January 1, 2001

Hello ladies! Congrats to our newly pg folks .. yay!!!!! I have everything crossed that this will be the best 9 months of your life.

I must declare that Femara is my new friend. I am really enjoying this fertility drug. I took 3 tablets on cd 3 and by cd 9 had tons of EWCM ... way better quality than I have ever had. Today is cd 11 and the results from my RE visit this morning are echoing my thoughts. On my left ovary I had a follicle at 20mm and on my right ovary I had one at 15mm. My lining was 10mm (most I have ever had on cd 11 was 8mm). Today is only cd 11 ... the RE had to laugh at my response since 3 tablets well below the lowest dose hehehe.

While I am excited about my response I still am not holding out a lot of hope due to the position of my uterus.

I would like to pose a question to all those women who read my diary. Have any of you gotten pg (I just mean a +hpt) with a retroverted, retroflexed uterus???

If anyone has it would likely change my views on this cycle since I have never heard of anyone getting pg in this situation.

So I will post my daily RE results for the next week on my talk to me board incase anyone is interested.

The olympics started yesterday and I am hoping that Team Canada does well in their competitions. Go Canada Go!

We are leaving for London England on Feb 18 so I won't be posting until I return on Feb 27th (my birthday!!). I would love to hear if anyone has suggestions of where to go and what to see in England. Thanks ladies!

Courtney
