Well as you can probably imagine my appointment today went GREAT!!!! my OB gave me the great news that I no longer have the cyst on my right ovary!!! This means, I don´t have to take BCP this next month, and I will be able to FINALLY start TTC as soon as I get my period, which should be here any time now!!!! We also discussed about me being worried about having a shortish luteal phase, mostly 11 days, he says while 11 days is not considered a luteal phase defect, he really prefers seeing a 12-14 day luteal phase…so since I´ve already had a miscarriage we´ll be trying to stay on the safe side and I´ll be receiving DAILY progesterone shots each cycle after ovulation…..So each cycle I´ll start prog. after ovulation, and 14 days later have a pregnancy test done, if it´s negative , I´ll stop the progesterone and start a new cycle…But when I do get a positive I´ll have to continue the daily injected progeterone for the first 3months of pregnacy…DH has agreed to learn , since he´ll be the one giving me the progesterone shots……So I guess I´ll be SORE as hell! but then again I´ll be more relaxed and I know at the end it will be worth the pain!!!!! so, I´m just waiting for AF to show, and baby making time!!!!!!! Wish me luck!!!! anyone here has had progesterone problems or short luteal phases???
Waiting…STILL September 18, 2008
So, I guess I haven´t been in the mood to write lately….I gues is the fact that there´s no news to report on the TTC department…. I was supposed to get my period, and have done some bloodwork on my 3rd cycle day….so what happened???? welll my body decided to confuse me and my OB….I usually get a day of dark brown spotting before my actual period begins (meaning red bleeding), well this time this spotting lasted for 3 days before I actually got my period…This had never happened before, and obviously my OB asked me not to do the bloodwork, since we were not pretty sure of which was the 3rd cycle day…..We were suposse to be checking closely this past cycle so we could try to see if my luteal phase was in fact short….It was eleven days if I count the spotting days as my period, or 13 If I dont……I´m not sure what happened, maybe i was thinking to much, and stressing to much about luteal phase, I don´t know….So my ob told me to wait for yet another month….The thing is our whole conversation was by telephone…I really don´t like talking to doctors by phone since I feel like they´re not paying attention as I would like them too….So here i am waiting for another month….I know, I know it´s just one more month, and I´m con CD 8 , and with my cycles being 27 days, that´s only 19 days to wait…….I´ve been repeating in my mind that it´s nothing, and that time wil fly by….i´m just tired of waiting, and I want to try again….I think I need to…It´s been 4 months since my miscarriage, at first I really felt no hurry to start trying again, mainly because I felt really scared, but now I´m ready!!!! Also, there are so many people close to me getting pregnant, it´s amazing,…I mean every week I hear of someone I know pregnant!!! it just makes me feel helpless knowing that I´m ovulating and not being able to do anything about it…..sooo what´s next??? I have an appointment with my OB on October 2nd….we will finally discuss face to face what to do in my next cycle….He probably will want me to get the bloodword done this time….Anyways, here´s hoping time flies by…….and trying not to go crazy in the meantime………….
