So, where am I now?
Before I am going to post another mammoth post about my several reproductive ailments (sorry, internet, I have lots to get out on this one), I thought, why not sit down for a minute and ponder about where in the process of “baby-making” we currently are.
Diagnostics on me: check
Diagnostics on Mr. H: apparently almost irrelevant
I had my operative hysteroscopy in December, which sort of meant a deliberate act of egg kamikaze that particular cycle due to no sex around ovulation time. And surprise: No PMS symptoms that cycle – AT ALL. And I really listened hard. Go figure.
The following cycle was delayed by taking estrace for 7 days to see if my lining was willing to cushion up. Apparently, the result was acceptable, 8mm, and that’s, internet is what I am shooting for. Acceptable. Thanks lining!
I am currently waiting for my period. I have my PMS symptoms (hello back-pain!), so I know it can’t be far away. I am actually sort of curious to see whether my blood flow will have increased due to a healthier (so I hope) lining. Of course, deep down I am still hoping to be pregnant. But I guess, I don’t even have to mention this to you…..oh, but wait, there is blood in my underwear now. Day 1 has arrived.
Just called the clinic and they want to see me tomorrow for my baseline appointment. Tomorrow. I’m overwhelmed right now. IVF. How again did we end up here?

IVF is the scariest thing in the world, and our only option too. I really hope that it works for you.
