Just a quick update for those who have asked if Jacob and I are able to do an IUI yet or what our plan is at this point...
I took Clomid this month and planned to have an IUI about a week ago. I had an ultrasound on day twelve, and had several small follicles but only one "lead" or mature follicle. My uterine lining was also too thin. Although the doctor wasn't overly concerned about this, Jacob and I decided that we just couldn't put the money into a "long shot" IUI. We decided to cancel the procedure.
Although this cycle isn't necessarily a complete bust, it's not a great month for us either. I was disappointed with the results of the Clomid. They will be switching me to a new medication next month and we'll try again!!
By the way, instead of the IUI, we spent a little bit of that money to go to a hotel in Louisville and spend a little quality time together....so nice!
Thank you all for your prayers for us and for being so concerned!! It really does mean so very much to have so many people reading the blog and letting us know that you're thinking of us and praying for us!
On a completely different note, I know I haven't been blogging much lately. I've been blessed to be able to spend quite a bit of time at home with my sister and her sweet new addition!!! It's too hard to put Bristol down long enough to type a blog. :) I love being here to snuggle with her! And my sweet Brenna girl turns 4 tomorrow! It's so hard to believe that she's growing up so quickly!!! She's so very entertaining and just precious beyond belief. I love my two sweet nieces so much!!!!
Erica I know it doesn't help you much but I just wanted to say this was where my sister in law was the month she got pregnant! She failed many months of clomid and it was their last try and they were doing an injection of something to trigger ovulation. The doc said the clomid failed and not to bother trying. And that was the same month they got pregnant. There's always hope!! (but you already know that!) Your time will come!
