On Hold!

With much discussion and thought Greg and I have decided to take a break from fertility treatments this month, we have mad this decision for a bunch of reasons. While taking this break we will be saving up money to move to IUI hoping that will do the trick if it does not happen naturally for us while we are breaking from treatment. I feel that my body needs a break and the stress is not good for me or our marriage.

Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers!


Thank you,
Carissa


I will continue to post on decisions and progress!

Yet again I write this post with a heart ache!

Well as you all know today was my testing day have never made it to this point yet in the 3 months of treatment so we were super excited!!! I hardly slept waiting for this am to come I woke up at 4:00am and tested BIG FAT NEGATIVE! So disappointing I just sat there squinting hoping there would be a faint line but nothing, nothing at all! I then cried and went back to lay down Greg came home from work and I shared the news with him. Here we sit and wait for Aunt Flow to come and start round 4! If by some kind of amazing thing Aunt flow does not show up in a few days i will test again.



To help Greg and I with dealing with another disappointment we took a road trip to three rivers and had Lunch over looking the river, So nice to spend time with my amazing and supportive husband!

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we morn this and move on, Please pray that round 4 is our time for our baby shoes! I will update with dr. apt and our next move!

Well its done now and on to the next part we will find out soon!

Meds!

The Blue needle is from this time and the other are from the last 2 times see the size difference?

He did not tell me how many follicles were mature or anything I know at least 3 but I saw a bunch more so we shall see they gave me another shot to help them grow for another day and tomorrow I take my trigger injection in my hip :( that is the one that hurts! after that we BD and then wait....I am not going to be telling my test date this time because I am also taking progestrone and am really positive so we shall see I will update soon!
