On the road to IVF

Image
After seeing my consultant today, i feel.......a little worried, a little apprehensive, yet a little like I'm on the road to another challenge. When my Dh when for his vasectomy reversal, we didn't get warned about antibodies killing off his sperm. Our consultant thinks this may be the problem, although not 100% sure, Tests are been done! Also due to my long cycles rearing their head after so long ( guessing the clomid is totally out of my system) he has decided i need another ovary scan. So that is all but booked in just waiting for the date. Until then i have been put on Metformin . A drug generally used for type 2 diabetics, although recent studies have seen it help women with fertility problems. We are on the road to either IUI or IVF , It seems that after 3 years with no luck that is the only option. There are a lot of pros and cons to look at when dealing with the treatment. The main factor is the cost! How expensive!!! Luckily i have opted for the egg share whic...

A step back in time

Have you ever sat and thought , i mean REALLY thought of what things were like when you were a child. What games you played or friends you had? When ever i think of my childhood, non of them come into mind first. I mean of course i played games and i had some friends but they arnt what i think of straight away. Can you remember the first memory. Take your mind back to when you were 5? what do you remember ? 4? anything? 3? Hmm get harder doesn't it. I think my first memory and I'm not even sure if it is true. I was in a shopping center, my mom was giving me a dummy, but i kept flushing it down the toilet. Also for some reason a five pence piece keeps cropping up. Not the new ones like we have now it was the real old one that was the size of a 20p. That's as far back as i can remember . I remember the accident, which i had on a bus. I remember the brakes been hit and me on the top deck flying forward and banging my head. For some reason the way i see it in my min...

Poetic Thursday

Image
I thought i would keep in with The Gallery's theme this week and dedicate my poem to Birth. I wrote this poem when i first had my son. OK so its not about the birth of him...but it was the birth of him that gave me the opportunity to write it. Does that make sense lol? A life Story If time could tell a story, i wonder how it would be. If each and everyone should tell theirs, then the whole wide world would see. If i told mine to you today this is how it would be. Not so long ago in a house i lived, with 3 sisters and a bro, A mommy and step daddy whom loved us so In this house lived a man. A nasty man was he He hurt me bad, that made me sad, but a secret it should be. He did things that made me sick, feel dirty all the time And no on came to help me, because i showed no sign. Then i grew up, a big girl now was i And i told the whole wide world about this nasty guy. Nothing good could come from it, i knew that from the start But at least the hurt and pain had stopped, or at least a...

A new road to take?!

I'm having one of those days today where you have to be optimistic. Had another blood test this morning will get the results no doubt when i go to the hospital of Friday. I've been going over the past 10 week in my head, what went wrong? Why did it happen? Was it something i did? Didn't do? But my biggest question is why has it dragged out soooo long. My oh my mother nature can be sooo cruel. So I'm hoping and praying that when i go to the hospital on Friday i get the all clear and am able to get on the band wagon again to ttc. The stomach pains seem to have eased as does the bleeding so that's a good sign....just waiting on the nasty witch to show her face! Although tbh she will be a blessing this month but....only for this month. So heres hoping its a new road to take....the ttc journey take 2! Coming up.....How to help conceive twin/multiples naturally..intrigued????
