Hello to all from ICLW! I haven’t participated in ICLW for a few months so am super excited to get back into it!
I did have a good post all written up and ready to go but my computer froze and I lost it. So you get this instead! Lol
My hubby J and I have been married for almost 8 years and have TTC for 6 ½. In 2004 I discovered I had thyroid cancer and had my thyroid removed. We were able to get pregnant after that 4 times but lost all of those babies early on. I was diagnosed with PCOS last year and started taking Metformin which really hasn’t done anything for me at all. J and I decided that we want to adopt but since it’s so expensive need to save up for a while. So in the meantime we’re continuing trying to conceive. I started going to an RE in March and had a laproscopy & hysteroscopy in April. He removed some fibroids and a little bit of endometriosis but everything else seemed to be just fine. He did a bunch of bloodwork and discovered that I most definitely have PCOS, but unlike many, do seem to ovulate on my own which is a very good thing! I just started on Clomid yesterday so we’ll see how that goes. As I wrote in a previous post, I finally feel like I can have a bit of hope – something that has been very lacking with me for a long, long time. I’m struggling to find that balance though as I am so scared of being disappointed again.
At any rate, that’s my TTC journey in a nutshell! Looking forward to getting to know all of you more this month.
I'm so glad that you've gotten back some hope! I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Ovulating on your own is a good first step!

Hoping for you for this clomid cycle! :) Just curious - if you ovulate on your own already, what will the clomid do?
ReplyDeleteI hope the clomid does the trick and you get your BFP!

Here from the ICLW! Good Luck with your Clomid cycle. I hope it brings you your BFP!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck with the Clomid! It made me very emotional- much more so than the injectible medications ever did. Hoping that this is the month for you!
