#1 fail

Cycle #1 failed. It really stinks. It's a little easier the second time around, because I know, no matter what, I have my Emmalee. If she is all we can have, so be it. I would like to give her a sibling though! Hopefully we'll get to do that! We'll just keep swimming!!!

TTC (trying to conceive) baby #2!!

So we've been trying on our own to have a second child since Emmalee was about 6 months old! So that didn't work out, and I've gone back to see my fertility doctor! Started September 1st with 225u of Gonal-f injections and did that for 6 days. Had an u/s and my few follicles weren't developed enough yet so we upped the dose to 300 for 8 more days. Today I had another ultrasound and I have 2 follicles that are almost ready, so I am going to take another 300u injection tonight. Tomorrow morning I take an hCg injection, which will make me ovulate and then on Saturday Andy drops off a sample, I go in a few hours later for an IUI (IntraUterine Insemination). We are really excited to get started on this and to have an aggressive Dr. who doesn't mess around! Hopefully this will work fast and we'll have some good news in the next couple months!
