awww thanks ladies! My appointment was at 7 this morning so I was home by 8 and have been working since. We're switching to letrozole instead of clomid, planning on doing a trigger shot again, and I need to order spermcicles. As soon as AF shows, we're a go. We've even got a plan in place IF I have another miscarriage.
I feel a LOT better having this appointment under my belt and discussing protocols with my RE

lol I'm okay with AF waiting a week or two(preferably no more than 3) to show, mostly because a year ago tomorrow was the cycle that became my ectopic. I'm not sure I want to cycle that closely...I could end up having the exact same dates, and THAT is scary.

No, it's an oral med like clomid. trade name is femara, letrozole is the generic.

Glad to see you have a solid plan in place! Did you not respond to the clomid, not want to take it, or have you just been on it too long? I ask because I am considering doing letrozole instead of clomid even though clomid did technically work for me (meaning I o'd), but my lining was so thin on it. Good luck once af arrives!

I've done 6 cycles of clomid, 3 in 2008, 3 in 2011. I responded 5/6 times(first time I was on low dose and didn't even ovulate). My lining has always been fine on it too(triple stripe, 12mm or so). My RE would have allowed me to use it again since it has been so many years since I first took it and I was responding fine, but the plan was to try and change as many things as we can in hopes that we won't end up with another miscarriage. We're taking it on a cycle by cycle basis to see how things go with it now to see if we stick with it or switch back to clomid.
