Today was appoitment day!

I thought I would write a quick note even though I am exhausted!  Today was our first appointment with our fertility specialist.  He as very hopeful and eager to get things started.  I think I created all of these worries in my head when I just needed to relax and wait to see what he had to say.  He is going to have us continue with Clomid only he is going to start us at 150 mg.  We pretty much agree my doctor was wasting my time with the previous Clomid by not raising the dosage and not seeing if I was even ovulating while taking it. I am excited his Clomid procedure is different.  He is also giving me Metformin which is supposed to help Clomid work better by controlling my blood sugar.  I am not diabetic but your insulin levels are messed up when you have PCOS and he believes this will help the Clomid be more effective.  He believes if all works well I can be pregnant with in the first few cycles.  I hope so!  I have new hope that I may be a mom sooner then later!  However, if this doesn’t work he talked to us about alternative options such as IVF (in vitro). I will write more soon but I am exhausted so I am going to go rest on the couch for a bit before bed.   Good night world! J
