With AF coming on Tuesday, my husband and I decided the best thing for us to do at this point is go back to the RE and get started on a plan. The thing is, as far as I know I'm ovulating. Tracking pointed towards it, my OPK came back positive, and then 13 days later AF came. I debated for awhile getting started back on meds. If I'm ovulating, what's the point. But my hubby and I decided that we really felt that was best for us.
My cycles are on the longer side (but nowhere near as long as before). I didn't even ovulate last month until cd24 I think. So each cycle that doesn't give me a bfp means I have to wait even longer. Plus, I just want to be under the doctor's watch and care.
When I went to the RE he was so good. Everytime I go I'm just so thankful to have such a good doctor. He did a wonderful job explaining to me what the plan was and what the medicine would actually be doing for me. He even drew me pictures (upside down too lol). I felt such at ease like we had made the right decision.
Today is cd3 and I've already taken my first dose of Femara. I go back next Thursday for an ultrasound to measure my follicles. If all looks right then I'll be taking my Ovidrel shot and get on with the BDing! lol
I feel really hopeful about this cycle. This weekend will probably go by fast and before we know it we'll be back in the 2 week wait. I'm not touching my thermometer this time. It makes me crazy! I'm excited to see what this cycle brings, hopefully a bfp, but it's good to just have a plan again and be under the doctor's care.
