Follow up appt....

Okay so all month I've been having test and tracking my bbt and CM, having blood test and HSG x-ray... Had a progestrone test on Monday that test would tell if I ovulated this month, well went in for a follow up appt today and doctor confirmed what I had a deep down feeling that I didn't ovulate this month. Hearing her say it made me very emotional and couldn't hold back the tears, but of course Michelle was wonderful and supportive. But she was very reassuring that everything was gonna be okay and we can fix that. Her treatment plan for me was to put me on progestrone to help my period come, then to double my prescription of Clomid before it was 50 mg, but now it's 100 mg and then after my period starts go in for a vaginal ultrasound on day 12 of my cycle to see how mature my follicles (eggs)are to deicide when to inseminate. When she decides to inseminate I will get a shot of Overidel(helps to ovulate in the next 24-36 hours). So I'm guessing we will inseminate around June 3-4, 2010. Also, by taking the Clomid, Overidel and being over 35, it increases my chances of having a multiples! That's so encouraging to me...

Something else that's new is one of Michelle's closest friend used a local sperm bank and we have decided to not only use the same sperm bank but the same sperm?! Next time we talk I'll talk more about how this will work, need to talk more with Michelle about this..

HSG test

On Friday I went in for my HSG x-ray.. I was expecting it to be easy and simple but it was far from that! I was told to take some pain pills about an hour before hand and I did, but it didn't help! The purpose of the test was to see if my fallopian tubes had any blockage and to see the shape of my uterus. Everything was great!! As my dr. said if it was a quiz I would have received an A!! So I'm so glad and relieved that every test that I've had thus far has been great and I don't see why in June when we inseminate it shouldn't take. We've decided (more so Michelle) that we're gonna let Dr. Hayter inseminate @ the clinic...

This past weekend I met some of Michelle's friends and was given some good information, about a digital OPK and about a liquid prenatal drink, will look into both this week and tell you more about it later...

Just wanted to update you on my test on friday...
