I have an appointment next week with a reproductive endocrinologist with Baylor. It’s been nine months since I went to the OB\/GYN and he gave me Clomid. I went through seven cycles of Clomid without any success. On the eighth, I noticed that I had a very light, very short period, and I decided to stop and let my body re-regulate. No luck there, either. <\/p>\n
So we’re seeking professional help. I suspect that this will be a frustrating journey, since they’ll have to see what’s wrong first. Probably a lot of testing. Probably a lot of waiting on my body. Or on Graham’s. Or on both of us. And then some hard decisions about how far we want to take this, how far to go before we decide we waited too long, that we’re too old, that a baby may not be in the cards for us. <\/p>\n
I’m not sure we’re there yet. Maybe I’m pregnant now, this last week of my cycle. Maybe I just need a nudge. Or Graham needs something. Or a catheter has better aim than we do on our own. <\/p>\n
I’m a little scared, but there’s nothing to do but go to the appointment and see what the doctor says. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
