Time for a break ......with procedures of course. Cue the ovulation tests and timed intercourse. So. Much. Fun.
May 2014 - Hubby suggests visiting a fertility clinic for IVF....to seek options.
June 2014 - The fertility specialists suggest IVF w/ICSI. Can we afford this!?!?!?
July 2014 - Another semen analysis shows my hubby has 25 sperm total! WTH!?!? No other option...on to IVF.
August 2014 - Sonohystogram and Mock Transfer performed. Three large polyps found on my ovaries. Sweet!
August 2014 - Hysteroscopy to remove the polyps (my first surgery ever! I was terrified). Of course a hot doctor would get to operate on my hoo-ha! Lining: clean and clear!
September 28th, 2014 - IVF retrieval 14 eggs retrieved! 9 total embryos! Hubby's sperm count: 12 million! Kind of a big deal!
