back to CD1

It has finally arrived :) So weird being happy for seeing the witch, usually it comes with such sadness but not this time!


Now the decisions for the month.... to go completely natural with just acupuncture or to also try with the clomiphene?? My acupuncturist thinks I shouldn't as having done so many cycles using clomiphene in the past isn't good for me. But I will be guttered if I have another long cycle again - not only does it mean my eggs won't be healthy but also that it reduces my chances of trying because the months roll into each other. As it is, people on "normal" cycles have only 12 chances a year - with me its less!!! I want it to be my turn so badly!!!


I have been reading "The Infertility Cure" by Randine Lewis - lots of good points raised in there in regards to western treatment. My acupuncturist believes my inbalances are related to thyroid function, kidney yin and spleen qi. The book has some dietary do's and don'ts related to them so im going to try real hard to follow this. I am also started some supplements so hopefully these will all be of help.


We are now officially past 2 years of officially trying, month 25. I can't believe it hasn't happened yet. Please let this month be my turn, please please please xx
