Iui scan

Well yesterday aaron and I headed to ohio reproductive medicine and met with dr williams. I had an ultrasound and had about 9-10 folicals growing. Folicals are what eggs produce from. I have 3 follicals that should be big enough to produce a mature egg.
After the ultrasound my dr talked to us about the success rates. Right now naturally my chance of conciecing is 1%. With clomid it raised to 4%, with clomid and iui we are at a 10%. Praying we are in that 10%!

After that we went to the nurses for aaron to learn how to give me a shot and get everything scheduled. Saturday night aaron will give me a shot which will nake ne ovulate in 36 hours. Monday morning we will go to the office and have the insemenation done. A week later I will go for blood work that will say how good my ovulation was. Then 9 days later we can do a home test.

Please keep us in your prayers as we undergo these very emotional treatment. We feel the prayers daily.

Our journey continues

This past Sunday it became official. we will be trying artificial insemination in hopes and prayers that we will have our second child on the way. The one Christmas present I really wanted this year was a positive pregnancy test however it was not meant to be.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we continue this journey. It has been a long hard 18 months that has left me drained on so many levels. Aaron has been such an amazing supportive spouse through it all and a great shoulder to lean and cry on.  So here is to praying and hoping the next 3 months will lead to a positive pregnancy test.

I am currently taking a medication and then I am going to the dr
for an ultrasound next Wednesday. I will then learn if insemination will be 12/30 , 12/31 or 1/1
