toddler & ... (my no baby blues)

now it's coming to you, the lessons I learned won't do you any good, you've got to get burned, well the curse and the blessing they're one and the same, baby it's all such a treacherous gain

psalm 113 (the message)

... who can compare with God, our God, so majestically enthroned, surveying his magnificent heavens and earth? He picks up the poor from out of the dirt, rescues the wretched who've been thrown out with the trash, seats them among the honored guests, a place of honor among the brightest and best. He gives childless couples a family, gives them joy as the parents of children. Hallelujah!

a brief reproductive history

April - May 2008
- third oi with injectable fsh, second iui - not pregnant
February - March 2008
- natural, anovulatory cycles - not pregnant
January 2008
- second oi with injectable fsh, first iui - not pregnant
December 2007
- fourth spontaneous ovulation (I think) - not pregnant
November 2007

October 2007

September 2007 - third (known) spontaneous ovulation - not pregnant
July 2007 - final clomid (150) cycle - no ovulation - not pregnant
June 2007 - second ever (known) spontaneous ovulation - not pregnant
April-May 2007 - clomid (150), delayed ovulation - not pregnant
March 2007 - clomid (150), perfect cycle, good postcoital test - not pregnant
February 2007 - third clomid cycle (100), poor response - not pregnant
January 2007 - second clomid cycle (50), delayed ovulation - not pregnant
December 2006 - first clomid cycle (50), good ovulation - not pregnant
November 2006 - SA results are stellar - not pregnant
October 2006

September 2006 - gyn diagnoses PCOS, recommends clomid, prescribes metformin - not pregnant
November 2005 - I ovulate for the first (as far as I know) time - not pregnant
Many Years - of charting extremely irregular cycles and mostly mellow "what will be, will be" sex and occasional panic attacks. Yes, I do now wonder what I was thinking. But in my defense, gyn was not concerned as long as I was not concerned, and told me I had "plenty of time". I hope she's right!
January 1, 2000 (or 2001? I can't remember! It was so long ago), bye-bye birth control pills, hello "preconception" (I laugh) check-ups (for both of us!) and an all clear to start making babies.
