Just got back from RMA for follicle scan. I have 3 follicles, right now CD 12 they are 13, 14 and 15mm in size. I believe I have two on the left and one on the right, not sure though although I don't think it matters which side they are on. Dr wants to do another scan on Thursday and then IUI either Friday or Saturday, not really sure which yet. I'm happy I have three, they look very good and he said my lining looks great, so grow follicles grow!
Well things here in the cramping/spotting department are picking up in a fashion that makes me think my first clomid cycle ever may end in a somewhat early arrival of 
.... doesn't that seem counter intuitive to anyone else? I would expected with double the follicles I'd have double the hormones which would keep me going extra long? No? I started brown spotting 8dpiui which I thought could even possibly be a good thing, but it's gotten heavier with heavier cramping and now I'm 10dpiui with a BFN this morning and all signs pointing to AF by tomorrow.
LAME!
AF SUCKS!
<- In reality I'm using a lot more profanity but you get the picture

<- In reality I'm using a lot more profanity but you get the picture Hi everyone
I have just joined the forum tonight, so am trying to get used to all the abbreviations.
My husband and I have been TTC for almost 6 years now. It has been on and off during that time, but more on than off.
I have PCOS and have had a couple of rounds of clomid in the past few years. We took a break from it back end of last year and now we are back on it. Am just waiting for another referral from the hospital.
Feeling quite low about the whole situation at the moment as all my friends either have babies or are actively TTC. So was hoping to get support from some like minded people.

Hi everyone!
I'm new here, but have been lurking for a bit before I ever made my account. I figured this would be the best area for me, since we must do IVF...
A quick intro...
I married DH on June 13, 2009. We went to the ER thinking he had appendicitis on June 18. He didn't need his appendix removed. He needed part of his colon removed. He had a tumor. On June 24, he had a colon resection. It ended up being stage 3b colon cancer. Chemo and radiation were a must.
Anyone here with cancer experience knows that those words generally mean infertility, at least for short term. So we were asked if we wanted to bank sperm. Yes. Well, because of a complication from the surgery, DH's sperm had to be surgically removed.
So, because of all of this, we have to do IVF/ICSI.
DH has been cancer free since the day of his surgery (they got it all, the treatments were preventative), and that's fabulous.
We have almost got the medical bills from that paid off, and will soon be dumping money in to savings for IVF. I'm still doing research on clinics. The local clinic here (there's only one) is really very expensive compared to some that are just a couple of hours away. So. Nothing is set in stone. And I guess it doesn't need to be anyway, until we have WAY more money in our savings account.
Even though we are infertile, I still can't help but get my hopes up every month for a miracle. Some times I feel crazy, heck, I KNOW it's crazy. But hearing about people who were told they'd never have kids and then years later get prego just make me feel like miracles can happen. I wish one would happen for us. But, I guess IVF is a miracle in itself, isn't it?
I look forward to getting to know you ladies in here. And congrats to the posters that are celebrating right now for different reasons!
