updated infertility journey

lets see where to begin. i guess i could begin with that mike and i have always known that we wanted kids. even before we got married we knew we wanted them but we didnt want to have them before we got married so we decided (yes i asked his opinion about me starting birthcontrol before we got married. i just didnt want to hide anything from him and not only that i felt like once we got engaged it wasnt just about me anymore. it was about mike and i ) that i would go on that depo shot (birthcontrol shot ) and let me tell you to this day i do not know if it was that shot that made things worse. i dont think it was what started it but i do think it may have made things worse. i was told that it could take up to 3 months to a year for that shot to work itself out of your system. so like three months before our wedding i took the last of the depo shot. i should say that mike and i talked about it and decided that i would take my last one three month before our wedding because we was hoping that we would conceive a baby on our wedding date but that didnt work out but that started our long journey thru infertility. (truthfully i had always thought i had something wrong even as a teenager. i can remember talking to some friends once when i was like 17 or 18 one and telling them that i have always felt like i wasnt going to be able to get pregnant. the reason why i always felt like that is because i never knew when my period would show up. thats right i have never had a normal period before). after we had been married a year things got a little once with my periods (trying not to gross you out lol) but if you are a female you will have some idea what i am talking about haha. i had went to this one doctor around that time and she told me that i would need to see someone else. basicly told me she couldnt help. now i was having more then one period a month and she couldnt help me fix that. after we had been married two years i finally got the help i needed. i found out that i have hypothyroidism and pcos.  and then in 2007 or 2008 we started the clomid. when that didnt work we moved on to femara and that didnt work. so the doctor i was seeing sent me to a infertility specialist in va (we was fixing to move to va for six months) well all that doctor wanted to do was do another round of clomid and then talked about doing the infertility shots. i felt like that doctor didnt want to listen to me really when i had told him over and over that the clomid didnt work. now that i think back to that time. i think when i went in to have a ultrasound done to check and see if my ovaries was starting to make follicles i think i went on day 21 of that cycle and that isnt right. i should have went earlier then that. unless my memory isnt correct on the time frame lol. anyways. i told mike that i wasnt ready at that time to do the infertility shots (this was 2010). i think i was a little scared to do the shots. i was scared to learn that they didnt work on me. in 2011 we had talked and talked that we was ready to do the shots. that i need to stop running from my fears and just face them. and here we are in 2013 i have already had three rounds of clomid and infertility shots. and just learnt today that i finally ovulated after nearly nine years. still got some waiting to do to see if we became pregnant this cycle or if we will the next cycle. i think we will only be able to try for another 2 ro 3 rounds of infertility treatments. as mike is getting out of the army and we will be moving this year but we are not going to give up. maybe where ever he gets a job we will have enough money to continue to try if we dont get pregnant before we move from here (no we are not living in VA anymore but in texas. )
well that is a update version of our journey so far. maybe in a few months we will be having another update on it all.
