Archive for September, 2007. New cycle starting early. Since I’ve been taking metformin my cycle has been pretty consistent. Every 28-31 days. A little surprised to get my period today as it’s a week early. Also odd that it arrived on the day we’re moving…like I need one more thing to think about today! Always disappointing to see AF. Arrive. I usually get warning signs…the 24 hour moodies, bloating, and pangs (my word for ‘not quite cramps’)…but nothing this month. September 30, 2007 at 6:26 pm. Subscri...

Infertility Survival Handbook – A Must Read | My (in)fertility blog
https://myinfertilityblog.wordpress.com/2008/03/03/infertility-survival-handbook-a-must-read
Infertility Survival Handbook – A Must Read. March 3, 2008 at 10:28 pm. During my recovery from laparoscopy. Surgery I’ve had lots of time to read. I finished up the Infertility Survival Handbook. Written by Elizabeth Swire Falker and thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks Stefanie for the referral! I learned a lot about various blood tests that I haven’t undergone yet. I’m not sure if they’re commonly done up here but at least I know what to ask about now. I’m not sure when my next cycle will start but I&#...

Going for a non-fertility related ultrasound. September 10, 2008 at 3:05 am. Since I’m currently on hiatus from the clinic while I recover from the ectopic pregnancy surgery I’ve been taking care of other health issues that have been ignored the last couple of years. I went for a physical, had my teeth cleaned, and today had an ultrasound on a strange lump I noticed in my leg. Entry filed under: Frustrations and Problems. The difference between love making and baby making. 1 Comment Add your own. You are...

Archive for March, 2008. Baby-making according to the calendar. This month we’re kicking it old skool style and trying to conceive the old-fashioned way. You know…getting between the sheets in our own bed for a little tumble without a needle, speculum, or catheter in sight. March 5, 2008 at 2:17 pm. Laprascopy Follow Up Appointment Postponed. Should we do another IUI cycle now that the endometriosis has been cleaned out? Or jump right to IVF? And what does that mean if we decide to try IVF? Thoughts on a...

https://myinfertilityblog.wordpress.com/2007/10
Archive for October, 2007. The wait is over. The results are negative. On Sunday I went to the clinic for the 2 week post IUI blood test. Later that afternoon, while I was doing dishes, the clinic called to report the result: negative. I have felt my body getting ready to have a period so I wasn’t shocked. But I was, and still am, very sad and frustrated. For the first time since starting TTC, my mind is starting to think long-term. What if this never works? And the list goes on…. I hate this part. T...

Archive for December, 2007. Waiting with bated breath. I go in for my post-IUI pregnancy test on Sunday, Dec. 23rd. Could be a very happy Christmas but I’m also trying to be realistic and not get my hopes up too much. Kinda like when I wanted that new shiny red bike when I was 10. I got the bike so maybe the baby will follow🙂. December 21, 2007 at 6:46 pm. Describing the full IUI experience. Earlier this week my blogging friend, preconceived notions. I haven’t seen exactly how she hooks it all up ...

Archive for August, 2007. Progesterone suppository in urethra. Every 20 minutes I got out to pee. And let’s just say it was good noone else was around as the burning sensation had me swearing like…well I’m not sure anyone has ever used that many expletives in the space of 90 minutes except possibly the characters in the movie, Reservoir Dogs. August 28, 2007 at 1:22 pm. Tough decision to travel next month. August 25, 2007 at 6:46 pm. First time on Clomid. So this is my first time on Clomid. I started...

Laparoscopy Experience: Patient Perspective of ‘Going Under the Knife’ | My (in)fertility blog
https://myinfertilityblog.wordpress.com/2008/02/25/laparoscopy-experience-patient-perspective-of-going-under-the-knife
Laparoscopy Experience: Patient Perspective of ‘Going Under the Knife’. February 25, 2008 at 7:49 pm. On Friday I had a laparoscopy. When I was researching what’s involved with this procedure I didn’t find a lot of details from a patient perspective so thought I’d sum up my experience. It might get a bit lengthy and I won’t be offended if you click away to something more interesting…like what Nicole Kidman was wearing at the oscars last night😉. I was really relieved to hear my own doc’s voice as s...

No, I’m not pregnant yet. August 22, 2008 at 10:26 pm. It has been months since I’ve posted here on this blog. Life got crazy and busy and I ran out of energy for writing. But today I logged into my account and noticed this comment:. Love your sense of humor. I am hoping you have been able to concieve. Please blog an update if you are indeed successful. Thank you rom an unknown older woman who ran across your post with the google question, how long can sperm survive. The hospital performed another ultras...

Laprascopy Follow Up Appointment Postponed | My (in)fertility blog

Laprascopy Follow Up Appointment Postponed. March 4, 2008 at 1:54 pm. I was supposed to have my post-op appointment yesterday but the doctor had to reschedule. I’m still a couple of weeks away from getting my period and being ready to start a new cycle so I guess it doesn’t really matter. It will give me a couple more days to think of any more questions. Here’s my list so far:. Should we do another IUI cycle now that the endometriosis has been cleaned out? Or jump right to IVF? Entry filed under: General.
