About Me
I am 31 years old and have been married for 3.5 years. DH and I have been TTC since July 2006. I had my first miscarriage in November of 2006, a chemical pregnancy in May of 2008, a miscarriage at 11 weeks in January of 2009 and another chemical pregnancy in June 2009. I want nothing more in this world than to be a Mom and hold my baby in my arms.

I know exactly how you feel. It is so frustrating to be so hurt, frustrated, and angry all the time. I too am having a hard time being happy for pregnant friends and family in my life...other than DS ladies. It is different with them because I know that they have worked as hard or harder than me to get pg. This is making me the black sheep of the family. My brother and his wife are expecting and my family is SO wrapped up in their lives! I on the other hand am doing foster care and they don't even ASK me about it! Hang in there! I will pray for peace for both of us!

Close Infertility
DH & I have been ttc since July 2006 . I had my 1st m/c in Oct 06. I got pregnant w/ no help almost immediately after we started ttc. After I m/c at 6 wks we started trying again and got nowhere. In Feb 07 my obgyn ordered all the usual tests - blood tests, HSG and semen analysis. All of my tests came back great but my DH's came back with low morphology. So my obgyn referred me to an RE. 7 IUIs later and still no baby. Since I did conceive w/ 3 of my IUIs we are going to try for an 8th.
Treatments
- Artificial Insemination Not Working
- 7 IUIs. Conceived with 3 but still no baby.
- Basal Thermometer Considering
- Bought one but never used it...fertility monitor seems easier...
- Clomid Not Working
- Horrible!! Thinned my uterine lining. Only used one cycle which ended in a chemical pregnancy.
- Femara Not Working
- No side effects, got good follicles but 2 cycles did not work.
- Follistim Not Working
- Got pregnant twice on this miscarried at 11 weeks and a chemical pregnancy. Trying it again for my 8th IUI.
- hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) Not Working
- Used Ovidrel before every IUI which all failed.
- HSG (Hysterosalpingography) Working / Worked
- Showed everything looked good!
- Ovulation Predictor Kit Somewhat Helpful
- I use the Clear Blue Easy fertility monitor which tells me when I ovulate but obviously I'm not pg yet...
- Progesterone Cream Too Soon to Tell
- Trying Crinone for the first time this cycle.
- Acupuncture Too Soon to Tell
- Only went once My RE says if it relieves stress to continue but he thinks it doesnt really help anything but that. Well it kind of stressed me out so I dont think Ill try it again. It didnt hurt but it made me claustrophobic. Probably sounds weird but laying on my stomach with needles in my back made me nervous. Thoughts like what if the fire alarm goes off and I have needles in my back went through my head! I know its crazy but its too expensive anyway!
Close Pregnancy After Loss/Infertility
I've been struggling with IF for over 2 years. I had one miscarriage in Nov of 06 and a chemical pregnancy in May of 08. I just got my BFP 11/24/08 after 5 IUIs.
Open Miscarriage
I had my first miscarriage in November 2006 at 6 weeks. We never saw a heartbeat. After 2 years of trying to conceive again I had my second miscarriage in May 2008 which my doctor termed as a "chemical pregnancy". I am having my 3rd miscarriage currently. I just found out January 15th that my baby no longer has a heartbeat at 10.5 weeks. Very devastated.
