Infertility

I am a sadist

Apparently a saline sono wasn't enough abuse for me today...I decided to have a cavity refilled this afternoon too. Sweet Jesus - the things I have put myself through today. In all honesty, the saline sono. was completely manageable. Painful, yes, but nowhere near the pain I experienced with the HSG. Thank you all for your encouragement on that today. I really wish this novacaine would wear off already though. I am tired of drooling and spitting on myself. I'm drinking my wine with a straw.

In other news, I was officially cleared for IVF today. It's actually official! Once my bloodwork and genetic testing comes in (about 3 weeks) I am all tee'ed up to start. I am super excited. Normally I would feel ridiculous saying that I am excited to shoot myself up with hormones that make me crazy and sick to my stomach but I know you gals can understand where I am coming from! ;)

Me: 31, Dx: Hypothalamic Amenorrhea, Elevated AMH of 18 DH: 34 & borderline morphology issues IUI#1/cycle with Menopur & Novarel = Mild OHSS & BFN IUI#2/cycle with Menopur & Novarel = BFN IVF#1 converted to FET due to moderate OHSS 21 eggs retrieved, 12 mature, 11 fertilized 7 frosties, 6 genetically normal December 5th FET with one perfect blast = BFN FET #2 = early February

    That is great news!! 

    After 1 IUI, 3 IVF's with CGH/CCS testing, 10 early miscarriages, and lots of tears and frustration, we are moving on to Domestic Infant Adoption!  We are so excited to see what the future holds.

  • Glad all the icky testing is over with! Good luck with IVF #1!!
    IUIs #1-3 (1x unmedicated, 2x Clomid) = 2 BFNs, 1 m/c at 7w3d
    IUIs #4-6 (injects) = 3 BFNs
    IVF #1 = BFN
    FET #1 = BFN
    FET #2 = BFN

  • Ugh! That sucks, at least you got it all out of the way with one shot. And wine through a straw, that's awesome lol. Maybe you will start a new trend.

    Congrats on being cleared for IVF! That's awesome, GL!
