Had to share, infertility info x-posted

MXmom · #1 March 31st, 2009, 01:24 AM

I stumbled onto this online book and was shocked to find it is over 200 pages long. Obviously some of the English is choppy and the comic-like drawings humorous at times, but overall, from the 20 minutes I spent looking at it, it seems to be a possible valuable resource for anyone struggling with infertility. I was surprised at the detail it goes into. It talked about some things I had never heard of, as far as testing goes. Here's the link if you are interested.

Hey lady!! I haven't seen your name around here in quite some time... what's the update with you!??

In case I have confused you, I'm ~*Jackie*~. Used to post a bunch in the TTC #1 board when you did.

Hi! Welcome back! I'm going to have to bookmark this and read it later.

Thanks for the welcome back. Hey Jackie! It is hard for me to recognize people when their siggies change. I know, silly. Thanks for remembering me. MXdad and I have been given an official diagnosis of "unexplained infertility." We thought it was MXdad at first, but turns out he is okay. We keep hoping and praying that it will happen for us, but maybe we can spring for one IVF cycle soon with the help of our tax return. What's the update on you?

I always loved that you called him MXdad!

Thanks for the link, I can't seem to get enough information on ttc.

I'm sorry about the diagnosis.. I think that's where most of us (in this forum) are at the moment. We're still trying away- 4 Clomid cycles later, still no BFP. My HSG found a mostly blocked right tube, so we're waiting and trying for 2 cycles (including this one) to see if it will be a BFP or a lap to check out the tube. BOO!! Stick around, hun. We'd love to have you over here!

Ahhh, thanks you girls. You are so sweet. It really means a lot to be remembered. Jackie, I really hope you get your BFP in the next two cycles. Sorry about the blocked tube. Christine, hubby doesn't even know I call him MXdad on here. I should tell him. He would probably love it. Although, we may be selling the bikes here in the very near future in order to afford infertility treatments. All well, that is what is really important, right? Good to see you again too Cris! Good luck to all. Don't worry, if I ever have anything really important to tell, I will let you ladies know first!
