Hey all! Crystal> from what I was told it searches for any type of ubstructions....like cysts, fibroids, ect. ANd it checks your uterus to make sure it isn't seperated. Sometimes woman have this and the uterus is divided in half. It also detects where your overies sit...like when I had it done yesterday my technician that was doing the test told me that my right overy sits really high...I asked her what that ment but she wouldn't really tell me anything because she isn't a full doc and isn't really allowed to tell me things. SO I just called my doc for the results and he was with a patient. But he is going to give me a call back defore three om so I will post more then. I will ask him a little more definitly what a Pelvic Ultra Sounds does. I know he was pretty stuck on my having one....plus we are military so we don't pay for any testing done except IVF...so they are quick to do many tests on us! Be back soon......

HEY !!!!! .... just waiting to go to the doctor tomorrow ... : )

Ok so my doctor FINALLY called! lol. I had a pelvic Ultra Sound done.....Everything turns out normal!!! No growths or seperations or anything. So now I just have to wait until I start my period again and on Cycle day three I have to have my blood tested. BUT I was due for my period on Monday adn its still not here. Arg. I get so annoyed when it does that. I obviously would be excited if i was late because of a possible pregnancy but I am not having any signs of being prego so I know thats not it. ARG ARG ARG. lol Now all I have to do is wait on the blood work AND sit and think about the up coming DYE test! Ouch Ouch Ouch. OK gotta get going I have a volleyball game at six and I still haven't made any supper for DH. Poor baby!!! Have a great night ladies!

!

I know what you mean Tiffany, I was suppose to O a couple days ago. I'm still waiting, impatiently. I have been testing since sunday morning and still no positive. My last a/f was may 25th so this would make it cd15 or cd16. Right?? My temps are up and down all week. i'm not sure what's going on anymore. that seperated uterus sounds painful, i'm glad you don't have that. All the Navy ship are coming in today downtown portland to the rose festival. that's pretty exciting to see. when i was single i would go down there to check out the seamen. hehe

morning everyone! My hubby was in Portland this time last year for the rose festival...he is Navy but not a seaman...he works aviation for the navy. Ok anyway your ovulation days should be right on...but you could be like me and every month the exact days you THINK you are ovulating...wait two or three more days! I am always 2 or 3 days off. As for charting temps this is this is my first month of trying that. Actually I am waiting for my cycle to start over....which was supposed to happen monday but I am super late this month, to start taking my temp everyday. You are taking it first thing in the morning right? Before you even get out of bed.....I guess you literally have to open your eyes...roll over and check you temp. That is supposed to give you your most accurate reading. So who knows. Good luck to you though...let us know if you detect a surge. Ok gotta go for now!

i think your right Tiffany, i am probably testing too soon. I O last month on the tenth so maybe my cycles are more like 30 days. and i'm such a lazya** in the mornings, i hit my alarm at least twice before i get up and take my temp, then get out of bed. so that might raise my temp a few points-getting up and wacking the alarm a few times. still no a/f??? and they say no bfp? hmm. well i had a 40 day cycle a couple months ago, and it was horrible. i though oh my god, i'm pregnant. but nope, just late!!!?!?! our bodies are strange. ANDY- how was your appt?? mandi- any news on insurance coverage??

hi ladies !¡!¡! .....so I went to my apt and my cd21 blood test said that prolactin was 22 and progesterone 0.26 ... I thought that it was really bad , but my dr told me that those nunber were because I did not ovulate this month , : ( I thought that he was going to make me do this exams next month to compare ... but no ¡!¡! He said that we are going to start doing NaTurEs JoB ! and , as from next cicle ( 8 days from now ) I´m going to start taking some meds to make me ovulate ( I really don´t know if it is clomid , it should be something like that ) ¡!¡! on cd2 I have to go to an apt to an u/s and then start with the pills and he said that he will give me some shots too , then another u/s on cd14 ¡!¡!¡! I´m really excited ¡!¡! I know that is a long shot thinking that it will work the first month , but the only thing I have is HOPE !!!!!! Finally , after all this months thinking that all that I had was bad luck , finally we have an answer ! : ) ... cristal ...a little question ... as soon as you O you go for your IUI ?? ... mandy ... any side effects on your clomid ??? ....... I´m really happy to be strating to so domething , I know that ovulating and all I still have like only 30 % possibility ... but still... with no ovulation I had 0% possibility ... : )

starting to do something .... sorry I tiped it all wrong .... : )

hi andy, yes as soon as i get my LH surge which happens 24-36 hours before Ovulation, i make an appt for the next day to do IUI. I was just looking at my calender and april I started a/f on the 21st, then may it was the 25th. that's 34 days apart. so maybe i'm not 28 day cycle's anymore. it's different every month. this is crazy. i can't figure it out anymore. i only have three sticks left then i have to go spend another $40. to get another box. this is frustrating.

: ( you´ll see every cent and effort spent will be worth it once we have our babies : ) ...

i know, i keep telling myself that. just that in feb/march my cycle was 28-29 days, april 42 days, may34 days. Before all that it was always 28-30 days. So now i have no idea of when. i'm just geussing it'll go back to normal in which i should be on cycle day 15. have i lost you???? i'm just really impatient and the more days without LH surge the more i get discouraged and think bad thoughts. I NEED ANOTHER VACATION. i wish life was one big vacation. i geuss i'm just really really really anxious!!!!!!!!!!! know what i mean?? so your going to start taking meds to O?? that's good. i hope it works out. i'm suppose to start chlomid in three months if these IUI's don't work naturally... i geuss to better my chances

Aloha all....Crystal!!! Don't get frustrated things are going to work out I promise~ I am the same as you....my cycles are extremely different every month. Last month I had a 35 day cycle...this month (as of today) I am on cd 38! My cycles are never shorter then 35 days but they can be as long as 41 days! That is what Clomid and other meds are for! Medically there are definitly things to help us out so don't get down on yourself! This is a pretty out of the blue question but are you/were you really athletic in the past? I was a four sport athlete in high school and a two sport athlete in college...I didn't start my period until I was 20!!! So according to my doc that is why my cycles are wacky! And I still workout ALOT so its jsut a thought. What are your next options? What meds have you tried? Andy~ Great to hear about all teh advancement! I will send happy pregnancy thoughts your way! This just could be your month! As for me..nothing new....My af was supposed to be here monday but its being annoying as usual. I wish I could let myself think I might be pregnant but I just can't. This has happened WAY to many other times. It will show up...then I can start all over again! At least this time on CD 3 I have more blood work and then its time for the Dye test. Ok gotta get going. Keep your heads up ladies. God wouldn't have made us SOOOO determined for a baby if he didn't plan on gracing us with one!!! It will happen!

ALOHA TIFF!!!!!! what part of Hawaii are you from?? I went to the island of Oahu for my honey moon jan1-6 this year. It was beautiful. we did a grand island tour, oh my gosh, i loved it so much that i want to move there. but DH says YAH RIGHT!!! we swam with a dolphin, went to the polynesian culture center, that was awsome. i got great pics. so your late? i hate that, it's the geussing game, but you seem pretty sure that your not. why are you so sure your not??

Hey! We live on Oahu.....about ten minutes from the Poleynesian Center....Ewa Beach actually...I love it here but miss the mainland soooo much. I am originally from Minnesota....I MISS THE SNOW! lol crazy I know but I do.....Military keeps us here and we just signed on for four more years on the island. SO I guess I better get comfy! My Cycles are always so crazy. We have been ttc for over two years and every tiem I think MAYBE...af rears her ugly head. So I know its gotta be coming..dont' get me wrong I am optimistic that it is going to happen its just I have NO symptoms of being preggo. Blah blah blah story of my life!! lol Where are you from?

do you guys know if clomid makes you gain weight ???

I have heard from only ONE person that it caused them to gain weight...but I have heard from many woman that it can cause bloating so it definitly depends on the person. have you ever been on the shot (birth control) If you have an d you gained weight on that you will be more at risk of gaining from clomid.
