April 9th

April 9th is when i go to lyndhurst again for my midcycle ultrasound. I will be on cycle day 13 that day and i will get an ultrasound to see how many follicles i will have :) PRAY for LARGE and MANY follicles :) I want my baby this month!! HAHA. No, seriously-please keep us in your prayers. I had a very rough time starting things this month :( I will start my Femara/Letrozole tonight and then i will go on that date and get a shot :) We'll see what God decides to do and how many Easter "Eggs" I will have :)

Well....

Well, i guess this month wasnt the time for God to say "Yes, they get a baby this month". He has other plans for us :) That wasnt okay with me at first, but i guess it has to be now :( We'll see what He has in store for us next month.

I emailed my nurse and asked about an IUI and about injections. I know that the Femara is working, but sometimes you need just a little more. I also asked about the post coital test that they had told me about last time i was there. We'll see.

Thanks for your constant prayers and support and i appreciate it. Please keep them coming. God hears them all :)

My blood work update...

So today i went in for bloodwork, at 8:30am. (Travis & I stayed the night in a horrible horrible hotel) and they drew it and we came back home. Since ive had the flu, i stayed at home from work so i could get better.. bleh.

Anyways, the nurse called and said my progesterone levels were excellent! they were 28.6 and the nurse said anything over 15 was ovulating!! YAY. my levels have never ever been this high (even w/ the trigger shot) so im very excited about that!!!

OKAY-from here on out though NO MORE BABY UPDATES!! If we get pregnant we want to keep that a surprise at least until i have a dr apointment. I will TRY to keep it under wraps until then :) lol. So.. no more dr talk or anything-this is a new blog... haha.

I cant catch a break....

Well.. after having a cough and sore throat since Wed i decided to go to Dr and low and behold... i have the dang flu!!! ugh! the dr couldnt give me any flu meds bc it would be a class C for prenancy and he didnt want to risk anything and prevent anything from happening. I should find out on April fools day if this cycle worked-haha. we'll see. Im to just stay home, drink lots of fluids and get lots of rest. bleh! i would do horrible on bedrest :( I go back to the dr on monday (the one in winston) to get my progesterone levels checked and to see if i did actually ovulate. which im 100% sure i did-but we'll see exactly how high the levels are. if they are low... then i will get a supplement.

So that's me in a nutshell. Prayers would be MUCH appreciated that things will still be okay in my womb and that the baby will implant and grow and my fever/flu wont hinder things :) Thanks.

Another dr update

Okay-dr apointment today. She scanned me and my lining was 13mm and my one follie was 34mm (i think that is a little big but she said its great!) and 24ish mm. I got my trigger in my arm and should ovulate in a couple of days. so we are well on our way to a baby-or twins-yay! lol. She did say that she was very hopeful that both follicles will release an egg-so that would increase my chances for twins very much. so im excited about that. ive been having such horrible pains in my ovaries today :( im hoping that means somthing good :) im just getting excited and nervous and anxious all at once.... Thanks for all the prayers-they mean soo much to me : ) I thought that i actually saw a 3rd follicle today on the same ovary as the 2 big ones, but im probably wrong-haha.

I will update you more as time goes on.

Dr Apointment Update :)

I wont have too much time.. but i wanted to let you know what the dr (well my nurse) said. I have 5 follicles total. 3 on the right (2 that are 11mm, and one that is 13mm) i had 2 on my left that were 23 (or 24) and 28mm. My lining was only 7.1mm and they like it to be 8mm. so they didnt give me the trigger. Im supposed to do opks tonight, tomorrow and sun.i take the one on sunday at 10am and then i call the nurse and let her know what it says... then im assuming i either go back or she will call in the trigger shot.. so we'll well on our way :) The nurse said that the 2 big follicles will drop eggs. so.. there is a HUGE possibilty that we will end up with 2 babies :) Thanks for ALL the prayers-i really really appreciate it!!

Nerves???

So... I have a dr apointment in Winston at 8:30am and man, my nerves are doing somthing wonderful-NOT! im sooo nervous.. i know its going to be good bc i have faith and know that God is doing good things in my ovaries (plus im having pretty bad ovary pains) and i WILL get blessed with my babies (yes, babies-plural-lol)

I wont be able to update my blog until Sun bc Travis, Jeremy, Heather & I will be in Greensboro until Sun. We are going to Acquire the Fire/Battle Cry. Im very excited to go.. .another reason im really excited is to see Travis :) He has been gone since Tue and ive missed him sooo bad!!!

Okay-im watching American Idol and all i do is cry!!! LOL i feel sooo bad for the blind guy bc he cant see what is going on :( It makes me feel bad for him-lol. (now Paula is crying-haha)

I will update everyone on Sun!

Follicle Scan Apointment? Check!

Hello. I just wanted to update you guys and let you know i have an apointment next Friday-eick, friday the 13th-for my follicle scan. In other words, i have an ultrasound next friday to see if the femara produced any good side follicles (the follicles is what houses the egg to be released) I produced pretty good sized ones the last time i was on femara so im hoping i do this time :) My apointment is at 8:30 in Winston so i will have to leave the house around 6 am! Oh my!!! i will meet travis in Greensboro afterwards and go on to the ATF where we will meet jeremy and heather... (okay, that means nothing for my infertility-lol)

I also started last night on Femara (the fertility drug) 7.5mg for days 3-7 (5 days) its not been bad so far, just makes me tired and have a terrible headache. but i know its all for the best :)

Travis leaves Tue to go to the techonology conference in Greenville, and i wont see him again until Friday in Greensboro :( So pray for me while he is gone, i hate being alone! lol.

Nothing else that is new :) Travis is in Greensboro as i write this bc the high school boys basketball team made it to the finals.. wow :)

That's all.. i will update as things progress!

Lucky #7???

Is 7 really a lucky number like people say??? Im getting ready to find out.. im starting my 7th month of fertility meds ( 2 years in the making) and we shall see :) On Wed i start the 7.5 mg of Letrozole and will take it for 5 days. Later on this week the nurse will call me back to schedule a midcycle ultrasound to see what things are doing in there :) I hope alot!!!! I will keep ya'll posted on what goes on.. but for right now, we pray... we pray really hard that this works bc im at my whits end here!!!! Thanks :)
