@meganmp1: I’m going crazy waiting to hear from you! Fingers crossed for you!!!!!!!
@KoiKove: Thanks. These hotels don’t allow dogs. π We could get a neighbor to take care of him if we had to. Luckily, the current forecast is less than an inch of snow starting after midnight. We’ll just leave early and drive slow. I’m not going to worry about it anymore. π You’ll wait one more week to test? Fingers crossed! Don’t give up!
@missmegan11: Sorry you are having bad side effects. π I had horrible side effects with Clomid, so I totally understand. hang in there!!!

@Jenn23: This is all so excellent. You guys are amazing!
Well, to be honest.. nothing is making me ovulate so far. If the IVF drugs and injectables are what might do the job… well, do we spend all that money and just ‘see how it goes’? It feels like since we’re eventually headed that way anyway, it might be worth looking into now. Also, it depends on J’s next SA testing. If it shows issues on his second one, we might have THAT to worry about, as well as my annovulatin. We’ll have to wait and see what she says, I guess.
@KoiKove: Hopefully this will be your month! xx
@missmegan11: Good luck on the Femara!

@meganmp1: I am very sorry. This is so fucking unfair. I don’t even know what else to say.
I apologize for the language, but I am just pissed off that such wonderful, supportive, loving people on this thread are going through so damn much every single cycle. It is so fucking heartbreaking and just plain not fair. Most of you are so much further into this than I ever was, so I feel like I can’t truly understand your pain and frustration, so I won’t even pretend to. Just know that, although I don’t post here often, I do check in, and I can’t control my tears when things like this happen. It just breaks my heart and is so fucking unfair.

@heathaah: Well said. We are so close-knit here that it hits us all hard when it doesn’t work for someone else. It’s heart-breaking!

@jaguar: Do you have IVF coverage or would it be out of pocket? I know two women at work used Clomid and it didn’t do anything for them, but IVF worked for them. Maybe you need the stronger injections? I guess that is the best question for the new RE when you meet with her!

Has anyone taken Femara more than 5 days? My RE wants me to take 5 mg for 7 days and then come in for u/s and b/w. That seems like a lot especially when I ovulate on my own. I’m CD 6 right now, and have taken femara since CD 4, and I’m already having twinges in my ovaries. hmmmmmmmmm

@heathaah: Agreed. It is so ridiculously unfair. π
@Jenn23: Most fertility stuff isn’t covered, fully anyway. The fertility centre we’re going to is a not-for-profit organisation attached to a hospital, so it’s fees are pretty reasonable. I don’t know exactly what our final ‘own’ costs will be, but I will definitely let you know as soon as we have our appointment. It’s always interesting to compare costs and treatments. I just feel like we’re wasting all this time already… I hate not being able to ‘DO’ anything. And I’m glad you mentioned Clomid not working for other people; I feel like I’m the only one on the web right now who hasn’t ovulated on it, lol.

@meganmp1: I’m so, so sorry.

I just want to second everything @heathaah said – I was a member of this board until about 10-11 months ago. I also never had to go through as much as you amazing women have, and so I haven’t felt that I had a right to comment, but I have still been checking in and cheering for all of you. I’m a million miles away (okay, maybe just several hundred or thousand,) but I follow all your stories as I have so wanted to rejoice for all of you when it was time for your good news. I was so happy to hear the good news for MerryC and Jenn23 (so far,) and was sending all the best wishes I possibly could for you. I’m so damn sad to hear this. I just wanted you to know that I’m sending you a cyber hug and support from Vancouver. I’m so so sorry. You are an incredible, sweet, awesome person, and you don’t deserve this. At all. It’s so unfair. I’m so sorry.
