November Update

A lot has happened in the last month. We worked out that we should be able to get the house we were looking at only to have Rich lose his job the day before we were to sign the paperwork. So, we're back to square one with no house and Rich currently with no job. *Sigh*

In better news, we had a doctor appointment today. Rich had his SA done a few days ago and we got his results. The SA count was 75 million which is great (it only needs to be 20 million to conceive a child). So that's good. I, on the other hand, have Hyperprolactonemia on top of the PCOS. I have to lose some weight and lower the prolactin in my system before I can stand any real chance of getting pregnant. I'm now taking medication to lower the prolactin level as well as the Metformin I had been taking. We have another appointment scheduled in 6 weeks time. Guess we'll go from there!

Toodles!

Good News Day

Today has been a good news day! First of all, barring us finding any more things to concern us in the contract, it looks as though the house is ours!! I'm super excited about this! I can't wait to move into our own house!

Secondly, for the first time, I have gotten the red cross-hairs on my Fertility Friend chart!!! This suggests that I have finally ovulated which is great news since I know I haven't been ovulating in the last year or so.

On top of all that, I found out I've lost another 2 lbs in the last week! I only lost 3 lbs total last month, so 2 lbs in a week is great! Just thought I would share my news!

Update for the Week

Not much really to report on anything. No solid news on the house and we're still waiting on AF to show up to start our 2nd cycle on Metformin. I have to test tomorrow but I expect to get a BFN, then will call the doctor to call in some meds to make AF start. Then we'll go from there.

Doctor wants us to do one more cycle on Metformin, then move onto Clomid if necessary. Right now I just want AF to start so that we can get on with it, lol. Based on my chart (which was incomplete this month, as I started charting late), it looks as though I may not even have O'd this month!!! My temps are all over the place. Oh well. We'll keep trying!

Guess I'll stop there for now. Hopefully I'll have more to report later!

Back to Blogging

I thought I would start blogging again since a lot of things in my life are on the brink of change. I'd like to be able to keep up with them and see what my emotions were like during this time. So.....here we go!

Rich and I have started fertility treatment. Right now its just medication, but hopefully this will correct the problem. If not, then we'll move on to further options. I hope we'll have success with this.

Also, we're trying to buy a home. Its not really the best time, but its the right time for us. Fingers crossed it happens.

I'm so glad its fall. This is my very favourite time of year! Halloween, Birthday, Anniversary, Thanksgiving and then Christmas. I'm just very excited!

That's it for right now, but hopefully I'll keep up with my blogging better this time!
