IVF here we come. We were both nervous about HOM and since I almost had 5 follies last month that was the main factor for our decision. I just spoke to my nurse and I go in on thursday for CD3 for B/W and US and then I will be put on BCP. then I go in for consult on monday. I know that they want me to have a saline sonogram on monday as well.
wow this is happening pretty fast. Is the saline sonogram like the HSG? That wasn't too bad for me so we shall see.
Re: We made our decision
IVF#3 brought us our miracle baby girl on June 26, 2012
I think it was the right choice and hopefully this is it for you guys!
Saline was a piece of cake for me, no worse than a pap, definitely better than HSG. Good luck, sweetie!
thanks! good to hear about the saline sonogram!

Good luck!!
The sono isn't really like the HSG in my experience. They use saline to actually inflate the uterus, rather than just adding dye to see the current shape. My second sono was yesterday and both times I had cramping from the saline (1st time was really bad, but probably had to do with the endo because it wasn't too bad the 2nd time).
2 years, 2 surgeries, 2 clomid fails, 2 IUIs, 1 loss, IVF #1 - 10/25/10 = BFP!, DS is now 3.5yrs!
TTC #2 - 6/12 surgery #3, FET #1 & 1.2 = BFN, 12/2012 FET #2 = BFP! DD is 1.5 yrs!
Surprise! 12/16/14 BFP, loss #2 12/31/14
I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
Love & luck to my 3TC girls. Congrats to Omega-The boys are here!
If there's one thing I've learned while waiting my turn,
it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.
After 2 years & 2 losses, our little man arrived 8-2011.
Agreed. Monday will be easy-peasy!
I know this had to be a tough decision to make, but I'm glad y'all were able to make it quickly. Best of luck as you move forward!
