Not happening this month...

I had acupuncture today, I did ask her about Cold uterus, I described a few things and while she was not totally convinced that I had cold uterus, and had no major comment about the fluttering I experience. She decided she would treat me for cold uterus anyways, we did our normal after O pins and then she agve me what she called (I believe) a moxie treatment, where she took this cigar looking thing, heated it and then put it on the top of my pins on my stomach area and heated them. Let me tell you it warmed me from the inside out and it felt soooo good. She also took my pulse, alot of people beleive their pulse can tell you if you are pregnant, mine was weak. I could tell she was trying to make me feel a little hope that she could be wrong, but her guess was NOPE. She asked a few questions about my next cycle and we talked about me asking if I could take some DHEA. I plan to ask that at my Dr. Appt.

I had a weird day today... I am soo tired and just emotionally drained. I am started to feel my turn will never come. I hate giving 100% to something just to fail over and over again. It sucks.

On a up note a friend of mine got her BFP today, I do not want to mention her name b/c she has not annouced yet... but she reads my blog and some others who read my blog know her, CONGRATS *** I am so happy for you. But I am going to be honest (Sorry ***) when she emailed me to tell me she got a + test, my first thought was, "that is never going to happen for me", I wish I was not so negative. But I am just feeling down about the process...

As for symptoms, only mild cramps and some pulling and pinching, no sore boobs, no feeling sick, I am tired but I have not been sleeping to well, b/c I can not breathe, so I am up several times a night taking my inhaler.

IF sucks.

One more day till my RE appt, and knwoing the next steps, maybe that is what i need to get excited.

I know it's hard to stay positive but try and not get too bogged down in everything. Keep your eyes on your end goal. It will be your turn soon.

You asked what my diagnosis is. Well, to start I am about to turn 37 so I am of advanced maternal age, my fsh is technically normal but borderline high at 9.5, and I have a low antral follicle count which is a predictor of diminished ovarian reserve. Then, there is my husband who has lowish motility, around 35% and 0% morphology. If it wasn't for my age we probably would have waited longer before moving on to IVF.
