Well, no blood test was needed this morning as I started on Saturday. My doctor advised to go ahead and start using the progestin he prescribed to make sure my body was reacting properly. I have two more days worth of that medicine to take - it's not bad, doesn't make me feel sick, dizzy, anything like that. While I'm very sad that we aren't pregnant, I'm really thankful that it didn't turn up to be something like a cyst or a miscarriage. That would have been even more devastating.
I started another round of Clomid this morning to make sure my body ovulates since it got a little thrown off course this time around. This month is going to be chock full of doctor's appointments to make sure everything is ok - well, every month from now on will be, according to my doc. I have an ovulation sonogram (monthly now) on the 12th or 13th day of each cycle. Then on the 21st day of the cycle, I go in for a progesterone screening.
Our next option will be the IUI - more info here. I don't know what is stalling me, but I'm still not completely on board with this idea yet. We are still praying through this decision. Right now, we are considering using a fertility monitor in addition to our normal ovulation predictor kit to see if we can get a better read on my cycle at all and plan better.
My verse for the week:
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:26
