still here... still TTC

For those who have been keeping up with my journey, I am still here :-) Still fighting for another baby :-) I went to my CD2 u/s with my RE and have to sit this cycle out with no fertility meds due to several large cysts (caused by last months fertility meds). I am praying that they shrink fast so I can try next cycle with an IUI. We have been trying for over a yr and a half. God willing it happens soon! I hope everyone is doing well :)

Thanks for the update! I'm still here too....I got some disappointing news from my RE.  I will need IVF.  We just don't have the money for that right now and time is of the essence (just turned 39).  But I'm trying to stay positive and pray for my rainbow baby. Good luck to you and all the TTC ladies on here.

I am soo sorry to hear this :-( why did they say IVF is your only option? I pray you will be blessed with a rainbow baby!!!!! Keep us updated! :)

Well they didn't say it's my ONLY option...just my best option.  My AMH levels are low and my FSH levels are high...basically I have low and poor quality ovarian reserve.  Even with IVF my changes are lower than other ladies in my age range.  But I'm going to keep being positive and stay prayed up! Where are the rest of the TTC ladies?  I know there are more of us out there!

Melanie were you the one that mentioned the Facebook support group? If so I never received my invite...not sure what happened.  I checked all my mailboxes. 

Anywho!  I'm on CD 3 and starting taking evening primrose oil.  I'm not planning on doing IUI this month or maybe even next.  Got to get my mind right and get back on track with my eating healthy and exercising.  I have been an outright pig since hearing the RE's recommendations.  My goal is to start back with my exercise on Sept 1st.

I am sorry! My AMH is low (0.9) and my FSH is boarder line high, and I am 25yo. They too said IVF is my BEST option but we could never afford it ;(. We will hopefully be doing our first IUI next cycle. Yes, I was the one who mentioned the FB group. Send my your FB info again and I will get the admin to add you. Now I am apart of 2 groups :-) I only thought there was one. I know what you mean, I have too fallen wayyyy off my path, I have gained about 15lbs ;-( its terrible!!!! I need to get motivated again! Good luck and keep us posted!!!!!

Wishing you lots of baby dust on your first IUI cycle!!! Is your doc giving you any fertility meds? Colmid? Trigger shots? 

I will email you my facebook info.

Thanks! Yes, I have done several rounds of clomid (100mg) and 1 fremara round. I have done 3 rounds with trigger shots (250mg ovridrel) and have never once had a bfp ;-( I respond faster with clomid but the the dryness I get from it is HORRIBLE. Fermara isn't as bad but I respond slower :-/ I have used Preseed as well to try to counteract the side effects. I think next round we are gonna do Clomid and estrogen then the trigger shot and progesterone. I have taken progesterone many times before as well. Hopefully that will be the magic combination! :-) I will send your info over to BOTH groups :-)
