I thought it would be good to give a little background about me. I just turned 31. I have been married to Adam for 4 years and we have a beautiful son, Noah. He just turned 3. Adam and I started trying to have our 2nd child back in March 2007. After 10 months of trying I went to my OB to get some help. He started me on Clomid. I was on that for 3 months and nothing happened. I then had bloodtests and an ultrasound. Through the ultrasound, they thought I had PCOS. But, later I found that wasn't true. I had an HSG, where they flushed out my tubes. That was normal. Finally I opted for a laparoscopy to determine if I have endometriosis. I did and it was a mild to moderate case. The doc lasered it off and sent me to a fertility clinic to get more help. There we began to do IUI's w/clomid. We did 3 of those. After the 3rd one didn't work we have now decided to do IVF. Something we thought we would never do. But the want for a baby is making us do whatever we have to do.
Some say, you have a wonderful child you should be happy. That is true. I'm very happy that I have Noah but the want for a bigger family doesn't go away. They say secondary infertility can be harder than those who have 1st time infertility. I dont' know what is harder, I just know it is an emotional roller coaster that I'm trying to survive everyday. ..
