Merry Christmas...and hopefully a happier new year

so, we went to the dr and had an ultrasound and estradiol test on day 15 bc I hadn't gotten a positive OPK yet (started them day 12). well the ultrasound showed, what we thought, was a follicle about 19cm and a nice thick lining...but estradiol was only 125 (last month is was over 600 when we did IUI!) I had a feeling we had missed ov so we did a progesterone test to see...sure enough it showed that I had already ovulated which meant that the "follicle" was actually a cyst. There was some fluid leaking from the cyst and that is most likely what had caused the pain early on. I think, even though we missed it, that the mature follicles were on the left anyway-that will keep me sane if I think that lol.

We are trying clomid, again. it feels like it isn't working but in reality we have only done one IUI using clomid. the first month we didn't use it, the last three we have but had two left-sided ov. We are really hoping that the new year brings new hope and new life. Somewhere around Jan 4th we will, hopefully, try again. *sigh*
