Temperatures can predict the future?

***Fertility Issues Discussed***

Okay, well not REALLY predict the future as in your going to get a raise or win the lottery. I'm talking about my temperature charts of my morning, waking, temps. (BBT Chart) When I first started trying to get pregnant my sister told me to take my temp every morning and when it jumps it means I ovulated. Then after a couple months I could possibly see a pattern of my cycles. I didn't listen to her because my cycles were so out of wack anyway I didn't think it would help, and it may or may not had. I started seeing a fertility doctor last July and then really didn't tell me to start then either, so I didn't. A couple of months ago when they put me Clomid, which is suppose to help you ovulate, I started charting my temps. I just finished my 3rd cycle on clomid, with no success, but I could tell that I wasn't pregnant even before my period came because my temperatures were dropping. This was upsetting, but it made the shock of my period better.

So now where does this leave us? Well I'm not 100 % sure. After 10 months of seeing a fertility doctor, countless tests, a surgery, more tests, drugs, drugs that made me crazy at times, I'm still not pregnant and am going to the doctors for a follow up. I go on Wednesday, and am anxious! I've been told that the doctor will look over my cycles (I guess my temp charts) and then discuss what he thinks we should do next. I have a feeling its not going to be another round of Clomid, but hormone injections and then probably and IUI. From what I understand an IUI is where they take his swimmers and directly insert them into my uterus. The other fun part (1st fun part being getting more hormones) is we not get to start paying for procedures. It will suck a lil bit, but it will be worth it in the end. I believe that with having a follow up and learning what to do next that we will have a cycle off drugs for assistance, but I'm believing that it doesn't take our chances down any less to get pregnant this month, the stress will be off so who knows. I'm trying very hard to stay positive. I know that we will be parents one day, and great ones at that.

On a side note, Husband is back to work! He is working stupid hours that keep me up late at night and sleeping late. He goes in late afternoon and gets home early morning around 4. I have a hard time sleeping when he isn't home so I stay up late doing whatever and then go to bed. It works out because they I can sleep most the night with him, but sucks when I have to do things in the morning. Even though his hours suck, he gets paid well and is getting overtime. Which is a nice thing, especially knowing that we more than likely are going to have to pay to get a child. So that takes off one less stress, or makes it smaller at least.
