Round Three Coming Up

After weeks of not knowing what we were going to do... just try ourselves or artificial insemination, we finally got the finances to do the later on October 18. Through multiple sources, God totally blessed us this past week and gave us enough money to pay off our remaining medical bills and go for round three. We were incredibly shocked and thankful, and this let us know we are doing what we're supposed to be doing.

On October 23, I will go to the doctor to see if my cysts are gone. If so, I will begin round three of injection medication. From there, I will go to the doctor, have some ultrasounds and see when I have large enough follicles to begin to try and get pregnant.

This round, Kim and I have decided to do an artificial insemination called Intrauterine insemination, or IUI. So, once I have follicles large enough, he and I will do the IUI. More to come in a few days!

No Luck

Monday, October 1 rolls around, so I get my blood drawn to see if I'm preggers. No luck! I'm bummed, but trying to find lots of positives in the situation.

Wednesday, October 3 is here, and I learn I have seven cysts so I can't begin hormone injections yet. My doctor is totally bummed for me as he was sure I'd be pregnant with triplets. I'll be on the pill for three weeks to see if the cysts reduce, and if so, I'll get to begin at that time. Now, I'm faced with another decision... do we go another round and just hope for good timing, or do we do artificial insemination? More to come on that one!
