The battle over PCOS, being "clomiphene resistant", FSH injections, metformin, IUI, weight issues and my husband's "very poor" sperm and medical issues to successfully conceive our baby!

Testing, testing (C5;CD15)

I did get a phone call from hubby yesterday.

As soon as the phone rang I knew it couldn't be all bad news.

"Dr has given me at least another 6 weeks" he said. His levels had only gone up by 100 in the last 4 weeks, and he's got another 300 to play with (so to speak) so we (thankfully) have one natural cycle left which is a huge relief. Seems that every cloud has a silver lining (and in my case, as soon as the cloud clears - damn ovaries...)

Hubby is also now at the hospital having his semen analysis done again. After being off his meds for such a long time we're hoping with all hope that the results are better than last time. We won't know until next week however, so again - the waiting game, is what is going to do my head in.

I'm not at work today - I just couldn't face it. I am surprised at how I even made it through yesterday. I was in tears most of the day that I closed the door to my office so people couldn't see my puffy red eyes.

When I finally got home last night, I came in to see a double bunch of pink and orange tulips on the kitchen bench. I just burst into tears again (couldn't help it) and hubby walked in saying "No no no no no... they were supposed to make you happy!". Told him it was the sweetest thing he could have done for me, and he just held me for what seemed like an eternity.

So, now I'm up to a 100IU of Puregon daily, and praying it will make all the difference...
