JewelX!! Welcome to BnB! I'd love to have you as a TTC buddy! This website is amazing and full of wonderful women who makes this journey a whole lot easier!
So update Smooch and TTCBean!!! I went to my RE appt today and it was even better than expected!!!! My RE looked over DH's SA and said his morphology is slightly abnormal, which means they aren't all shaped well. So she definitely recommended the IUI with clomid because I am all good and they think maybe his bad sperm has been blocking the good sperm. So with the IUI they will wash the sperm and take all the good ones to put in my uterus! We also just ordered Fertilaid for DH to take to help him have healthier sperm.
SO THE BIG NEWS!
We're doing the insemination next Friday the 30th!!!!! We go in the morning for the 1st one and then Saturday morning for the 2nd one. Then I go in CD 19 in the morning to check my progesterone levels and 11 days after that I go in to take the pregnancy test!
I started 150mg of Clomid today and I take it CD 3 through 7. Then when I go in for the insemination they will give me Ovidrel, which is a trigger shot.
Its so crazy because everything fell into place perfectly. Remember how I said my periods were every other month since October? Well I had one last month and really didn't think I'd get it this month but as I already informed you girls I started yesterday. My original appt was for this past friday but they called me to reschedule for today. When I told her I was on my 2nd day of my cycle she was thrilled and said your body is ready right now! Lol so I was like OMG this is moving quicker than I thought! They just used today as my day 3 to start the Clomid. Then she was like come back in 11 days for the insemination which is also crazy because I didn't tell my boss we were doing this and was thinkin crap how am I gonna ask for the days off but I already had those days requested off cause we are going to a hockey game that night. So I don't have to miss any work and DH gets his bonus check from work the day before the insemination which is when we have to pay. Its like everything was meant to be....I just HOPE AND PRAY that we are successful!
Please girls keep your fingers and toes crossed for me! I am trying to contain my excitement but its hard. Just the thought that I could be pregnant within the next few weeks makes me wanna cry! DH is scared of the side effects of Clomid btw
My nurse warned him
I hope I don't get too crabby, I'm a receptionist!
