Most people it seems have moved over to the SG FB page but the last couple of days I feel guilty for posting about our TTC journey. I know how hard it is to read the m/c and pregnant posts so maybe I should just post over here about that stuff? I don't know. So, regardless, here I am. Not sure if anyone here remembers me - but my husband and I have been actively TTC for 3 years now. We've gotten pregnant 4 times on our own that have all resulted in a m/c. We made a move from NJ to KS in September because of new orders to the base here. Bought our first house, got my 7 year old enrolled back into school and my 3 year old into play groups. Waited and waited for the RE appt and it finally came Dec 16th. He opted not to do new testing, was pretty disappointed with this but he still went ahead and wrote scripts as though there was an auto immune/blood clotting factor (all of my testing done has turned up negative, this is our 3rd RE). I did 100mg of Clomid on day 3-7 and went in for my u/s last Wed and only had 3 follicles worth measuring at a 9 and two 8's. DR said I am most likely not ovulating on my own or have not been since our last m/c because we've been unable to get pregnant. I've tried 50, 100 and 150 mg's in the past and so if we do not get pregnant this cycle, he's going to move me over to Femara and FSH injections. I gave myself the Ovidrel shot yesterday, took me a few minutes but I finally did it. I start Heparin twice a day and then Crinone/progesterone on Wed. Looking forward to it! Lots of cramps today, feeling hopeful but trying not to get my hopes up too high. DR didn't seem to think that the Clomid would end up working but needed to rule it out for himself. I'm just hoping something works here in the next month or two, we already know Adam is deploying this Spring and it'd be nice for him to leave w/me out of the 1st trimester... good luck to everyone else here TTC.
