I got pregnant in May (28th) with 100mg of clomid, IUI, gonal F, and Trigger shot. I had an etopic pregnancy that was found at about 9 weeks. We had a shot to absorb the baby shortly afterwards. Oct 28th we had surgery to remove the remains from my right ovary.
I knew i was having surgery so we stopped trying, stopped dieting, and stopped stressing. I came off all meds because of surgery and just tried to RELAX! In November right after surgery I got pregnant. I found out on a retreat we did in the army in Decemeber. I am a firm believer that when its your time it will happen. You just need to relax. I dont know about everyone but for me fertility treatment stressed me out. It wasnt romantic having my husband give me a shot in the butt, or saying hey tonight we HAVE to have sex because in ovulating. It took a lot of romance out. But we did it for a year, and if it wasnt for the surgery and me saying oh well i cant be on meds till Dec I might as well relax and eat whatever I want. lol.

I wish you the best of luck with trying. Just dont let it take over your life. Ive heard so many stories were people decide to adopt because they've tried for so many years and as soon as they do and relax a child comes along. Just stay healthy, it will happen oneday. If not their are great children out there that need help, need our support. (Im hoping oneday when my husband is out of the army we can adopt a 2nd child, give one a chance with good parents and not in a foster home!)
