    • About Me

      I've been married for 4 years. I always knew I wanted a big family, but I decided to wait until I had accomplished a few other things. I love life. I have an amazing husband, fantastic friends, and a strong family. Generally I am a very happy person. I've been trying to conceive for about 27 months. My husband and I are trying to stay positive, but with each month that passes, I lose a little more of myself. I never thought that this would happen. It's not fair and I know that sounds so childish, but it's not.

    • Interests

      I love to vacation, swim, sing, draw, ride my bike, socialize with friends, oh and rearrange furniture. (Odd, I know. I inherited that from my mom.) You rarely find me at home. I'm an extraordinarily social person. There's so much life to be lived and I refuse to look back one day and say "I should've done that!"

    • Close Infertility

      Hi There, My name is Jessica and I feel very blessed to have come across this site. My husband and I have been trying for a baby for 22 months. It's been so hard. People keep telling me not to worry, it's going to happen. But every month has been the same. The stick is a constant reminder that I won't have a baby this time and with every time I lose a little more hope. I'm frustrated because I don't feel like my doctors are doing anything, so I am moving on.

      Treatments

      Artificial Insemination Not Working
      I've tried two IUI's on Clomid, 100mg. I was going for a third this month but I have a cyst. Meeting with the doctor to decide the next step. One failed IVF: 7 eggs, 3 mature, 4 fertilized (not strong) We are narrowing in on a diagnosis. It appears that my eggs are not maturing. My estrogen is lower than it should be. For my 2nd IVF, we are adding menopur to the gonal F (300 dosage this time from the beginning). My doctor wants to do ICSI this time to see the inside of the egg.
      Clomid Too Soon to Tell
      All signs pointed to me ovulating, no blood work was done, but my ob/gyn started me on Clomid after a year. It's only been one month.
      Lupron Too Soon to Tell
      night sweats are bad
      Ovulation Predictor Kit Working / Worked
      the kit said I ovulated each month for a year, now I'm not so sure
