on Follistim but we already know how to do that one. I received my calendar (which is just an estimate). But - I'm bummed because I asked what the chances are that my RE will do the retrieval or transfer. She said he's not in the office on Tuesdays - and if it's a weekend it would be the on-call doctor. She said all the doctors there are amazing (what else would she say though..). Then she said that he's leaving to go on a mission trip to Africa on 9/5 - which is right around when my retrieval would be - sad. Which the nurse understood "It's hard to have another doctor do that when you're so used to him." I'm also supposed to start a baby aspirin. And she listed a bunch of other drugs that will be ordered throughout this process that was a little overwhelming - but one day at a time.
Yikes, sorry for the book!

~~ALL WELCOME~~
I am on CD 45 ("oh joy" for long cycles). I just got my blood drawn for the test my RE is doing to rule out Cushing's Disease. I will be getting those results in a couple days, but they highly doubt I have it. This is FINALLY the LAST diagnostic test I have to do before starting treatments.
I'm sad to say that I've decided to bench myself before even starting treatments because I'm starting my 10 month internship on September 2nd. I decided it'd be smart to just wait until the end of September/beginning of October to start treatment just in case my body decides to cooperate with the first round of Metformin and Letrozole w/ trigger & TI. It wouldn't be a good idea to have to take a leave with only one month of this internship left. So the waiting continues.... my only question now is do I bring on AF with Prometrium or just wait to do that until right before I do treatments. There is an incredibly little chance of it coming on its own.
Me: 28 MH:35
Married September 2012. TTC since September 2013

WTF consult scheduled for 1/29
Hi ya'll! BFN last cycle and now benched for a month. I changed OB's to one who works with a RE and they wanted to redo my labs and some additional others. Good news is got my results today and starting new meds so hopefully they help. Plan is for Clomid next month.
Me: 31, PCOS

My beta is this morning, but I'm not feeling hopeful at all. I've had cramps and spotting. Depression has really sapped any optimism.
This is my final IUI. We will likely be moving to IVF if this cycle doesn't work out. I am torn over taking a break before then. On one hand, I could use a break, but on the other, I just want to get something to happen already!
Good luck to all in the 2WW! Big hugs to all that need them.
