in Trouble TTC
Good morning! My name is Erica and I am looking forward to becoming a part of this community. A little about my TTC journey. DH and I have been TTC since 2/2015. While that doesn't seem like too long, I have a chronic health condition as well as a few past major surgeries that are known to make TTC more difficult. I had an HSG and DH had SA done in July, both came back normal, and due to a few very irregular cycles recently, my OB referred me to a RE. I had my first meeting 10 days ago, and due to my cycle timing we were able to get things started this cycle! I has BW and US done as well as a post coital test (normal) and RE decided to do an IUI last Thursday! So far the TWW is dreadful (as always), so I'm looking forward to connecting with you ladies :)
