The plus to the whole event - I didn't need a pap after all. Woohoo for me! And AF is gone. Another 2 day bleed - I spotted last night and nothing this morning on the pad (only when wiping).

I have cried about this twice today so I hope that putting this to post won't bring it all back up.

Okay, I get there despite the whole car switch - I was running late and didn't have time to get AJ to MIL's and to by appt by the right time. So I had her meet me there and we switched cars (rather than switching the car seat out or boring AJ to death in the waiting room).

I don't know if you remember me posting, but my old OB retired or something. The new doctor was nice. I had to go through basically a whole life history with the nurse and then again with the doctor a little. They didn't up my clomid which really ticks me off, but I do ovulate on my own. They are afraid if the give me too high a dosage I will have twins or triplets. Right now I would take twins, but I didn't say that. He gave me a script for 50mg again. We are going to check my progesterone 7 days after ovulation (since I don't usually ovulate on CD14, the test won't be right on day 21). I call one week after the test is done if I don't hear from them to find out the results. I am pretty sure the results are going to be low progesterone (spotting before AF is a sign of that).

If I don't get pregnant in the next month or so (I wanna say he said 2 months) then we are going to do the dye test. He doesn't think I have any blockages since I have been pregnant before and I had a vaginal birth. I think there is a slim chance of some sort of blockage because of the witch of a doctor that delivered AJ and I hemorrhaged after he was born. They were pushing on me and everything trying to get the placenta out. I don't know how it came out but I am wondering if they rushed it and pulled on the cut umbilical cord and it tore or something. I was a little dazed and confused after 4 days of labor and the pitocin and epi. I am not sure if we will even be able to have the dye test done though because of our insurance.

The OB did ask if I was trying with the same partner (isn't it funny how they ask those kinds of questions) as with AJ and I said yes so he didn't even think a SA was necessary. I think DH is leaning towards the possibility of getting his tested if we don't get pregnant soon. Though I too have a 200% husband now too! I will go get him some vitamins this week and see if I can't get him to take them more regularly again. He is going to try to keep himself "cooler" down there as possible and we may DTD in the AM more often. He is also saying we need to do it every day instead of skipping a day in between (he complained he was sore when I asked every day last month that is why there were a couple days that we didn't). So we will see how it goes.

Crossing my fingers. I really need to do a lot of praying cause I have let my faith slip a lot in the last year. I am also going to see if my IL's will watch AJ overnight the weekend I should be Oing and give us a little more "alone" time.

Wow! It sounds like an eventful appointment! I'm sorry that they didn't up your dosage of clomid, but hopefully you won't need it!
Whoo Hooo for having a 200% Hubby too!!! It kinda makes you feel at ease a bit doesn't it? Like they are really putting forth the effort! I hope he steps up and sticks to his plan! Hopefully the full commitment will bring you that well deserved BFP! I totally say drop off AJ for the weekend and have yourself LOTS of fun

I'll be keeping you in my prayers that this will be the cycle you get your BFP. We need lots of us to join Lynda in the DDC's!

Wow, I am glad the new Dr listened to you!

Well with a cd 21 P4 check when you know you O later on clomid will show a lower P4...maby then they will up your meds

I suffered uteran trauma after last baby. I hemerged and didnt deliver the placenta after 45 min.

They called in the Ob and being I had a EPI my first ever they decided to manually scrape out my placenta right there.

The OB used her finger's and took 45 to litrally scratch out my whole placenta. I had to lay there while nurse's pushed on top and OB had arm up to elbow in my uteras. They had to inject me with nitrice (sp)( stuff they use for heart attacks) to relax my cervix from clamping down on her wrist.
It looked like hambuger when she was done. It did save me a emerg trip to OR for D&C and that made me very happy! My whole belly was severly bruised for a good 3 weeks.

My point being I concieved 12 weeks later but lost that baby at 17w and got pg again this past nov and again lost that pg BUT I did get pg 2x after that so my tubes appear to be good inspite of that trauma and 3 d&c's.

I really hope the same is for your situation

Good luck I pray you see your sticky BFP this cycle!

Sounds like a good doc to listen to you and all!

As for the dye test... I had figured since I had kids, vaginal births and all my tubes should be clear. Nope, both blocked. GRRRR

I hope that this is THE cycle for yoU!

I didn't have the whole arm thing. Though you would think if there was a blockage they would have seen it on my transvaginal u/s in November.

I would have thought the same thing if I had gone before I heard your story.

LOL! It's funny you said that. When I mentioned the idea to DH last night, he said "If I flex time at work, I could come home early and we could have some fun, go to dinner, come home, have some fun, go to bed, wake up and have some fun and then go get AJ". LOL! Then jokingly I said and then put AJ down for nap and have some more fun. LOL

Now THAT's a good plan!!! Hopefully you'll be able to make it happen!!!

Wow, sounds like your appointment was very productive! I hope you won't even need to worry about the HSG/SA. An SA might still be a good idea if you're not preggers in a few months since some women DO get pregnant even when their DH's have MFI issues - when we got pregnant in August it was less than 1% chance!! If I hadn't m/c and started fertility testing, we would have never suspected DH might be the issue. Anyhow, I hope you don't even have to think about that because you get your BFP this month
