    • About Me

      Well, I'm 40 and have been married 2 years to the most wonderful man. We've been trying for 2 1/2 years. In July 2007 after my OB referred us for fertility testing I got pregnant. Unfortunately we miscarried at 9 weeks. Been through 6 rounds of IUI with BFNs.

      Thanks for your journal comment. I'm hoping more sugar = more cooperation on Monday! I forgot to mention in my journal that I had 4 Reeses mini PB cups on the way to the office for the U/S, which is unusual for me, and he was still so sleepy!

    • Close Infertility
      Type: Ovarian Issues

      Found out that I'm almost out of eggs. We've been trying for 2 years and have gone through 4 IUI cycles. 2 with clomid 2 with Menapur.

      Treatments

      Artificial Insemination Not Working
      Not for lack of trying! Hasn't been too bad, just some cramping and dashed hopes
      Clomid Not Working
      I've done 4 rounds of Clomid, one for Challenge test and 3 for IUI. Only 2 IUIs happened because I ovulated early and we missef it. Unfortunately didn't work.
      Ganirelex Working / Worked
      Just tried this cycle with it. Worked for me. I finally hung on to my eggs for a "text book" ovulation cycle.
      hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Working / Worked
      I guess it worked but I've had it 4x and still not pg.
      HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
      Did it, I was fine. Didn't hurt too bad but take your advil before you go.
      Progesterone Somewhat Helpful
      Well, I didn't get pregnant so not sure if the progesterone would have worked. It's messy and makes me really bloated.
      Repronex Working / Worked
      Second round worked beautifully. 2 perfect follies but no BFP
    • Close Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility

      After 3 years, 1 m/c, 6 IUIS, and 1 IVF using donor eggs we finally got our BFP!
