Nothing new to report here.  Taking the provera and waiting for AF to show up so I can move onto our first IUI.  I am feeling hopeful about it, but not optimistic, if that makes sense.  Gary of course is my rock and he is convinced it will work.. LOL  Thank goodness for him or I probably would of given up.  It is my intense desire to make him the father that he will be SO excellent at being that is keeping me motivated.

Gary’s cousin died this weekend.  A tragic motorcycle accident, just three blocks from our house.  It is terrible and he was too young, just a couple years older than Gary.  His girlfriend also died and she left behind children.  My heart breaks for all involved.  The wake is probably going to be this Thursday and I can’t lie, I don’t want to go.  But I will, for Gary.

Well I had my followup with the doctor today.  He is convinced it was just a fluke.  A normal early miscarriage that alot of woman get and that it has nothing to do with my PCOS at all.  He said the high miscarrige rate is due to bad eggs and he claims I don’t have bad eggs, he said my eggs are fine, wonderful in fact.  (roll eyes)  He IS going to do some extra tests though.  Another uterine study, we are going to retest my insulin levels and a few other things.  He does NOT think we need karotyping yet nor an endometrial function test.  He really wanted us to do a FET cycle and we declined.  I am still not convinced those embryos are “good” even though he says they are.  We discussed IUI and he said that we would have no problem trying that.  He said my eggs are fine, Gary’s sperm are fine and they have NO problem fertilizing the eggs on their own.  So after my next period (beginning of August or so) we will start BCP and then around the middle of August or so we will start supressing with Lupron.  He said having pcos I NEED that Lupron to control my LH levels during stimulation and apparantly that Lupron basically negates the PCOS hormones which is interesting and I didn’t know that.  So we are looking at beginning to middle of September for the first IUI.  We will try that two or three times and if that doesn’t work then in January we will do the last fresh IVF.  So that is the plan.

Today I actually thought I might be ovulating.  I have been having a little twinginess in the left ovary area and a little ewcm happening and the doctor DID say it is possible for the medication affects to carry over a bit so I bought some ovulation predictor sticks.  Yeah right, not only was there no dark line, there was no line at all, so there goes that idea.  Today is day 14 so if I was gonna do it, it would be like now!  I will test for a couple more days just cuz I have the sticks, but not holding my breath.

Gary had his stress test today and everything was fine with that.  Next Tuesday is the echocardiogram.

And that is all the news that is fit to tell!

So yesterday I decided as part of Tammy’s wedding gift I am going to get her a handful of the pics I took last summer printed up nice and big for her. I gave her a CD of them, but I know if she did print any, she wouldn’t of done larger than 8×10. Sooo..

This one I got printed in 16×20, I think she will like it..

These three in 11×14:

And this one is 10×20 Vertical. LOVE how fun this one turned out..

Hopefully she will like them all. I figure I will get her a Gift Card for somewhere to buy the frames for them. I still feel horrible I can’t go to the reception but I am “over it”. I just know it isn’t possible right now.

In other news, I got myself a nice black eye last night! (roll eyes) I was putting away dishes and put my cutting board up on the shelf. I HEARD it sliding so instead of running like I should of, duh, I looked UP at it. LOL Got the corner of it right in the face, under my eye on my cheekbone. So it is a little purple and cut there. Not as bad as I thought it would be, but yuck anyway! LOL
