Hi ☺ new here

Hi. Just wanted to thank everyone for sharing their stories and tips and experiences. Its a very valuable and powerful resource for people like me who have limited support outside of my husband and close friends. My husband and I have been seeing a RE specialist and have been ttc my second, but his first child, for over a year. It's been a very hard year for us. We just did a round of 25mg clomid and are in the tww and praying for success.
Thanks for sharing your stories and journey. Best wishes to all.

    Hi @Aliandrusty123 ! Welcome to the infertility group! I'm glad you are already receiving support.  I hope that clomid works for you.  Are you also doing ultrasounds to monitor follicle growth?  Best of luck that this month will be successful!
