The doctor didn't want to test my hormones this month, she just wants to see me if I am not pregnant to talk about the next step to take. Obviously I am hoping there won't be a need to see her except to confirm pregnancy...but we shall see....
Kort and my anniversary is tomorrow. We will have been married for 2 years. I cannot believe how fast the time has gone. Just a year ago we were in San Francisco enjoying our first big trip together. We had only been trying for a few months to get pregnant and while I was disappointed that it hadnt happened yet, I never could have guess what this last year has been like. In so many way it has been amazing! I have a home that I am comfortable in, a job I am good at, and a husband that still treats me the same way he did when we were dating...like I am the most important person in the world.
I am still on the progesterone and my hormones are leveling out it seems, no more night sweats or hot flashes so that is good! Now we just pray that this is the month and trust that God has a plan for us that is above what we plan for ourselves!!

Clomid- Month 3
These hot flashes are going to be the death of me!! I am normally a cold natured person and I would rather be hot than cold...but not lately!! The Clomid and Progesterone are messing with my hormones enough that I am having hot flashes and night sweats and I HATE IT!!
I do have to say that this last round of Clomid has been the easiest on me...just a few headaches, no migraines and no other symptoms like I was having so that was a relief! Last cycle my Progesterone was better but not as high as it needed to be so I am doing it twice a day instead of once, so hopefully that will work. I feel like we are moving in the right direction, I just hate how long it is taking us to get there.
My doctors office is really starting to frustrate me, even though I know it really isn't their fault. My doctor was out of town last week on vacation but was still able to look at my Progesterone results (which I thought was nice considering the last thing I would want to do in Hawaii is look at lab results). The nurse called me and told me to double up on my Progesterone and that the Dr wanted to see me on the 5th day of my cycle...the problem was that was Wednesday and she was still out of town. The nurse said she would ask what the Dr wanted me to do and let me know....I never got a call back.
I knew the Dr would be back today so I called to see if I need to make an appointment and when I need to go in to get my hormones checked this month. A nurse calls me back to ask what all I needed and tells me she will ask the Dr then call me back...that was at noon today and I never got a call back!! I realize that I am not their only patients and that nurses have a lot to handle in one day but how am I supposed to know what to do if no one calls me back?!?!
Ok that is all the venting I am going to do on that because I know that all I can do is call back tomorrow and try to get an answer.
Nothing really exciting has happened since my last post so I don't have much more to add except that I am really hopeful that this month we will get one more step closer to having a baby, if not get pregnant. I know that by being hopeful I am setting myself up for disappointment but I can't help but feel like it will happen soon with the progress we have made in the last few months. Keep praying for us!!
