Hi everyone. 3 years ago I started the journey of ttc using clomid and IUI. Did 7 cycles within 1 year. After being beaten down decided to stop ttc and became foster parents hoping to adopt. Had 5 children under the age of 2 within 20 months but they all eventually went home leaving me once again childless. So we decided to go back and try again to have our own. This time went to a specialist instead of obgyn. Much more expensive but hopefully is worth it in the long run. Started injections and hcg shot. Had IUI on the 13th. Had progesterone level today and normal. 27th go back and have pregnancy bloodwork done. This waiting is HORRIBLE.
Hey Janice! I am soo happy to hear from you. Sorry to hear about the ectopic. I am glad you are trying again! This past weekend, Dh & I babysat for my SIL. Her & my bro are on the outs, but the one niece needed surgery, so of course we said we would. Anyways, they are: 4y/o, twins 1 y/o (almost 2 this wknd), & the one that had surg is going to be 3 on Halloween. We'll from watching them, we decided there is no way we would ever want that many. Not even the 3 we had "planned". I don't know how my SIL does it. 2 now seems like a good number-LOL! I don't really do facebook or myspace b/c DH says I already spend enough time on the computer. We'll keep me updated with your progress. I hope this IUI is successful. Felecia
Hey there, it has been a while since I was on here and you are right -- this site helped me with my first IUI's, miscarriage and over all support. I am happy to hear about your adoption. You will have to keep us posted -- I have thought about that myself at times. Since the m/c I was pregnant again but it was an ectopic. I had to have another HSG and thankfully my tubes were clear. I am finally starting back up and am on CD7. I had an u/s and blood work today and will go back Wed. I am thinking we will have an IUI sometime next week. Hopefully this one works and sticks but we'll see. I have been looking for you on facebook hoping you were there. Hope to talk to you soon!!!!

Just reading through my posts again & realized how much this forum has helped me through my moments in life. I just wanted to see how my ladies are doing? This site has been a great help & if anyone rereads this, they'll realize how supportive we have all been to each other. Anyways, just wanna update eveyone. DH & I will be adopting in 1 1/2 yrs. It will be a newborn & there will be no second gueses. Once the papers are signed, the birth parents can't change their mind, nor will they call us until they are signed. I spent half the amount it would have cost to begin with, so why not. In the end, we are all just looking for a baby to love, & this is my way. Well this is my update. Again just checking on others.
