Newbie

Hello ladies! Just taking a minute to introduce myself.  I'm Kate,  29 yo teacher from Michigan.  DH and I have been ttc for about 2.5 years with absolutely no luck.  We've started working with an RE and I go in this Friday for my midcycle US on my 2nd round of letrozole (previously had 3 failed cycles of Clomid as prescribed by my OBGYN as I waited to get in to RE office). I'll be doing the Ovidrel trigger once my follicle(s) is mature, plus I'm on 2mg of estradiol (estrace) 2x/day to thicken my uterine lining.  All that plus yoga,  teas,  pomegranate juice,  heating pads,  and just about anything else I think might possibly work. 

Pleased to meet you all!
