Well, we had our follow up appointment today with the RE. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, I was a little nervous about it. But the dr was so nice and willing to get us moving as quickly as possible. Which is nice to hear. I was worried about a forced break. Basically we didn't learn much. All my blood work came back normal. They are still testing the tissue removed with the DnC, so I guess if something is wrong with that, they'll call. So our new plan is basically the same as the last plan. They are upping my clomid dose and I'll do the same procedure as before. I will however do an HSG in the beginning of my next cycle. I'm not worried about the procedure itself, just the cost. But my parents are willing to help us with whatever we need. I just feel bad about asking them for money. My mom and I have talked at length about this and she basically just said they have the money and they will help us. Which is so nice. Such a relief! The HSG could be down down here but my dr will actually do it if we go up to GR. And they will charge quite a bit less than the radiology department here. So I'm all about driving the 45 minutes to 1 hour to GR in order to have them do it. If we're going to go to all the trouble seeing a specialist, then they might as well do all the stuff we need done! That's my opinion anyway. And Dean agrees. So again, we wait. When my next cycle starts I will call to make all these appointments...yuck to the appointments, but I'm excited to move forward again! I pray this will work and we won't have to move on to the next step. If this cycle of Clomid doesn't work, we will move onto FSH shots everyday, which according to the dr increases the chance of multiples to 20-25%, increases the possibility of OHSS, and other issues as well. Although Dean would love multiples (or so he says! haha!), we'll see what happens.
I'm sorry this is happening and that we had to be at that appointment today, but I'm thankful that we are able to see a specialist who is making it his priority to get us pregnant and able to carry a baby to term. I'm thankful for my friends and family for their support. I'm thankful for the online community where I learn so much about this journey. And I'm thankful for my husband. If I didn't have a loving and supportive husband, I don't know if I could do all this.

And now...in the meantime...I am going to make my health a priority. I am going to start eating a little better, getting back to the gym, and just trying to be a better person. If I try I might be able to lose a few pounds before we start trying again. That would probably make me feel much better! So that's the plan...we'll see how well it works:-)
