HI Sonnet,
Yes he wants me to go straight to 150mgs next time. He said that he
dosen't want to waste time repeating the same dosage with no results. If
150mg works he will keep me on 150mg for 3 rounds with IUI and if no
pregnancy then he will start injectables then but if the first 150mg
round dosen't work we will start injectables sooner or a combination of
injectables with clomid which he said he would talk to me about when the
time comes. He said there are several ways to go.Art has to have a
fertility work up done now which he isn't too thrilled about but will do
what ever it takes.I guess it can be kind of embarassing for men.But
they need to make sure his sperms are good swimmers and that he has a
good count before trying any IUI or IVF with me.They sent me home with a
permission slip for him to sign to start his work up... boy was he
surprised!
Sonnet anytime you want some hot chocolate is fine with me! I love hot
chocolate on cold mornings!Chocolate is the one thing I CAN NOT give
up..lol.
Hope to see you again soon! I would love to meet Denis. You should have
a baby shower or a welcome party for him when the time comes!Good luck
with everything and see you soon.
