HCG Mix up

So they accidentally called in another prescription for HCG for me this month when I still have it from last month since I was told not to trigger.

If I would have known they were going to do that, I would have triggered last month against the doc's advice.  Sure, it would have been super risky but I'm getting desperate at this point!

After I got off the phone w/ the pharmacy about the HCG I was like crap! I should have just told them to send it so I would have extra and I could do it on my own if the situation comes up again.  I like to think that I can think quick on my toes...but not this time!

CD3

I go in tomorrow morning for an ultrasound to make sure Aygestin did its job and I'll start Clomid 75mg and then do an HSG trigger if the Clomid works, which I'm pretty sure it will.

I can't believe they're going to do an ultrasound with me still bleeding!! Ugh, I'm going to be so self conscious.  I think I'll take some wet wipes with me and ask to use the bathroom beforehand.

My pelvis still hurts today.  I have stuff I need to get done around the house but all I want to do is lay around.

Ovulation?

I still have a headache, not a severe one but enough to bother me.  Also, I've been having a lot of twinges and pains on the sides of my abdomen as well as mild low back pain.  Overall I just feel crampy.  OPK this morning was negative so my LH surge definitely was yesterday.  My BBT went up today so if it goes back down tomorrow I'll know that I'm done ovulating.  I'm really really hoping this is it! I'll be testing around July 24th.  The Hubs birthday is the 21st so I might chance it and test early to give him the ultimate birthday present! Unless I have other super crazy symptoms, I won't post again until I test :)  Wish me luck!

Look What I Got

Last night I went to bed with an awful headache and I was so nauseous.  I had mowed the yard about an hour before so I blamed it on my allergies. I woke up this morning to this!

I'm tempted to call The Hubs and tell him there is an emergency so he'll come home.  We need to do it like rabbits! This makes me feel SO hopeful.  I'm super excited! I am 6 days post my last Clomid pill.  My temps don't mimic this +OPK....well at least I don't think so and I'm too lazy to put all the numbers into Fertility Friend to see what it says.

CD14.3

I've been horrible at updating.  Honestly I've been horrible at updating everything except Twitter recently.

Short recap:  CD5-9 I took 50mg of Clomid in hopes of producing good size follicles so I could inject HCG.  I went to the doctor yesterday for my CD13 check and no big follicles.  They were all under 10mm.  Yesterday I started 100mg of Clomid.  My doctor used the analogy "your water isn't boiling yet.  I'll keep turning up the heat until it does" ha!   I return to the doctor on CD21 for a follicle and mucus check again.  Lets pray for some big ones so I can trigger!

Before my appointment yesterday, I was instructed to have sex right before the appointment.  The Hubs does not do well with scheduled sex and he doesn't like the pressure.  I decided to not tell him and just try to be sneaky and spontaneous with waking him up with sex yesterday morning.  Here is an excerpt from my personal blog to share how my morning went.  Beware of the strong language:

Last night I told The Hubs to make sure the alarm is set early enough for us to have sex in the morning.  I didn't tell him that it was doctor's orders...I just made it sound all exciting and stuff.  I even used the words "do you want to wake up with your dick in my mouth" lmfao  We had this discussion about how he will need to pee first.

I never hear his alarm clock...I usually wake up when he gets out of bed.  So at 5:43 he gets out of bed.  I remember looking at the clock and thinking wtf he has to be at work at 6.  I hear him in the bathroom so I'm like oh, its ok he's just going pee and then he'll come back in.  Then he lets the dogs out and then he goes to smoke.  WTF I am still at this point thinking ok I know he wouldn't forget our plans.

....and then he starts to put his shoes on and shit hits the fan.

"What about having sex this morning"

"I'm already late for work.  You were suppose to wake me up"

"You know I never hear the alarm! I was waiting on you to go pee!!"

I was on the verge of tears at this point

"What is the big fucking deal?!?

"We HAVE to have sex ok?! We just fucking have to and I wasn't going to tell you.  I was trying to be sneaky but apparently you didn't want to fulfill my needs very badly did you?!

"What do you mean?! What are you talking about"

At this point I'm bawling on the bed and explaining to him the situation.  He's just staring at me like omfg you can't be serious.  He gets on the phone and calls in late to work

Pretty dramatic huh? We are suppose to have sex again before the appointment next week.  I have chosen to just tell him this time to avoid all the drama and tears.

I should probably tell you that fraternal twins run in my family.  My dad is a twin and my great uncles were twins.  The fraternal twin gene is the hereditary one..not identical.  With the use of Clomid, HCG and my family history, I have a pretty high chance of multiples.....well, if the medicine works and my body would cooperate. 

I'll try to be better about posting after my appointment next week :)

CD23.2 ~ Doc Appointment

I guess I was mistaken last month.  Last month I did not produce a follicle like I thought.  There were some small ones, but not big enough ones.  This month I did not ovulate or produce large follicle, just like last month.  The Provera with Actos alone isn't working for me.

This month I will continue on Actos, another week of Provera and then CD5 I'll start Clomid.  I also should be expecting a phone call from a pharmacy to take my insurance information for HCG.  I don't know a whole lot about HCG.  I need to google it and freak myself out. haha

I'm a little disappointed with the outcome of this month, but not surprised.  I knew I didn't ovulate because my temps were flat and my boobs never started hurting.   I'm not even going to post my temps from this month because they're so boring.  They basically stayed between 97.2 and 97.6.

The Hubs and I have had horrible luck the last few months so I just keep telling myself something good has to come soon....maybe that something good will be pregnancy!

CD1.2

AF arrived today and not on a good day.  I called the doc to set up a CD22 appointment but the office is already closed.

My hips and abdomen are killing me and I have way too much crap to do today and tomorrow. Tomorrow is moving day! A lot of drama has come along today but that's not what this blog is about :)

Have a great weekend!

Provera post day 4

Ugh, my hips are killing me.  AF has to be coming soon.  Also, TMI, but I've had wet farts.  Not like stuff coming out, just wet. LOL Yeah, I'm gross but this always happens soon before AF comes to town.

This is moving weekend so I'm really hoping AF holds off until at least Sunday.

CD17

I've been feeling funky today and yesterday.  I'm blaming it on ovulation though.  Yesterday and today I've felt like I just did a bunch of sit ups.  Yesterday, I guess you can classify it as my ovaries were hurting? I had kind of a jabbing pain just inside of my hip bone.  Today I'm feeling a little nauseous, no appetite and a slight headache.  I'm been a little more tired than normal but it's not a "omg I have to go to sleep right now" kind of feeling. 

This morning my temperature took a huge spike, more than it normally does at this time.  It went from a 97.2 to a 98.8.  I even retook it thinking that maybe I was just too hot under the covers! haha  I know a temperature increase signals the end of ovulation but it was just strange it went up so high. 

I've been listening to two songs over and over again crying like a big baby! The first is Adele's version of Make You Feel My Love.  She does an amazing job of Bob Dylan's song.  It's beautiful, soulful and moving...I love it.  The second is Then by Brad Paisley.  Also, I watched One Tree Hill tonight and cried through most of it...although that show always makes me cry.

My next doc appointment is Monday.  The last few days I've been imaging going in and him doing an ultrasound and mucus check and saying "you're pregnant!".  Then I go into thoughts about how I will tell the Hub and who I will call first. I really need to just stop with those thoughts.  I know I just set myself up for disappointment. 

I have to start focusing on the positive and believe in every little milestone.  According to my temps, it looks like I ovulated this month on just Actos.  That's a positive thing! Also, the Hub's sperm analysis came back and it's completely normal.  That's a positive thing!

Unless I have crazy symptoms this week to post about, I probably won't update again until after my appointment Monday.  Have a great week!

CD13

Well I think I ovulated yesterday.  My temp took a huge drop and went back up today. I never could get a positive ovulation test though.  I guess the doctor will be able to tell when I see him May 3rd.  We had sexy time the day before yesterday and last night.

This morning I woke up not feeling well.  It could be anxiety and stress though.  We're in the middle of selling our house and finding a rental and my husband is up for orders to transfer across the country so we're in the middle of figuring out where we'll be moving to in December.  I'm a little behind in my work and have no motivation to do it so that has been weighing on my mind as well.

Besides...people don't feel sick that soon anyway right?!
