Hi Tara,
I feel exactly as you do. I've told my hubby that if we can't get pregnant he is to pay for me to have my boobs done! I say that like that will make me feel better?!?
Anyway, we had another semen analysis done and this time it came back at 29 million!! Very good news. I called my gyno to see if we could do a higher dosage of clomid and she told me that it was "out of her hands" since I had gone to see the RE. She said his recommendation was either "gonadatropin" or "genotropin"---I couldn't hear her clear enough--which is bad because the first one is for men with low sperm counts and the second one is human growth hormone! I'm very confused because the RE initially (before getting 1st semen analysis back) said that I'd have no problem getting preggers on a higher dose of Clomid. I've called the RE's office and OF COURSE had to leave a message--so I'm just waiting on them to call back.
It's so frustrating, especially when I see my friends preparing to become mother's. My best friend recently went off of BC and had her first period like clockwork (if you remember, I've not had a period since stopping BC). Another friend is getting a bigger car in preparation for motherhood.
My husband and I've talked and at this point (who knows how we'll feel in 5 years) IVF just isn't financially worth it. It costs a lot of money and my feeling on it is that we'd spend ALL of this money trying to get pregnant, get pregnant and then have NO money to support the child!! I just don't want to bring a child into the world and not be able to give it everything that I had and more. Don't get me wrong, we're both fairly successful in our careers--but I just don't want to blow through savings and then have something happen to one of us.
Guess I'm venting too huh? I'm so sorry you're having a rough time. I am very glad though, that I've found someone to talk to as I know NO ONE that is going through what we are. I hope you have a great week
