Well, I have GREAT news!! If you are close to me or Richie then you probably already know. We have been trying to get pregnant for over a year now with no progress. So we decided last month after taking the longest dose of fertility treatment ever to stop trying until all of the chaos is over in a few months with Richie's son and court about that. So this month my stomach started hurting really bad and I was so scared because I really thought something may be wrong. Well, I went to the doctor Monday and found out that the medicine made me stimulate the growth of a follicle and it just didn't release the egg causing a huge hemorrhagic ovarian cyst. So the pain has gotten much better now that I know what is wrong and I am on birth control for three weeks to make the cyst go away but after that we can start trying again and now we know what dose of medicine it will take for me to produce an egg. After I take the meds I will go in for another ultrasound and if I have grown a follicle then my wonderful doctor will give me a shot to make my body release the egg so we actually have a great chance of getting pregnant soon!!! That pain in my stomach really is a GOOD thing!!!!
