Introducing myself

*Mrs.J.2011* · #1 March 23rd, 2009, 10:16 AM

Hi ladies! I wanted to introduce myself, since I've been in denial that we've been trying for over 6 months its hard to be here! I'm Kaleigh (23) DB is Chris (24) we have been TTC #1 since July.. we just hit the 8 month mark last week. I was dx'd with PCOS when I was 15, so we know that the problem is that I don't ovulate. In August we did 50mg Clomid my CD21 progesterone levels came back at 0.64 (should have been OVER 15!) September-December we took a TTC w/MA break because I had just gotten a new job and didnt have insurance.. but we still TTC the "old-fashioned" way. No luck. In January we tried another round of 50mg Clomid. My CD21 progesterone was 0.58 (again should have been OVER 15 but this time was worse..) This cycle was a wash, we were waiting for our appt with the RE. We went and saw him on March 12th and I love him! He is such a nice guy and really knows his stuff! He told me to call on CD35 if no AF. I called today and I am waiting on a call back. I should be going in for bloodwork this week and then taking something to bring on AF. Once AF shows we will be scheduling an u/s and an HSG.. and Chris has to do another SA since the only other one he did back in August, and the dr wants more than 1.. His numbers came back all within the normal range last time, so thats what we are hoping for this time too!

Alright, that turned out to be a longer post than I had anticipated.. If you made it to the end, thank you!

Hi Kaleigh! I recognize you from the ttcwma board. I'm Jackie (27), DH is Jon (28), and we're in month 16. I recently had my first appointment with an RE too, and this will be the "wash" cycle for us as I have been ordered lots of bloodwork (repeat since I had mine done over a year ago), and a repeat and more detailed s/a for DH (although his numbers were normal the last time as well). We've found a blockage in my right tube, so we're waiting for all these results in April to see what direction we need to go! EEK! Glad to have you here!

hi there and welcome to our family!!! we have had a lot of bfps lately!!! so our already small clan, has gotten a bit smaller!!! glad to have you, but not glad that you are struggling with ttc. I am Lynda and I am one of the co-hosts here with alicia (hopingfor1soon). i am currently dealing with my 2nd m/c in a year. heartbreaking!!!!

I know all about denial. but remember, denial only keeps you stagnant. progress is what we all seek!!! and a bfp too!! i wish you one soon! looking forward to getting to know you better.

Welcome over here. I stop in over on the PCOS board occasionally and recognize you.

I am Christina (27), wife to Tony (29), and I have a 2.5 year old son (AJ). I got diagnosed with PCOS in November 2008 and have been TTC with Clomid and Met since. We are gearing up to do an HSG and SA here too. Good Luck - I hope you get your BFP very soon!
