New Beginnings!

Well I'm back after a MUCH needed TTC break! There's nothing like taking a month off and restoring hope...and a week long vacation always helps, too! I feel so much better than I did a month ago and have a positive outlook on this new cycle. We read and watched The Secret, and have been implementing little things into our lives in order to stay positive. A couple weeks ago, I wrote "I WILL GET PREGNANT!" on my bathroom mirror in red lipstick. I find that it makes me smile when I see it.

So now we are back in the action of our 2nd injectible cycle, this time with a new doctor and a new medication - Follistim 150iu. This past Sunday, May 20th, was the start of this new cycle and I had my CD3 u/s and b/w yesterday on the 22nd. U/S was perfect and so was the bloodwork. Estrogen level = 37, FSH = 6.6 So I got the go ahead to start the injections last night.

After 3 nights of injections, I have b/w on Friday morning to see what my estrogen levels are and hopefully they will be rising (meaning the injections are working!). Then after 5 nights of injections, I have my first u/s along with more b/w on Sunday morning to see how my follicles are developing.

Updates to come on Friday with my estrogen level...
