Thank you for your advice. I do feel just journaling my thoughts and feelings is a big source of comfort. I have always been bad about keeping a written journal or diary, but having this space is helpful as I am online a lot. I hope everything wen...

It is interesting that you post about this. I have kept our struggles a secret from just about everyone since we began over three years ago. Tonight, for the first time, I let my mother in on what we had been going through. I wouldn't feel bad abo...

Thank you for sharing your story. There are many similarities with what my husband and I have gone through. Try not to beat yourself up for stopping trying. Trying gets extremely exhausting, mentally, physically and emotionally and clearly you had...

Consultation

I have lots of thoughts and feelings inside me after my consultation with the RE today. He was able to answer a lot of questions for me. He does feel it's time to step up the meds a bit. With my next cycle I will be doing femara plus FSH. My DH is worried about using FSH, but my eggs just were just not responding with clomid or femara alone. Mostly, he is worried about the possibility of twins. The RE went over the statistics and all that, but I agree it is a concern. The RE also wants me to wor… Continue

Anxious, nervous, frustrated...

I am getting anxious and nervous about my upcoming appointment tomorrow. I have my list of questions ready, and Josh (DH) is still planning on meeting me for the appointment. But of course just when I thought my body was regular, something changes. We were just talking last weekend that my periods were at least regular this time around. When we went to see the RE back in 2007, my cycles were anywhere from 29-40 days in length, but now they are closer to 30-32 days in length. Such an improvement.… Continue

Keeping secrets

The first time we went to the RE, everyone knew about, including our family and closest friends. They also knew we had been TTC for some time. Obviously there was a lot of questions as far as what was the problem, and what was happening...and of course the dreaded "are you pregnant yet?"
Now that we have decided to go back to the RE, I am trying not to tell anyone about it, although feel like I'm keeping secrets from my family and closet friends. Is that wrong? I feel so conflicted. I feel the u… Continue
