Keep on Truckin'

Yep, the Fertilaid is working. Fertilaid cycle 1, complete. No babies this time but I'll try it out for a few more months. I'm willing to be patient. There still may be another underlying problem but we'll walk down that road when we get to it. That's about all I have at the moment.

So far, so good

It's now been 11 days since I've been on the Fertilaid supplements and hadn't really noticed any changes. I knew that it took up to 3 months to see any improvements in your cycle per all the info read on the product so I was totally all about being patient with this stuff. THEN, I took an OPK today and by george, I think I'm gonna ovulate. It was very positive. Aaaaand, my CM is really fertile-looking today. It's day 20 of my cycle and I've been on Fertilaid since day 9? I think. I haven't been temping so I won't be able to really confirm ovulation but if my cycle ends in about 2 weeks, give or take, then we'll know this stuff is amazing. Hopefully if it's working so soon, it continues to work as long as I'm taking it.

I had my annual pap & pelvic exam on Monday and everything went well. Well, I haven't received a phone call with bad news yet anyway so I'll assume the best. I see a nurse practitioner who does my exams and I love her! I wish she was my actual doctor. She just always seems geniunely interested in her patients. She asked how my visit with my actual doctor went in February (as the Clomid phase was ending). I told her that Dr. Hess wanted me to get an HSG and the Mister to get a sperm analysis but we haven't done those yet for financial reasons. She said that the sperm analysis isn't too costly and that we should do it for piece of mind. So that might be in the works soon. I let her know I was taking Fertilaid and she seemed rather indifferent to it. She didn't express any concern and she didn't rave about it, mostly because she had never heard of it.

So I'll continue with the Fertilaid and check back in with this blog in about 2 weeks. Patience and hope, patience and hope.
