This stinks

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive July 2007: This stinks

I went to my fertility doctor this morning to check my follicles to see if I am gearing up to ovulate so we can do the IUI, and I didn't have any follicles. I am going back in on Wednesday to check again, but if there is still nothing there, I am going to see if they can maybe do a blood test to check my progesterone and see if maybe I already ovulated, since FF(Fertility Friend, a Charting site) says that I have. I will only be 6DPO, but they usually check that around 7DPO, so something should come up if I have. I am so upset over this. I am going to take a break for a couple of months if this month ends up being a bust. I guess the Femara didn't work, or worked too well and I ovulated really early.

I admire your perservance Rayanne. My fingers are crossed for you.

I am sorry Rayanne.. I know its frustrating for you. Are you seeing a specialist or just your regular ob/gyn?

By Rayanne on Monday, July 23, 2007 - 04:55 pm:

I've been seeing a specialist for about a year now.

I am so sorry! I also went through fertility treatments, so I do know exactly where you are coming from. A break might be a nice thing for a couple of months.

{{hugs}} I can only imagine how frustrating this must be.

Oh Rayanne, (((hugs))). I am so sorry. I know how frustrated you must be, I have a friend going through the exact same thing. I will say a prayer for you.

Rayanne, I read your post yesterday, and hesitated to respond, because I wanted to think of *the right thing* to say. But really, there is nothing I can say that will ease your pain over this. I don't pretend to truly understand what you've been going through, because I've never been there.

But I can see how frustrating this has been for you. All I can say is, if it were me, I think I'd take a small break, recharge my emotional batteries, and then keep trying.

Big {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}} and prayers heading your way.

A break is definately what I need. I told my DH that if it happens while we are on a break, then great, and I will start my progesterone shots then, and if it's ment to be, it will happen. I have to keep reminding myself to stay positive, even though it is really hard at times.

Rayanne, know that I am praying for you and your precious family.
