Progressing Nicely

I want to thank everyone for taking the time to read this.  So many of you have reached out and offered your support and I cannot even begin to explain how much that means. 

I know that my posts may seem a bit down sometimes, but this is not to cause concern to anyone I know in real life.  I PROMISE that I am ok.  I’m a tough cookie and am proud of the way I bounce back from setbacks and move on.  I needed a place to vent and by sharing this I hope to help someone who may be going through something similar.  I also want this to give others an understanding of what secondary infertility is and that just because someone gets pregnant and has a baby easily once, doesn’t mean that it is going to be easy the second time around.  This is a huge learning process for me too and unfortunately, I know more than I ever wanted to about this subject.  Knowledge is power, right? 

I went back to the dr this morning for more morning monitoring, which consisted of bloodwork and vagi-cam.  I am responding well to the medication I am using, follistim.  My lining is already measuring at a 6 and I have one follicle in my left ovary measuring at a 12.  So as of right now, everything is progressing as should be and I go back for another monitoring appointment on Saturday.  The lab is closed the week between Christmas and New Year’s, so most IVF patients aren’t in the office for monitoring until after the 1st of the year, which is awesome for me because I am in and out in about 20 minutes. 

I am feeling confident about this cycle and will update again after my next monitoring appointment on Saturday. 

Until then……..xoxoxo
