Intro! CP mentioned

Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself a bit since I've been reading the posts for awhile . I am 37 and DH is 41. We have been ttc, or at least not preventing for over 2 years. Unexplained infertility, but did find out I have hashimoto's and am insulin resistant. We had 4 IUI's, the last one was a CP. I'm that person that has always been scared to start a family because I worry about timing or money, or anything really (can you say anxiety!). But when I saw that bfp... Even my heart gave a little flutter. It's so hard to stay calm and not get ahead of ourselves early on. When it didn't take I felt way more emotional than I even thought possible. The doctor then told us we would need to move on to ivf. Well, we took a few months off, but now are getting started. They put me on bcp this week and I am going for a saline sono tomorrow. FX it isn't too painful!

I'm thankful to have found this board because IF can feel so lonely. Everyone on here is so supportive and I can't wait to be sharing and spreading the good vibes!

@platasolWed49228 Hello and welcomeeee!!!!

I definitely understand the wanting to wait until you are more financially stable, I'm right there with you! I worry about it all the time, but my friend told me "You will never have a kid if you wait until you have the money because you'll never have enough!" Lol!

Anyhow we have a bit in common. I just had a cp last iui cycle too, it really sucks and I'm so sorry for your loss! Its so exciting when you get that BCP and it's very disheartening when it turns out to be a cp!  

I just had a sono last week actually and I can tell you it's not bad at all! Mine ended up being a little complicated because the balloon they used wouldn't deflate correctly... but even with that I think the IUI and HSG were worse lol.

Hi, I’m sorry to hear about your loss as well. You were right though, the songwent perfectly fine, thankfully nothing like the HSG! Now I just wait a few weeks until my baseline. Are you in the November or December boards?

@platasolWed49228 I'm sorry about your CP. I had one recently after my first FET. I also have hashimotos, but as long as your levels are below 2.5 it should not interfere. Of course the lower the better. From my cycle in July, my levels spiked with the BCP and my endo increased my dose. I didn't have any known reactions to the injections but I don't believe anyone was checking it during my transfer and I wonder if that had an impact. Since you are aware of the hashimotos, just tell them to add it to the blood work to keep track. Good luck with your upcoming cycle!
