July- Heating up with BFP's
The Infertility ONE Thread
A monthly thread to talk about all of our various journeys through the difficult, trying, and often heartbreaking world of infertility. This thread is a place to chat, vent, get support, cheer each other on, and hopefully occasionally laugh!

June was a crazy month for us - I turned 31, dh was in the hospital, not to be outdone mil was in the hospital the next week, I had the flu and was dead to the world for about 4 days. Everyone's ok. Life was just super crazy there for a while. I'm on cd87 and have been spotting since Monday. 
I was waiting for cd3 to go in for a pre-clomid u/s but when I called the RE's office and told them I haven't had an af since April, they told me I should come in next week. Go figure.
