well i'm back from the ultrasound. The good news is that my FSH levels below 25 and we have a 40%-50% of the clomid working for us. The bad news is that the follicles sizes weren't large enough to do the trigger shot. There were several small ones in each ovary so she measured the larges one and in the right ovary it was .6 and the left ovary was .7. She said the dr wants to see them over 1 before giving the trigger shot. This is all new to me and i was very upset at the dr office. It just seems like it's never going to happen and it's so frustrating. I know this is our last option. if the clomid doesn't work for us, there is no other alternative. We don't have the money to do the IUI or anything else. I did tell her that I have never ovulated before day 17 since I started charted back in January. SHe said that if that's the case, then day 12 is definately to early. I guess i just thought maybe I would ovulate early because of the meds but i guess this isn't the case. The Dr is going to look at the ultrasound pics and Stephanie said that she would call me tomorrow and let me know what he thinks. She said he is probably going to go ahead and put me on clomid and see what happens. I guess i should be happy that the clomid might work but im still soooooo sad. I am so sick of seeing these women around here cheating on their husbands and sleeping around and getting pregnant. It pisses me off. I know I shouldn't feel like they don't deserve a baby but that's kind of how I feel. There is one girl here in town that just got married about a month ago and her husband just came home after 2 weeks on the oil rig and he found out she had been cheating before they got married and she still is cheating and now she is 5 weeks pregnant. I am sick of people telling me to just be patient and that it will happen when it happens. I have been waiting for over a year now and it just feels like it's never going to happen. I'm sorry for being so pissy. I just don't have anyone else that knows what it's like and knows what i'm going through. Thanks for listening. I'm going to see what the dr has to say and I am going to give the clomid a couple months and if nothing happens, then i am giving up and throwing in the towel.

 Im sorry you didnt get great news all around. At least your odds of the clomid working were on the better end though. I really hope that it helps you hun. I know you've been TTC for a long time now, and you deserve another baby.
Lifes so unfair sometimes

Aww hun I'm sorry it wasn't all good news. I can understand your frustrations about everyone telling you to be patient, being patient doesn't get us pregnant! I hope it happens soon, it shouldn't take this long. You are a sweet, wonderful, loving family and deserve to be holding a little bundle soon.

Aww, Jennifer, I'm so sorry you are still in a funk! Have you considered that it's the Clomid making you very moody? It does that, you know.  I understand about watching the awful people around you while you struggle though. I went through that too. Oh, and Clomid makes you O a tad later, not earlier; or that was what my studies showed and I heard from the doctor. Chin up, girl, it's working at least. A few more days and you will have good size follies! You will get your little one soon, I know it's taken some time to get there, but have faith that you will sweetie. Never give up, Jen!

Thanks ladies. I swear I would be insane if it wasn't for ya'll. I guess i was just expecting to be able to get the trigger shot today and know that I would o in the next 36 hours so i was very dissappointed. I just feel like I have been waiting forever. I know I'm not the only one but I just can't beleive that i got pregnant with Eli on the pill and we have been trying since august of last year and still aren't pregnant. Thank you again ladies for being so wonderful and so supportive. I hope that we all have BFP to share really soon.

Jennifer I'm sorry you had a bad day. I agree that it was probably too soon. Are they going to do another u/s in a few days? And don't give up. I know what you mean about seeing so many women getting pg without trying. It can be so frustrating!

 How disapointing
I am so glad the clomid is clearly working and you have such a great shot with it!
Good luck!!!
