I know, I know, I am totally late updating this thing. Ive just been really busy.
I went to my post op appointment with Dr. Synn on the 9th and he said that everything went well during the surgery. He showed me pictures of my beautifully open tubes and nice uterus. He also showed me before and after pics of my ovaries. The before pics of my ovaries shows them being big, round and shiny...like golf balls. Well, that wasnt good. That meant that I had a crap load of cysts in my ovaries due to PCOS (yeah, I dont have pcos...right Dr. Shebelut, thanks a lot for wasting my time). So, Dr. Synn said that he did ovarian drilling. Say what? Never heard of such a thing. Well, it is exactly as it sounds, he drilled holes in my ovaries!! I guess it is supposed to help the egg release from there. Ok, whatever you say, hope it works. So after showing me pictures, he said that I have 3 options at this point. The first one is that I could go back on clomid. Well, we tried that and nothing happened so I said no thanks. The second option is to start on injections and to start IUIs (intrauterine inseminations)...that sounds good. The third and last option is to do IVF (in vitro fertilization)...dont think we are quite ready for that just yet.
So it looks like when I come back from my trip to Montreal, we are going to start injections and IUIs. Im excited about that. Im in Montreal right now visiting with my beautiful new nephew Liam who was conceived by IUIs so I know that they work. I dont think that Mike is really excited about it mainly because of his part in the process. We might try injections and the natural way of conceiving at first, we will see. We need to talk about it some more.
The 9th was our one year wedding anniversary. I still cannot believe that it has already been a year! Its crazy how quickly time flies.
Oh and I will post pitcures of my beautiful nephew as soon as I can! He is seriously so cute, I just want to put him in my pocket and take him back to cali with me. Its amazing how you can love someone you just met so completely.
