After our tease I like to call it in May, we decided I would go with
Mike to Seattle. He had training for work there for a week and since I
was still looking for a job why not tag along. I always think a
vacation after a loss or hard time in your life is necessary. Time to
clear your mind before jumping back in. We had a good time and even had
the chance to meet up with some family I haven't seen in years.
After our trip we decided to jump right back in. Why wait any longer?
We know the "cocktail" it took to get pregnant lets try again.
Well, June was a bust! Same "cocktail" no result.
In July we decided to sit down with our doctor and figure out what is
next. Do we jump into IVF? If so, we will need to take some time off
and I will need to take this job hunt seriously because IVF is not
cheap. It would cost about $10,000 to do the whole procedure and even
then it is not guaranteed.
His plan was for me to have a laparoscopy. This will be an outpatient
surgery and with a little microscope the doctor
will go in through my belly button and take a look at my tubes. He is
making sure I don't have endometriosis or growths that could be
preventing me from getting pregnant.
He also assured us that since we got pregnant once, IVF will not be in
our course of action because he knows we can get pregnant. We have
good chances :)
Laproscopy went well! Nothing was found and we can continue with the injections.
My goal for this journal is to let others struggling through infertility know that you are not alone. A lot of people go through this battle keeping it a secret from friends and family. I want my journal to remind you that you are not alone and what you may be experiencing millions of others are as well.
