Thanks ladies!! Now if I could only get those darn ovaries to work by themselves..........
 
OMG MrsN I'm sooo happy for you. Congrats :) And I have to admit I really like Sproglet. It's cute.
I'm glad your HSG went well Tysonme. Did it hurt? Can you walk me through it? or do I not want to know ahead of time what I'm getting myself into?

I'm still waiting on AF. I don't know why I assumed that the witch would be here right after I finished the provera. My last provera was on wednesday so I'm sure I have a little more wait ahead of me. I don't think I'v ever wanted it so bad. I just want it done and over with so I can't take my magic baby pills too.

Baby dust everyone

Here MrsN. I photoshopped you a Sproglet. Just wanted you to see how cute they are :)
 
shlindz and TySonNMe - good luck with HSG and post HSG action. I had my 12 week scan at the same place they did my HSG - they were so excited that I had gotten preggo straight after the HSG - said it was all their doing - even though my tubes were clear. Apparently its quite common - so good luck to you both.

shlindz btw my HSG was uncomfortable like strong period pain but taking the drugs help!
 
Hi Shlindz, I posted the whole experience in my journal. It was an extremely uncomfortable procedure for me. Afterwards, I popped 1000mg of extra strength Excedrin and was good to go. It is very much like bad period cramps, but I never get period cramps so it was soooo uncomfortable!! Every woman is different though...I don't want to jinx you!! Thanks Winks!! I'm hoping that we'll get that :bfp: soon!!
 
Thnx Winks and Tysonme. I'm going to read over that journal right now. I'm thinking of maybe starting my own ttc journal.
Quick question for anyone who as taken Provera. This is my first time taking it to induce AF so I can start the clomid. In the past I was given a different brand of medroxyprogestrone and I would take it for 5 days and on the 6th day I'd get AF. Well with the Provera I took it for 7 days and now 6 days lafter the last pill and still no AF. Instead I'm getting these horrible pains. It started sunday right after sex, but not during. It was such a curl up in fetal position and wait to die pain coming from everywhere down below. I took an advil and within half an hour it was pretty much gone. Throughout the day it was gone until that same night when it came back, but not as bad as the first time. Since then it comes and goes. I find it's usually worse when my bladder is full or empty, but not inbetween. And it hurts to urinate. Not burning or stinging like infection, but the muscles or something that help you "push". Not sure what it is, but it seems to be going away more each day. Any ladies have had similar problems? I tried a google search, but the symptoms are just too varied to inpoint what is causing the pain.
 
Hey Shlindz, I take Prometrium to induce AF. I never had any pains, but I take it right before bed. It knocks me right out...I love it! If you're having ongoing pain, maybe try calling the doctor or the pharmacist. Especially since you finished your script and still no AF. They might have you wait a few more days. Good luck hun.
 
soz can't help with the provera issue.. but re the HSG I took a tonne of painkillers before mine too... that might've helped it a bit :dohh:
 
Thnx ladies, the pain finally went away on Tuesday night. Still no Af though. I'v read on the net that it could take up to 2 weeks after the last pill. So I'm gonna wait and talk to the doc in 6 more days. I am a bridesmaid in my friends wedding this saturday so I'm sure the witch is just waiting for saturday morning :P
I'll deffinatly mention the pain the next time I see him too.
 
Shlindz pain is normal with provera I have a friend that takes it occaisonally and she was miserable taking tylenol and whatever she could to help.
 
Thanks Kelly. Ya I was not a happy camper with the Provera. Advil seemed to help a lot. AF finally showed on saturday. Luckily for me, I was a bridesmaid in the middle of my friends wedding. lol I told DH that would happen. The witch really has a nice sense of humour. I was afraid that this one would be really bad, but so far cramping is mild. I have to call the fertility clinic today and book my day 2-5 appointment.
*baby dust everyone*
 
Good luck with your apt.

Anyone who wants to guess the gender of baby kelly make you way ot my journal check out the latest bump pic and guess. Cazd you started off trying to guess but never told me what you were actually going with!
 
well it HAS to be a girl doesn't it??? I reckon you're on TEAM PINK!!!!!
 
Hi everyone
Can I join??

My DH and I are going to see our Doc next week to try and get referred for tests as we've been trying for about 16 months without success.
Have had one ovary removed because of a large cyst on it. The remaining ovary has had cysts too, and I've got a history of endo.

You all seem like a lovely bunch in this team, i'd love to join you
xxxx
 
Yay - come join us!
I had the same thing too - my right ovary was one massive cyst!

And did you know that your left ovary will now float around all over the place?!
Even all the way over to the right side!
 
Wow Cazd really? I'v never even thought of that before. If your ovary is floating around like that can it get damaged easier?

And welcome Starbright :)

So HSG today. Not sure why I'm so nervous. Probably just psyching myself up for nothing. I honestly don't know what I'm gonna do for the afternoon. We have to leave this morning to drive an hour and a half to another city and register at the hospital for 11:30am. Then the procedure is at 1:40pm. That's a huge waiting time. DH is gonna get sooo bored. He's like a 3 year old with stuff like that. Always has to be entertained. lol
 
So the HSG wasn't nearly as bad as I imagined. I like to look at it like an adventure. Dh and I travelled an hour and a half out of town to this huge hospital. On the way I used 2 maps and a gps and still got us lost twice. DH wasn't very pleased with my geography skills. lol We finally got to the hospital and started looking for xray department. The hospital was all new and modern and HUGE that we felt like we were in an episode of House (good tv show). So it's 11:30 and I have to register with the xray department and let them know I'm there even though my appointment isn't until 1:40. I had no idea why they wanted me there so early, but I figured it would be fun for DH and I to explore this amazing building. Unfortunatly the lady says, "ok you're all registered. Go have a seat and they'll call you in soon." I was so confused. I was wondering what the heck I was gonna do for a couple hours. So they call me back along with 3 other women and DH goes and sits in the waiting room. We get to this other waiting room and we're handed 2 gowns, a plastic bag, a pad, and a washcloth. We were told to strip waist down and put on both gowns and have a seat with the other women. The room was filled with women all sitting there with gowns on and the faces grim. It was like we were all about to be hushed into a gas chamber. As one women was called in through one door another would emerge looking pretty triumphant through another door. One lady finally lightened the atmosphere a little when she started cracking jokes about this being an assembly line. We all laughed and managed to start little conversations with one another. Everytime we heard a toilet flush and another face emerge through the victory door we would all ask her how it was. Each one would say "oh it's not too bad" or "better than I thought it would be". And each time we would all give a sigh of relief. Finally it was my turn. They called me and I followed into the procedure room. It was surprising nice in their. No scary instrument dripping with blood hanging from the ceiling. You can imagine my relief. lol The doc told me to get up on the table and bend my legs. Well most of you know the rest of this story. I won't go into details. Yes it was a little uncomfortable. Usually is when doctors are poking around in there. But nothing I couldn't handle. I actually liked watching the screen and seeing the dye. Turns out my ovaries are in great shape and so is my uterus. I didn't suspect otherwise. Afterwards I felt really great walking through that victory door. I slayed the dragon and was coming home to a heroes welcome. Ok yes I do have a very overactive imagination. But what's life without a little humour and fun....boring! :P
So now I have an appointment bright and early wednesday morning and another friday morning. I super excited to see if the Clomid works and I O this month.

:dust:
