hello ladies, my name is Kathleen and I would love to join the board. I have been trying to conceive my first baby since Jan 2005. It has been a long up and down ride, and I used to post on a TTC board but had to take a break as I was getting WAY too obsessed! I have been seeing a new doctor and stepped up the IF help, so I was hoping to join the board and get/provide some support!

I don't have a very exciting IF/TTC story, just many many months of failed TTC without any real explanation. BUT I am hopeful because I just had surgery to remove two fibroids from my uterus and am having a follow-up appt with my RE on Monday. I think the plan is to have an IUI next cycle. RE told DH after my surgery that he thought the fibroids could have been acting like an IUD, so I am *very* hopeful that we might finally have some success this year.

I am looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Cheers!

Hi Kathleen! Glad to see another newbie. I have actually been lurking for awhile now but this is my first day of posting. I am 25, soon to be 26 living in Indiana. My DH and i have been trying for over about a year and a half and have been seeing a specialist for 4 months. Our IF problems are with me. We are still determining all that is wrong but we just found out i have a blocked tube. We just began using a few meds and reacted really well and they were very hopefull that this month was the one. However AF arrived today and due to the cysts caused by the meds we are forced to take a month off and possibly fix my bad tube. My heart was broken once again by the thought of a month passing by with no chance for baby.

Thanks for letting me vent and look forward to future advice and support!
