Let me play coach, let me play!

And IUI #2 begins! I had my baseline u/s today – NO MORE CYSTS!Horray!I will begin with the Bravelle tomorrow at 225 IU for 4 days and return on Wednesday, 7/5 for another bloodwork and u/s. My month off was nice – I totally zoned out and pretended I didn’t have IF for almost 26 days. Because of that I also didn’t keep up with everyone’s journey – I’m going to remedy that this weekend as I catch up on all the blogs. Has anyone seen the special edition of People Magazine? It is all about celebrity babies. Being the dedicated masochist that I am I...

Update from the bench

Posted by on Jun 19, 2006 in Life or Something Like It | 0 comments

I guess I have been what is called a “bad blogger” for the past couple weeks. It has been hard to post since I’m not “doing” IF** right now. Crazy way of thinking, yes? I’ve been trying to keep busy to avoid counting the minutes until I can cycle again (sometime the first week of July). The bcp are making me bitchy (at least that is what I’m going to blame it on) and my skin is broken out. Aren’t bcp somtimes prescribed to clear up skin? Dr. Phil is doing a show on infertility. I’m a Dr. Phil fan I must admit and I’m very happy...

BCP for conception?

How crazy is this IF world? I’m officially taking birth control pills to supress my hormones and help my cysts resolve. I thought I’d never take another bcp after I quit 7 years ago. Actually, I thought I’d have about 9months off and then start them again. Ah, life never goes according to plans. Anyway, I have to thank two buddies on my IF bulletin board and commenter Keeping the Faith for encouraging me to take matters into my own hands. Why wait to see if a month off works and THEN need to take bcp? Especially with a 34mm cyst. The nurses act like “what is a...

Benched

Posted by on Jun 7, 2006 in Life or Something Like It | 0 comments

I’m benched! I had like 3 follies over 13mm on the left and one at 34mm on the right. 34mm? WTF? I haven’t done any research on what the heck that means! Either way – no IUI or stims for me this month while my ovaries calm down. I really have mixed feelings about this. I’m partially bummed that I can’t do something active to get pregnant this month (although we will go au naturale – since that has worked so well for us ). On the other hand, it will be nice to have a month off from hoping and worrying. On another front I found out some additional...
