Finally, a sigh of relief!

Today, February 11th 2009, marks exactly one year since we found out we had a miscarriage. It's kinda ironic that it also happened to be the day that I went in for the HSG (dye test). I didn't make the correlation until I was on the phone with my aunt and she said "I haven't forgotten about your appointment on the 11th. I am praying for you." Then she mentioned something about my grandparents anniversary, which I had always known was Feb. 11th but it wasn't until then that it hit me that the 11th was here and we were actually in the month of Feb. It was sad news I had to deliver on their anniversary.

Anyway, here we are one year later and we have finally finished the tests that all show we are both fertile and should have no trouble conceiving on our own. I went through a series of blood work, Sergio did the semen analysis and then the dye test which showed there was no blockage and no funny shape to my uterus that might cause a problem.

So I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Sergio stated his confidence saying "I knew there was nothing wrong." But I could tell before each result came back he was nervous and anxious to know the answers. The doctor did give me 50mg of Clomid to start in March. Then I have to go in to get some blood work done towards the end of my cycle to tell if the medicine is working properly or if I need to be on a higher dose. He said that we may get pregnant on our own without the meds this month because some women actually do within months of the dye test because it can "clean or rinse" out the tubes. We will see.

Either way, please try and hold the monthly "well are you?" questions. We still plan on waiting to make any news of that sort public until after we had a first ultrasound. Well I will blog some more later on. Thanks for all the prayers, they have been answered so far!
