TTC list for 10/16/11
Hi Ladies,
Sorry this post is so late in the day. I've had a busy weekend.
My 2WW ended right on time, on 10/14. I had TERRIBLE cramps the first day. As bad as my miscarriage. Ah, the joys of clomid!
Tomorrow morning I have an ultrasound to check for cysts. If there are no big ones, my OB will give me one last round of clomid. It will be my 3rd cycle on it. After that I will be working with the specialist.
How is everyone else doing? Let me know if you would like to be added, deleted, or edited!

hey nikki, sorry about the cramps. :/ good luck with the ultrasound. let us know how it goes.
i'm supposedly a week away from ovulation. but i noticed a little bit of clear sticky cervical fluid today but only after a BM. i'll take an OPK test tomorrow morning to see where i'm at. i'm charting my waking temps. i'm cramping which is annoying. but i'm excited about ovulating again. i feel like i was cheated last cycle. i think i'm getting back to normal after getting off those chinese herbs. i've been drinking one of my Yogi Women Teas that helps regulate your cycle and i think its helping a bit. i haven't really been thinking about the whole TTC thing because it seems like nothings been happening for a while. right now i'm just excited about the holidays and all the fun things there will be to keep me busy. :)

ACK! I did forget to post the list! Sorry guys!
I had my ultrasound today, no big cysts. I met with my OB afterward. She is letting me try one last clomid cycle. She agreed to up my dose from 50 mg, to 100 mg. I was ovulating on the lower dose (and before taking clomid) but my progesterone levels are still low. (4.8 on an unmedicated cycle, 11.8 on a medicated cycle. It should be 15 or higher on a medicated cycle.) Anyway, I asked questions about why the surgeon decided to remove my tube during surgery for my ectopic, as oposed to just cutting it open etc. She answered my questions and printed off my operative report. I bawled, but it was helpful to read for my healing process.
So, I start the clomid tomorrow. Maybe 3rd time is the charm right?
