Infertility...INfertility...inFERTILITY.
I better get used to that word, because it is about to become very REAL again.
Mike and I decided yesterday at the Dr's recommendation to move forward with infertility treatments to try to conceive number two. After much thought and a long conversation, we decided to go ahead jump in feet first. This was a huge decision for us, and it was made for both emotional and financial reasons.
I am not sure if I have mentioned it here before, but last go round infertility really took a toll on our marriage. It was harder than we ever expected. Mike was dedicated to all of it, but he would have liked to step back and maybe take things a little slower. I however wanted a baby ASAP. I guess you can say I was a little
We are finally at a point where we are both ready to try for number two. Surprisingly, Mike was ready before I was this time. We are not going to jump right back into IVF or even IUI. I am not 100% sure we will ever go that route again. For now we are just going to start with a few rounds of injectables and LOTS of prayer. :)
We just made this decision on Friday, and our first cycle starts NEXT WEEK!!!
EEEEKKKKK!!
I can hardly believe it. I am excited and terrified all at the same time. Here is to hoping that this road is A LOT shorter and easier than last time.
I will update about this again middle of next week after I meet with the Dr and figure out the specifics.

Oh I just found your blog and I had my own struggle with secondary infertility (due to PCOS) and I remember that huge decisions to start doing meds. Wow it's scary, exciting... everything!
I also remember the toll it took on our marriage. By cycle 11 I remember just dreading 'having' to have sex again - but demanding it because I didn't want that entire ordeal of pills and shots to go to waste. It's tough... but WORTH IT in the end. :)
I'll be checking in on you! Prayers your way!!
Good luck, I'll be thinking of you both!
good luck with everything!
