Day 2...yeah, that's right!

No that's not a typo...today is day 2 of cycle 3! Last night I got my period...on my own!! No Provera, nothing. Right now, this is almost better news to me than a positive pregnancy test. It's progress, at least and means we're doing something right. I told Troy last night and I sat there trying to think of what might be wrong with me. I thought maybe I had some how gotten pregnant and was having a miscarriage, or my uterus was falling out, or lots of other completely off the wall things. Troy looks at me and says "I don't know why you automatically assume the rest, you just got your damn period!" I cried last night and then after that I laid in bed with a goofy smile on my face. I'm so happy. I realize this doesn't mean I'm going to ovulate this month, but it does mean something good is happening with my hormones and we are getting closer to where we need to be.

My only issue now is when I tried getting my prescriptions Wal-Mart told me I couldn't get my Provera until the 31 and the Clomid on the 3. Which at the time wasn't a big deal, but I have to take the Clomid days 5-9 and the 3 will be day 6! I'm going to call the doctor tomorrow, I have to make my Day 21 and 28 appointments anyway, so I'll see what she wants to do then. I might just have to get them from a different pharmacy.

I'm trying to remain cautiously optimistic, but I'm definitely crossing my fingers for something good this month! Thank you to everybody for your support and prayers through this...it means a lot to Troy and I both. I don't think we could make it through this on our own without our support system. While infertility on any level sucks, I feel fortunate that (with any luck) we won't have to try much longer. I hear all kinds of stories about women who tried for years to get pregnant, or women who never did get pregnant and I can't even fathom how difficult that is. Troy and I have had our ups and downs but I count our blessings every day.
