HI! I am kinda new!

Hi everyone! I started reading these posts on the bump and then joined because I am having Trouble TTC. I just wanted to ask questions, learn things, and get & give support. I have posted several things in the past few weeks and today realized I never really introduced myself to anyone so I figured I might should do that. I am 29 years old I am from South Georgia and I married my husband on October 3rd, 2009. I am a Special Education Teacher and a Cross Country and Track & Field head coach. We have 4 furry babies, an english bulldog named Tank, a mixed bulldog named Sadie, and 2 cats Buck and Felix. My husband & I have been trying to conceive since May 2010. I kinda knew I would have some trouble getting pregnant because I have endometriosis. I've had 2 laps one in May of 2005 and one in December of 2008. We tried on our own in May, June, and most of July 2010. At the end of July I went to my OB-GYN becuase I was barely having a period. He put me on clomid 50mg from Aug. 2010 which overstimulated me. He then dropped me down to clomid 25mg and it seems to work for me it makes me ovulate. In June of 2011 I had my first IUI which ended in a m/c at 3 weeks. My 2nd IUI was in August 2011 and it failed completely. I am currently in the 2ww with my 3rd IUI and it's not looking too good. I am 12dpiui and spotting (well the spotting started yesterday 11dpiui). I am afraid that my AF might be arriving about 4 days too early but I sure do hope she stays away. I am normally on a 30-32 day cycle. I have cried at least 3 times today. Usually the first day I realize IUI failed I cry but I am ok after that, although I do have my moments. I am just frustrated beyond anything I can describe. If this IUI does fail we are taking off the month of October from all meds & all fertility treatments and then in November I will get the lap surgery done again. As soon as I heal from the lap & go through my first cycle after the lap we will be doing IUI #4 and if that fails it is off to the FIRM in Jacksonville, Florida. I did not mean to share too much just trying to introduce myself. As for the bump, I am slowly trying to figure out everything on this website.

Hi and welcome. A few tips:

Try to put in some paragraph breaks. You'll get more interest and responses that way.

I"m sorry to hear about your endo and IUIs. If you haven't already, check out the IF boards. There will be those who have been in your shoes and can give you great support and feedback.

Enjoy the break. That was one of my favorite parts of TTTC.
