A little background

Guess I should have started off with this:

My name is Michelle Hogg & have been married to my bestfriend Richard for 3.5 years, our family includes our two furbabies Chevy (7y/o) Bichon shih tzu & our baby Bailey (2.5y/o) yellow lab, no kids yet, but we have been trying for 3years.

April 2006 - Had my IUD removed no BFP

July 2007 referral from Family doctor to go to the fertility clinic

September 2007 - Saw fertility clinic

December - was diagnosed with mild case of P.C.O.S. (poly cystic ovarian syndrome) doc put me on a month of birth control to shrink the cyst I had, and it was confirmed that the cyst was shrinking and we were given a Rx for Clomid, to help me ovulate.

January 2008 started clomid CD3-7

February 2008 - Got our very first BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We were thrilled, so excited

March 25/08 - went in for a routine 12 week ultrasound, the tech was unable to see a heartbeat, we were devasted

April 4/08 - had my D & C to clean my uterus out. Was advised to wait the 2 months before triying again & to allow ourselves to heal.

July 2008 - started on clomid again

August 2008 - To our surprise another BFP!!! Again thilled but very cautious.

November 25 2008 - Went in for routine 19week ultrasound and everytthing looked great Rich & I went home & decided tyo go make our first baby purchase and bought the stroller. The following day recieved a call from my doctor to come in right away, I was sooo scared. Turns out the baby had very low amniotic fluid and was not going to survive. we met with the emeg OBGYN at the hospital that night, and was told the same thing but wanted to send us for a detailed ultrasound, so went went home & tried to process all of this.

Dec 4/08 - Our baby had a different plan, I went into labor at 2am & at 9:10pm our baby boy Connor was born, weighing 10.6oz and was 9inches long (soo tiny) and at 9:15pm he passed away.

March 2009 - Got autopsy results back from Connor's birth, & got the shock of our life. Turns our baby was a baby GIRL! we were SHOCKED, but she was perfectly healthy she just came to early! But we were given the go ahead to start TTCing again so here we are on CD 10.

Month one

Well here we are again,

We are trying for the 3rd time in a year to get a BFP. We had a miscarriage March 2008 & then I had Connor on Dec 4/09 she was born way to early.

I started on my clomid March 22/09 as per the doctors instruction taking it day 3-7. We will be 'trying' from day 10-18. I will be going bloodwork on April 9/09 to see if the clomid forsure worked then we will test.

Fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!
